The Billionaire's Wicked Scars | RBS 3

CHAPTER 16 - START

ZERO

I stare at the black folder that I'm holding. Its been two hours since the report was given to us. Saglit na binasa muli ang nakaraang reports ng agents na naka-assign sa kasong ito habang sumisimsim ng wine. The ORION prepared us a room to use and it's my old room in this org.

The report stated that all of Hillary Villaflor's relatives knew nothing about her whereabouts. Matagal nang lumayo sa mga kaanak si Hillary kaya walang nakuhang impormasyon.

Is this even true? 2 months nang nawawala ang babae, at may asawa't anak din siya na parehong nasa ibang bansa para sa isang business trip.

What made me doubtful of the report is that her brother is the one who reported it to the police officers. Though I thought none of her relatives knew anything about her, how come her brother? The officers failed to look for Hillary that's why the case was raised to the organization. And lately lang nalaman ng kanyang asawa at anak ang pagkawala ng babae.

I see so many loopholes on this report. Maybe it was assigned to the starting agents and they can't dig any more information about Hillary. But this case has probably clues for the murder case of Seven and the Jones's.

"What could be her whereabouts before this happened?"

My gaze went up to the woman sitting in front of me. The long lashes and fine brows made her eyes looked like she's sleepy though she's not. She bit her lips while reading the papers. I gulped.

"The file says nothing extremely dangerous. She just attended some party after party," I replied to her question.

Marahang napailing ako. I quickly put my gaze back to the folder as my brows furrowed. I've been noticing something weird in me whenever I look at the woman in front of me. Like a ticklish feather rubbing on my stomach. However, I know who I want.

I tightly closed my eyes and place the folder on the coffee table between me and Amara. My head started to ache. We better rest.

"We should call it a day and tomorrow we'll start the investion."

I stood from the seat and brought our wine glasses to the sink. She just shrugged her shoulders and didn't mind my words. It is obvious that she's physically tired from the plane travel yet here she is forcing herself to finish the document which I knew she already done reading.

If it wasn't for the fact that this case has something related to her parents'death, I knew she'd be less... stressed. Or this is just the way she handle missions? I don't really know and I can't tell.

Personally, hindi ko pa siya nakatrabaho. But I know the people in my organization. And the reason why I caged her to me... has something to do with my pride, lastly is my father's testament. Hindi din lingid sa kaalaman ko ang ginagawa niya sa ORION. I've been observing her movements for two years through the reports of my men and as her punishment, I'll just use her.

My voyage from the Black Island has been the reason why I found her body. And maybe it's fucking fate that we both needed to use each other for our own benefit.

"Mauna kana matulog. Mag-iisip lang ako ng plano tungkol dito," I heard her say.

I washed the glasses and put it back to the rack. Bumalik ako sa puwesto niya. Talagang ayaw mag paawat ng babaeng ito?

I forced to get the folder out of her hand and threw it on the couch.

"Ano ba? What's your problem?"

Ilang buwan na din na nasanay akong may katabi matulog sa kama. I don't think I can sleep without this woman. Fuck. What am I saying?

"Sleep. You still have time tomorrow," matigas kong sabi.
