Love Between You & Me

Chip and Pendant

"Officer Dave!! Where do you think you are going to?? Meeting is yet to finish. Come back to your seat", Kim orders, going back to the file he was studying earlier, taking a few sips from the glass, letting the cool liquid passed through his parched throat.

"Don't make me repeat myself. If you continued to act like an insolent brat, I would be left with no choice but to order 100 page apology letter", Chief announces when the later doesn't budge from his place.

Hearing him, Phoenix who has his hand on the knob ready to bolt out of the room, huffs, biting inside of his cheeks from barking back something indecent...family or not....Kim is still his senior and he is in no mood to write down a 100 pages explanation statement again just because he lost his cool. Taking a deep breath, he strides back to his chair he had abandoned earlier realising how his whole team got played in hands of a single person easily.

"So, I assume none of you were familiar with Swayer's identity. No wonder, Chief was all keen to blow my head", Knott quips, eyes wandering from one officer to another.

"Yes, right. We had thought that it's club's manager Blaze, completely overlooking the waiter who came out of nowhere in the screen.", Bright explains typing through his laptop furiously, looking for something.

"Do you by any chance have ever met this guy?", Kongpob eyes Ryan who is sitting across him. Making him target of other's attention. Arthit rightens in his seat perking up at the query," Yes, Kongpob is right. Didn't you said that you were undercover there?? You never told us whom you were detailing on??"

"Coorrrectt!! Who was it?? Chakiri Anuwat???", Bright asks in a conspirational voice dramatically, making others shakes their heads.

" Chakiri Anuwat as in the one who financed Canvosagaemin's research??? But he had met an accident years ago. Then who??", Damon offers, head tilted to the side, eyes suspicious.

"Whoa!!! Does it mean you knew about Cavosagemin???", Prem is bewildered that they had missed to connect the dots soon.

All this while when everyone was busy throwing questions after question, Ryan just keep jolting down on in his note pad, totally eluding all his colleagues especially the one sitting opposite of him who has yet to take his eyes off him. He can already hear the ringing bells inside the head of younger one.

Seeing that their commanding officer is not looking eager to answer their queries anytime soon, all of them turned their heads in a sync towards their Chief who was busy discussing something with Knott. Phoenix scoffed when the elder didn't entertained them even after Bright clearing his throat pointedly again and again that he is afraid for hacker's throat's well being.

"Looks like it is not something new revelation for Chief!! Isn't it Sir??", the surgeon forced the honourific out of his mouth. Not liking how the senior is keeping secrets with them.

"Don't provoke me Phoenix. I have every right to withhold any information from you if I see the need. So, try to not be a smart ass for once", Kim who seemed engrossed in whatever Knott was showing him in papers addressed him without looking away.

Arthit who had enough of this suspense, bangs his hands over the conference table," Chief!!! Are you seriously going to be like that????", he glances to ST's commanding officer, pining the other with a look which is screaming liar," Who are you??? Whom you were detailing??? If you are imposter of Chakiri Anuwat's son then where is real Ryan Anuwat???? Can we trust you??? Or you have some ulterior purpose???". No one missed how ST commanding officer faltered at the last question. Or the discreet shift of his eyes towards Kongpob. Instantly making the pale man stiff as the awareness hit him.

"So you do have some secondary purpose. What is it??? Could it be...that chip??", ST commanding head stills for the very first time and looks to Arthit who has thrown him the most difficult question.
