My Wife Is A Secret Assassin - Chapter 158

Chance on the other hand, was happy when Edwin chimed in and insisted Carol to agree with this idea. This was a confirmation for Chance that this guy indeed has no idea who Grim Reaper is and wishes to meet all Lucas’ friends to figure this out.

With the information Bill provided him, Chance started thinking like Edwin. He placed himself in Edwin’s shoes and thought what he would do and seeing how he was with Carol, Chance deduced that Edwin is using Carol to meet with her friends in the hope of coming across the Grim Reaper.

Therefore, Chance intentionally focused on inviting Lucas’ friends to the party they will throw to observe Edwin’s reaction, and as expected Edwin fell in his trap.

David looked at Chance in confusion as this party was something they never discussed before but when he saw the glow on Chance’s face, he realized he was laying a trap for Edwin, so he too decided to support him.

“Edward is right. We should really throw this party in Lucas’ memory” David too suggested to Carol.

“Hmm, if you all think elder brother would like it, then sure. I am onboard with this idea” She too agreed with them. When Edward too supported this idea, Carol didn’t wish to go against him and this event was being done in Lucas’ memory so how could she say no.

“Wow, will you be able to throw a party at such short notice?” Mia worriedly asked the three people – Chance, David and Carol.

“Hmm, we can just ask some event planner to work on it and Mia, it would be great if you can take over this event as you are damn good at throwing parties” Chance made a request to which Mia happily agreed with.

“It would be my honour to throw a party in Lucas’ memory” Mia emotionally said.

“Sam, I would have to extend my trip. Would you like to be here with me or you have any commitments which require you to be there in Diego?” Chance asked Samantha, who was deeply thinking of something.

‘How can I let go of the chance, to meet my nemesis?’ Samantha thought to herself but on the outside, she smiled at Chance, “I wish to be a part of this event, which is so important for you”

Chance too smiled back at her, ‘My love too fell in the trap, what a rookie’

“Wow great, I’ll postpone your tickets to this Friday?” David asked them.

“Sam?” Chance pretended like her opinion mattered whereas he already postponed tickets to Friday as he intended to kill Edwin before that.

“Sure, no problem” Samantha was even more excited now, as she would be meeting her nemesis soon.

Chance already postponed their tickets to Friday as he was not sure when exactly he would be able to kill Edwin but he intended to do so, this week itself.

Therefore, David acted along and suggested leaving this Friday, lucky for them Samantha agreed.

David had no idea, what was going on in Chance’s mind but he trusts him so much that he gave him his full support in spite of everything.

“Cool, it is decided then, we are throwing this party. I’ll start the arrangements.” Mia left from there to make a few phone calls.

“Glad we have Mia, or else hosting a party is just impossible” Jack joked to soften the atmosphere.

“Touché” Chance agreed with Jack.

Then they all decided to go head to their homes and meet back at a restaurant to have dinner together.

Edwin and Carol were the first ones to leave.

Jack requested David and Chance to meet him in privacy as he has something important to discuss with them.

He then showed them the diamond ring he is going to use to propose to Abigail. He informed them of how he got it altered while they went out earlier.

That’s when David and Chance realized Samantha and Edwin got some alone time together. This solved the last puzzle in Chance’s mind as he wondered how Samantha and Edwin might have interacted with each other while being in Jack’s presence.

The two men congratulated Jack and expressed how happy they are about his decision.

Then Jack and Abigail left too after bidding them adieu.

Chance and David told the ladies they have a few things to discuss so Mia decided to show Samantha their house.

David and Chance managed to get some alone time together this way and David was dying to know what was Chance’s plan and why he suddenly wished to host a party in Lucas’ memory.

“What is going on in your mind, Chance? What’s the plan?” David locked the study room and anxiously questioned him.

Chance was not sure how to explain his plan to David.

“From what I figured out by now, Edwin is here looking for me and he knows that that I and Lucas are good friends, therefore Edwin wishes to meet all friends of Lucas through Carol to figure out who the actual Grim Reaper is, as he might know how close Maestro and Grim Reaper are.” Chance decided to be honest with David as he would need his help for killing Edwin, which meant he had to be honest with David.

“How do you think he might know all of this?” David suspiciously asked him as Edwin was not supposed to know they were looking for him.

Chance held the bridge of his nose in frustration. Now he had to do something he didn’t wish to.

Therefore, Chance shared the truth of Samantha and Edwin’s close relationship with David and how Edwin knows the truth.

David was silent and calm after knowing the whole truth.

Chance worriedly looked at David as he was sure he was controlling himself to not curse at Samantha for his sake.

“Fine, you can curse her, I’ll let it go this time” Chance could feel David’s anger.

“That Bitch, she took all the information she wanted from us and fucking planned to double cross us. I am going to ruin her career as an assassin. I am going to threaten her, I am going to kill everyone close to her” David shouted as loud as he can.

The walls are sound-proofed so Chance was not worried about Mia or Samantha hearing them.

“How dare she? I am going to have my revenge from her. I have to” David again shouted.

Then David calmed down and sat back on the couch.

Chance offered him a glass of water and once he finished it, he asked, “You fine now?”

David nodded his head, “Calling her a bitch was a bit too much” Chance calmly scolded him.

“Seriously? Seriously Chance?” David was again agitated.

“Why are you getting upset? As I told you, Bill is on our side and he shared the whole truth with me. He even went against the man he considers as a son for my sake, Dave.” Chance tried to pacify David.

“But Chance this Edwin still came here and he fucking got involved with Carol. What if he sleeps with her and impregnates her?” Fear was painted all over David’s face when he thought of this possibility.

Chance raised his eyebrows, “Aren’t you overthinking now?”

“Dude, it is a possibility” David started biting his nails in fear.

“They just started going out, don’t think too much into it. I am sure we can handle Edwin. Just wait for three more days, he will be gone forever. Also, I have a plan to protect Carol from him” Chance promised David and he had a smug smile on his face.

“What’s the plan?” David asked him.

“First let me tell you how I am going to trap Edwin. Edwin and Samantha have no idea that I, Grim Reaper, already knows who killed Lucas and is a step ahead of them.”

“Hmm, right” David nodded his head.

“Right now, Edwin is here to find Grim Reaper so that he can find and kill him, before GR could get his hold on him” Chance took a pause before adding.

“Therefore, I suggested we throw this party and invite Lucas’ friends, which he wants and this way we can confuse Edwin by inviting more people and by opening him to more possible choices of who is the real Grim Reaper.”

“Wow” David liked his idea and added, “Since, Edwin is sure, Grim Reaper will be attending this party as he is a close friend of Lucas and this party would be thrown in Lucas’ memory, he will plan to kill Grim Reaper there.”

“Yes, and I would be taking advantage of it, I will confuse Edwin even more, before revealing myself and will kill him.” Chance shared the final plan.

Chance had to take this step as he wishes to kill Edwin as soon as possible. He can’t let Edwin be on Carol’s side for any more time. He had to kill him before Carol’s feelings deepens.
