Then, how could he explain to the one who appeared this time that he was her boyfriend and fiancé? Every day, they were encountering more complicated circ.u.mstances.

Ma.s.sages his forehead, Quinn is trying to figure out for a better plan to keep a secret and make up a story, again. Grateful, Levi is such a talker, and he is the one likely questioning the Ca.s.sandra who appeared this time about the memories she remembered then review the book.

When this going to an end and the real one comes back on her own? He was still hesitant to allow Madison to travel time once again until he ensured that she was completely well. Quinn is just quietly listening to Levi and Ca.s.sandra's conversation when Meisha knocks on the door then he steps inside the room.

He gave the folder to Quinn, and his brother-in-law's expression darkened upon reading the reports. Quinn's head throbbing a lot more than before. There is a serious complication with the mission he gave to Matt and Deana. Something is not right. Could there be a traitor among his King's Men? Or the closest to the Alliance he trusted?

The Russian and the Southern American Alliance uprising. Then now, there must be someone behind all these schemes against him, and they even dare to step within his territory without fearing what he would do once he will capture them.

Quinn's gaze darkens did not notice that Ca.s.sandra is glancing at him. Her expression discomforted, and so, Levi coughs to get Quinn's attention and their eyes talked. Levi is warning him to be careful of his expression in front of the present Ca.s.sandra they are with now.

He nodded at Levi then fixes his gaze to Ca.s.sandra who is showing a bit fright toward him. He smiled to ease her fear and be comfortable with him.

"Ahem. Like I said, Ca.s.sie, brother Quinn who saves you and brought you in my mansion."

Levi tried to lighten up the atmosphere as he needed to keep talking and be careful about anything his mouth spill out. Since Ca.s.sandra, this time has the original memory from the book character when her parents died then to the present as she was thirteen years old, he must not mention Ca.s.sandra's family is alive, and they were here in the mansion.

"But can I go home to Uncle Martin's house?" she asked.

"Um, I am afraid that no one is around at your house. I sent people to notify them about you and fetch you, but we don't know how to reach them. However, you have nothing to worry about, Ca.s.sie. You can stay in the mansion whenever you like. Besides, you are safer here until we will capture the culprit," Levi explained.

They make up a story that Ca.s.sie lost consciousness when someone broke into the house. Thanks to Quinn, who runs around the neighborhood. He heard when she screams, and to make a story short, Quinn beat the bad guys and here she is. Ca.s.sie seems believing it even if she looks confused and uncertain.

The first Ca.s.sandra that switches to the real one is a very innocent girl. Now, she is tame and showing discomforted.

"Okay. But can you tell me if you found Uncle Martin and Aunt Lydia, also Mimie?"

"Yes, we will. Don't worry Ca.s.sie," Levi a.s.sured, smiling. He is doing well with his act.

While Levi and Ca.s.sie continue talking, Quinn is reading the reports on his hand, keeping his cool. Finished reading the reports, Quinn looked at Meisha.

"I better go back to Mainland City to take care of it. Blaire and I already talk about this. We should go back already." He said.

"All right. It seems the best idea. Call for a meeting, and I need their reports afterward," he ordered.

"Understood. I will gather our ears to send their reports."

"We have to find who is betraying me, and the Alliance."

Meisha nodded. "I already contacted my ears, the Russian is stepping back. They were restraining down."

"That's good. However, another group of rebellion is rising, and there will be after one another if we can't end this sooner."

"Rest a.s.sured, Quinn. I will watch over the movement of the Alliance. Kier, and Rudolf doing their best to run the corporation in your absence. Daichi also watching the activities of the Underground World. Something is going on in the Black Market, related to Matt's mission. But Spencer is using his connection to help," Meisha added to his report.

Quinn's brow pushes upward, then chuckles. "Seriously?"

"Yeah. I won't get surprised."

Quinn laughs then shook his head. He need not guess either. So then, Spencer truly followed her? He's still too overprotected toward her. Quinn's thought. He then noticed that Ca.s.sandra was looking at him. Her face looks mesmerized and curiosity was written on her face. When their eyes meet, she blushed.

Hmm... how cute she looks. He's missing Ca.s.sandra even more. Yet, he cannot kiss her again.

"All right. Report to me anytime if there are more problems occurs," Quinn told Meisha.

"Understood."

"Anyway, does Jean's case going fine?" Quinn remembered the shot out at the pad building Kier living in.

"I heard, there is a little problem since there is no solid evidence they could present aside from Jean's statement. The other women that also hired and worked illegally like her, it hid somewhere them within the Palm Island. Once Matt and Deana succeed, the case going smoothly after then."

"Surely. And this incident, the Palm Island illegal activities, Southern American rebellion, the attack at the Shaman territory, it is not just any coincidence."

"I am affirmative on this one. We must capture someone who would talk about the schemes they plotted on you. The leads Lady Cheska follows, she discovered about the plotting to attack the Shamans Village in Brazil. However, Lady Isabella already arrived in the area, and that made her involve and trapped with the war."

"And we cannot perceive if it aims to Lady Isabella, or they do not know that the lady is paying a visit?"

"Yes, Quinn. Jessie will investigate this matter. Once those rebels captured, we have to make them talk about everything they knew and who is the real leader behind this all."

"Then make sure they will give all the information we need. Once Rudolf identifies each of those rebels, get all their information."

"Copy."

Quinn would use every card he has at hand. When he would say, he wants the information of these rebels; it means he will use their family to threaten them. The truth of the world he is living in.

And Landon knew of nature and danger being in the Alliance, especially Quinn. His daughter's life was in danger, something he does not approve that her daughter falls in love with someone who works in the Mafia a.s.sociation. Not to mention, the next Head of them all. But happens, that his daughter falls in love with Quinn. What he could do now is to support and help Quinn and let his daughter be happy.

But where is she now? Landon sighed. He was looking outside the window and contemplating the things he must do soon to help Quinn. If Ca.s.sandra hasn't disappeared, he won't realize these things, and he won't make this decision to entrust his daughter to Quinn completely.

"Honey, come back soon. Papa is not against this marriage anymore. Please, we missed you."
