As his shirt dropped on the floor, he hugged his arms and hissed in pain. Taking a few breaths as he headed towards the cupboard, suddenly her voice came through. "Were you giving me a cold-shoulder because you don't want me to see your scars?"Upon hearing her voice, Rhodes quickly rushed to pick his shirt up but she picked it up first. Celeste grabbed his shirt firmly while approaching him, "You wanted me to not know your pain that's why you pushed me away.""It's late, you should...""Stop looking for an excuse, Rhodes." Her low pitched tone was a mere shadow of how much she was trying to keep calm."I... I am ti...""How did it happen?" "I want to..."Interrupting him for the second time, Celeste neared him as much as she could. She stood before him and could barely hold onto her tears. "Who did this to you? Tell me."Rhodes remained quiet, the room suddenly felt a lot colder than usual. Waiting for his answer even though she knew he wouldn't say anything, Celeste grabbed onto h

* At Night *"Yes, Mr. Weston. I am here to collect the report. Yes, once I get it I will take immediate action... Why is she... Is her brother admitted here?" "What happened?" Rhodes asked him, from the other side of the call."Oh, it's nothing. I just... I will call you back, bye." As soon as he came across her, Tyler stopped on the spot. He made a quick look at the surroundings, trying to not getting seen by her and as she continued walking away, he followed after her. "Yes, Miss. Thank you a lot and please, when he comes back... Tell him that I called. Yes, I will be waiting for you then." Hanging up, Xyria gazed at her phone screen with a sad look on her face. "I have called everyone I could, there's nobody left whom I can ask for help from. Xavi, what do I do now? You are unconscious, when you wake up they will take you back to the jail and I don't want that. I will prevent them from doing it anyhow but... Why there's no way out? There's not much time left... " 'I was right,

"His bodyguards are not with him today, he has been alone most of the days.""How about his secretary? Or his lawyer?""They are not with him, it's a bit strange since he never goes out without them. Boss, the target is now heading towards the suburbs. Should we keep following them or take action?""As soon as he enters the tunnel, do it. Make sure to not let any evidence behind.""Yes, boss. Should we kill the woman also? Or do we take her to t..."Upon hearing about a woman involved with him, the man from the other side of the call asked curiously, "What is she doing with him?""She was with him the whole day, they seemed inseparable." The man driving the car replied, following Rhodes at full speed. Not getting any response from his boss, he questioned again, "Boss, what do we do?""Change the plan.""What?""Don't do anything until I order." With that as he hung up, one of the men in the car asked, "What did he say?""We need to step back.""Huh? But we have come this far, why now?

Staring right into his eyes without even blinking once, Celeste was about to grab his hand but suddenly someone grabbed her hand and pushed her backwards. "You... Who are you? Why are you meddling in?" Nathan blurted out while trying to pull away his hand, looking at the tall man standing in front of him. Surprised by the sudden presence of him, Celeste gazed at the veiny hand and in a swift, her gaze shifted to his back. "Rhodes, why are you here?""Let go of me! Who the hell are you?" Nathan continued getting away from him only in vain. "Look at these two, are they fighting over a woman? Who are they? Do you know them? Wait, isn't he looking a bit too familiar? I feel like I've seen that woman and man somewhere. Especially that sexy vampire-like facing features...""Oh, right. I think he... Right, he is Rhodes Weston. OMG, take photos. I never could imagine that someone as famous as him, I will get to see him one day. Oh my god, someone should hold me. I might faint..."The woman

Knock! "Come in." Tyler murmured some words mindlessly, his eyes glued to the computer screen. The creaking sound of the door opening reached his ears but he remained unbothered by the unexpected presence of the person in his office. "Put those on the table and take out the blue one. Make a copy of it then bring it to me.""Uhmm... " Hearing the female tone of voice, his gazes shifted at her and he looked a little taken aback. "Miss Lopez, why are you here?""I wanted to see you so..." Xyria answered, standing at a close distance from him."Ahh, I see. What's wrong? Why did you want to see me?""Well, I found a lead in my brother's case. I wanted to talk to... You about it but since... I don't have your number, I couldn't reach you that's why..." As she voiced so, her gazes moved across the room aimlessly.Tyler nodded his head in understanding and added, "That's great. What did you find?"That night, Tyler not only saved her brother from getting attacked but he also let that assass
