Dark Horses

Part 37 - Free.

Mew had a plan, a plan he wanted to fulfill anyhow. He was angry, hurt, pissed, and very much infuriated. He drove to his office alone, He didn't want to put anyone in danger, Alex had a family. 

Soon, He walked into his office and Kia stood up slowly, astonished. 

"I am so sorry Sir... I heard.." She walked behind him.

Mew didn't say anything back. He walked to his desk and was searching for something. Throwing papers everywhere, and files and opening cabinets in anger. 

"Can I help? " Kia asked softly picking up the files and papers.

Mew stood up with a fit, "I can't trust anyone right now. Please continue with your work. I'll find it. "

Kia stood there sorrowfully, "I am sorry sir, for everything... "

Mew stopped, closed his eyes, and sighed, "Would you cheat on me Kia?"

"Sir?" She stood there shocked.

"Would you cheat me? Hurt me for financial gain?" He had faced his back to her. 

He felt a soft touch on his shoulder, he turned to her, He widened his eyes as he looked at her, Kia was in tears. 

"How could you ask me that? I hurt you? for money ?" 

Mew stood there silently. 

"You took me in when no one else did. You gave me an education. You gave me a job. You made me what I am today. I was nothing. My own family wasn't there for me. I lost everyone and everything. You helped me to live. You're my only family. You gave me the love of my life. I would never do anything to hurt you.. " 

Kia cried as she stepped back. 

"I am sorry. " Mew stepped ahead and hugged her slowly, Kia widened her eyes, in six years, Mew had never hugged her.

"I am so confused. I am so angry. Someone is cheating on me, and I am losing everyone. everyone who is close to me and for the first time, I am scared. " 

Kia pulled away, "It's fine Sir. I know what you're feeling. I am with you."

"Stu? Love of your life?" Mew asked while he cracked a smile. 

Kia blushed and nodded. 

"Maybe I can make an exception. " Mew smiled slowly while he turned and resumed searching for something. 

Kia blushed but soon faded away when she remembered Stu, her suspension of Stu coming into the office early that day didn't fit her well, she didn't want to believe it but it was pricking in her mind. He never answered her when she asked, not even on the date night. 

"I think I know." The words left her mouth before she could think.

Mew turned and looked at her. 

"Stu came in here a few days before, early morning, before me and was searching for something. I asked him what but he said he had left it at home and nothing else. I think he was lying. " 

 I am sorry Stu, I love you but I can't betray Mew. He was there when no one else was. 

Mew's eyes grew red and he took his phone out. 

"General, Could you scan Stu's records? You would find Lhong whereabouts. "

"Stu? isn't he your bodyguard ?"

"Yes, it's just a hunch"

"a hunch? I am doing all of this for a hunch !? Listen Mr. Suppaist. We are working very hard to find out your culprit, You're not some president. Just for your deal. Get that ?"
