Chapter 120: A Trap Don ushered Grey inside and they both stared down at the phone on the table. Different thoughts were colliding in Grey’s mind.
"You told me Lan sent you a text yesterday, right?" Don started.
Grey nodded briefly." He did and he wants us to meet.
He sent the location as well." "Well," Don shrugged slightly." This code might mean nothing.
As far as we know, the message came from an unknown source.
Why did you think it's from Lan?" Grey regarded Don for a moment.
He was right anyways but he couldn't stop thinking something was wrong somewhere.
“Who sent the code then?” Grey questioned.
Don shrugged again.” It could be anyone.
It could be a random message." "That would come in at such a time? The timing was perfect.
It looked like someone was trying to make us see something, I just don’t know what.
I mean it wouldn’t be a coincidence.” he complained.
Don let out a sigh." What should we do now?* Grey relaxed in his chair.
"Give me some moments, I need to think it through.
Then, we will decide on what to do," he informed.
Don nodded briefly." Can I get you something then?" Grey nodded once.
“Anything.” Don got up and left.
Grey stared down at his phone for eternity.
Actually, Grey found it weird after Lan refused to pick up his call and the fact that he didn’tsend a coded message.
And then suddenly, the whole code came in at once but from a different line.
Grey sat bolt upright as realization dawned on him suddenly.
What if Lan was really in danger? But he was still able to send a code to alert themand prevent them from falling into the trap.
Don walked inside again but with a bottle of champagne.
“We need to contact Gregory immediately.
We need to scout the area before 10," Grey revealed suddenly.
Don stared at him for a moment.
“What? What area?” He asked, confused.
Grey sighed.
“Here’s what I’ve decided on.
This meeting by ten is a trap by Audrey.
Remember what Lan said.
He said Audrey was going to use my man against me.
It looked like Audrey knows about Lan already which was why he transported Naomi from Atomic Liquors,” he explained.
Don blinked once, then twice.
He was too confused.
He wasn’t really intelligent anyways.
"Wait, I don't understand what you are saying." Grey chuckled slightly.” Initially, I called Lan but he didn’t pickup.
He was supposed to send me an 'X' code to show I called at the wrong time but he didn’t.
Instead, he sent me a text.
And hours later, the code came in.
He must have gotten a phone through another means to send me that text.” Don thought for a moment.
" But what if the text is the trap? I mean he had once sent a message for usto meet him at a location.
It’s not strange,” Don complained.
Grey nodded.” It’s not, Don but the code is.
No one would have been able to arrange the code that way, even though they know about the code.
Do you even know what it meant by its arrangements?" He raised skeptical brows and waited.
Don shook his head slowly.
