Time had already shown at five in the morning when Andrew and Clark finally arrived at the official house. Clark parked the car in the yard, while Andrew first walked to the door and unlocked it. The living room was immediately brightly lit when the switch near the door was pressed.
“I'm so sleepy,” muttered Clark while unbuttoning his shirt.
While walking towards the room, the man took off the clothes he had been wearing all day and put them in a laundry basket. His stocky body looked sticky and greasy. He took a towel and headed for the bathroom.
“Do not shower with cold water. Your body could be in shock. You haven't had enough sleep and rest,” scolds Andrew as he walks into the kitchen.
“I know!” shouted Clark from inside the bathroom, “Just want to wash your face.”
Andrew poured hot water into two cups filled with coffee powder and a spoon of sugar. He took a spoon and stirred the solution until a distinctive aroma wafted in the air. The man leaned against the table with one hand holding the coffee cup, blowing the hot drink away before sipping it a little.
He stood up while staring blankly at the display mirror attached to the wall. His mind glared far away, thinking of all the possibilities and the best path that could be taken. They rework each plan and devise a plan-B if all does not go as he expects.
“What are you thinking?” ask Clark who's changed into a white T-shirt.
His face looks fresher. He approached the table and picked up a cup of coffee that was still pumping hot steam. This made him really like Andrew. Although it looks cute and cold, actually the man is warm-hearted. He never counted or thought of himself.
“Drew?” call him again Andrew just fell silent and blew a mouthful of hot liquid in his cup, “What are you planning?”
“Everything,” replied Andrew slowly.
“Oh, I forgot. Didn't we just introduce ourselves to Sakamoto Keiko by our real names? You think that's okay? I just remembered it when I was washing my face earlier.”
“No problem. Following Mr. plan. Tanaka, I will use my real name to lure Kobayashi at the charity event later.”
“Oh ... I didn't think about it getting there,” Clark replied with a beard, “So, you'll be using the name Andrew Roux .... um, you think that's okay?”
To be honest, Clark was a little worried when he remembered the carelessness he had done earlier. Using your real name while on duty is not recommended. The enemy can trace everything from just a piece of the name you mentioned.
“EEL members are not officially registered in any country agency, so even if they manage to trace my name, it will only connect it to my father or Phoenix.Co, don't worry.”
“I mean, if something happens and they come after you, wouldn't it harm your father and Phoenix.Co?”
“I'll tell Alfred just in case. He definitely knows what to do.” Andrew sighed softly and patted Clark on the shoulder. “Thank you for worrying about me. You also be careful.”
“Hum,” muttered Clark while waving, “I can take care of myself, don't worry.”
Andrew put down his empty cup and walked towards the room. He wanted to clean up and rest for a while. However, before doing so, he wanted to send an e-mail to Old Alfred. Indeed, he hopes all plans run smoothly, without significant obstacles. But isn't it better to be on guard before something unwanted happens?
The man sat down by the table next to the bed and pulled out the laptop from his bag. After typing and explaining the situation briefly, Andrew let out a slow sigh and stared at the monitor screen with slight hesitation.
“Hah .. I hope Old Alfred does not do something that makes everything more runyam,” muttered the man while pressing the enter button.
Currently he really did not need any additional problems from his father that forced him to get married that soon. At least, until he manages to get Keiko's heart. Until that day comes, he will definitely step towards the altar willingly.
Baby, I missed you ....
Unknowingly Andrew bit his lips and pressed his chest back to rustle. Suddenly he was eager to see the girl again. How to get it ....
Pluck up!
“Aw!”
Andrew shrieked softly as he rubbed his temple. He stared at a pen that had just hit his head and rolled on the floor. His eyes narrowed, then turned towards the door. Clark stood there smiling broadly without feeling any sin at all.
“Your brain can be damaged if it continues like that,” Clark said as he turned his index finger next to his head, “I'm really worried—“
“You!”
Andrew slammed the table and stood up quickly, but Clark had already darted away with satisfaction.
“Clark! Come here!”
“No want!”
“I'll kick your ass!”
Clark ran into an empty room near the kitchen and closed the door as quickly as possible. He chuckled as Andrew tried to break down the door that had been locked.
“I will call Jovanka here if you insist on replying to me,” threatened Clark from behind the door.
Bugh!
Andrew punched the door leaf in annoyance.
“Basic son of a bitch!” then turn around and walk away.
He knew Clark was pretty desperate and really annoying. The crafty man would definitely do what he threatened if Andrew kept pressing.
“I will break your hand if you dare to invite that woman here!” andrew shouted before entering the room and locking the door.
He took a towel and headed for the bathroom. After setting the water temperature to lukewarm, Andrew washed his dull-looking face and soaped it clean. Andrew's movements suddenly stopped.
“How about I kidnap her, take her somewhere, change identity and live happily ..”
Andrew watched the reflection of his face in the steamy mirror, looked straight at his dark bead and sighed softly, “The child's speech was not entirely wrong, my brain could be messed up if I kept thinking about Sakamoto Keiko.”
