Chapter 94: CHAPTER 94: A SPY (2)
" So. . ., are you two in a relationship now?" Maya asked suddenly.
" Huh? I guess so." Clara tilted her head with a frown. ' we had confessed to each other and had even kissed so that means we're now couples right?.'she thought inside.
" tsk tsk tsk, you're hopelessly Clara, totally hopeless. . ." Maya chuckled and shook her head.
" W..wait. . ., Maya?!" Clara stared at her phone with disbelief as the call was suddenly cut off. " Urgh." she rolled her eyes and pouted.' This Maya.'
She sat up again and her thoughts wandered to Carl then she placed a finger on her lower lip and giggled again.
She sighed contentedly and decided to stay for a while, before leaving for home.
********
Carl's eyes darted around the smoky area with a cold expression. The place had suddenly become quiet and some workers were packing the damaged appliances away while others were crying in pain from their injuries while being hauled into the many ambulances that were lined up in a row.
He glanced at the gunshot marks on the huge tractors which were set ready for work and his fists clenched.
" Who did this?" He muttered coldly while looking ahead.
" B..Boss, w..we couldn't recognize them. Th..they were wearing masks and also large in number." The man sighed while holding his arm which was stained with blood from the gunshot wound. He was also surprised as the masked men suddenly attacked them while the construction was going on. And the most surprising thing was that they quickly left after damaging everything.
" Increase the security," Carl commanded and turned then left the place. and the man stared at his back and sighed, afraid that another battle was slowly brimming up.
Carl sat inside his car and tapped the small blue tooth in his ear. " Track them." He ordered curtly while looking ahead at the many ambulances that were dashing out of the site.
" S..Sir, the construction manager w..want to m..meet you." David rushed to his side and uttered while wiping off the sweat that was trickling down his head.
" Mm." He replied curtly and took out his phone and contemplated whether to call Zach or not and sighed, deciding not to as he may still be dealing with Maya's case.
A while after, David came back with a young man who was probably in his early thirties or late twenties.
He watched as they spoke a foreign language while watching the man's expression which changed from nervousness to relief. After some time, the man left and Carl turned to him.
" The construction will continue," he said and then drove off.
He heaved deeply and took out his phone with one hand while the other one was on the staring wheel.
" Are you home, ?" He asked while a small smile appeared on his face.
" Yeah," Clara replied from the other end with a chuckle. " Did something happen at the construction site?"
" Mm, will pick you up tomorrow," He replied and cut off the call after they had said goodbye.
He sighed after dropping the phone, and changed direction, heading toward the outskirts of the city.
__ One Hour Later __
Carl strode through the long corridor with a burly man scurrying behind. Several men and women dressed in black outfits stopped and bowed as they passed by as they wondered why he had suddenly come.
His eyes darted around the hallway coldly as he surveyed the many men with a fleeting gaze which halted for some seconds on a lady standing nearby who quickly glanced down, avoiding his gaze. He smirked before he entered the room on his right.
" Big B..Boss, the attack__" The man was suddenly cut off as he wiped his sweat in the ice-cold room.
" That lady, " Carl said, as his hand caressed the guns that were splayed on the huge table together with many other weapons.
" Y..You m..mean the c..cleaner?" The man stared at his back fearfully while wondering what the ambush had to do with the cleaner as he had also noticed his boss's gaze paused on her a while ago.
" Take her to the interrogation room," He ordered calmly and picked a knife which he tossed and landed straight into the red spot on the target.
The man gulped as he had noticed a glint in the expressionless man's face. " Y..yes B..Big boss." He nodded quickly and scrambled out of the room.
Carl continued playing with the knives while wondering what was wrong with his stupid brother as he couldn't notice this slight mistake. Even though he had only seen her a few times, he instantly recognized her despite the facade. He sighed and threw the final knife on its target.
He had intended to come to check out the weapons but was grateful that he had also found this small evidence.
After a while, he chuckled and a cold glint flashed through his eyes as he picked up a revolver and shoved it inside his pocket then strode out of the room.
Some minutes later, he arrived at the interrogation room after passing through many corridors.
" Big Boss, " A man quickly bowed his head and opened the door.
Carl entered the room with measured footsteps and his shoes clanking against the bloodstained floor, which was the only sound that could be heard apart from the muffling voice of the woman bound ahead on a chair.
He sat down elegantly on a chair that the burly man from before had quickly placed behind him. He placed one leg stop the other with his eyes fixed intently on her as she tried to struggle without any success from the tight grip of the handcuff which was binding her hands. " Remove it, " he ordered while twirling the pistol flexibly in his fingers.
" Y..yes." The man nodded and instantly remove the tape covering her mouth.
She shifted in the chair and looked down from the man's interrogating gaze. She never expected him to be suddenly here today as she had always tried her best to avoid the clever man whenever he comes.
" Speak, " Carl said coldly and watched nonchalantly as she flinched on the seat.
