What the heck is wrong with me? Why am I getting flustered when he’s my freaking cousin? You need to calm down, Sasha!
In an attempt to calm herself, she looked elsewhere to avoid her cousin’s gaze.
“Sir?”
Meanwhile, Solomon’s assistant, who stopped the car in front of the pile of rubble, noticed that he had his eyes fixated on something.
His assistant couldn’t help but wonder if Solomon’s plan had failed once again.
The moment his assistant approached Solomon, he asked, “Have you figured out the identity of the mysterious men?”
“My apologies, but we couldn’t find out their whereabouts since they have been conducting their operations in secret.”
Solomon’s assistant started perspiring in fear as he wasn’t able to complete the assigned task.
Truth be told, he was surprised that there was not a single piece of information on the mysterious bunch after he spent an entire day investigating them.
In spite of being adequately influential, their effort was to no avail as there was nothing they could learn about the mysterious men.
All of a sudden, Solomon muttered, “He has made it out alive once again.”
His assistant gaped at Solomon’s statement and said in disbelief, “What?”
He escaped again?
How can that be? We only informed the militants after they had entered the building! It’s impossible for him to make it out alive without help!
When his assistant was lost in thought, Solomon added, “On top of that, he came back.”
His confused assistant asked, “What do you mean?”
Ignoring his assistant’s question, Solomon immersed himself in his thoughts.
I have been observing Lance throughout the past few days. It’s obvious that he has never once thought of Sasha as his cousin.
It’s not surprising for Lance to get full of himself in front of me. However, he couldn’t care less to show Sasha some respect even when I wasn’t around.
In fact, he seemed irked by Sasha’s presence. Why would someone hold such a strong grudge against his cousin?
That was why I came up with this plan in order to find out the truth.
Immediately after I took her away and left him behind, despair was written all over the young man’s face!
When we fled without him, I saw him glaring in our direction with his hatred-filled eyes! It was as though the last shimmer of hope in him was gone.
I thought he would be out of the picture after that. However, he came back for her even when she only returned half an hour later.
There’s no way they’re just cousins! I’m sure there’s something going on behind the scenes!
