Chapter 03 : Living In Residence Mendrik's

"I thought you'd take me to your study. But you didn't."

"I've been sitting in the study for a long time. Right now I want to sit here so that you too can get rid of the feeling tired after a long journey," Alfred said then drank the wine that had been prepared there .

Laura who had no intention of answering what Alfred said took the wine that had been served while looking around the place. Currently. The two of them were sitting by the very large pool.

His mind kept thinking and muttering. 'Where exactly is this guy hiding Damian?' his mind asked.

Brack!

A voice suddenly sounded, making Laura's gaze immediately shift to the file that was now lying on the table. He took it and opened it.

It was a contract that stipulated all the conditions that Zena had to fulfill, before cooperating with Alfred.

"This is letter a contract. You can read and understand it yourself. If you accept all the terms, you can sign it right away," Alfred said, making Laura's gaze return to the file.

Of course he didn't read it, he just pretended to read it to make his acting look perfect. Because Laura doesn't care about all the requirements written there. He would accept all the terms specified until his hand immediately signed the letter.

Laura throw up her face to smile, then said as she held out the file to Alfred. "I agree to all the terms, sir."

Alfred smiled faintly, received the file and gave it to his bodyguard to be put in Alfred's study.

"That's a very right decision Miss Zena and yes, regarding what you should do. Have you thought about how the method to find the girl?" Alfred asked starting the discussion.

Laura cleared her throat, then looked at Alfred who was now looking middle at him coldly. "Obviously I've thought about it, sir." Laura adjusted her seat to face Alfred more. "So this is it, sir. After I checked all the information you give on the girl. I thought it would be very difficult to the point that it would take a long enough time to find her. Moreover I heard, none of your people which managed to get any information about the whereabouts of the girl," said Laura.

"That's true. But, not it a Zena Mikayla can find that girl's whereabouts in only no time?"

"No, sir. Every case I handle of course always successful, but it that thing also requires the same time as this time. I need time to find her whereabouts. Because it's impossible, in just one step, what you are looking for can direct found," explained Laura.

Alfred was silent for a moment. Actually he could no longer wait too long to get news of the whereabouts of about the girl holder the chip that was really important to his father.

However. His father also said that the Alexander family was very good at hiding identities and it was difficult for any detective or intelligence agency to find them.

"Approxemintely how long will it take you?" asked Alfred.

"About two months at most, sir."

Alfred was silent for a while before finally returning speaking. "Okay. I'll give it your some time. However, After i did'nt want any additional time," he said.

Alfred just didn't know. if the woman currently sitting in front of her was the woman he been looking for years.

"Of course there won't be any extra time, sir. Because I'll do my best."

'Working to find out about your Father's whereabouts, Mr Alfred. Not for finding out about myself.' Laura continued her words silently.

"And yes. There is one more thing, sir. If you don't mind if I can stay in this house? As I think, this quest will be much easier if we meet often and discuss this matter often so this problem that can walk went as expected. So, does Mr. Alfred agree?"

***

After getting approval from Alfred to live in his house. Laura immediately packed up and took her things to the Mendricks residence. And now, Laura middle was in the guest room which would be her private quarters at the Mendrick residence until the drama she was doing was over.

There was no debate when Laura asked to stay in this mansion. Because Alfred immediately agreed to what he asked.

Drett! Drett! Drett!

His cell phone suddenly rang, making Laura, who was putting her clothes in to closet, immediately picked up the call.

"Hello."

[Sorry, Miss. I lost track of Mr. Alfred. I'm really sorry for the mistake I made tonight.]

Laura took off the clothes she was holding roughly. "How could you lose track of him, huh!" She snapped, in a voice deliberately minimized, because she didn't want anyone in the house this hear her words.

Yes. Laura ordered her men to follow Alfred who was going to meet Damian and his mother, of course whom he had deliberately hidden in a place that no one knew.

Initially Laura which would follow him. However, because he didn't want to be suspected by the maids who greeted him when he came to Alfred's house on the first day. So, she decided to just send his men. However, she never thought in the slightest that the outcome would be like this.

[Sorry, Miss. However, it seems that Mr. Alfred knowing that's a car is following him. That's why he outwit me into making me lose track of him. Forgive me once again, Miss.]

"That means, you're stupid. Why don't you keep your distance while following him! Totally unreliable!" Laura cursed then ended the call and threw her phone on the bed.

"How could he lose track of that man?! This is a good which opportunity to find out where that man is hiding Damian. How could he make a mistake like this when the situation is so favorable," Laura cursed angrily.

Dor! Dor!

However, which a sudden voice shound made Laura immediately turn her head towards the door of the room which was middle tightly closed. His brow furrowed when he heard gunshots from outside.

Curiosity welled up in his chest. Are Alfred's men middle practicing shooting? But why don't they practice outdoors. Why should it be in the house?

"Why did you come here! Who gave you permission to enter here, huh!"

The voice of a woman screaming was faintly heard. Made Laura's curiosity even bigger. Is there a woman in this house? Who's he? Is it Jessica, Alfred's him sister?

Don't want to waste too much time thinking. He immediately took the gun and put the bullet in it. He opened the door and saw a dark passageway, which lit only by a few yellow lights.

Of course that made the situation even more sinister. Moreover, the lights in the entire room had been turned off, coupled with the voice of the woman downstairs that sounded so loud and hysterical, making this situation seem very scary.

"Go away from here! I told you how many times never to enter this house again! Do you really want to be killed by my brother, hah!"

Laura turned around, came out of hiding, though she didn't understand with what was happening now. Her face still looks flat even though she looks directly from the floor above, how frightened the beautiful woman is who is now middle walking backwards because the tall and burly man is getting come closer to him.

"I want my baby, Jessy. I want my son with me."
