Chapter 255 - Not what it seems

=========

When Lena left, Kris was able to accomplish the business he had come for today. He was able to discuss contracts with a few of the rising stars and top stars for the upcoming Li advertisements for his businesses.

He was just ending a conversation with one of the stars when his phone rang. He had it on silent, but it would only ring if it was an emergency... he wondered what it could be.

"Excuse me." Kris stepped out to a quieter place with no one around and picked up the call. "What is it?"

"We're detecting some suspicious activity from your penthouse," Keso answered.

"What do you mean? Someone is trying to break in?"

"We're not sure. It's not ground activity, it air activity. We have no visual yet, we're sending in a drone right now as we speak."

"Dammit!" Kris rushed out, but remembered he did not have his car. "Where is Lena right now?"

"Uh...."

Keso had been sticking with Gary the past few days since his break. He was working late with Gary on a situation when the security system alerted them. A helicopter had been hovering above's Kris penthouse for longer than a pass by.

It was too dark to have a good visual on it. The cameras on Kris' rooftop cannot detect it good enough, meaning that the helicopter must be on their blindsides. Keso immediately sent out a drone for better visuals.

"Tracking her now." Gary opened up Lena's tracker on her phone. "She's driving there, now. She'll arrive there in about 3 minutes."

"Call Hugh to meet me at the back." Kris commanded. Kris took out his personal phone and call Lena, but the call immediately lost connection. "Why does she have her phone off at this moment?!"

"I don't think that is the problem... I just lost her signal from her cell. I think someone is jamming the area." Gary replied. "Let me see if I can get into the building's access and lock her in the elevator."

"Sending Alpha Team to the location. We'll have visual on the target in 15 seconds." Keso added.

There were so many things going on at the same time. Keso was focused on finding a visual on their threat. Gary was locating Lena and trying to stop her. Kris was impatiently waiting for his ride.... he felt useless. Why did he have to let her go home... he should have just gone with her.

In a flash, Ming Zhou pulled up his car and Kris quickly got in.

"What's the situation?" Ming Zhou asked.

He just got an emergency message and immediately left. He was tired anyways... Now that Kris is taken and Andy Yang is so secluded now since his last break-up, Ming Zhou had been surrounded by so many women.

"We got visual." Keso connected the screen to Kris' phone. The drone shot the moment someone jumped out of the plane and landed on the rooftop.

"B*tch." Kris mumbled.

"Hmm?" Ming Zhou was confused, but he focused on driving like a mad man.

"Send back the Alpha team. What is the location on Lena?"

"There seems to be something blocking me. I can either lock Lena in or chase the hackers." Gary was a pro at what he was doing, but if he took the time to go pass the hacker and lock Lena in the elevator, the hackers would be gone by then once they know they were compromised.

"Follow the hackers." Kris replied. "Lena can handle the threat."

Ming Zhou felt like he was left out. He glanced at the screen on Kris' phone and pressed on the gas. "Why is she here?"

"Breaking commands, obviously."

After a few minutes, Ming Zhou stopped at the back of the apartment building. Kris opened the door and got out. Without any words exchanged between the two, Ming Zhou drove back to his own place. He would not like to stay for the show, especially with the look of Kris when he left.

"I want a location on the hackers by the time I call back." Kris commanded and then hung up the call.

Kris pressed the elevator button and waited for a few seconds before it arrived. He got in and pushed the button for the top floor.

"Who the f*ck are you?"

What Lena did not anticipate was that the woman immediately pulled a gun to her face. Obviously, Lena knew that she made a few stupid assumptions. One, thinking that Kris was home. Two, trusting that Kris security system was foolproof.

A gun to her face... Lena was planning to play the cute, bratty girl card at first... but it seemed like she would need to go with plan B.

Plan B, some b*tch a*s kicking.

Without a second to think some more, Lena grabbed the gun with her left arm, twist the wrist and hit the woman's nose with her palm. The women immediately faltered back, unexpected and lost her grip on the gun.

The woman did not expect Lena to know any self-defense. Her information had nothing about this. Lena was able to land a hit on her, but that was because she underestimated her opponent. She will not let Lena have a second -----.

"Ah!" She screeched.

Lena did not let the woman continue to think. She pulled her hair down, grabbed the gun off her, and smack the lady once more, with the gun using her left hand.

Lena tossed the gun aside and tripped the woman down onto the floor. She gave her a chokehold as she pinned her feet on the ground.

"I'll ask one more time. Who the f*ck are you?!!"

*Cough cough* The woman tried to take a breath. 'Does this woman want an answer? or to kill me?'

Lena tightened her choke on the lady. No, she was really not expecting an answer. Anyone intruding her home without permission, no mercy. And especially someone who is wearing HER boyfriend's clothes, yeah... dead no, no.

"Lena!"

Lena glanced up and she spotted Kris at the bedroom door.

"Let her go."
