Chapter 80 - Morse Code Part 1 (1/2)

Andromeda is facing her computer built-in on a protective armored case. She kept monitoring the blinking of the red light located in Madagascar. She started writing the blinked since it seemed to be a message.

”Morse code.” She muttered and started writing it letters by letters.

Morse code can be detected through beeping or signal lights. Sight and hearing are used with this code.

”A-G-E-N-T. Agent.” She muttered. ”F-O-X. Fox.” She continues monitoring it. ”S-E-N-D H-E-L-P. J-U-N-G-L-E. W-A-R.”

She washed her face with her palms in frustration. What if, this is a trap? And someone had learned about her secret mission. The mission that she only knew and Agent Fox? She thought that he's already dead after searching for years.

Jungle war. It is the code that they talk about when terrorists would hunt down species and find the treasure that they've been searching for years. The contents of the treasure are gold and gems. But they aren't after those but the scroll that an ancient tribe hide that contains the future of the world.

She must fund Fox. Only he could tell her what happened and how is there a jungle war? Okay, so she contemplated for a while. If she sends someone to help, she will jeopardize their secret mission if she sends untrusted ones or even maybe people she trusted. She doesn't know who to trust with this kind of mission but herself.

Someone knocks on the door that interrupted her. She closed the briefcase and Zach open the door. She smiled at him sweetly and stood from her swivel chair. She strode to him and kissed his lips.

”You came home early?”

”You seemed busy.” He wrapped his arms around her.

”Yeah, just work.” She took him out and helped him undress. ”I haven't cooked dinner, so I told our maids to do it.” She put all his clothes to the laundry basket and help him pick up something comfortable.

”How's your day?” He asked her.

She understood that it's one of his way to get information about her work. He's that overprotective that he wanted to know every dangerous mission. The secret mission that she's been hiding for four years was the one in Madagascar and she never let him know and lied to him. It's white lies just to protect him from getting too worried. She loved him so much and she doesn't want him to get involved and get hurt.

”It's good. I got to cook for you and visit you at your office.” They walk hand in hand downstairs to the dining room.

Their dinner is settled from the twelve-seater table. She reached the turkey and put a piece on his plate. She also put fresh lettuce.

”You've been so busy, honey?” She asked.

”Yes, lots of meetings and meet up with new investors. It's hard to choose wisely about the investors and I must double-check their background. We are attracting more investors these days.”

”It's good news honey, right?”

”Yeah.” He sliced a small piece of turkey to his mouth. She's only eating a vegetable salad without dressing and she continued feeding him with green leafy vegetables with the turkey meat.

”Just tell me if you need help.” She said.

”Thank you, my Goddess. I have to provide for us, but I'll let you know.” He winked. ”Love, you don't have to work hard. You knew that I could give you a luxury living that would last for a thousand years.”

”I know. But it's the responsibility…”

”Okay. If that's what you wished so be-it. All I care about is your safety.”

”I know. Don't worry. I will be very careful. Okay?”

They talk for a while just about their day and flashbacks from their past. Then they went to their room and watch TV and some random movie. The movie is all about high school and just like that, they talked about it.

”I remember that you got a very obsessed suitor back in high school.” He told. ”I was watching you from afar and you ignored everyone.”

”Really?” she asked puzzled from his statement. ”I didn't remember it all.”

”Yeah, because once you see the letter you just looked at it and give it to your seatmate.”

”You are stalking me?” She asked facing him. They are at different levels, but she never got a chance to be in freshmen and sophomore because of her intellect. So she transferred to the third level.

”No. I happened to saw you many times. But the guy transferred when your brother confronted him.”

”Hmm.” She rubbed her chin. ”Maybe I know the guy and maybe I ignore it many times.”
