Oh my gosh, since when did he manage to control his
mouth to be quiet
I stood up and placed the back of my hand on his brow, trying to feel his temperature.
"Your body temperature is normal; what's the problem?"
" I asked seriously as I sat back in my chair.
"I'm fine, Nics, I just can't-arghhh I'm not sure," he said frustratedly, gripping his messy hair. What an amazing sight. He still looks good with messy hair, especially when combed with his fingers.
"Are you listening, Nics?"
" I heard him speak once more."
. I made a small motion with my head before responding, "Huh? What exactly are you saying? ”
"Nics, I need your help with this, and please don't spmy bodyguard out," he said as I apologized.
"I need you to find Callixta or find out where she is right now," he added.
"Didn't she leave? That is, she believes it is better not to be found, tsss." I retorted without thinking.
“It's been a while since she left, the last time I talked to her was on Blast's wedding day.” I scrunched my nose when I heard that day, gosh, I would choose to sleep in my room than to watch that nonsense event. If it is not for Blast, I will never attend such a dull and full of fake feelings in a wedding ceremony.
“She heard everything.” He toned down his voice, biting the side of his lips. I have also seen his hand closer into a fist.
“What the hell.” I murmured, biting the insides of my mouths.
This time, Blast ruined everything. We were aware of his plans, but it was more than that. The plan contains hidden plans. If you hear it but don't understand the entire plot, you'll get it wrong, as Callixta did. I'm sure she'd rather not talk to all of us right now. I can't blame her for feeling betrayed yet again. She had been through far too much in her life.
"A-and—" he continued, gripping his hair tightly while resting his elbows on the table.
"It's all right. She's all right. "I hope so." I take his arms in mine and gently caress them.
"Callixta told me she lost their baby," he whispered in the air, which stunned me.
"A-are you sure?" I stuttered, still trying to comprehend and process his words in my head.
"No, it wasn't true," I shook my head. He raised his head, looking at me, his dark orbs lingering in mine, speaking silent words I couldn't understand. Sadness and frustration are visible in him, but hope has also filled his entire system.
"Here's your order, Ma'am and Sir," the waitress said, holding the tray.
"Oh, thank you," Matthew said, standing in his seat and assisting the girl.
We eat and drink our coffee quietly. We either don't want to say anything, or we refuse to accept the truth about what happened to Callixta.
"I'll look for her." "I'll use my connections," I said, breaking the silence that had descended on our table.
"Hmmm, I'll try," he said, staring at his cup as if it were the most appealing part of the cafe.
Before paying at the counter, we finished our cups and my slice of cake.
Matthew and I decided to part ways so that we could begin the plan we devised.
I attempted to contact everyone who could possibly assist us.
"Even if she doesn't want to hear us or return to the mansion, at least we know she's okay," Matthew's voice repeated in my head.
"Yeah, but do I need to hear his voice in my pretty little head?" "This stinks," I said to myself as I undressed to change into a pair of pajamas and a shirt.
As I was about to jump into my precious and loving bed, I received a call from another person.
“Arghhh, not work again.” I complained, walking in my bedside table to get my phone.
“Yes? Danica Patterson speak—.”
“Nics, I discovered something.” Matthew quickly but my words.
“And it was you again. I'm starting to get vexater in your voice.” I grumbled.
“What is it?” I added, waiting impatiently.
"I'm beginning to doubt Maria's loyalty to our group," he said quietly. He could be in the mansion where he doesn't want to be heard, but I doubt it. The mansion has full audio cctv coverage.
"Where have you gone?
" I inquired.
"Mansion," he said quickly.
"They will hear you, Baka." Always keep those audio-video cctv cameras in mind." I warned him before we discussed something that would ruin our names.
"I made sure everything was secure before calling you." "I'm in the farthest and most secret room, and don't worry, I'm not going to drag you to something that will ruin or endanger the both of us," he added.
My heart beat a little faster. I nod, despite the fact that I know he can't see me. Baka, you.
"How can you call her skeptical?"
”
"I reviewed some CCTV footage and saw her leaving the mansion at one a.m., as if she believes it is better not to be caught by anyone."
"Perhaps she has a mission from the Don?
" I suggested putting my phone in my left ear and pressing my left shoulder up to hold my phone as I walked in my bed with a cup of ice cream in my hand.
"I asked the Don, but he says the game's rules haven't changed, so he won't let Maria go anywhere because of her trauma in the past."
"Hmmm, I get it now. Maybe she's going to meet someone outside."
"That's what I'm going to discover, but I need your assistance."
"What am I going to do?"
”
"Please investigate her background and everything else about her. I've had a bad feeling about her since day one, but no one can question the Don's decision, especially when it comes to the pack group."
"OK, I'll include that. "I'll let you know if I get anything," I said, still putting food in my mouth.
"Thank you, Nics."
"Don't be concerned."
"I'm going to hang up now." I'm desperate to learn more about her; I can't trust anyone these days except you and Blast. We can also include Callixta. Bye." He was about to end the call when I interrupted him by speaking.
"You sound tired, Stew; don't be too hard on yourself." For a while, sleep and rest. "Good night, bye," I said as I pressed the red button on the screen, and I'm kicking myself for saying those words.
My heart is pounding in my rib cage! I'm not sure why that man has such a strong influence on my entire system.
"Did I actually say those words aloud?"
" I pondered before burying my face in my pillows. I kicked my way out of the party as butterflies began to form in my stomach. I have the entire zoo in my stomach! They usually said it wasn't butterflies, but the entire zoo, and maybe an elephant kicked my skin, which is why I'm feeling so bad right now.
"You sound tired, Stew, don't abuse yourself," my thoughts replied. I placed my cup of ice cream on my bedside table and screamed again into my pillows. I hugged them all and punched them several times. Oh my goodness! I'm such a moron, telling those! Matthew will either think I'm a jerk or will cringe at the thought. I sighed and sat at the foot of my bed, staring at my phone. I got there and went through my gallery.
"How come I had feelings for you, Stew?" Why did I fall for you in a world filled with millions of men? " I inquired, opening my files containing photos of us together. We had the first one when we were teenagers. Blast was at our back, and Matthew had his arms around my shoulder. This time, I was so shy and innocent. When I swiped left, a new photo appeared."If we can't be together or you don't feel the same way I do, Stew, I accept it." I can't help but fall in love with you.
I know I shouldn't be feeling this way about a former friend, but I'm truly sorry. If I could only teach myself to love someone, I would, but I'm afraid I can't. I'm always here in the dark, loving your Stew." I hadn't noticed a single tear in my left eye. I wiped my tears and put my phone away before falling asleep with a heavy heart.
