    Someone was coming, she opened the door and went in hastily before the servants could see her around there. She was inside now, she waited there putting her ear on the door trying to hear them from outside until the two servants pass by. Outside the room The two servants, Chloe heard, came there, in front of the room. "There's no one.", he looked around. "Maybe you have misheard." "Really? But I think I heard a clicking sound." "They are cleaning downstairs may be you heard something from there and misunderstood." "Maybe." "Let's leave from here. It's the Master's room. Someone will think wrongly if he sees us here, standing for long." "Yup. Let's go." The two of them left from there. ***** "The two left, I guess.", Chloe said to herself when she heard no sound coming from outside. She bent to look at their feet to confirm. There was no one.

    Outside of Chloe's RoomThe maid knocked on the door and called her."Miss."But there was no reply from inside."She said that she would be resting in her room. Maybe she slept, but I have to wake her up, the guest is already here. I don't think any of us have madam's phone number, I should call on the telephone line inside the room.", the maid said to herself.She pulled out her phone that is given to every maid to communicate inside the mansion.She dialed the number for Chloe's room, the bell was ringing but no one was picking up the call."Is there any problem?", the maid suddenly heard a voice from behind and turned around.She saw Chloe standing there.Chloe was wearing the same clothes, she was wearing earlier."Miss! I thought you were inside.", the maid said to her."Oh! yeah. I was feeling a bit sleepy, so I just thought to walk around a bit until the designer came.

    *** (Back in time) In the morning - When Chloe was in Dave's room... ***Chloe was standing near the door, glancing outside.Suddenly, a thought crossed her mind about the photo she had seen earlier, the rest of the pictures were only of Dave and his parents, not even his aunt or grandparents and there was only one such picture.Who can that person be?She returned to the bookshelf where she found the photo, pulled out the album, and again went through all the pictures.Exactly as she thought, there was no other picture of that boy with Dave nor was any picture of someone other than him and his parents.That was weird, the boy must be someone special for Dave to hold this only picture of him like this.She took the photo and hid it in her dress before getting out.*** Back to present ***After giving the photo to the man, she drove the car to Dave's company, in the meantime, she received a message from her colleague asking her when she would come. Chloe replied to the message when she

    "Now what do you think about my plan?", Chloe asked everyone.Everyone was quite impressed with the idea she presented in front of them.Everything seemed possible for the first time in this consignment case, it finally seemed that they could have what they desired.Everyone applauded her, except for one person who remained silent during the entire time and raised an objection just now.Chloe earnestly looked at the two of them.Dave grinned and looked at Owen saying."As you are the head of the planning department and are responsible for passing all the plans before presenting them to the attendees and me; this time too you have to give your affirmation first. If you do reject this plan I will not interfere any further.""What's wrong with the idea, there isn't a single flaw. I think we should go for it. We do not need his preference.", one of the attendees said.Chloe turned her head and looked at him it was the head of the intel department."I don't think you were not listening onc

    Chloe came out after wearing the dress. Anne, Dave's cousin looked at her with soft eyes, "The dress fits you well.", she said with a light smile. "Now come fast and let me do your makeup.", Anne pulled her onto the dressing table. Anne started to apply makeup on her skin. "Do you have any preference over your makeup?", Anne asked Chloe. "Nothing, but make sure I look intimidating. A woman's makeup shows her personality and how others receive her words. I will be Dave's partner I have to stand out, no matter what. " "Quite a task to do. I will ensure you won't fade away while standing beside my brother." "Thank you for helping me." "Hmm." Soon after Chloe's makeup was done. "See yourself.", Anne said stepping aside. Chloe looked at her image in the mirror, she was about to touch her face but got smacked on the hand. "Hey! Don't touch your face.", Anne said to her. "That's great given the short time you used.", Chloe said staring at her face in the mirror. "I know my talen

You are here.", the man said. "Of course, how can I forget your birthday, Happy Birthday, Uncle.", Dave said with the warmest smile on his face. Chloe looked at him and thought, "Wow, I think he is playing dumb at Freya's intention, it was clearly mentioned what are doing and I have to vary every single one of them. But look at him now, he can be a good actor if not a great one. And that bit*h uncle is no less, kid my ass." "Uncle, Grandfather won't be able to attend but he sent his wishes for you." "I understand, he is quite aged now. I am afraid we may lose him before expected in this dire time." Chloe understood the meaning behind his words, he is saying that after his grandfather there is going to be a war for the throne of the Mafia King.

    "I know him very well," Zen smiled.Chloe remained silent, pretending she wasn't understanding what he was saying."I understand why you came here," Dave said.Zen's gaze shifted to Dave."Chloe, Could you please help me with this one thing? If you see this man saying something stupid, leave him right away. You don't need to think about anything."Dave locked his gaze on him.Chloe burst out laughing at the sight of the two.Chloe had never seen Dave bicker like that before. His words are usually either a cautionary tale or a command to others. Every word has different meanings."Fine, is this the queue from which I should leave?" she asked, looking at them both."Hey! You're ruining both of our moods. Are you afraid she will leave you if she learns about your past? ", Zen told Dave."Chloe, your name is Chloe, right?" Zen asked.Chloe gave a slight nod of the head."Would you like to join me for a drink until your boring fiance greets the rest of the guests? I'm telling you, it's bet

I believe your friend arrived.

But now my goal has shifted; I was already lacking in information on Dave, and now I know nothing about him. Aiden has not yet contacted me. I'm sure I'm on their radar now.

    The Next Day, Early MorningChloe was dozing off in her bed when she flipped over.Behind her, she sensed a dip in the mattress, like though someone had been sitting on it.Without delay, she spun around and withdrew the dagger that she always kept beneath her pillow.She brandished the dagger at the intruder in her room.He raised his hands instantly, and it was Frank, she saw sitting on the bed."I assumed you were getting a good night's sleep." Frank remarked, "I see you are quite sensitive."Pointing the blade at him, Chloe questioned, "How did you come in?"Frank jokingly said, "Shouldn't your question be what I am doing here?"Glaring at him, Chloe said, "Answer me, first.""OK, all right." Frank replied, "I entered through that door; it's my house, and I have extra keys for all the doors in this house."Chloe noticed the door opened.Frank asked, "Now, will you put down that dagger?" as he pushed the blade halfway down.Chloe reclaimed the dagger.Chloe asked, ruffling her seve

    Chloe left Frank and Dave and went to her room.As Chloe walked away, Frank asked Dave, "Can we go to my room?""Yes. By now, the room must have been cleaned by the maids.""I kept this room locked while you were away.", Dave said as he opened the door, "Everything is as it is, as you left it."Frank replied, looking around the room and recalling all the memories of his youth he had, some fuzzy and some as vivid as the sky, "Hmm... it's been a long right?"Dave hugged his brother once more and whispered, "I waited for you."Frank could hear a slight tremble in Dave's voice.Frank hugged him back, and let him rest on his shoulder for a while."How can you trust her alone? What if something happened to you? I would have sent more people. Why you asked for her alone.", Dave asked as a tear escaped from his eyes falling on his brother's shoulder.Frank said to his brother, "I wanted to see what she was capable of and what not.""You take such a big chance just to try her out?", Dave quest

    On one side, Frank and Chloe were standing, and on the other, the enemy's men were waiting for Frank."I'll handle everything; just get in the car and drive away from here," Chloe told Frank.Chloe was prepared to fight back though she knew she couldn't win over these men. But the only thing she has to do is get Frank safely out of here.The enemy's men began to approach them.Frank took Chloe's hand in his."We're not going to win here." Frank said as he began running in the opposite direction pulling Chloe with him."Run." Frank said.With all those men trailing behind them."What are your thinking? We can't avoid them for long even if we run inside.", Chloe said as she ran."Simply follow me and run as fast as you can. We just need to vanish from their sight.", Frank said as the two kept running.Suddenly, a bullet was fired at them. Chloe looked behind her, and those men were getting closer.

    Dave escorted Chloe away from the party. There was another car alongside the one they arrived in. Dave made her to sit in the other car.Chloe noticed, while getting in, the Castello's symbol wasn't on the car.Dave inquired about her arms, "Are you loaded?""Sufficiently.", she answered."If you require additional weapons, there is one right beneath your seat. You are also free to take that. The driver will take you to your destination and explain everything to you. There will be a man there. Bring him safely to me. That is your responsibility.""What is his name? How will I recognize him? ", Chloe inquired, perplexed by what was going on.If there was an emergency, hundreds of Dave's men will be stationed here. But no one was there, so it could be someone Dave doesn't want anyone to know about.Who could it possibly be? Chloe asked to herself."The driver will give you a picture. I'll tell the others that you weren't feeling well, so we're both going back. I'll be waiting for you a

    Dave was gone. After speaking with Jasper for a while, Chloe learned a few useful things, but he was constantly trying not to spit out the important information. But Chloe was confident that she could get him to say anything, but she needed time. There were far too many distractions, and people were crowding around her. Although Jasper was still nearby, the others were taking up too much of her time, making it impossible for her to converse with him. She went to Jasper, as soon as she found some space, before anyone else approached her. "Hey! Can you help me, Mr. Jasper?", Chloe inquired. "I'm starting to feel congested. This is my first time here, so I'm not sure where I should go. Can you take me to a vacant area?" Chloe performed admirably in convincing him of what she was saying. "Sure, I'll assist you. Come along with me.", Jasper stated. Chloe followed him to the location he was taking her. He continued to speak as they travelled. "I completely understand how you mus
