Chapter 261 - Act (2/2)

”Yes Master.” He replied courteously. He was happy to have been saved today and all the credit went to Jared's assistant. He thanked him in his mind and went to follow his next orders.

He first called his men and commanded them to follow the four people. When everything was set, he then proceeded to finish his next orders. He went towards the apartment building and tried to see any possible way to slip in without being noticed. But the gates were locked and it would open only if the person was a resident or if he was given permission to enter. Now, the problem was neither was he a resident nor did he know anybody here. So, how was he supposed to get inside?

When he trying to find a solution, he noticed an old woman walking towards him and an idea struck his mind. As soon as the woman came near him, he acted as though he was feeling dizzy and fainted right in front of her, terrifying her. The woman was a kind hearted person. She rushed to the man and tried to hold him.

”Oh my God. Dear, what happened to you?” He patted his cheeks softly trying to wake him up. But the man remained sleeping. He did not have any intentions of opening his eyes. The watchman came running hearing the old woman and he too was shocked on seeing a man lying unconsucious before him. He knew the lady as she was a resident of the apartment he worked as a watchman for.

”Madam, what happened?”

”This young guy fainted before me.” The woman replied. ”Do you have some water?”

”Yes Madam.” The watchman went back and returned with a bottle of water.

The lady sprinkled some water on Tim's face and this time he could not continue his act. He moved slowly and opened his eyes.

”Are you alright dear?” The lady asked in concern and Tim smiled inwardly.

'Emotional fools.'

”Yes. I am fine now. Thank you for your help.” He said and tried to get up.

”Can you get up, dear?”

”Yes Madam.” Tim got up with great difficulty.

”What happened dear?”

”Nothing madam. I haven't eaten today and I have diabetes. So, this must be it. The low insulin content must have affected me.”

”Oh dear. Please have something then.”

”Yes Mam. I was waiting for my cousin. But she had to leave due to some emergency and now I can't enter without her permission.”

”You can come again some other day right?” The watchman suggested.

”No Sir. I don't stay here. I travelled overnight to meet her and now she is not picking her calls. So, I was waiting for her.”

”What is the name of your cousin dear?” The woman asked picking up her bag, which was lying on the ground.

”Ivy, Ivy West.”

”I know that young lady. Your cousins are sweet girls.” The woman answered and Tim wondered who was his other cousin. Did Ivy have a sibling he did not know about?

”Yes Mam. They are very sweet.”

”If you want you can come and stay in my house until your cousin returns.”

”No Mam. I don't want to trouble you. I will be fine.”

”There's no trouble dear. Come with me.”

”But Mam.” The watchman tried to object. He was not sure if he wanted the man to enter before his identity was confirmed. But the old lady stopped him.

”It's okay. I trust him.” The lady entered the building after pressing her finger on the scanner and Tim followed her with an evil smile on his face.

He had entered the aparment. All that was left was to find Ivy's flat number and break in.
