Chapter 42 Terrified

A mesmerizing figure walks his way gently in the hotel, make the all staff glared amused at he. His look was so enchanting that it makes the females staff to gaped lustfully at him. Admiring his looks and wondering who the hell is this handsome devil.

There was no emotions in his face as he seem serious and he keeps on walking on the corridor. Coming to the hotel today he wasn't going to hear that the same old story for Mr Rogers, he believes Mr Rogers must have fixed it by now if not his little company would paid dearly for it.

Lim have only given him three days to find this unknown girl called Rosary.

Behind him was his men, following his every steps.

Meanwhile,in Mr Rogers office, he had been bitting on his fingers, thinking of what to do to fixed this mess. He knows if Mr Charles comes back there, it would end good. Who must have been this bastard that touch the lion tail. If it was some unknown rich man, he would have easily shut him up but not this man.

Mr Charles is not a good man that any idiots can play games with. What terrified him the most was the friend Mr Charles refer to. If Mr Charles can be a heartless man with no mercy, what about his friend?

Mr Rogers thought to himself. As the horror of fear had eaten him up. He couldn't think straight or what he was going to do. This was too much to handle.

He hit his head on the desk frustratingly. This is the end road for him, but what pains him most was that staff didn't care and refused to cooperate with him. They thinks this a game but no! It the death road for him! 

Suddenly, the door barge out in a frightful way, make the man more frighten, as he lift up his face to meet the figure that just barge into his office like he was the owner.

"Good day, Mr Rogers" Charles greeted him with a amusingly smile."I hope your day have been good?" The man mocking voice asked. 

Mr Rogers who couldn't obliged tried to respond firmly...

"Very..well... Mr Charles" he stammer in fear.

"Good, since your day went well I believe you have find what I'm looking for?" Charles asked while he take his seat on the guest chair. ....

"Mr.... Charles, I have tried to look for this girl but no of my staff was able to give me the information I need. All of them said them don't know about this girl. And haven't seen her before"

"Ohh, are you trying to say my friend was lying?" Charles furrowed his eyebrows at him.

"No...no Sir, I have never said that, all I want to say was that I need more time to find this girl and promise to bring her to you immediately I get my hands on her" Mr Rogers said while sweating profusely.

" You need more time?" Mr Charles asked innocently.

" Yes Sir." Mr Rogers nodded like a obedient child....

Charles laughed in a mockingly tone.

Mr Rogers wonder what must have amused him that makes him laugh. Without knowing what making the man in front of him laugh. Then, he joined him.

Immediately, Charles stops, his face was now more serious than his previous expression.

" Who told you to laugh?"

" Eh? I thought it would be better if I joined in the laughing"

" And did you find it better when you join?"

Mr Rogers shook his head, signal no to his question.

" I think you have a lot of free time that make you forgotten your place Mr Rogers" he slaps his finger and one of his subordinates bought out a black shiny gun from his pocket and handle it over to Mr Charles.

Suddenly Mr Rogers felt himself melting anxiously. Is he going to died now? His eyes grow more in fear and he tried to hold his breath...

"Do You know what this is? Mr Rogers?"

Mr Rogers nods his head firmly. " Good, because this can be the owner holding your life between death and life within five minutes"

" Please.... please...Mr Charles. I promise to find the girl and bring her to you please just give me some more time I begged you"

" But I work with time Mr Rogers. And time wait for no man" he said devilishly and smirk. Enjoying the nervousness in the man face 

***************

Lilah have gotten home. In her velvet living room was a man seated on one of the couch. He was wearing the same simple casual outfit but this time he added a sunglasses..

Immediately Lilah entered, the man stood up and bowed.

"Welcome Young Miss" the man greeted.

"I have told you times with numbers that I'm not to be address as Young Miss. My life isn't in the mansion anymore." She scolded while dropping off her handle bag on the one of the couch before having her seat delicately.......

"As you wish milady" the man seated back on his couch. "Now, tell me what have you gotten from Mr.X?"

The man heaved a deep sighed..

"Milady, the man is invisible to us. His identify was hidden too secretly that no man can reach except he choose to reveal himself" the man explained...

" Are you trying to say that this man can not be found? "

" Yes milady, his life was too deep for anyone to dig into. I believe this man might be a dangerous under world lord. It would be better if we just let this case go since your friend isn't in the state. It would be difficult for he to find her. "

What the man was saying actually makes sense but Lilah instincts still doubt that Mr X would give up on her friend. She remembers the word the man said on the phone to her that day. She couldn't forget his tone and the way he mentioned the words from his mouth...

"You don't have to deliver her to no man except me. Understand? " His voice was full with authority and command that day. She can fully remember it very well. She doubt the fact Mr. X would give up that easily on Rosary. She need to make a step in order to protect her friend from this unknown beast.

She had deal with men like him in the past and know how the system works. Men in high post never let go of something them have already marked.

Mr. X have marked Rosary to be his property and in order to remove that mark was to kill the beast. She can't allowed her friend to experience more nightmares in her life. She had passed into those paths before and known how it goes.

If Mr Robin couldn't help her to get the true identity of this bastard. Then she had to do it herself even though it means by going back to the forbidden paths she had promise herself never to go to. She was ready to do that all for sake of protecting her friend....

"Ok Mr Robin. I think had to since Rosary isn't in the state again. And thank you for your help this past few days"

"You don't need to thank me milady. Remember you are my responsibility and I had to do anything you demand"

The man stand up. " Milady, I think I have to take my leave now" the man alarmed.

" Okay Mr Robin" the girl answered, while still sitting on her post. The man waved out of the room

When he gets out, he sighed a relief breath.

Thank God that works. He exclaim inside.

He had manage to get some information about this Mr. X, Lilah was talking about. And from the record that was bought to him, scared him to the bone. The man who was called Mr. X was no other than

Mr Lim Walter, the dangerous man in the underworld. How did Lilah roam into the hands of this dangerous man. In order to protect the girl for the wrath of this beast, he had to lied for her to stop with the investigation of finding Mr. X true identity

That man is just like the beast living in hell!
