Edward had been sceptical about taking her back to the mall, but she'd assured him it was best Tai didn't know that he now knew what was happening.
”It may make things even worse. Just let me go back Edward.”
”Haven't they already figured out you have disappeared?”
Amy had shaken her head, ”I told them I was going to look for things for the baby. Besides, they would have called me by now if they were looking for me.”
She had gone to the mall with Jinn and Tai's wives and when Edward asked, Amy knew nothing about Jinn himself being at the resort.
”They don't let the wives know what's going on. But if I am not around when they want to leave, they'll raise an alarm.”
Edward nodded. It was at this point he finally relented and agreed to send her back to the mall.
”I will come back for you Amy, that's a promise.”
Those were Edward's last words to Amy before he left her at the mall.
He'd grabbed her around the waist which wasn't so easy anymore given her condition, then he'd brought his lips down on hers.
A seal. He wasn't leaving Shanghai without her. The stake out had ended there. They knew enough to work with now, there was no need to keep tailing Jinn Yang.
”Of all the people I expected that would betray me finally, Tai was the least.”
”You say it yourself boss,” Viktor reminded him, ”expect everything.”
”That guy was family, Viktor. My father defended him against the mafia when he left.” Or claimed to.
Edward had figured by now that the move has just been a ruse to keep off the radar while he strategized.
”Even blood can't stop the thirst for power.”
***
Thirty minutes after the call was made, the hotel suite of Edward Wu filled up with more than twenty men, all built and trained by the Chinese mafia.
They were soldiers under the order of Edward himself and somewhere in the tunnels of Shanghai, over fifty sat on standby just in case any man needed to be replaced or the man power from the enemy was more than anticipated.
This was just a glimpse of how resourceful Edward Wu was.
”Good afternoon.” Edward stood in front of the men and greeted.
They were all gathered in his suit that would have contained them comfortably if they weren't built with toned muscles and testosterone.
The room could barely fit them. There was an overflow into Edward's room, but the door had been left open so the occupants heard what the boss had to say.
They was a baritone chorus of a reply to the greeting before Edward continued.
”I've called you here because tomorrow night there will be a battle. A battle between the strongest forces of the mafia and I need your help.”
The men seated in the room had come directly from the training room of one of the toughest martial artists Edward had ever come in contact with.
He was the one that trained Viktor and the only one that Edward trusted to train all the men he sent out to the field.
