Chapter 316 - Team of six (5) (1/2)

~Seattle~

After logging off from the conference call Sophia noticed that Felix is not moving. His expression is grim. ”Felix, dear? Are you OK?”

”Do you know this Steven person?” Felix looked angry.

”I've met him few times.” Sophia was confused. 'What got into him?'

”What do you think about him?” Felix was talking through his teeth.

”I don't have an opinion of him. Other than exchanging greetings, I didn't get a chance to talk to him. He came with Jeffrey for business meetings... ” Then Sophia realized, ”Are you worried that he is dating your sister?”

”She didn't tell me about him.” Felix looked at Sophia and pouted.

”Maybe they just started dating.” Sophia guessed, trying to pacify him.

Felix didn't respond. His jaw was tightly clenched, and his mouth twitched.

Sophia got an email notification. ”Sarah sent links... let's check out the club she will go into tonight. I'm very concerned. There are so many things that could go wrong. I wish that she does not do this...”

Seeing that Sophia is worried, Felix came back to his senses and returned to his usual self and comforted Sophia. ”Sarah is smart. She knows what she is doing.”

In the back of his mind he decided to go next weekend to Los Angeles and to see who is that Steven with enough courage to date his sister. If Sophia is reluctant to go, he will persuade her... he still has few massaging techniques to demonstrate which he keeps for emergencies.

Few minutes before nine, Vivian came to Sarah's apartment. Sarah put on her best smile, which she practiced for a long time in front of a mirror, and greeted her.

Aiden didn't come out of the study room. He was not sure that he would be able to control himself. He was watching two of them chat in the living room through surveillance. 'If I didn't find solid evidence, I would never suspect Vivian.' She looked so natural when talking to Sarah, he could not detect any sign of malice coming from her.

Not long after, girls headed to Reflex. Sarah went to the study room to say bye to Aiden.

”Why is he not coming out?”, Vivian was curious as two of them headed to the elevator.

”He is just swamped with work.” Sarah shrugged.

At the main entrance, Hugo greeted them with great smile while holding the door open for them. ”Well hello, Miss Hill... I didn't see you in a while.”

”Hi Mr. Alvarez”, Sarah dryly greeted the doorman who was flirting, as usual.

Vivian didn't mind Hugo's advances, and was happy to chat with him. That made Sarah curious if Vivian got over Gabriel or was Gabriel also a lie. Now that she knows that Vivian betrayed her, Sarah admired her acting skills. Sarah felt regretful about how she treated Gabriel, she was harsh only because of Vivian. If she didn't think that Vivian is her good friend, she would never meddle in Gabriel's personal life.

Sarah and Vivian took a cab to Reflex.

Aiden tracked Sarah through the GPS on her ring. As soon as he observed that they started moving rapidly, he got down to the garage, took his Mercedes and drove to a storage house where he left his car and switched to a white pick-up truck that they prepared in advance. 'This will be poetic justice...' Since Sarah was in the back of the white pick-up truck, unable to move when they drugged her, Sarah wants the perpetrators to experience the same.

He drove to the Reflex, parked in the back of the parking lot, close to the back entrance and watched video feed from the club, on his laptop. ”I'm in position, watching you. Be careful, baby.”
