A Billionaire In Disguise novel Chapter 208

The moment Amara reached her office, she walked over to her desk, threw her bag on it, and sat down in her seat.

After sitting still for a while, she reached into her bag, took out her vibrating phone, and saw Axel's name blinking on the screen.

The instant Amara accepted the call, she heard Axel say, “Where are you?”

“What is it? Why do you sound so serious?!" Amara asked with a frown, and yet her eyes bore worry in them.

“This is not the time to play stubborn, sister! Now, tell me where you are!” Axel said in a sharp tone.

“I'm at the office! Now, are you going to tell me what's going on, or are you going to keep lashing out at me?!"

"Plan three will be in motion a few hours from now, depending on how accurately Richard carries out my order. I need you to grab your passport and get out of here!"

"Brother…"

"Amara, listen to me! Your job was to get Rome involved with the company and keep him entangled with it for the longest for this moment!"

"I…"

"Now it's about to manifest, you can not be in the country when it happens, or else that will ruin everything we have worked so hard to achieve and get you into some serious shit with Rome! Got it?!"

The line grew quiet as Amara's brows furrowed as she frowned. Then she ignored the annoyance she felt and mumbled, “I understand. I will leave now and book the next flight back home.”

"Thanks for not being headstrong on this," Axel said from the other end of the line.

There was a brief pause. Then Amara eyes bore worry as she mumbled, "Brother,"

"Yes," Axel uttered in a calmer tone.

"Don't you think plan three is enough punishment for Mr. Ford? Do you have to go through with plan Four?"

"Amara, just to refresh your brain! That man ruined our lives, and we were just kids when it happened. He deserves what's coming to him!"

Biting her lip, Amara wondered in her thoughts for a while. Then she held her breath for a second and said, “Okay. Do what you have to do to appease your thirst for vengeance.”

The silence in the office got interrupted by her buzzing phone, and Catherine looked down at her screen.

It came as no shock to her when she read Richard's text on her screen, "Hey, where are you?"

Sighing, Catherine picked up her phone and wrote, "At the office. But I will be leaving very soon to visit our grandfather at the hospital. A couple of seconds passed. Then a message came in, " If you still have a heart left in you, can you please meet me at the Dallas cafe, not far from the hospital?"

A sense of hesitation overwhelmed Catherine for a moment. Then deciding not to read too much into it, she replied, "Okay."

The next three seconds went by in silence, and afterward, a new message flashed on her phone screen, "I will be waiting for you inside the cafe."

Drawing a breath, Catherine tried to calm her thoughts as she intensely stared at Richard's text. Then she tossed the phone on her desk and mumbled, "It's a popular cafe. What could he do to me in such a public place?"

By one-fifteen on the dot, Catherine left her seat, wore her coat, and walked out of the office.

At two o'clock, the vehicle made a stop in front of "Dallas cafe," and Catherine stepped out of the car.

With her eyes centered on the yellow building, Catherine took in a deep breath, looked at her bodyguards, and said, "Wait out here for me. I don't want to make our conversation more awkward than it's already going to be."

Then she approached the cafe, and after she walked in, Catherine immediately froze as she stared at the almost empty room with the seven robust men, glaring at her.

One look at the gun on their side and in their hands, Catherine's heart began to hammer in her chest as fear made her eyelids widen and her breath cut.

"Utter a single word, and we will bloody these tiles with your blood." One of the men said with a stare of death in his eyes.

Keeping still, Catherine swallowed hard, darting her eyes left and right, and then she felt a knot in her throat when her gaze landed on Richard.
