《Brother's Best Friend Is My Child's Father 》全部章節：第 81 章 - 第 90 章

I rubbed my palms against each other, heaving a quiet breath to steady my mind as I approached the room. The door was closed and the path to the room was quiet, but I was deeply relieved that the attacker had now been caught. Dominic was definitely the smart guy. The plan worked out just as we hoped it would. His team was also pretty swift and they caught him before he could escape at all. Adrian must be really excited to see the face of the attacker after losing the fight to him the last time they crossed paths. The door opened just as I grabbed the doorknob. I saw Dominic sitting in front of the attacker and Adrian sitting next to him, closer to the window side. And then Dominic's team stood behind the attacker, ready to attack him if he tried to do anything funny. “Has he said anything yet?” I asked, the door clicking shut behind me as I walked towards Dominic, spotting the blood on the face of the man. “No, he hasn't.” Dominic whispered back. It felt like everyone had been com

As soon as Dominic ended the call, he cleared his throat and shared the feedback with us.“They couldn't find Alex in his office,” he said, his gaze roaming over Elena's face, studying her reaction to his words like he needed it to determine his next decision. “They searched some other places in the hospital, but they didn't find him.”Elena gently slapped her forehead, averting her gaze to keep her mind sane. If anything wanted this process to be sped up, it would be Elena.Dominic's mind felt busy until his eyes met mine. He nodded slowly before walking towards me. His right palm rested on my shoulder as he gave me an instruction.“Go ahead and search Alex's office,” he said. “Go with some of your men. Make sure you search everything in his office.”I held his gaze as he said those words, my mind registering the details of the mission.“Make sure you find something,” he said, dropping his palm from my shoulder as he walked towards Elena. “Anything that connects to Alex should not be

“What is the new plan?” Elena's voice awoke something strange in me, driving me to pick up my device immediately. I dialed the contact of my team leader, quickly giving him a new order.“Know the famous restaurant close to the hospital premises?” I asked, and he replied in the affirmative. “Inform your team about this new order. Find your way to the restaurant. It's Alex's next destination.”As soon as he heard that, he paid more attention to my words. He must have continued a quiet search on Alex's exact location before I gave him a ring. The way his curiosity increased when I spoke about his next destination was undeniable.“Check every entry and exit way,” I ordered. “Make sure there is no way unfamiliar to you. Monitor the spots where the security cameras are placed and keep everything recorded and monitored.”“Noted, boss,” he responded over the phone. “I will inform every member of my team to show up and get this done.”As soon as he mentioned those words, I ended the call and d

Every time panic visited my mind, I kicked it out with the words Dominic said to me before I left the room. He told me that all he needed from me was my trust. I could give him that. It wasn't quite easy, but it was doable. A few minutes before 8pm, I was already at the restaurant. Red Lobster. It was as active as ever, with lights beaming in every direction. Customers were going in and out in large numbers. It was definitely a five-star restaurant. I waited in my car, glancing at every corner so I could know when Alex had arrived. It was almost time, and he must be on his way. I hadn't seen his car or seen his face. He definitely wasn't waiting for me inside the restaurant. That gave me a moment to take deep breaths and calm the tension building up inside my head. Some minutes later, I decided to step out of my car. I came down, carefully watching my surroundings for any sign of abnormalities. It was quieter outside, and I couldn't afford to stay in my car and get attacked by a st

I held his gaze as he spoke over dinner in the restaurant. Everything looked peaceful, except my mind. I was waiting to spot any abnormality so I could raise an alarm quickly.Trying to stay calm and composed was a tug of war inside my head. He could go ahead and praise my ability to listen to people’s rants, but that wasn’t the actual case.“I’m so glad I picked this restaurant,” he said, relaxing his back but keeping his gaze on my face like he wanted me to tell my story next and keep the vibe active. But I stayed quiet and only gave a nod.We resumed eating and for the next few minutes, no one said anything to the other. I didn’t know what to say. I couldn’t tell if it could ruin the plans Dominic already had in mind. I just had to act according to the script.“Maya.” He suddenly called the name and his eyes darkened. My heart jumped out of my chest, but I caught it in time. I heaved a deep breath and pretended to sneeze so he wouldn’t notice my anxiety.“What about Maya?” I asked
