Chapter 355 - "I know Silvia is alive...."

"What brings you here at this hour?" Glancing at the watch, she answered, "I was about to leave." 

"I apologize for keeping you here but—" 

Cutting him off, Gorus snapped, "I brought him here." 

Raising her brows, she asked, "And why is that?" 

"I reported you." 

"Okay, may I know for what?" she calmly questioned him. 

"You are pregnant so I reported you," Gorus stated. 

Leaning against the desk, she sighed, "And how is that a concern for you? I think I am the one who should be worried about my baby and not you. I also don't remember you being related to my baby in any way." 

Gritting his teeth, Gorus retorted, "Your pregnancy is against the protocols and since you tried to hide your pregnancy from the authorities, it's punishable by law." 

Helplessly shaking her head, Janet looked at the member. "I think I will let you do the talking. Mr Gorus has been acting really outrageously and has been trying to go  against me since we executed his son. It's really difficult to work with him when he keeps rebelling like this." 

"You—" 

Cutting him off, the member stated, "We know about Janet's pregnancy, she told us about it months ago." 

"How is this possible? And why didn't I know about it?" Gorus snapped. Thinking Janet had hidden her pregnancy from everyone, he had plans of reporting and getting her evicted. But who would have thought things would turn out to be this way.

"Do you expect me to tell you about my pregnancy personally? Who do you think you are? You are just a subordinate who works under me, not a higher up. You should know your limits."

Ignoring Gorus, the member told Janet. "If he is hindering the performance of the organization and rebelling against the leader, I can help you bring him up to the higher ups and we can deal with him like we did with his son." 

"Thank you so much, I really appreciate it." After the member left, Janet smiled at Gorus. "You better start packing your bags." 

"You—" Gritting his teeth, Gorus snapped at her. "You can't do this to me. Do you think I don't know what's going on? I know Silvia is still alive."

Smiling at him, she remarked, "Then prove it. Why don't you come back when you have enough evidence to prove your accusations? Until then, the door is open." 

When Gorus dashed towards the door, she added, "Make sure to do it before I kick you out like your son." 

After he left, she quickly locked the door before asking Rocky to come out. "They left but we can't stay here longer, you have to leave." 

"I am not going alone," he frowned. "You are coming with me." There is no way he would leave her alone. 

"I can't, it's not the right time." Though she also wanted to go with him, she knew it wasn't appropriate at the moment. They were very close to executing their plan and she didn't want to ruin it.

"I don't wanna leave you alone anymore babe." 

"Listen to me, just give me a week, okay? Everything will be settled by then." Cupping his cheeks, she firmly said, "We have to do this, for us, for Kevin and Silvia. We have come a long way honey and everyone has worked so hard, we can't make any mistakes now." 

Pressing his forehead against hers, he sighed, "I am not okay with leaving you alone, this place is not safe." 

"Don't worry about me, there are many people around. Especially Elias, he is always there for Silvia and me." 

"Elias? Who is he?" 

"He works here but he is on our side," she answered. 

"Is there a way Kevin can talk to Silvia? He has been through a lot in the past months." 

Thinking for a while, she agreed, "Okay, I'll arrange something." 

Just then Janet's phone rang. "Okay, we are almost done." After hanging up the call, she told Rocky. "You need to leave now, it's not safe." 

"Who was that?" 

"It was Elias, he will escort you outside. Just don't say anything and follow him," she instructed. 

Grabbing her hand, he asked, "When do I see you again?" 

"Soon, we just need to stay strong for a little longer." When someone knocked at the door, Janet sighed, "It must be Elias, you have to go." 

"Hmm, take care of yourself and if anything happens, call me." 

She nodded her head and pulled away before opening the door. Looking at Elias, she said, "Take him out safely, okay?" 

Elias nodded his head and assured her, "Don't worry. Wait for me here, I will take you home later." 

After they both left, Janet sighed and slumped up on the couch. For the first time in five months, she finally felt relieved even though things were not one hundred percent under their control. 

As she was preparing to leave to tell Silvia everything that had happened, she received a call from her brother. 

"Jan, where are you?" Matthew inquired. 

"I am at the base, ready to leave. Why?" 

"There is a major change in plan." Without waiting for her reply, he added, "We need to involve the guys." 

"But why? What happened?" she asked. 

"I can't tell you anything over the phone, just go home and stay with Silvia, I'll come and see you later." After saying that, he hung up the call. 

Janet couldn't help but feel restless after the phone call. The thought of involving Rocky and others made her feel uneasy. She always wanted to keep Rocky far away from the mess so the idea of involving all of them didn't seem right.

….

Outside. 

"Janet told me you have been taking care of her and Silvia, I want to thank you for that." 

"It's nothing, you don't have to thank me. Janet and Silvia are doing so many things and this was the least I could do for them." Taking out a phone from his pocket, Elias gave it to Rocky. "Here, take this and give it to Kevin."
