An ILLUSIVE Haven

48.

Lucy checked all the surveillance around Oliver's villa. For a while she didn't find anything. She felt bored and ordered light to run it again.

As she was watching the video her phone buzzed. Picking it up she ran a sequence on the computer to check for any blind spots.

"Lucy, I just got information that Mr.Roland sold his shares to someone other than the person we sent"

Lucy frowned upon hearing it. Thomas who was on the other side continued,
"After the person I sent informed me about this I also got a call from a lawyer named Mr. Peterson about a share transfer of Mr. Roland's shares to your name."

"I was so surprised and asked him on who transferred those shares to you. He said that you and him are acquainted. When I asked for his name he only said that person's name is Victor Scott other than that he didn't say anything."

"Do you know anything about this?"

Lucy froze upon hearing this. Her finger around the phone gripped tightly. Remembering last night her face blushed  deeply.

"Hmm."
"Leave about this matter. Go through the procedure of transfer. I'll call you later."

Lucy cut the call and laughed to herself. She remembered that Vic overheard her speaking with Thomas yesterday. She didn't think much at that time. She never thought he would help her like this.
She picked up her phone and called him immediately.

Vic who  just came out after washing up saw his phone ring. Seeing the name Lucy flash by he quickly picked it up and said,

"Hey, good morning cutie"

Upon hearing his voice through the phone Lucy felt her heart beat so violently. With a blushing face she replied sweetly,
"Good morning."

Vic chuckled lightly upon hearing her voice. He could imagine her blushing face through the phone.

"What's happening? Did you have breakfast?" He spoke while sitting on the bed.

Lucy hummed lightly and asked,
"What about you?"

"Going to eat in a while. Waiting for Sandy to call me." Vic said.

Looking through the window he said,
"When are you gonna come today ?"
Lowering his voice he spoke,
"I miss you"

Lucy felt her face so hot and sweet in her heart rubbing her hot face she said,
"Don't know, it may take some time. I am dealing with the surveillance related to Oliver's death right now."

Vic frowned lightly upon hearing it.
"Yeah I heard about it too this morning. If  you need help regarding it just ask me. Don't worry I also got licence connected to police department soI can help you legally."

Lucy smiled upon hearing it and hummed.

Vic remembered the  call he got this morning and he asked while smiling,
"Did you like the gift ?"

Lucy guessed what's he was asking about, chuckling lightly she said,
"Thank you. It's really a surprise gift."
"So, tell me Mr. Myth what kind of gift you want from me?"

Vic smiled upon hearing her voice. Thinking of their first meeting his eyes brightened and said slyly,
"Do you remember our first meeting?"
"Someone gave me something which is quite delicious. Why don't you give me that again when you come here today?"

"Hmm, yeah I remember meeting you in the corridor that night and then I.." Lucy froze upon saying and buried her face deeply and spoke lightly with deeply flushed face,
"You...you... Hooligan."
Vic laughed so much upon hearing that. With a hearty smile upon his face he asked,
"What you don't want to. Hmm I miss it so much that I remember it every night?"
Lucy felt so ashamed upon hearing it. Her heart is beating so fast she spoke slowly,
"You... Of course.. it's not impossible."
"I'm gonna go now I got work to do byebye" saying that she quickly cut off the call.
Vic on the other side felt his heart speed up on hearing her last words and laughed so hard looking at the phone screen.
"Then I will gladly wait for the gift." He murmured to himself while humming a tune.
...
Colby who wanted to call Lucy to go to Oliver's villa saw Lucy smiling shyly with a deep blush.

He froze upon seeing that rubbing his eyes twice he spoke dumbly,
"Lucy, what are you watching that made you so shy? You don't do anything illegal ok"

Lucy froze upon hearing that she threw the mouse at him and said,
"What are you thinking? I'm checking over the surveillance footage." Yet she was scolding Vic for making her like this.

Colby spoke lightly while walking in,
"Oh I thought you are watching something suspicious that made your face so red" and gave a look I believe in your shit.

Lucy glared at him and said,
"Take your mind out of the gutter. Did you take care of everything."

Colby sat on the chair next to her and said,
"Yeah as long as your ready we can go"
Lucy hummed and said,
"The footage is clean that I always feel something odd."

"Let me take a look again. Light is processing image right now..." Just as she spoke light filtered every image in the set time period.

Lucy ran through it and froze suddenly on a glass reflection she zoomed in and spoke excitedly,
"Yay I found something. Colby look here Isn't this a human image."
"Hmm.. it's blurry. Light enhance the image to optimum."

Colby came near the screen as soon as Lucy spoke.
"Yes master" light replied and started enhancing.

Lucy said,
"I feel like that person was avoiding the cameras. I  didn't see any person during thie time period in or out after this. This so weird."

"Enhancing done master" light said in a cute voice.

"Good job light" Lucy replied and seeing the enhanced look she spoke,
"Isn't this guy Oliver's personal assistant. I saw him in Oliver's personal catalogue."

"Why is this so weird I didn't see him enter the villa during the day or at night in the yesterday's video. I saw him exiting the  villa on the day before yesterday."

Lucy eyes glinted as she stumbled upon on something. Picking up her phone she rushed Colby.

"Light save everything and shut down the computer."

"Let's go let's go I feel like I got into something. We need to go to villa ASAP."
Colby who was being dragged also thought of a possibility and walked quickly to the parking lot.
