After the late-night talk with Charles, Mr Pertrov couldn't help worry. He was sleeping in his bedroom when the call arrived. Though he acted as it was funny in front of Charles, but still due to the call his sleep was disturbed. Z was in the City M, if everything goes his ways as usual not only most political figures but also the crime branch, the military was also going to get criticized. Mr Pertrov was a proud military officer he wasn't going to let a criminal dirty his countries name.

He needed to get Charles once again involved in the operation officially, he was working unofficially until now which wasn't much effective. This was going to be hard! Mr Petrov got up from the bed and made a call.

In an apartment that seemed to be an incomplete mess. The phone ranged with screen showing 'work', the female gamer who was just too close to victory in the game was first going to ignore it. But after reading 'work' she stopped her game, it was too late her character died. In annoyance, she slides the answer button.

"Hello, boss. There are times you shouldn't call."

"Z is in the city, do you know that?"

Mr Petrov spoke directly without caring for the game's music coming from the other side.

"Of course. He made a fuzz just today."

The female voice seemed angry but her eyes were brightly shining despite the black eye bags she had.

"Charles got a warning today. So, I want you to get ready. Keep an eye on the internet these days, any movement inform me."

"Yes, boss."

The phone was cut as a grin formed on the female's face. It was her dream to go against Z, for her this was once in a lifetime opportunity. Z was the current leader of hacker form if she were to go against him it had higher chances of failing but she wanted to do it anyway.

"Kira baby, aren't you going to sleep." Ivan was standing at the door of the room, Kira froze for a moment thinking did he hear her call? But acted as usual.

"Ivan just one more level. I am going to bet that arrogant guy."

Ivan went into the bedroom once again in a sleepy state as if he was half asleep. Seeing this Kira sighed relief.

Unbestowned to him, not only he didn't know his fiancee was going to get involved with a criminal while assisting his boss, but he was also going to get scolded tomorrow for not picking his calls by the boss himself.

After an hour of a one-sided fight on the phone, Obi finally subdued his wife's anger(she is his girlfriend don't misunderstand). With clearly annoyed at Chase's role in her life, but from inside he knew the relationship was something rather pure. But why didn't she understand Chase is two-faced bastard? Obi are if he was two-faced.

He entered the hall in a hurry when he remembered a certain thing. Though he wasn't a great manager, he did his job seriously. A little bit of talking, time management, connections that's all it took.

In the hall, the teenager was still playing the piano, but now he was completely immersed in it. As if it was only him and music in the whole world at this moment. Obi was seeing this from a distance while leaning on one of the walls. It wasn't clear on his face but he was feeling quite uncomfortable. He stood there without disturbing the teenager until the piece ends. To his relief, the piece ended early.

"Are you going to make a hole in my head with your glare?" The youngster taunted Obi without looking back, knowing he didn't have the energy to fight anymore. Obi ignored the teenager's remark and went straight to the point.

"What are you going to do with the recording room?"

"Recording music, it's not like I use it for something else."

Chase winked at Obi, who shook Obi head while excepting his fate. Chase doesn't just lack common sense but his sense of humour was also missing.

"The apartment doesn't have a recording room-"

"Director JJ is helping me with that, it's not like I have to stay in country A for too long. Once my work is done, I won't even stay here another day." Chase didn't give Obi the chance to finish his sentence. He sounded desperate for some reason. Chase has never been a person who would work without making complete preparation but this time Obi thought it was somehow different.

'Different' this word was only applicable for Chase who wouldn't even bat an eye even if the world was ending when his mother was involved. It was understandable sometimes as he lost her too early, but other times it only felt like an obsession of getting something that he could never have. As to him, she was the only person in the world who had probably loved him without asking for anything in return, and the only white person in the grey world. They say you won't crave for something you never had in the first place, it wasn't applicable for Chase regarding 'Sonia Alexandrova'.

Just like her name she was a wise person but fell in love with the person she shouldn't have. Not only did it destroyed her career as a top actress but also her life wasn't saved from it. Losing her life in childbirth-

Oops, a car accident at the peak of her career. Chase sometimes really get inspired by his father's way of doing things, death from childbirth to a car accident in an intoxicated state, really a hell of a person his father is!
