One last time - Chapter 294

“So are you both going?” Ron asked.

“It’s Silvia’s wedding banquet for Pete’s sake Ron, there is now way we are missing.” How could Evie possibly miss such an important event?

“Ohh I am sorry, my bad. I thought that you two people were so busy having s.e.x that you wouldn’t want to step out of the house.” Helplessly shaking his head, Ron added, “Like seriously? Are you both planning to compensate for all the years you have missed at once?”

“Geez you are making us sound like s.e.x addicts Ron. It’s not like we have s.e.x all the time.” Evie defended herself.

Ron mockingly chuckled and said, “Yeah right. Maybe you would be having one if I hadn’t invaded your privacy.”

Evie chuckled and shrugged her shoulder, “Well, maybe and besides what is wrong in that? Do you think I did not see those wild marks all over my sister-in-law’s neck, chest and shoulder the very next day she was here? You both did not see each other for six months and you were so impatient, imagine our condition. We did not see each other for years.”

Ron frowned and snapped, “Hey don’t forget that I am your big brother. Though I am very broad minded and practical that doesn’t mean I don’t mind my little sister having s.e.x with her boyfriend continuously.”

Evie chuckled and said, “This strict big brother thing doesn’t suit you.”

“Ya whatever.” Walking towards the door, Ron added, “We are going shopping in the evening. If you both are done by then, you can join us.”

“Are you paying the bill?” Evie asked.

“Hey, you have a rich boyfriend now.” Ron retorted.

“Didn’t you say you are my big brother? So isn’t only right if you pay my bills.” Evie reasoned out.

“You are twenty-four Evie, pay your own bills.” Ron yelled.

Evie chuckled and said, “I am saving money.”

Without saying anything, Ron left.

…

Outside Watson Enterprise.

“What are you people doing here?” Matt asked.

“I wanted to meet dad and they accompanied me.” Bella said.

“Hmm why didn’t you tell me then? I would’ve dropped you all here.” Matt asked.

“It’s fine, I didn’t want to trouble you.”

“Matt where is Kevin?” Silvia asked.

“Rocky and Kev are together. They should be here by now.” Looking at his watch, Matt added, “Maybe they got stuck in traffic.”

“While we still have some time, I’ll go meet father.”

When Bella smiled and nodded her head, Matt left.

After he was out of sight, Bella anxiously squealed, “Ahhh he knows.”

Martha frowned and asked, “What do you mean?”

“I mean he knows that I was lying. He is definitely going to ask dad about it.” Bella explained.

“Uncle won’t say anything right?” Janet asked.

“I don’t think so he will but we have to be careful.” Bella suggested.

….

Inside Watson Enterprise.

Inside Father Watson’s office.

“Dad why were they here?” Matt asked.

“What do you mean by why are they here? Can’t a daughter come and meet her father?” Father Watson asked.

Matt sighed and said, “You know what I mean.”

Father Watson pretended to think for awhile and then vigorously shook his head. “I don’t know what you mean.”

“Bella would definitely tell me if she was missing you and if she really wanted to meet you.” Matt reasoned out. He knew something was not right or there was something going on which he had no idea about.

“You are just overthinking, it was just a normal father-daughter reunion thing.” Father Watson explained.

“Hmm okay but there is something else I want to talk to you about.”

“What is it?” Father Watson asked.

“Do you happen to know someone who is related to SPIRIT? Someone who can give us some more details?” Matt asked.

“Is that man you have detained not enough?” Father Watson asked.

Matt chuckled and helplessly shook his head. “You know everything.”

“Well, there is nothing you can hide from your father-in-law son.” Father Watson added.

“He did give us a few details but I feel like there is much more to it. Do you happen to know someone?” Matt asked.

Father Watson nodded his head and added, “Yes, but you have to wait for sometime. He doesn’t like visitors. It will take time for me to get a meeting for you.” He had already promised Bella and others for a meeting and now he would have to arrange one for his son-in-law as well.

“Hmm, okay. I’ll wait for your call then.” Matt said.

“I heard you took over SHADOW recently? What did you give Kevin Austin in return?” Father Watson asked.

Matt smiled and answered, “Nothing.”

Father Watson chuckled and helplessly shook his head. “Such a naive boy, I would have robbed millions from you for such a powerful organisation.”

Matt chuckled and let out a hearty laugh. “Perks of making clean and naive friends.”

…

Somewhere in UK

“Elias, Elias, Elias.” Gorus grinned and helplessly shook his head.

“What do you want me to do this time?” Elias asked.

Passing him a folder, Gorus gestured him to open it. “Read and tell me your thoughts are about it.”

Reading through the doc.u.ments, Elias’ expression turned dark. “He is just a six year old kid.”

Gorus chuckled and vigorously shook his head. “No Elias, he is a tool that we have been nurturing to use when we want to. And this the right time to sacrifice that tool.”

“How can you do that? No matter what, he is a small kid. How can you even think about doing something like that?” Elias shouted.

Walking towards him, Gorus blinked his eyes at a really high speed and chuckled. “Emotions, anger, love, anxiousness. From when did the ruthless Elias start developing emotions?”

Tightening his grip around the file, Elias pursed his lips.

“I had higher expectations from you Elias. You are our best agent after all but seems like these new emotions had successfully suppressed the real you.” Gorus mockingly said.

When Elias did not say anything for a really long time, Gorus added, “Either you do it or I’ll ask someone else.”

“I’ll do it.” Elias said before walking out.
