Capítulo 125: Good and bad news
Heather's henchmen confirmed that two bodies were found charred in the car by the police. The car was damaged beyond repair and the two bodies were beyond recognition. They were unable to match any dental record as both Tom and Crystal never had any dental history but from the bony structures, it is confirmed a Caucasian male and an Asian female. The estimated age matched the two. Heather was very satisfied with the result and called off her men from Singapore and asked her technical team to stop the facial recognition software search. She was done with the two. She was a bit sad she could not capture the two of them and bring them to her for the ultimate torture but was satisfy enough that the two had the ending they deserve.
Derek and his men finally made some positive progress and were getting closer to Heather's base but as they were about to rejoice they noticed that they could not drill in any further as they might trigger an alarm that might lead to a huge explosion and the end of their lives. Derek cursed the woman a trillion time in his heart and out loud. She even has the gall to setup such security system, she is truly fearless. As he was busy scolding the woman in his head, one of his men who had experience in this sort of alarm and trigger system informed that he would be able to disable and make a dummy system to send data back to the main server as if a breach never happen but they need to cut off the main power supply and he needs to act within a short period of time before the generator kicks in and does it backup duty. He will need at least a week to setup the system. The good news is they are in a spacious cave with some sunlight and nearby water supply, finally a little bit of fresh air.
His men on the ground informed that Heather plans to invite head of other mafia clan for a dinner banquet somewhere next week to solidify her power and during that time, she plans to wow them with some funky laser show, which would consume a lot of electricity and power, they could used that time to trip the power and get things kicking and moving. Derek loves the idea and is proud of his hawk and badger elite team.
My love, I promise you, I'll stay safe and be back soon. I really miss you and hope you are doing well. I hope you miss me too. He took out her picture he kept close to his heart and stare at the woman in the picture, the queen of his heart and kissed it a few times to release the yearning he has. His comrades can only turn a blind eye to his behaviour which is a common recurrence. This is their leader, the well known shameless guy when it comes to his wife.
Jade was looking at the moon, yearning for her lover as well, the moon reminded her of the first time they met, how for the first time, she allowed a stranger to hold her tight and she even shamelessly try to burrow herself deeper into his embrace. She is someone who dislikes human contact, even with Mama Lu, it took her some time to feel comfortable with hugs and kisses.
Her training has taught her how to behave and speak appropriately to strangers, friends, colleagues and subordinates. She required therapy to learn what is socially and culturally acceptable when dealing with people. Somehow with him, she didn't have to rake her brain and behave normal. Derek accepted her the way she was without all the layers she had to put on in order to fit in and deemed normal. Mama Lu used to tell her that she is an onion with lots of layer, only the ones who she can trust would be able to see the core because only the worthy ones would take their time is peeling each layer and withstanding each layers in order to get to the core. Derek is the one who managed to get straight to the core. She really love that man of hers.
She received news about Heather gathering the other mafia families in the coming week, she is going to specially deliver a present for her the same way she delivered April's wedding gift. She will light up the city for her and only to plunge it in darkness. Kwi Shan had been busy compiling information on Heather and has made a breakthrough. Jade is hoping that she can direct Heather's attention to her and miss out on the fact that Derek is there. Thinking about how she is going to mess with Heather's head brought a cold sneer to her lips as she caress her belly. "Mama and Papa will do our best to make sure you lead a safe and peaceful life." She received a kick from inside as an affirmative that he understood her words.
Jess was in a cold war with Jason. He had been grumpy the whole morning and was very quiet with a frequent frown on his face, she knows he lack sleep and is grumpy, hence the attitude but she could not help it but feel irritated. She kept silent, afraid that she might annoy him further. She hated this side of him because she felt like she is walking on eggshells. Jason knows that he should not let out his moodiness on Jess or others but he really is not in the mood. His head is heavy and he had not slept a wink. He went into Derek's office and took a nap, upon waking up he was back to his goofy self.
"Good that you are back to your normal self. If you stay that way any longer, I was thinking of getting myself a new boyfriend. I really can't stand it when you act all grumpy as if everyone owes you a favor...." Jess could not finish her sentence when he just swept her off her feet and gave her a deep kiss. She tried to kick him but he managed to dodge. Finally, she relented. She sigh internally, she can't stay angry with such a man.
"I am sorry. I just lack sleep and was not in the mood. I am only human, would you forgive me?" he spoke breathlessly after the long kiss. She kissed him back to shut him up.
