Chapter 357 - What?

Without answering his question, Matthew took out a file from his bag. "Why don't I give you all the information that is required to take SPIRIT down and you pass it down to your higher ups." 

"But why?" Chris frowned. "We thought you had a plan." 

Matthew nodded his head and agreed, "Yes, we did have a plan but if we execute that plan now, Janet has to be actively involved in it and I don't want that." Looking at Rocky, he sighed, "I know you don't want that too." 

"I know it has been very hard for the two of you but this was necessary. We could manage to dig out everything about SPIRIT only after Janet took over. It would have never been possible without that. We also got help from many people—" Looking at Chris, he added, "Your parents too. In fact, without them and Elias, this would have never been possible." 

Shoving the file towards Kevin, Matthew stated, "We have gathered everything that's needed to take it down. Now I hand it over to you all and I am sure you will deal with it the way it's meant to be." 

After considering all the odds, Matthew along with others decided to go for a cleaner and simpler method to deal with SPIRIT. Instead of taking it down on their own, they decided to let the military take things over and for this to happen, they needed Kevin and Rocky's help. He also didn't want both Silvia and Janet to be involved in anything. He didn't want to take any risk.

"What about Silvia and Janet?" Kevin asked. 

"Don't worry about them, Elias has already taken them somewhere else. They are safe there," he answered. 

Picking up the file, Rocky asked, "What is the deadline?" 

"Whenever they are ready, it's in their hands now." Glancing at the watch, Matthew said, "I'll take my leave now. We all believe you both will deal with this better than us." 

After Matthew left, Matt quickly scanned through the file. "Damn, SPIRIT is dirtier than I had thought. This information is more than enough to take that shit down, even I can do it." 

"Don't get excited Matt, we are not taking things in our hand anymore," Chris remarked. 

"You guys are no fun," he scoffed. 

"Who is this Elias?" Kevin asked Rocky. 

"I met that guy. Apparently he has been taking care of Janet and Silvia." Looking at him, he added, "The cell phone I gave you, Elias gave it to me." 

Thinking for a while, Kevin asked, "Good looking?" 

"In front of us he looks like a wet rat," he scoffed. 

Looking at the two sly men, Chris raised his brows. "You both sound like two jealous men." 

Ignoring his remark, Kevin got up. "I'll call someone and arrange a meeting with the higher ups." 

"Hey, do you think they will promote you both if you pass on this information?" Matt chuckled. 

Shrugging his shoulders, Roger said, "They might give us a medal." 

"Let's get this done as soon as possible, I just want to bring Silvia home." 

….

Three days later. 

Austin mansion. 

Hanging up the call, Herpi approached Kevin. "I have been getting calls since morning, everyone seems to be loving the information you and Rocky gave them." 

"You know I have nothing to do with it, you should give credit to the people who actually worked hard," Kevin answered. 

"I know you are angry with me," he sighed. "To be honest, I was ready to face your wrath for the rest of our lives when I decided to hide the truth from you." 

Without waiting for his reply, Herpi added, "You know why I never visited you for the past five months? Because I was scared son, I was scared I would break down and tell you everything. And if that happened, everything would go wrong. Many people have worked together and managed to make this entire plan successful." 

Placing his hand on Kevin's shoulder, he sighed, "I just wanted you and Silvia to lead a happy and peaceful life in the future. Though the whole involvement of SPIRIT made your married life difficult, I knew that a short separation would fix everything and after this is over, we all would live a peaceful life." 

Kevin sighed and nodded his head. "I know you wanted the best for us. I can never be angry with you dad, I was just a little disappointed when you did not tell me about Silvia's whereabouts when I asked you. But later I understood why you did that." 

"You do?" When he nodded his head, Herpi breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you for understanding. I was actually very worried you would be very mad at me. I mean, when I heard Silvia was pregnant and I was told to keep it away from you, I was—" 

Cutting him off, Kevin snapped, "What?" 

"W—What?" 

"What did you just say?" he widened his eyes in shock. 

"What did I say?" 

"The thing you said just now dad?" 

"What thing?

"About that—pregnant?" 

With his mouth wide opened and his eyes widened in shock Herpi shuttered, "Y—You didn't know?" When Kevin gave him a blank look, he gulped in nervousness. "Haha, I—I think your mom is calling me." 

Without waiting for his reply, Herpi rushed towards the door. 

"Dad stop right there and come here,'" he called him back. 

Left with no other choice, Herpi cursed himself and walked inside the room again. Awkwardly clearing his throat, he nervously chuckled, "Son, you know your mom, if I don't go when she calls me she starts shouting." 

"Dad, mom is not at home. Now tell me what was that about?" Kevin couldn't believe what he had heard. He needed to hear it again to freak out properly later. 

Left with no other choice and any chance to escape, Herpi sighed, "Fine, I thought you already knew this. I thought Silvia told you when she called you the other day but I guess she wanted to surprise you or something." 

"Just tell me what you told me a minute ago," Kevin impatiently demanded.
