Tucking his kids in the back seat, Alex entered his car and called Liam. He's been curious about how the raid went but this new information he received from his dad has taken over his train of thought.

Liam finally answered his call as he walked out of his captain's office. "Why didn't you pick up my call earlier?" He asked as he got to his desk.

"Talking to my dad, how did it go?"

Liam nodded. "It went well. We got them all, and no one escaped. We also confiscated all the drugs in their hold."

"That's good news. Have you gotten any information from them?"

Liam shook his head. "That's the problem. No one is talking. They're all quiet."

"They're probably scared."

"Still, we're trying to get information from them. We caught them red-handed, there's nothing they can do to get themselves out of it."

"I saw what happened between you and my brother. That girl that came between you two..."Elena shook her head. "Don't worry, we've solved the matter and as it turns out, I and your brother are still married."Andrea's mouth fell open in shock. "What?""He never took it to court. He threw it into the ocean."Andrea blinked and looked away still in shock. "Wow. That brother of mine."Elena nodded. "I know, right? Though no one has to know, especially our enemies."Andrea equally nodded. "Talking about enemies, the main reason I came here was to tell you that that girl that came between the both of you wasn't ordinary, it was planned."Elena furrowed her brows in confusion. "Planned? What do you mean?""I knew I saw your mother in that event but it wasn't that clear. After you guys left, I followed

    Cora phoned Brian excessively but nothing and it bothered her. She wondered why he was ignoring her and it infuriated her.She sucked from a straw the coffee she ordered and leaned back against the chair. Looking at the door at any sudden chime of the bell expecting Brian to walk in.She sighed since deep down she knew he won't come. She messaged him too but of course, he should also not give a damn about her messages.She shudder to wonder why he was being that way toward her or did he find out things about her. Did he investigate who she is and ended up left in the lurch? It had to have been the circumstance.She groaned realizing she was failing. It's not as if she lied that much.

I'm wondering how long you'll be back with the groceries. You could have just let me do the job."Elena chuckled, taking slow steps. "I guess. That will be after I slowly get used to getting someone to buy my groceries. I'm already out though, I'm just going to my car.""Okay."Elena nodded and hung the call-up. She looked at one of the guards. "The car?""Henry is bringing it." The guard informed.Elena nodded and stood as she waited.Just as immediately, she instinctively ducked and yelped at the sound of a gunshot hitting the glass doors. "Oh, God."

"I've told you, Jaguar, bring him to me instead. How hard could that be?""Well, boss, it wouldn't be due to friendly conversation. If I'm gonna bring him here, it will be out of duress. I just wanna be sure if that's what you want."The boss gave him a blank look, his mind going to different places as he pondered on the statement, then he let out a wry chuckle. "I need information from him, Jaguar. He's the only way right now to know what's going on out there. I hate the fact that I know nothing.""We can force things out of him..."The door suddenly opened, causing the boss to look and Jaguar to turn toward it. They were both surprised at who decided to visit."You don't have to," Andrew noted with a smirk written on his face.The boss furrowed his brows in confusion. "And what does that mean, Andrew?
