When Ian finally woke up the next morning, Liam was already gone, he knew he must have left early as the expeditions always left at 6.30am, and when he looked at the time he saw that he had to hurry if he didn't want to be late for his class.
Liam had promised to come back tonight to see how he was doing and it was time for him to make a decision, and give him a clear answer, he had kept him waiting long enough.
.....
In another pavilion, Axel and Kevin woke up early too, Kevin had taken the remedy Ashton gave him yesterday and he was feeling much better this morning.
When they had breakfast with Alan and Erik, they offered to them to accompany them to Down city, but Alan seeing that they seemed to be doing better told them that they would go to see Erik's grandmother today instead, they rarely had day off so they would take this opportunity to check how she was doing.
He told them that they would come back this afternoon to see how they were doing and if everything was alright they would go back to their pavilion tonight.
So when they left, each couple went their separate ways.
After two hour of travel Axel and Kevin landed in Down city and they went straight to Tony's shop.
It was Ellis who was there and when he saw them arrive he told them to be patient and that he would go get Tony right away for them.
When Tony arrived he greeted them warmly as usual and asked them the same question : "So guys, are you here to buy or to sell ?"
It was Kevin who replied, Axel knew that whatever was going to happen, he had to keep a straight face, and avoid showing his emotions : "Neither one nor the other, I'm coming to use the offer you made to me, I need your network."
He glanced at Ellis and when he looked at Tony again he said with a knowing smile on his face : "Can we talk here or do we have to go to a quieter place ?"
Tony and Ellis' faces changed dramatically, Ellis spoke first looking at Tony : "The shop is empty."
Tony then said to him : "Take the opportunity to close it then, I don't want us to be disturbed."
Ellis walked over to the door and turned the sign that hung above the door indicating that the shop was now closed.
He locked the door and came back to Tony saying : "It's done, what do you want to do now ?"
Tony looked at Kevin and said : "It will depend on what Kevin needs."
Kevin smirked, he knew that Tony couldn't be involved in such a network without a bodyguard, he looked at Ellis and asked him in a disapprovingly tone : "Where were you when Tony needed you last time, he could have been hurt."
Ellis frowned and clenched his fists, but he said nothing, he knew he was at fault, it was Tony who answered Kevin's question instead of him : "It was I who told him to go and rest, he had been on call at night, he needed to rest and Axel was there anyway, I really didn't think that something would happen in such a short time."
Ellis shook his head and said : "It's Kevin who's right, I should have waited for the one who was supposed to replace me."
Ellis looked curiously at Kevin, that smirk on his face and the aura that radiated from him made him think of his uncle, he asked him : "Who the fuck are you ?"
Tony wasn't too happy with Ellis's behavior but Kevin raised his hand to tell him it was okay and he simply replied : "I think you already know that, right ?"
He then looked at him carefully and use his perception skill on him.
