Chapter 131- The Secret Package
I waited until he sent me the details along with his account details and then I quickly sent the money to him.
‘Nice doing business with you,’ his curt reply came as soon as I messaged him that I had sent the money with proof of payment.
I looked at the information from my computer and it had everything, his age, his family, wife and even a picture of him. This guy wasn't just a hacker, he was a fucking investigator.
I looked at the picture of the man as I racked through my brain wondering where I know him from.
After checking every faculty of my brain I concluded that I haven't seen him anywhere.
What was suspicious was that he had a small jewelry business then why did he want the Emerald eye?
Hmm, something was very fishy in this picture.
I went back to reading the details that were sent to me and kept reading over and over. Why would this man think that the Emerald eye doesn't belong to the Miller's? I'll have to show this to my boss.
I stood up from my chair as I took my tab and walked out of my office,
I knocked on her door and her quiet voice told me to come inside,
“ Hello ma'am, there's something I'd like to show you," I said as I walked further into her office,
“ Does it have something to do with that man we met earlier today?" she asked,
“ No ma'am," I should have known she wouldn't easily forget about it,
“ It's something else," I said,
“ Oh, okay what is it?" she asked,
" So about the message we received that night, I had someone trace the number,” I said,
“ Oh really? Did the person find anything?" she asked, of course, if he didn't I wouldn't be standing here, I thought to myself but didn't dare say it out,
“ Yes, he send me this," I said as I handed my tab to her,
She started looking at the information, squeezing her brows in concentration,
“ Ambrose Aaron, who is he?" she asked,
“ According to the information given to me, he's a small business jewelry business owner, you can find everything about him there," I said as I pointed to my tab not wanting to go over the details again because I know she's definitely going to keep interrupting me with questions,
The office was quiet as she was focused until she finished reading everything and then she turned to look up at me,
“ I think we should visit him," she said,
“ I don't think that's a good idea, we can have someone follow him around and besides he's not here in Las Vegas," I said,
" I wonder what this man wants with my family, he could be the one with the Emerald eye, we have to see him Hardin, we have to, find out his address and every other information you can about him, we're going to Italy,” she can't be serious,
" You want us to go with Italy?” I asked and she looked at me like she was asking me if I had a problem with it,
“ We have to find out if he has the Emerald eye, I fucking need that jewelry back, sooner or later my grandpa is going to notice it's missing,” she said in anger,
" What if he's dangerous? Do you think he'll just give it back to you just because you showed up at his doorstep,” I asked,
“ I'm going to make him, I don't care how," she said and I scoffed,
“ Yeah, you're going to make him, how do you plan on doing that?" I asked,
“ When we get there you'll find out," she said,
“ I'd like to find out now," I said,
“ I said you'll…"
“ Miss Miller,..." I said cutting her off,... “ things don't work out like that, you just don't work into lions den, that's asking for trouble,” I said,
“ What if I'm a lioness myself? We're going to Italy and that's final," she said and I looked at her in anger,
“ As you wish Miss Miller, if you don't mind, I'd like my tab back," I said as she handed me back my tab and without a word I walked out of her office,
She thinks she's always right just because she's the boss.
Just because we know little about this Ambrose Aaron as some small jewelry business man doesn't mean we know everything about him, what if the moment we land Italy he knows and have us killed? It was better we had someone watch him and report to us,
“ She doesn't fucking listen," I groaned as I sat on my chair,
Now I have to do what she wants because she's the boss.
Well, she can do whatever she wants.
I got back to work and the day went by in a blur and soon enough it was time to go home,
I arranged my things in my bag and stood up as I walked to my boss's office,
I knocked on the door and didn't get any response, I couldn't help but roll my eyes, I was used to the attitude,
I opened the door and there she was going through some papers,
“Is there anything you'd like me to do for you Miss Miller?” I asked,
“ As you can see Hardin I've got work I'm trying to finish," she said, yeah I saw that and that's why I'm fucking asking her if she needs my help,
Why is this woman so difficult?
“ I know Miss Miller, that's why I'm asking if there's any you want me to handle,"
She looked through the paperwork she was handling and then passed some to me,
" Review them for me,” she said,
" Okay,” I said as I took the documents to the couch and then I started looking through them,
About an hour later we were still busy, and she wanted to do this alone.
My eyes suddenly went to her and I saw her trying to push her hair behind her neck, why won't she just tie the hair? Our eyes met for a second so I quickly removed my eyes from hers, now was not the time.
By the time we were done my neck was killing me.
“ Good night Miss Miller," I said as I closed the car door and waved, I watch the car drive off before I walked to mine and got in,
“ I'm fucking tired,” I groaned as I flexed my neck,
I started the car and drove home, listening to soft music and jamming to it,
When I got home I drove into the garage and parked my car as I stepped out.
My back was aching and all I needed right now was a shower and good sleep.
I walked to my door but I immediately stopped when I noticed a package lying just in front of my door.
I scrunch my brows in confusion, who could have dropped this here? Vera should be home by now how come she didn't see it?
I picked the box as I looked at it,
I took the note as I opened it and my heart skipped when I saw what was written there,
