Her Detective Work

They all entered Kris's penthouse but Kris made sure Tye was not allowed in. He did not need any more of his perverted thoughts contaminating Kris's.

Kris threw the bag on floor. "Make sure to hell Hugh to get his problems sorted out." Kris demanded.

"Yes." Collin replied. "What are you going to do about the news scandal on the boy band?"

"That was only to slow down the Yang company. We'll blow it up later if needed. How is the mole?"

"His performance is still good. He knows that we are constantly watching his every move, and he would not dare run away or tell on us." Kye spoke.

"And that man?" Kris was referring to the mysterious man with a scar, the one who shot Lena and Gary.

"We know he had not left the city nor has gone underground. My assumption is that he hiding in plain sight but someone with high security too."

"Kris… you should go rest. You just recovered from the drugs… we can talk about this another day." Collin suggested.

Kris nodded. He picked up the bag Lena gave him and headed to his bedroom. Collin and Kye left the penthouse. Tye was outside the door like a dog eagerly waiting for its master.

"Done already?" Tye asked.

"You should stop teasing Kris like that." Collin spoke.

Tye draped his arm on Collin, ignoring Kye, as they walked to the elevator. "But you head it too! He asked her how it felt to be hugged! So they hugged!! I can't even get the man to hug a pillow with a woman on it!"

Kye was confused, as he was not there to hear the phone conversation. "Who did he hug?"

Tye slapped Kye on the back. Kye's head was a bit too tall for him to reach. "You're as dumb as Kris, no wonder he made no improvements. Don't you worry, let your big brother handle this."

Collin and Kye did not like the way he said that. Tye's way of things… are too out of the world.

It was a Saturday today and Lena had nothing planned for today. She could have slept in, but she woke early for some morning exercises. She jammed up her music and started with some light warmups.

She would usually run on the treadmill but did not want her normal heavy routine today since her body was not 100% yet. Instead, today she worked on her arm and leg strengthening. Next week when she is in top-notch shape, she will start some heavy self-defense training with James.

After her morning exercise, she took a quick shower before preparing a small breakfast. Lena did not have a big appetite this morning so she had a fruit salad and yogurt milk. After breakfast, she went to her room to grab her laptop and head to her art room.

Lena's art room was where she would work on her art. Lena had a natural talent for painting and sculpting. Since she moved here, she had not done anything except designed the room for future use. Lena thought that this would be a nice place for her work area. Lena placed a ginormous pinboard on the wall.

She took out her crafts and started decorating the wall with her conspiracy.

The main enemy target is Madam Yang. She is associated with the Bai family, Bai Wei and Bai Wentao. Working for her, she has Eva and Scarman. Lena did not know his name so she nicked him Scarman. For Madam Yang's family, she has Andy as her older son and Gary as her younger son with an unknown man. Eva is engaged with Andy and Eva is colluding with Madam Yang.

Now for the Li family. Mr. Li Jun was the father of Kris, who is now deceased for three years now. Madam Li was in a coma for 8 years….

Lena stopped and tried to do some math.

Kris was 5 when the accident happened and 13 when his mother woke up again. He was 23 when his father died and now he was 26.

His condition could only be that severe if it happened during his childhood… most likely during the years that his mother was comatose. Lena put up an unknown woman next to Li Jun. She remembered that there were rumors of Li Jun having a mistress while his wife was in a coma. There were rumors that Kris was not Madam Li's child too.

The first one seems plausible, but Lena did not believe the second one. The way Kris and Madam Li acted towards each other, they are true mother and son.

And the last one was Lena. She put herself off to the side for now, next to Gary. To completely understand this theory, Lena needed to fill in some information.

Who is Gary's father? How is Madam Yang associated with the Bai Family? And what does this have to do with Madam Li's accident? Political, money, power, or personal.

Why did Madam keep Eva alive? Who is Scarman? Does this rumored mistress exist?

Lena stepped back and looked at her amazing piece of detective work. She closed her eyes. Each time she finds something, it unlocks a longer trail to unknown questions.

Lena phone rang and she looked at the caller ID. It was from an unknown number. Lena was unsure if she should answer it or not. She let it ring longer before picking it up.

"Hello." She answered.

"Miss. Shen?" A familiar voice asked.

"Who's this?"

"It's me, Doctor Tye. We met yesterday?"

"Ah.. yes, I remember you, Doctor Tye." Lena wondered how this man even got her phone number. Did Kris give him her number? Her number should not be easily given to his buddies….

"Please, please.. Just Tye is fine. Can I call you Lena too?"

"We are not that close."

"Oh…" Tye felt heartbroken, especially how she was using a line Kris said to her. "Then.. Miss. Shen, are you free today?"

"I am not free." Lena lied. This guy was creeping her out a bit.

"Not even free to talk about Kris's condition?" Tye taunted her. He knew that she must be somewhat curious about that.

"Doctor Tye… I am assuming you are Kris's doctor."

"Yes I am… his doctor for everything!" Tye was proud to say that.

"Would that not be breaking your doctor to patient privacy information?" Lena inquired.

"Ahahhahha." Tye burst into a small laugh. Lena was indeed a smart and thoughtful woman. "Then how about Gary?"

Lena was curious not. She had not had news about him for a while. She wanted to ask Kris if she could go visit him tomorrow but since the event of last night, Lena felt a bit uncomfortable. She regretted giving him the clothes back yesterday. Would he see that she laundry his underwear too? Ugh…embarrassing.

"Didn't Kris tell you? I am also the Doctor overtaking the care for Mr. Chen. Unless you are saying I can't tell you about Gary too because that breaks doctor and patient privacy."

"Doctor Tye… I am Gary's emergency contact though. I have full rights for his information as per his medical paperwork states so."

"Can I not taunt Miss. Shen to come out with me at all today? I will pay for the food…." Tye tried one more time.

"Well! Why did you not start with that first? Free food is always worth my time." Lena smiled. She was actually just more curious about Gary's condition. And maybe, she'll get some other stuff out from Tye.

"Great! I'll come to pick you up at noon?"

"That works."

Lena hung up and looked at the clock. She has about 1 hour to prepare. That should be enough for her to get ready.

She called James and told him that she will be going out today. She is meeting with a friend and James should just stay close and incognito.
