After Archer and Keith left the building, they immediately informed the other team that was stationed in the restaurant near the beach."Mission secured. Gwen is coming for dinner. Vasquez, are you ready?"Silver looked at the man beside him and answered the question himself. "He's good to go. Let rule number three commence!"Evander rolled his eyes and looked in the mirror to see himself. As the boys gave his hair a distinctive style, altered his voice, and most crucially, covered his face with a mask, no one would be able to identify him."Let us go? I have already told my men about the plan. All seats will be taken right before Gwen comes in, except for the one we set up for the two of you. The rest is up to you, brother. If you need anything, just speak. We can hear everything from the device Vermillion gave us. " Evander nodded and left the room to start his mission.On the other hand, Archer and Keith had just informed Gwen that they had arrived at the restaurant. When the front
Gwendolyn was staying on a specific island and working at a specific resort, according to information Duke Estian discovered.He therefore traveled a great distance to verify its veracity, but as soon as he and his companions set foot on the island, they were stopped by men dressed in black suits."I'm sorry, sir, but this is a private island. Approval from the owner is a must before setting foot here. So, if you don't want bullets raining in perfect weather like this, I will walk back to where I came from." The guard, who looked like their captain, replied with a very serious face.So severe that his warnings would actually come true if they didn't follow their regulations. He is not the only man who is watching out for them, his butler nudged him and said. They are already surrounded by snipers.They are definitely in a pinch. "Let's head back for now. We'll be back after getting permission." Estian walked back to his yacht and looked at the drifting island.This place is really sus
Silver and Archer ran at the speed of light when they noticed Gwen was nowhere behind them."I told you to keep your eye on her! What would happen if she found out?""Why are you getting mad at me? If you didn't argue about the flavor, then we wouldn't be running like this."Silver abruptly stopped in his tracks and saw what they were fearing."Fuck, mission failed.""Covers have been blown."They appear to be bickering over something. After a few minutes, Gwen marched off while wearing a furious expression.Before racing in to check on what happened, Silver examined the surroundings to make sure it was safe to proceed."Dude! What happened? Did she find out?""Almost, I made up some lies and told her I know Red. She didn't buy it and walked out."They all blew a sigh of relief. The mission continues."Then what's the plan now? If she knew you were here she'd be on her guard.""And what took you so long? It was so hard containing her in one place!"Let's go back to the part where Evan
(Now, would you like to hear the agenda I planned for you guys?)That was what he said, but the call just suddenly got cut off for some reason. What should we do now?"Since it's still quite early, would you like to have breakfast first?" My brow instantly arched when I heard him say that.Why does he care?"Thanks, but no thanks. My SECRET ADMIRER had already given me breakfast. Isn’t he sweet?" I said, quite mocking him, but instead of seeing an irritated expression, he looked delighted."So, you think he's sweet, huh?" he said, hiding his smile, which I could still see.Wait— is he blushing?! Why the hell?!"Anyway, that thing shouldn't have been enough. I'm taking you to breakfast, whether you like it or not. Or do you want me to eat you instead?"I felt blood rushing to my cheeks, so I didn't have a choice but to walk out. But because we were tied up together, I'm basically pulling him.I dragged him to one of the resort's restaurants. I saw Felicity and called her." Hey— Oh my
Gwen didn't slept a wink that night. All she could think about is to what Evander meant about the gift he gave her.The next morning, since she couldn't get herself to sleep she went out of her room and found Evander seated on a single chair with a mug of coffee on his right hand and reading the morning paper on the other."Good morning, Coffee?" he asked when he noticed her presence.She waved her hands signaling him No. She ignored Evander and went straight to the kitchen to whip herself breakfast before they get off the island.She still have work waiting for her back on the front desk, and the thing that happened last night- it was all a mistake. She was just carried away by the current of events.Gwen flinched when she felt a hand snake on her waist."That's one deep sigh. A penny of your thoughts?" he said as he snuggled behind her.But Gwen didn't respond, instead he pushed his hand away and took a few steps back.Evander's expression changed in a split second. His brow furrowe
'Did I dial the right number?' Gwen thought and checked her phone once again but it clearly says RED there."Habibi? Zosia? You still there?"Then why is it Evander she's hearing?"Evander?""Yeah? You need something Habibi?""No wait— I'm calling Red's number right? Why are you answering the phone?" Gwen heard him cuss from the other line.And that's when her suspicion started. It all made sense but she was with Evander that day when she called Red and he wasn't holding or in a call with someone that time, so why?" Are you mad? "" Wait, so it's true?"Evander sighed and answered yes. "I didn't want to lie to you. It's just that— I know you wouldn't talk to me if I approached you that fast just after you confessed that Saturday night.""So, you pretended to be Red?""Yes, I'm sorry."Gwendolyn could clearly imagine Evander's face right now. I'm sure he didn't really mean to lie but it's still not right for him to do that. He still lied."Do you still have things you're keeping from
The news about Gwendolyn and Evander traveled fast it even reached their parent's radar.Gwendolyn didn't go home nor informed his brother about her arrival. In the meantime, she's staying at Evander's place until she finds a place to rent."You know you can just stay here, I'm your boyfriend I can provide you with anything. In fact, you wouldn't need to work if you live with me. I'll take care of everything; money isn't a problem." Evander stated as he folds his towel after he finished showering.Gwen chuckled and shook her head," You know we can't do that. I'll handle myself; you don't need to do any of what you said for now. I want to stand on my own two feet." she replied democratically.Evander just shrugged and told her that he'll go with whatever she have in mind, "But if you do need any help, then I should be the first one who should know, okay? I wanna help." He said and smiled gently at her before giving her a kiss on the forehead.That day ended and Gwen woke up without see
Gwendolyn Zosia Lopez a woman with the red V-neck mermaid dress satin backless gown walked like a queen towards her newlywedded friend.Eleanor rolled her eyes and stood up to hug her. "You're late Miss Lopez and you look like you've already had a few drinks yourself. Are you okay?" Gwen gave her a fake smile and told her not to worry about her and focus on her own wedding.She congratulated them once again and bid goodbye to head towards the bar counter to have a few drinks before going for more shots with the other gals." One martini please, " she said in a flat voice and stared dully at other guests.Gwen felt someone sat next to her, but she paid that no mind. She slowly drank her martini and savored the taste, not until the person beside her spoke."Bored?" A man with coarse low-rumbling voice reverted in her head. She glanced and saw a sinfully gorgeous man wearing a three-piece suit staring at his drink. She almost drooled, thank God she did not."Kind of, you a friend of the

Slowly waking up, Evander rubbed his eyes. His excruciating headache and flashbacks to last night's events assaulted his mind as soon as he sat up.He only remembered how Gwen admitted her affection for him among all the other things he did while intoxicated. Although she was crying, she still managed to appear stunning.Fuck! Why am I so lucky? I got myself a goddess for a girlfriend.Without wasting any time, Evander went in search of his phone and dialed her number.The number you have dialed is currently unable to be reached.When he could not reach her despite calling her phone numerous times, Evander's face wrinkled.Evander got up, groomed himself, then took his car keys and drove off by himself to find his girl.He stopped at her house and was about to go in when an old man called out to him and told him that the house had been empty since last night.Did she move out? Why? Didn't we just make up last night? Is she running away from me again? Or was it Duke's doing?Evander tr
Evander was unable to glimpse Gwen since Genus and Estian were covering her behind their bodies. “What are you looking for, Vasquez? Has she not informed you that the contract is finished?” Genus stated bluntly, his rage growing, "You have no reason to meet her any longer.” He continued.Gwen had intended to leave the matter to the two and simply leave since she didn't want to hear what he had to say, but when Evander started speaking, she became firmly fixed in place. “Not you two,” he said, "I'm here to talk to Zosia."Holding back my emotions, I tightly closed my eyes. I took a deep breath and patted Estian's and Genus's backs. I simply nodded and made an effort to smile as they both sent worried looks my way. Sighing, Genus informed me that he would be waiting for me in the car. When Estian didn't depart, I stared at him.“I can’t leave you here with him princess,” he sounds just like my brother right now. I chuckled at that thought and told him off. “I’ll be fine, go on. I’ll be
