Chapter 121 - New Lead (2/2)

”Anything for you sweetheart. Anything for you and your smile.” Adam replied, pressing a feather like kiss in the side of her head.

”Shall we?” Adam extended his hand before her which she willingly took.

Under the cloudless night sky, the duo ate their dinner in harmony as the sounds of waves crashing against the shore could be heard in the background. The full moon shone over the duo, brightening up the dark sky.

”Boss?” Lillian entered Blake's room without bothering to knock as usual.

”What is it?” He asked her in a soft tone.

”I have a new lead.” She replied as she made her way towards him.

He was sitting leisurely on the couch as a laptop was placed before him. His eyes were glued to the video that was being played on the screen. A man was being beaten black and blue by two guys who were as big and burly as their victim himself.

Lillian sat down directly on his lap as she turned off the laptop.

Once she had his undivided attention, she started to speak about the matter she had actually come to discuss with him.

”Regarding the assignment you gave me, I have a new lead. I don't know for sure who the culprit is and exactly whom we should target except for the fact that the person is a man. But I have a plan to lure him out. And I need your help with it.” She spoke up in one go.

”This humble servant is always at your service. Tell me what is it?” Blake replied as he twisted her body and pinned her down on the couch, his lips claiming hers.

Stella entered their bedroom with Adam following her closely behind. She couldn't see a thing in there as the entire room was engulfed in darkness.

”Can you please turn on lights?” She asked him to which he complied.

As soon as the lights were turned on, Stella looked around in awe.

The entire room was decorated with red roses and star shaped fairy lights. The sky blue floral bed sheets were now changed into plain white, silk ones. A number of rose petals were set in the centre of the mattress in the shape of a heart.

She turned around to look at Adam, only to find him staring back at her with his darkened gazed. He slowly and leisurely made his way to where she was standing and cupped her face, smashing his thin lips against her soft ones.
