Second Lead Syndrome: A Second Chance - Chapter 310

Ace only visited Becca again to have dinner with her. Other than that, he was out again, pretending to be busy.

He knew that Becca was up to something. He just didn’t know what yet, but he had to prepare for everything little scheme she had up her dirty sleeves.

As expected, Becca pretended to sleep for a good two hours before waking up. She grabbed the phone that Ace had given her before. She cracked open the phone and inspect it, to make sure there were no bugs in it.

When it was safe, she dialed a number.

What Becca did not know was that the phone doesn’t need a real physical bug in it. As long as the Bluetooth was enabled and the phone was cloned properly, Ace can trace any outgoing or incoming calls and messages from the phone.

Ace was looking through the camera footage in Becca’s room. He was in a different area of the building. After all, every single place here is full of cameras. Dr. Who needed his illegal hospital business to be secured.

“Trace the call.” Ace demanded from a person whose fingers starting hammering the keyboard.

“Hello, this is Azure’s gift delivery service. My name is Allu, how may I help you?” A lady’s voice picked up the call.

“I am calling to check on a delivery package that I have not received yet.” Bella answered.

“I see. Do you have the package tracking code?”

“Yes. It was a specialty delivery package. Tracking code MC1466DP.”

Over the phone, there were noises of the lady looking up the tracking code. “I see. You are our VIP customer. Please hold while I transfer you.”

*Beep Beep Beep*

After a few seconds, the call got connected again.

“Hello?” A man’s deep voice was heard.

“It’s me.” Bella spoke.

“So I see you are still alive… and annoying as ever. You better have a good reason to be calling me at this time of the night.”

“Oh please… you’re probably just getting laid like every other night.”

“What do you want, b*tch?!”

“I am here to collect the favor you owe me.”

“Hah…. are you finally turning around and betraying that mother of yours?”

“Remember, you’re only alive now because I let you live. I found you years ago and let you go… don’t think I don’t know where you are right now.”

“You have betrayed that Madam Li since the beginning. She wasted good food and effort to grow you up. Look at you now, you’re hungry monster. Just tell me what you want.” The man’s voice was getting impatient.

“I need you to get rid of Lena Shen for me.”

“That slut again?!”

“Again? Isn’t it because you failed the last time that we’re all in this situation? You can’t even kill that nerdy boy too. This time… I want her dead. No mistakes.”

“I swear I killed her. And that stupid boy too. I don’t know how both of them are still alive. If it wasn’t for that stupid Eva girl crying… I would have put more bullets into both of them. And I barely got out of the building when the Kris Li and his team infiltrated the place.”

“Are you backing out?” Bella questioned him.

“Backing out…? Why… because that Miss is now with your boyfriend? Please, b*tch… I caused his mother to crash and killed his father… I would not hesitate to kill anything related to the Li family, including you. But I am a man of my words… this one last favor, and we’re done.”

“Good. I’ll come to see you in a week’s time. I will have everything set up by then.. you just need to go with the plan.” Bella confirmed.

“Yeah, whatever.”

Bella hung up the call and then put the phone into the glass of water on the side of her bed. She smiled and laid back on the bed.

“You’re dead this time… Lena. I’ll make sure of it.”

Bella closed her eyes and went to sleep.

Ace looked at the dark room and then turned to the man on the computer.

“Did you trace it?” He asked.

“Both.” The man answered. “I got the first ping from the fake delivery place and also where the second call was transferred to. They used a good system but their backdoor was weak.”

“Good.” Ace walked over to the computer screen and looked at it. He scoffed. “So he… is still hiding in the Bai’s territory. I guess Kris is also killing two birds with one stone again.”

“Kris… so you are getting back with him?” Dr. Who, who was standing by the door spoke.

“I am not getting back with him… I am just paying him back what I owe him.” Ace turned around. “When are you getting back with Tye?”

“YOU! You don’t speak of that man in my house. His name is taboo.”

“Yes… but I see you’re still drooling over him, Aiden.”

“It seems you don’t want that item that you asked me for.” Dr. Who changed the topic.

“Oh, you have it already?”

“Of course. I am a very efficient man.” He handed a vial to Ace.

Ace took it and looked at the clear liquid. He smiled. “Have you met my sister-in-law?” Ace asked.

“That woman… what was her name?”

“Lena.”

“Yes.. her. Thank god for that lady. If she didn’t come to steal that Li boy away from my handsome Tye–”

“Ah… so are still drooling over him.”

“Shut up!”

The computer boy just looked at his boss and Ace’s conversation. Who’s Tye…? Is that the man who’s pictures are plastered all over his boss’s room?

His boss is crazy. Some days he would make out with the pictures and other days he would burn them just to print them again. Just how crazy are these people…

He sighed and took out the secured thumb drive he saved the information and conversation from just before.

“Mr. Ace, here.” He handed it to Ace.

“Thanks.” Ace put the vial in his pocket and grabbed the thumb drive. “And by the way, Doctor… my sister-in-law has amazing powers to make people obey her… if you get on her good side, she might just be able to hook you up with the other doctor.”

Ace spoke and then started walking away.

“I told you, I don’t care about him!” Dr. Who shouted. Then after a short paused, he quickly chased after Ace. “Well, I mean… does she really? Will I get my head chopped off if I see her?”

“We’ll both get our head to chopped off if we see her.”

“Then why did you even suggest that!”

Ace smiled and continued walking.

“You know something… you’re planning something…” Dr. Who pointed a finger at Ace.
