Chapter 19: Is he an enemy? Or is a a friend?
Lucian sat on his seat in the base as he watched Gabriella check on the men who were busy at their computers. Gabriel walked over to him, handing him the holographic tab he had in hand.
"The headquarters and all branches of the Andre family has been taken down by our men. They probably have nothing left now. The men are returning with their weapons, goods and some of the men. They should arrive soon." Gabriel informed with his hands in his pockets.
"Let me know when they arrive." Lucian ordered as he kept on going through what was just submitted to him. He knew something wasn't adding up because everyone in the seven Van del Turo Clan knows well not to mess with him and now someone actually attacked his goods.
"Get me the record of everything that has to do with them. Their transactions, their locations, who they met and where they met." Lucian ordered and Gabriel bowed before walking away.
After a few minutes, Gabriel signaled to him and he stood up, walking towards the large black double doors which was another entry into the base. The bright light from the sky came from the roof which was opened for some cars to come in through.
Lucian stood there with his hands in his pocket as the men started to offload the crates in the trucks which followed them in. "We got everything valuable there and brought samples. The rest are in the warehouse already." The head of the men informed as they pulled open the crates for Lucian to see what was inside.
He caught sight of a particular strange looking gun and he picked it, looking at it with a raised brow. He removed the bullets from the gun and it was exactly like that which Seraphina was shot with. "The invisible bullet." He muttered before turning to leave. "Check everything and get back to me Gabriel." He ordered as he walked towards Naomi's laboratory where she was busy with what he doesn't know.
"What is it this time?" She asked as she pushed up her lab glasses. He handed over the gun and the bullet to her and she looked at it in total astonishment which suddenly turned to curiosity. "I have seen this design of gun before briefly but I can't quite remember where I saw it."
"Is it here?" He asked and she shook her head negatively.
"No it is not in this clan. Probably another or outside clan. I am not sure. I will go through it. I have run tests on the bullet and I sent the properties I can figure out from it to Gabriel already. Only a few families have some of the materials used and if it is not one of those families behind the attack, someone very powerful surely has a connection to them and has enough power to force it out of them." Naomi explained as she removed the rest of the bullets in the gun with her.
"Okay." Lucian said before stepping out of the lab.
"Your highness, something seems wrong."

A black car drove towards a large mansion by the beach at the speed of lightning. Immediately the car halted, a black haired middle aged man stepped out of the car, rushing towards the main door where two hefty looking men stopped him with their guns pointed straight at him. "You have to let me see Master Storm. It is urgent and important." The man pleaded but the two didn't listen to him till the door was pulled open and a young lady stepped out.
"Sir Andre. Master has been waiting for your arrival." She said with a bow and the man barged in, looking furious. He walked straight to the large living room where a man was seated on a phone call.
"This is not what we agreed on, Titan." He yelled and the man on the phone call dropped the call with a small smile on his face.
"Kyle, you're here. I never expected to see an Andre family in my mansion today." He said with a sly smirk. "What can I help you with?"
"Do not talk to me like you do not know why I am here Titan. We never agreed that Lucian would wipe me out after I stop his goods from moving." Kyle Andre yelled at him angrily. "I have a family to look after and how can I do that with no family business?"
"As promised Andre, I will compensate you for your hard work. Sit down and let's talk about business." Titan said with a small smile as he sat comfortably on the sofa. "Please serve him something to drink."
The maids hurriedly served Kyle something to drink and as he stared at Titan who was already sipping from his own glass, Titan looked at him with a raised brow. "What is the problem? You don't like the drink? Give him a variety to choose from then."
"I will take it." Kyle said as he took the glass to drink a little from it. "So what are we going to talk about now? Will you rebuild everything he brought down for me?"
"Not likely. Give me your daughter for my son and I'll see what I can do about it." Titan said and Kyle slammed his fist against the table angrily.
"That is never going to happen. I was doing you a favor by attacking him. No one dared to attack Lucian Van del Turo's goods, and I did it. I cannot give you my daughter…" Before he could finish, he grabbed his neck as if he was choking. "What… what's going… on…?"
"I could already figure you would reject my offer." A chuckle came from Titan's lips. "Once he dies, get rid of his body. And those who came with him."
"Yes sir." The lady standing right next to him bowed and stood up.
"Asked him to attack Lucian? Very funny of a man."
