Chapter 271 - Hello, Justus

Somewhere in UK.

Holding a brown envelope in his hand, a young man stopped in front of a big metal door.

After scanning his thumb and eye, the man unlocked the door and entered the room.

"Elias my boy." A middle-aged man enthusiastically squealed and rushed towards him.

"How are-Ahhhhh looks like you found them. Give it to me, let me caress it and go through it." Carefully taking the envelope from Elias' hand, the man pressed it against his chest and rushed towards his chair.

Elias' brows slightly frowned and his lips twitched when he saw man clapping his hands and excitedly opening the envelope. "That is not something that you wanted Gorus, it's just a little evidence stating that she is alive." 

Gorus pouted his lips and huffed. "Is it? No pictures of her? Even after sending you, the most capable man of our invincible clan? No results at all?" 

With a straight face, Elias replied, "Nothing." 

Tossing the envelope aside, Gorus hissed, "What a pity but you don't seem to be affected by this first failure of yours. Why?"

Without waiting for his reply, Gorus got up from his chair and slowly made his way towards Elias who had an unreadable expression on his face. One would never be able to predict or even guess what was going on inside that head of his. 

Inching closer, Gorus whispered, "Or is it because you saw her but you don't want to tell us that you did? You can trust me Elias," He then giggled and added, "I won't tell Gorus."

"If I had seen her, why would I not tell you? What will I get if I hide the truth from you? Wouldn't that stop my promotion? Why would I incur a loss because of someone whom I don't even know?" 

Bringing his hands closer, Gorus tapped his fingers together and agreed, "Indeed, indeed why would Elias hide anything from us. Elias is a loyal man and is loyal to his first family. And Elias very well knows what will happen if he stops being loyal to his family. Elias is a smart boy. Isn't he?"

When Elias did not say anything, Gorus dramatically sighed. "Ahhh why is it so hard to get a picture of hers? Why? I am dying to know what Sabrina's daughter looks like. What do you think? Does she look like Sabrina? Or does she look like George?"

"I don't know." Elias answered without changing his expression.

Smiling cheekily, Gorus clapped his hands together in excitement. "I think she looks both like Sabrina and George. I want her to inherit Sabrina's eyes because that will make her look more beautiful."

Not wanting to be a part of the conversation, Elias asked," Is there anything else? If not then I'll take my leave."

Waving his hand, Gorus smiled, "Bye bye Alias."

Elias nodded his head and left.

Just then Gorus grabbed a paper holder and threw it towards Elias using all his strength. 

Swiftly turning around, Elias grabbed the paper holder with his right hand. "You want something Gorus?"

Gorus chuckled and shook his head, "I was just checking if you are as capable as you were before."

Tossing the paper holder aside, Elias started walking towards the door again.

"Someone stole our special box yesterday night from the control room. Do you know who did that Elias?" Gorus asked.

"I don't know Gorus." Elias answered.

Placing his finger on his cheeks, Gorus pretended to think, "Hmm should I ask Joseph about it too? Or should I ask our dear Eva? Ohh ohh why don't you ask them on my behalf?"

" I'll pass the message to them."

Gorus gasped and smiled, "You are such a sweet heart Elias."

Lagoon regency.

Silvia and Kevin's apartment.

" You are leaving? But it's Sunday." Passing him his coat, Silvia couldn't help but nag him for going to his office on a Sunday.

After wearing his coat, Kevin cupped her face and gave her a peck on her lips. "I'll be back in an hour."

Fixing his tie, Silvia pouted her lips and complained, "We were supposed to bake cupcakes together."

Wrapping his arms around her waist and sighed, "Hmmm cupcakes, why don't I come back fast and then I'll bake the cupcakes and also your favourite steak."

"Nachos too?" Silvia cheekily asked.

Kevin chuckled and nodded his head, "Nachos too."

Giving him a peck on his lips, nose, cheeks and his chin, Silvia chuckled, "Alright, you are allowed to leave."

"I'll be back soon and if you are bored, go to Martha or Bella's place. Oh and there is Janet too."

"Don't worry about me and come back soon." Silvia reminded him before seeing him off.

….

Matt's base.

Inside the base.

" Again you all are here? Why don't you all get this, I don't know a f.u.c.k.i.n.g thing apart from that I told you. You all are forcing me to make things up and lie to you." Morris frowned and yelled as soon as he saw Kevin, Matt, Chris, Rocky and a new man.

"And who is this new man? Are you people trying to gang up on me? Ahhh I was doing better on my own. Why did I even accept your offer? And you lied to me too." Morris yelled before pointing towards Kevin. 

When Kevin gave him a sly and mocking look, Morris frowned, "Didn't you tell me that you would give me a new identity, a new passport and identification cards? You also said that you will set me free if I tell you everything but you didn't. Instead you've locked me up here."

" Are you sure no one has ever given you a new identity?" A woman asked.

Morris frowned when he saw a woman walking towards him. 

Wearing a black dress and with her hair tied into a neat ponytail, Aunt Liza sat down facing Morris whose expressions had already turned pale. 

"L-Liza." Morris mumbled.

Placing her bag on the table. aunt Liza gave him a very sweet smile, "Hello Justus, long time no see."
