One last time - Chapter 327

“But—”

Cutting Silvia off, Janet snapped, “Don’t worry about the security because I already told Rocky that we are going shopping today so he arranged a group of men who will follow us around.”

Thinking for quite some time, Silvia decided to give in. After whatever had happened, she had stopped acting recklessly and prefered staying at home. She would occasionally go out to meet their parents along with Kevin.

“But I’ll have to at least tell Kev about it before we leave.” Grabbing her phone, Silvia stepped out to give him a call.

….

Glory Enterprise.

“We need to do something as soon as possible Kev, the competition is just a couple of months away and we need to find a way out of this.”

Massaging his forehead, Kevin sighed. Each day was like a ticking bomb for him and no matter how hard they try, all they could find out of SPIRIT was external information which wasn’t enough to take them down.

“My men are still interrogating Morris and he told them yesterday that no matter how hard we try, they will take Silvia with them when the come comes and she has to take part in the competition.” Matt explained.

“Where will the competition take place?” Chris asked.

“In Malgiores.”

“I have never heard of it,” Kevin frowned.

Matt nodded his head and said, “Even I had no idea about this place but I did a little research and found out that this place is known as the land of death. All the competitions of SPIRIT are conducted there.”

“That competition sounds dangerous so it shouldn’t be allowed right?” Chris asked.

Matt nodded his head and explained, “This is why they choose Malgiores because that city doesn’t follow any rules or abides by the law. It is ruled by the powerful people which are loyal to the various organizations and SPIRIT is one of them.”

“How far is it from here?” Kevin asked.

“12 hours in the air and 8 on the road.”

Pausing for a while, Matt added, “And it’s not just Silvia, even Janet is at equal risk. We cannot just focus on Silvia and neglect Janet because she is a part of the competition too.”

“So you mean they will take away Jan too?” When Matt nodded his head, Rocky sighed and massaged his forehead. He was very concerned and worried about Janet as well. Though he knew that she would never do anything against Silvia or the situation, he didn’t trust her father Andrew Aaron Brown.

“This entire situation is more dangerous than we thought. I heard that their main base is somewhere in the countryside so I have sent some of my men to find out where exactly it is but until then, we need to be very careful.” Matt had been trying his best to find each and every information about SPIRIT. He wanted to know everything about them before they could move forward with their plan but he was also worried about the little time they had in their hand.

Just then Kevin’s phone rang.

“Of course you can go honey but make sure that you stay close to the men and others okay? Do you want me to pick you up at the mall?” He asked.

“Okay, I’ll give you a call after we are done.” She said.

“Alright, have fun and I love you.” After hanging up the call, he turned towards Matt and asked, “The team is ready right?”

“Don’t worry, I have already asked them to follow the ladies when Bella told me that they are going out.”

….

5th street.

Jawana Mansion.

Looking around, Silvia frowned and asked, “Is this the right place?”

“Hmm dad gave me this address so I guess it’s right.”

“I think we should go inside,” Grabbing Silvia’s hand, Janet started walking towards the mansion along with others while their guards slowly followed them behind.

Looking around the big mansion, Silvia frowned again. “Why do I feel I have been here before?”

“Because you have.” Walking towards them, the old man added, “But you were very small back then so I guess you don’t remember anything.”

“I have been here before? With whom?”

“With your mother,” cupping Silvia’s face, he smiled, “You really look like your mother except for your eyes but the innocence in your eyes portrays that you don’t belong here.” Turning towards Janet who was standing right beside Silvia, he raised his brows. “A Brown and a Jones together again? Is history repeating itself?”

Tightening her grip around Janet’s hand, Silvia frowned, “No it’s not and I am not a Jones, I am a Green.”

“Well, that is true and this is why I agreed to meet you all.” Turning towards Bella, he chuckled, “And you must be Watson’s daughter.”

Bella smiled and nodded her head, “Thank you so much for meeting us Mr Henry.”

“Ahh it’s alright, so shall we sit down and talk?” Without waiting for their response, he guided them towards the couch.

After settling down on the couch, Henry chuckled, “There is no way you can escape this.” When Silvia frowned, he added, “SPIRIT is your fate and you cannot deny it no matter what. The same goes with your friend, she cannot escape it too.”

“What if I deny to be a part of it?” Janet asked.

“Do you think that your aunt wanted to be a part of it? Do you think that if there was a way out, she would even think of fighting against her best friend?” Pausing for a while, he continued, “Several years ago, Matilda came looking for me like you all and asked me the same question like you did but my answer was the same.”

Taking a sip of tea, Henry added, “As I told you all before that history is going to repeat itself but there is a tiny difference which is almost negligible but it can make a very huge impact on the whole situation.”

“What is it?” Silvia asked.
