"I would like to have some work done by today." Acy's voice said.

"I'm all ears," a man's voice replied.

"I want someone to disappear from this world without a single trace. I want them cut into pieces and thrown in the ocean. I want you to record every single detail of him." Acy ordered.

There was silent for few seconds when the man finally replied." And who would that be?"

"My fiancè,"

"Consider the work done."

Riley covered his mouth in shock. He quickly panicked and fished out his phone from the table and dialed Teddy's number but was directed to the voice mail. He re-dialed for several times but to no valid.

He rushed outside but before he could start his car, he recieved an anonymous call.

"Riley speaking,"

"This is King of Hearts Hospital. By any chance, are you Mr. Teddy Tomgreen's guardian?" A woman asked

"Yes," Riley broke into a cold sweat

"His guardian will be needed. Mr. Teddy was in a car accident and died as soon as he reached the hospital. I'm sorry sir for your loss but his guardian is needed to sign the consent form before putting him in the mortuary." The woman explained .

Riley's phone slipped out of his hand. His knees became jelly and his mind suddenly felt empty. Slowly, he slide to the ground and sobbed silently.

"Hello,"

"Hello Sir,"

The nurse tried calling Riley over the other side of the phone but he was so shocked by the news to even lift an inch of his body.

"....."

"Hello Sir, Are you listening to me?" She said, almost pleading for attention.

Riley composed himself with a long personal sob before collecting his phone and pinned it to his ear.

His hands were trembling as he did so.

"Hello, which hospital did you say?" Riley asked in a low voice, trying to hold back his manly tears.

"King of hearts Hospital,"

Riley disconnected the call and rushed down stairs. He ordered the butler to take good care of Marion and exited the house.

In his mind, he was a hundred percent sure that it was Acy who had planned that car accident. After all it was him who wanted his Fiance dead by all means.

He sped up his car to the hospital, Once he reached the waiting lobby, he was blocked by two muscular figures and the dragged him in a dark room without anyone noticing. Things happened way faster than he could take in.

They made him sit on the chair before switching on the lights.

"Who are you guys?" He yelled, his eyes half closed.

"Good day Old man Bentford ," Masha and Shasha said simultaneously bowing their heads slightly.

The old man was shocked. In his head, he had already calculated on how to dodge some of the punches and kicks thrown at him.

He slightly opened his red eyes to observe the faces.

At first glance, he recognized Shasha McKinley but he had no idea who the second guy was.

"What's your deal young men? How dare you kidnap an old man like me?Even if you've got loads of cash, do you think I will let it slide ?" He gave Shasha a piece of mind, rose to his feet and fixed his coat.

As he attempted to leave the storage room, Masha's joking voice rang making him halt his steps.

"Did you love the gift?"

His forehead wrinkled, anger suppressed him that his nose began shaking. He walked back to them and grabbed Masha by his collar.

"Look here young man, I'm not in the mood to entertain your games, I have got important things to take care of. Such that stinking puffy hole you call a mouth before I stick something you might not swallow into it and let me be." He tossed Masha aside and grabbed Shasha

" And you young man, just because you are loaded doesn't mean you gonna stick your quarter dick into someone's hole . Learn to respect people and keep your lady like hands to yourself. I will let you go for the sake of your grand father." Riley pushed Shasha away and walked away.

Adrian happily bought a mango cake and drove to Alsen's house. He rang the bell once and let himself in since he knew the passcode.

"I'm sure Alsen is dying to meet me before our show." He smiled.

On the other hand, Alsen was chosing outfits for the kids.

Today was the dead line of the show he had to walk and he needed to be there a few hours earlier to get ready.

Adrian looked around and saw no one. He placed the cake on the dinning table and matches upstairs.

"Are you sure about this?" Alsen looked at Ros.

"It will look nice to have matching outfits." Ros said

"Yay," Ria cheered

"If you say so," Alsen kissed Ros and Ria's foreheads before putting the clothes at the top right corner of the bed.

He walked to the windows, and closed one leaving one open. His eyes met with Adrian's and they both smiled at each other.

"You could make a good robber. How long have you been watching us," asked Alsen.

" Been here for around 20 minutes. I enjoy watching you. You know that." He licked his lower lip.

Alsen dressed Ria, tied her hair up into a ponytail since it was her favorite hairstyle. Adrian instated on dressed up Ros even when the boy said he knew how to take good care of himself.

"I will be in my room, call me if you need anything." Alsen touched his kids heads before leaving the room. Adrian was observed him that all while.

"Gonna drool over my dad one day." Ros lifted his eye brows

"Oh," Adrian smiled awkwardly and scratched his head.

"We know that you love him," Ria crossed her legs.

"Wait, What? No!" He denied

Ros scoffed.

"We aren't idiots," Ria giggled

"Ok fine I do. I love him so much that I wish..." He was about to say something and realized the he was talking to kids who weren't even three yet.

"Why do I have to explain myself to these little demons." He thought

"You wish we weren't dad's kids because we always get in your way of flirting?" Ros placed the book he was reading down and got on the bed.

His cold eyes looked in Adrian's.

"Do you think we are willing to share our Dad with you?" The boy's serious face and cold eyes made Adrian scared.

He excused himself and ran out of the room, almost stumbling into the wall. "Where have I seen that face before. As cold as ice. As terrifying as hell fire and that voice." Adrian asked himself as he sat in his car

Ros high fived Ria with a smile. They had accomplished something that could save their mom some troubles.

Alsen was in search for an outfit when he received a call from the designer of their outfits.
