Chapter 110
I walked out of the house, heading to my room to get my phone.
I made sure no one suspected my movements,
_No one should get to see me entering my room. I don't want to arouse any suspicions_
I walked into my room, picked up my pillow. I called Dimitri, I walked to the door to be sure no one was spying on me.
"What do you want, Hailey?" Dimitri asked in an unusual manner.
"Hey there's a big hit I would like you to take care of" I answered in a mild tone.
"What's that if I may ask?" Dimitri said showing interest as I hoped he would.
"It seems Lord Perry's greatest weapon has been sold and would be transported tonight"
"What's our business with that?"
"Can't
you understand the fact that we're supposed to hunt it down"
"You want us to steal that weapon, you know the consequences right?”
"What consequences?" I asked, trying to think of what Dimitri was trying to say.
"That would be war, a great one at that. We stealing that weapon would be to the detriment of our own people." Dimitri warned.
"Why don't you make a copy of that weapon?" I felt proud at the sudden flush of ideas that flooded my head.
"What do you mean?" Dimitri asked, I guess he was yet to understand my plans.
“I'll make reasons to Lord Perry to delay the transportation of the weapon, that would buy us enough time to make a fake weapon" "I'll be needing few items"
"What's that?" I asked happily.
"Get me a bullet filled with Serum and a picture of the weapon" Dimitri divulged.
_That wouldn't be hard, I could get a picture of the weapon. Ryan would help me get a bullet filled with Serum._
"Sure we only have five days to make achieve this plan, just get the job done"
"Ok any other problem?" Dimitri uttered.
_Ask him about Ryan_ Helena divulging.
"Dimitri, please do you know anyone with the name Ryan?" I tried to fulfill Helena's words.
"Haven't heard of it, call you later. Bye". Dimitri hung up.
"Haven't heard of it" Does it mean that Dimitri doesn't know Ryan._
I told you many times that Ryan's not a man to be trusted_ Helena snapped.
"I'll find out more information, as far I'm concerned Ryan's a man to be trusted and I trust him" I said to myself.
I walked out of my room, back to the mansion.
"Where've you been?" Shayne asked in a mild tone.
"Just went to sort out some issues" I replied. She stared at me for minutes before she asked
"Did
you
like the show I let you watch earlier?" Shayne paused as she watched the widening smile on my face.
"Guess you had yourself sorted out. The looks on your face says it all"
I couldn't help but laugh at her words, definitely I had myself sorted out in the best way possible.
"I had myself sorted"
Shayne chimed in
"Tell me was it Jaden or your new found lover Ryan?"
Everyone seems to think that I and Ryan are entangled to each other, which we're not but don't know what the future holds for us_
"It was Jaden," I answered.
"Guess you must be exhausted and tired, just go, I'll tell my father you had little issues with your stomach" Shayne laughed as she held my arms.
"I'm fine and speaking of your father, I would like to have a word with him if you don't mind." I was happy that I even had the chance to talk with Shayne. She would definitely help me get an audience with Lord Perry.
"Okay I'll make that happen, just wait in the corner room at the dining. He'll be waiting for you" Shayne said as she held my hands so we walked in together.
I walked to the dining room, the corner room was at the left.
The room was quite dark, only a lamp placed on a table in the middle with two chairs at the opposite.
"Hailey, why have you brought me out of my comfort zone? I hope your reason is good enough for my sudden exit" Lord Perry warned. He hated distractions when his mind was focused on something.
"Oh Lord Perry, what I intend to tell you is worth every minute you spent here" I said with a mischievous smile on my face.
"Out with it, you're wasting my time and the party's graced with my presence" Lord Perry snapped.
"The weapon you sold is quite too expensive for 200 million. I think there should be another function and this time you should start with 200 million and make a condition to it that the money should be paid within the space of five days, when the pay is complete the weapon would be transported" I advised him in the most accurate way possible.
I watched closely, his countenance changed. He let out a broad smile as he opted for a handshake. I accepted his handshake.
He appreciated my words as he said
"Wow you're really a genius. How did you think of all this in this short space of time? No wonder it's all from your father. I guess he taught you well"
"All thanks to my father" I said as I walked past him to the door.
"Is that the only reason you called me out here?"
"Yes Lord Perry... If you have any task for me to handle. Just tell me I'll do it right away"
"Enjoy the party, maid servant" Lord. Perry laughed as he pushed me aside, walking out of the room.
I almost retaliated but when I remembered that he agreed to my plans. I felt a sudden wave of peace and solace engulf my soul.
"How was it? What did you discuss with my father?" Shayne asked hastily, desiring an immediate answer which I wasn't ready to give so I paused a bit.
"Why the sudden silence? Did my father hurt you?... Father!" She screamed. I pulled her back.
She raised her right hand waving at her father. Everyone categorized her actions as being all happy and jovial.
"We just talked about the weapons, nothing serious though"
"Ok, I'll be in my room in case you need me. Silver called for some assistance" She blinked her eye.
_She's probably going in for a second round. She really sex driven, and I hope Silver's also sex driven which would make them compatible in order to avoid any uprising differences_
I watched Ryan walking. He walked with dignity and self respect. Paying his respects as he walked closer to me.
Jaden pulled out my right hand and planted a soft kiss on the back of my fingers.
"Where've you been? I've been searching everywhere for you. It seems like you're having quite the fun in this party and so sad to say without me"
Out of my curiosity inflamed veins I asked him
"Why did you do that?"
"One of the towns I lived in, this was the only way of greeting or paying respects to old people. I just felt like giving it a try, besides you're my friend, the best one for sure..." He paused, staring at my confused face. He continued
"Wait, you don't like it?"
"There's nothing wrong with it. I'm okay with it, do it more often" I conceded to his thoughts.
"Ok, let's go out for a drink" He chuckled.
"It's late and besides we don't have mobility. Lord Perry would have your head hung on the wall if he finds out you used his car. The guards would also kill you before you even reach the gates" I made him see reasons to abandon his idea and enjoy the rest of the party.
"Who's talking about using his car? I hate driving. Just trust me and say yes to it. I'll take you somewhere we could chill over a bottle of alcohol. We'll be back before you know it and before the party's over" Ryan explained.
His explanation sent shivers down my spine, I was lost in thoughts of what mobility he would use to leave this house without being spotted by a guard.
How does he intend to take me out without being spotted? These questions filled my head as I let out a sigh of disbelief.
"Follow me" Ryan ordered in a calm manner.
"Where are we going?" I asked as Ryan held me by my wrist.
"Just close your eyes... I would like to surprise you" Ryan said as he tore a big part of his suit, he tied it over my eyes. My eyesight was covered absolutely, my vision couldn't go farther than the black material.
I felt the presence of a whirling wind. The wind was so fierce, I thought I would fall off. I held onto his waist.
The wind just stopped instantly, my legs sank into sand, He untied the black material. I saw the moon, the beautiful shape and the warmth of the view was so breathtaking.
