"Tall," Erika softly muttered under her breath when her eyes fell on the tall fence that surrounded the house. It was so tall that no one could even see what was happening outside of the fence even if they climbed a ladder.
In front of the fence, tall n wearing bulky clothes were standing on guard with guns in their hands, scouting the areas for any intruders. The sky was lighter and darker as the evening approached them.
"So this is the garden, do you like it?" Adrian asked her, bringing her out of her thoughts and her eyes landed on the beautiful flowers that were planted beautifully on the soil.
"Yes," she mumbled, her words curt and firm. She darted her eyes around the place for any security caras and noticed a lot of them fixed on the fence and so fixed on the body of the mansion.
’It seems like I would need to make a foolproof plan for my escape’, Erika thought to herself.
She noticed Adrian leave her side to walk to a rose flower before picking it and stretching his hands towards her, "For you," he said.
Erika reluctantly took the flowers from his hand and the thorn pricked her thumb but didn’t notice it as her mind was still pondering on how she could escape from there.
"When did you have the money to do all of these?" she asked him and noticed Adrian suddenly tensed up.
Adrain released a sigh before he spoke,
"It’s late now, I think it’s ti for you to sleep."
He grabbed her hand intending to pull her along with him so that she could head back to her bedroom but she suddenly winced in pain.
Adrian quickly halted his steps and faced her to ask, "What happened?"
"I think the thorn from the flower pricked my thumb," she replied.
"Wait here, let get the first aid kit," said Adrian intending to rush to only God knows where but Erika imdiately stopped him.
"It’s okay, it’s nothing serious," she said as she blew air on her thumb.
"Are you sure?" he asked her and she nodded. "Alright then, let’s go to your room," he said and led them to the room.
After reaching the room, Adrian leaned in to peck her cheeks but Erika grimaced and turned her head away from him. Adrian smirked at her reaction and wished her, "good night" before he turned on his heels and left the room.
Still finding it hard to believe all that she had seen outside just a mont ago, Erika tried to find so possibilities for Adrian’s sudden rich personality but nothing ca to her mind.
Frustrated, she grabbed her hair tugged on it, and mumbled under her breath, "Ethan."
The next day, a black car parked in front of the club and the two n inside who wore black glasses monitored the people that ca in and ca out of the club.
It was still 4 pm so the club wasn’t fully opened yet and it was just the staff who walked around, trying to get the place ready for the evening’s party.
"He isn’t here yet. Maybe he’s waiting for the club to be opened first before he can co," Daniel mumbled to Felix.
"Ethan said his n reported to him that they would always co here and it didn’t matter if the club had already opened or not," said Felix, and Daniel nodded in understanding.
Michael could have followed them but he was in charge of Ethan’s treatnt.
After waiting patiently for another hour, they noticed another car pull up beside them. Since it was heavily tinted, they couldn’t see the person or people inside.
The car doors opened and a man wearing a red suit and red shoes stepped down. His wrist had the tattoos of a viper snake and judging from how he entered the club with the staff stopping him, the brothers already thought he was a regular custor.
Since their car was on the left side of the car the man had just co down from, they couldn’t spot Adrian coming down from the passenger’s seat. They only saw him when he was about to enter the club.
"There he is."
Quickly, they both got out of the car and headed inside but were quickly stopped by the staff.
"I’m sorry sirs but the club isn’t open yet so I will have to ask you to leave and co back when it’s opened," said a staff mber.
"But you let those two n in," said Daniel.
"Those are regular VIP custors so they have the right to enter the club," said the staff.
The two brothers glanced at each other before releasing a sigh. Since they couldn’t enter the club, they had to wait for an extra hour for that to happen.
Turning back with disappointed faces, they entered the car and simply waited so more.
Inside the club, Viper and Adrian directly went to the underground gambling as as usual, so people had already started to occupy the spaces and had started to gamble their life away.
When the both of them passed the people who had started to gamble, imdiately, envious eyes were laid on Adrian. This wasn’t the first ti that they glared at him like this. It had always occurred since after the ti Viper decided to make him his right-hand man.
He had not started long but suddenly, he gained rank and power so he no longer played gambling with them. After he argued with Mr Salvador, no one dared to play with him, they were simply afraid to lose their money and Mr Salvador couldn’t show his face in the club anymore. After losing 6 million in the ga, he couldn’t return to lose even more money and so was others.
Also, after Adrian beca Viper’s right-hand man, he didn’t play gas with them anymore. Not because he couldn’t but because of his other ans of source of inco.
