Lia was worried. Someone was following her. She made sure of that.She dove into a clothes shop and that person followed her in. This shop had two entrances, this is what she knew.So she snuck out of the other. She had a few precious seconds to get out of there. And if she couldn't use that time, she would be found.Lia felt her heart beat faster and faster. Almost like bursting out of her chest.She saw there was nothing outside for her self-defense. Only some mannequins. Lia used her new makeup knowledge. She took the wig from the mannequin and put it on. The most important thing was to make herself completely different from her usual self.She wore a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. She looked around and found a dress.She put it on. It was good that this was the backside of the shop and it had an alley that was normally visited by cats and dogs.She then wore an apron that was on the ground. Now she was pretty much against it. Who knew how dirty it was? But she was scared. She did
Lia didn't talk to Aster till they came to his company. She then watched him change the look of his car while he passed through the tunnel.He pressed a button and the number plates rotated. The color of the car changed and most importantly, its exterior changed.No one could have thought that it was a comfortable Comfort car and not a sports car."You give me surprises every day.""Each other," he replied.She kept looking behind to see if there was a tail.Lia was nervous. She acted well when she was put in the spot but she knew now how much of a danger she was in.If something went wrong, she would be in a dire situation.And she would have brought the danger to her family too."Come on. Let's go in."Aster had parked the car in the innermost layer of the basement in his company building.Lia dodnt know that this car would be scrapped later to remove all traces.Aster didnt tell her anything and took her inside his exclusive elevator.This elevator didnt go to his office but to a r
Marvin stopped that thought there. She wasn't ready to face the whole truth. They shouldn't tell her till they find the whole truth. There was no need to irritate her with this news. She was already facing many things on her own and she deserved some slack.Marvin put down his phone and frowned. The things that were happening seemed illogical but they were happening one after other. How could there be no connection?He felt that there was something he was ignoring.Something was really wrong.How come they were targeting Lia blatantly now? And not before? Maybe they weren't to kidnap Lia but to talk?He got up."Catch them soon. Don't be late. They are in danger."Marvin ran out. How could he miss this?If they wanted to harm Lia, they wouldn't have waited and she couldn't have run away. They definitely didn't want to capture her.He just hoped that this lead wouldn't cut here.Marvin reached Lia's old house and found it empty.They went away.These people were really so alert that
Aster followed Marvin like a puppy. He had no idea where they were going and what they were doing. But he knew to act like a follower to Marvin.If you don't know how to do something, just act like you are nailing it.That's what Aster believed at that moment.Marvin watched the people coming and going in the casino for a minute and then got up to leave.He took Aster to the other entrance and left there."We are going to get changed and come back later. You eat something and be ready, okay?"Aster was hungry already. He hadn't eaten anything before flying and during flying.He was starving and Marvin's orders were like rain in the desert for him."Okay," He smiled looking forward to the food in the hotel.Bit Marvin took him to a villa."This is our house. No one is staying here now. You can live in the first room on the first floor. That room will have all the necessities. And the ingredients are in the kitchen. You can cook yourself. Or if you want, I'll ask someone to cook for you
Aster was sitting in an open room. It was somewhat different. The room was not a room but more of a gallery.Aster was brought here by Marvin. They had dressed in fine suits without a hair out of place. They looked like they were about to walk the red carpet.And to his surprise, everyone present here looked like supermodels. He didn't know what was the deal here."Ah, boy from the Winters family, welcome."You would have thought that some old man called Marvin but it was a teenager. He was younger than Jake.And he called Marvin boy. That was really funny."Yes, Uncle Al."He nodded. It looked like cosplay and roleplay."And you must be the second Brooks, I met your brother. Good guy. Tell my name, no one would dare embarrass you.""Sire, thank you."Aster didn't know what else to say.He just acted like a good younger kid."So Uncle Al, who is the promoter today?"Marvin was the polar opposite of Aster. He asked questions."That, it should be the kid from Roger family. Keep an eye o
"You married my niece? Without asking me?"Marvin decisively rolled his eyes."first point, she is my cousin. Not your niece. Second, why would he ask you to marry her? He needs to ask me."Albert did not pay attention to Marvin."You better be best to my niece. Otherwise, you won't like to find the result.""Great, you are threatening!"Albert now glared at Marvin."Would you shut up? I'm trying to have a talk now. This is really wrong. Marvin, you should keep quiet when elders are talking.""You and me, we met only six times. So don't try to act close. Also, stop acting and tell me your news. You definitely know something."Albert now looked like the leader he was.His aura changed."It's from the Outliers. They are not subjected to anyone else. They don't listen to anyone. So it's on you how to convince them.""Who are they?""Ah, you don't know them. Let me tell you. Where is the chair?"Albery then proceeded to change the setting of the conversation. He took them back to the livi
"See, it's a small problem. Sometimes you have to just see who is more influential and ask them for help. Like me."Marvin didn't know what to say. The problem that looked giant was solved by his mother.He felt like he was a kid who told his mom that he was having a problem and she solved it fir him."Don't think too much. I'm giving you a meeting appointment. You have to get them to agree by yourself. If you can't, I'll do it because, honestly, it's for my niece. But you have to try."Marvin nodded. Yes, he understood perfectly."Mom, you are awesome.""I know, go sleep. I'll go and check if there is any other way we can find more help."Marvin felt happy.No matter how much he wanted to do, knowing that his mother was there for him, made him so happy. He felt more courageous.It was a good night.On the other hand, Aster video called Asher.Jake answered him."Brother Aster, Asher is asleep. He fell asleep just now."Aster could only sigh. That kid didn't miss him at all."Okay, I'
Aster watched Marvin questioning the left guardian of the Outliers.Apparently, there was a leader and two guardians- Left and Right, and ten heads.It was a very complicated arrangement but they worked it.The left guardian was a lady. She looked bloody. She had just fought with someone and the way she looked at them made Aster cringe.This group bordered the normal people and the mafia. That meant they were in the presence of people who could be normal and mad at the same time.Crazy, right?"You are here to question us?"She just asked."Yes," Marvin answered.She just stared at them all."You have no right to threaten a common person."She sneered."Common person? And how would you know that?""You didn't deny that you threatened the safety of my cousin?""Yes, why should I deny? Listen, we take orders and we complete them.""And you attack my family then you have to be prepared for consequences."She didn't look fazed."Mr. Albert Lexor, can this young gentleman represent you?""
