章節 44: Worries
"Dr. Illes, one of your patients in the outpatient clinic requested to see you."
"Who is it and what's the matter?" Sia asked furrowing her brows in contemplation.
"It's the patient that has trigeminal neuralgia to be operated on today at 3pm. As for the reason I am not sure," Clara said with a sigh.
"Okay, got it. I will be heading there then."
Sia tried to think of what could have happened to the patient but all her thoughts were directed to yesterday's events. The call Cain got after their dinner had ruined all the day, as it seemed that his opponent had discovered about his location by a fluke. Cain had to personally hack every surveillance camera to avoid leaving any evidence of his presence. But the damage was already done so for a period of time they would have to be extra careful.
They couldn't even come back home together and each had to take different means of transport back from the island to avoid any suspicion. Even though Cain had texted her in the morning saying that everything was alright she couldn't help but worry.
And now this patient too. She had talked to the woman in the morning, so she wasn't sure what could have occurred for her to want to meet her surgeon. Anyways, she wouldn't know until she went there so all she could do was just to go and meet the person.

"Hey, can we have a talk before we go out today?"
"What is there to talk about?"
"Will, I know you like her, but it was obvious that those two really meant too much to each other. Their bond surely is unbreakable so I hope that you will give up on her and see her just as a friend."
Alex's voice was filled with calmness and solemness, as he wanted the best for two really important people in his life.
Will snorted at his words. With his eyes turning a shade darker, his aura changed from the previous calm one to a cold and ruthless one. Curling his lips into an indiscernible arc he said slowly, enunciating every word;
"Like? No, Alex, you know nothing of my feelings. It's not simple like. No, it's love. With every little or big secret I learn about her I fall for her all over again. But, you don't need to worry. I will never hurt her in any way.
All I need is to have a heart to heart talk with her and I hope that you will give me this opportunity tonight."
Alex looked at his friend helplessly, not knowing what more to do. All he knew was that he needed to be next to Will in the moment of his crisis. So gathering all his thoughts he started,
"Will, I know she is a unique girl and she attracts you a lot. But, you can't just ignore all her hints and the lines she has been drawing. I know it is hard, believe me, I know the feeling of letting your beloved go. Still, you can't just snatch someone else's girlfriend especially when that someone else is one of the most dangerous men in the world."
"I get it, Al. And I promise I won't do anything unreasonable. I just want to tell her about my feelings so that I can relieve all the weight on my heart. Maybe, directly hearing her rejection will help me forget about her faster and easier."
Looking at his stubborn friend deeply, Alex finally conceded and, raising his hands in defeat, told him;
"Okay, I will text Sia and tell her I can't come tonight. You will have all the evening to sort out your future plans with her."
"Thanks," Will nodded with a slight smile on his face.

"What do you mean there is no way of recovering the recordings!? Why the heck am I even paying all of those people if they can't even do the single job they are paid for!?" Luke burst in anger upon hearing the recent report from his subordinates.
The man in front of him was a young man in his 20s. With his pair of thick rimmed glasses, his messy hair and wrinkled suit, he fit the description of a computer nerd perfectly. Upon hearing his boss's outburst he couldn't help but flinch at his place. For god's sake, how was he supposed to win over the undisputed best hacker in the world? He gulped his own saliva and started with a trembling voice;
"Boss, we tried everything. But, the Dragon's team is as strong as ours. We have 50:50 chances of winning in the hacking fight when it comes to his team, but lately the Dragon himself has been taking action. We... we can't do anything when it comes to him."
He finished and looked fearfully at the blonde haired demon in front of him. He embraced himself for an impact as he was sure that the man would lash at him any moment now.
"Do you mean to say there is no damn person who can match him in hacking?"
Luke said through gritted teeth, his temper and patience already at its limits. How could he have these incompetent fools as his team? They couldn't even defeat a single person!
"Boss, I am afraid there hasn't been anyone who had ever defeated him," the man said with his head lowered, but the next second his eyes glowed because of a memory. He raised his head with a complicated glint in his eyes, trying to say something, but being unsure as to how to say it.
"Do I have to wait for long!?"
Luke's frightening voice quickly brought him back to his senses. Gathering all his guts the man finally opened his mouth to speak,
"Boss, the Dragon is the number one in the world, and there are several people who could be considered number three: me and William Harding included. However, Number two is a mystery himself. No one has ever been able to track him and a lot of people say that he is as good as the Dragon. There were rumors that he once defeated number one in a showdown. So..."
Guessing his subordinate's train of thoughts, Luke talked, this time in a much calmer voice,
"What do you know about him?"
"Nothing much. He is really secretive. He appeared around four years ago but with every year he became better and better, making it impossible to trace him."
"Impossible? That's not a word in my dictionary. I don't care how you do it, but if you value that pathetic life of yours you would better find the person and get him on our side."
"Got it Boss! I will go and do my best for it."
Bur before leaving the man tuned back and asked in a little voice,
"Umm, Boss, am I allowed to use your name if anything happens?"
"You can. I don't care what means you use. Coordinate with Paul for anything needed. I care about results, and the only result I accept is the successful one.
Now, get out of my sight. You have a week to find that person."
The man nodded his head quickly and almost ran away from the room. He didn't have any idea who number two was: all he knew was that his life depended on that person.
But before getting that person on their side he needed to first contact him. It sure was going to be a long week for him.
