[A/N: An exchange agent clears the mission scene after the rescue agent, while the rescue agent carries the mission out.]“I am Agent Andrew Pierre.” He introduced himself but she only glanced at him with a hard expression.Andrew blinked, taken aback by her coldness. He wondered if he had offended her somehow.“We need to inspect the scene before you leave.” She said in a hostile tone as if they had some unresolved issue from the past.Andrew raised a brow, sensing tension he couldn’t place.“Okay,” he said with a nod, stepping aside willingly.He folded his arms, watching her team closely as they got to work.He didn’t receive a memo that this was going to happen, but since it was the first official mission, he decided to let it slide.After all, the system must have missed the prompt to notify him.Still, something about her attitude gnawed at him.She snapped her fingers, and some field agents came down from the truck, they did a quick survey of the site then they attached the c

Andrew paid the cab man handsomely for waiting twenty minutes for him.He had finished his mission at the required time, but the inspection by the super agent had taken more of his time.Her hostility toward him was uncalled for. He clenched his jaw.That was a riddle to solve some other day.He waited patiently in a dark spot near the gate hoping to catch a glimpse of Anna when she arrived with her mom. He kept glancing at his watch.This was the time they usually arrived, after all it was the day that Bella took Anna for her monthly hospital check up.Anna was prone to a hereditary disease from her mom’s side. She was a healthy baby when she was born but the doctors had advised that she come to checkups monthly in case the disease showed up while she was growing.“What! You are in the hospital with Anna?” He heard a man’s voice. He had rushed out of the house.Andrew tensed up and leaned forward to hear him clearly.He squinted his eyes so he could see who it was but could not mak

Benita’s words hit Andrew like a cold splash of water; he was stunned. His ex-wife could not afford to pay a mere sum of a hundred thousand dollars for their daughter’s hospital bill when her company was doing so well.He clenched his jaw but forced himself to stay silent.Andrew’s heart twisted as Anna groaned in her sleep. She was clearly uncomfortable and found it difficult to move because of the needles.“I will pay the money right now." His hand tightened into a fist; it broke him to watch her suffer.Bella stared at her family member, then back at Jacob. When she had told him about it, he had told her that it would take some time to raise that amount of money.“Is this not too much to expect from someone who earns less than 10 thousand dollars monthly?” Benita mocked him.“Andrew, I would like to have a word with you, outside.” Bella said quietly. Her boyfriend gave her kiss on her cheek, showing Andrew that she belonged to himAndrew could not care less about the kiss, he didn

“Sorry to be a bother, young miss, but I am here to see someone.” He said plainly.His tone was calm, but the sharp undertone made her raise a brow.Melissa’s forehead furrowed into a frown, and disgust was written all over her face.“A penurious looking man like you has an appointment with someone here? In the cultural Club? You are a joke! I won’t repeat myself, leave before things get out of hand!”Her glare pierced through him, but Andrew only tightened his jaw, refusing to give her the satisfaction of seeing him flinch. “This is really urgent, I am running out of time. Please let me in and take me to him” Andrew urged, his daughter’s life was at stake.It was natural that he was desperate.“Mr man, I am a very busy woman too. You came here at the rush hour of our business.”“Andrew exhaled slowly, his patience thinning.“To make things easier, just let me in.”“Just let you in?” She was visibly pissed. A mere random looking man was standing in front of her asking her to let him

“Carl, I…” Andrew started, but Carl cut him off before he could finish.“Bro, I will gladly pull out of my sabbatical leave of absence to come and treat your daughter,” Really?” A spark of relief flashed in Andrew’s eyes. He had almost lost hope, but Carl’s words steadied his heart again.He had really lost hope because he thought he had annoyed Carl by asking him to treat his daughter. Though he had other resources, like the medical support the agency had provided for him.Carl Thompson was the best option because of his vast knowledge and skill in modern and traditional medicine. He chose that route so his daughter would not have to spend a long time in the hospital.He’d seen what long hospital stays did, Benson had spent a year wasting away in a ward. He’d never let Anna go through that.“Yes, my bro and this does not even count as the favour ticket. I had offered. The doctors will send me her records, and I will go to the hospital at dawn. Is that okay with you?”Andrew would

Seeing this, Carl had no choice but to return to the little girl’s side. Carl's face cooled; he moved with the quiet speed of someone who never panicked. He had predicted this might happen but there was a chance it wouldn’t.If he were to go by the charts he had read, she was not supposed to convulse at all.Bella quickly rushed over to her daughter, Andrew watched her with a thin, unreadable gaze. “Gina, go get the nurses, call the doctors.” She panicked frantically.The nurses and doctors knew he was coming to attend to Anna, so they were busy in the other wards attending to other patients, knowing Dr Carl could handle the entire ward he had gone to.Carl returned to Anna’s side, flipped his pouch of needles open and brought out a tiny one. Andrew's fingers tightened once on the rail, calm, controlled, like a coiled spring.“Is this man going to touch my daughter?” Bella screamed in his face. “No way! Go get the real doctors, Andrew. I must not lose my baby.”Andrew did not raise h

10 a.m., Grays Hearts Hospital.Jacob arrived later than he should have gotten to the hospital. He had left so late after pretending that he wanted to wait.As he stepped through the automatic doors, he hated hospitals, hated their smell of antiseptic and weakness but he needed to play his role today.He loved to spend time with Bella and Anna but he didn't sign up to nurse any of them in this suffocating space nor spend an unnecessary amount of money in the hospital.His lips curved slightly, a fake smile, if only Bella knew how much he despised wasting his resources.“Hi, Bella.” He kissed her on the cheek, hoping his act of appearing as though he hadn’t slept all night would fool her. His eyes were slightly red from rubbing them before he came in, just enough to pass for exhaustion. When he had gotten home the previous night, he’d collapsed onto the couch and fallen asleep, only to wake up barely twenty minutes before heading to the hospital. He had cursed himself for oversleepi

He had bought the gifts with the intention of giving every family member a valuable item to celebrate their engagement dinner.“Is it odd for the groom to get gifts for the bride’s family? Above all, he is going to marry the bride and they will become family."“You are too cocky for the prices of the gifts you brought.'“ She scoffed. “To qualify as a groom of a Beecroft bride, do you think it ends with gramps giving you his blessing?”Her voice was sharp, but he only smiled.Andrew stared at her in awe, she seemed so different from the women he had seen in the past two days..“Would you do the favour of enlightening me?” Andrew wore a smirk on his face.She snatched the tie from his hand and knotted it for him, “Your outfit passes the first check. About your cheap gifts…” She paused mid sentence.Since he looked more befitting to stand next to her, she didn’t mind anymore.It would be fun to see her family members chew him raw with their words.Now they had a new toy to pick on and s

Lake RanchLakes’ Horse Racing Charity Event“We are not going to act like a couple here, today.” Olivia informed Andrew as she parked her car.Andrew gave no verbal response.Lord Beecroft had insisted that she go in the same car with him to the event; she wasn’t willing to do it.Today she did not even let him drive her car so no one would know that they came together. She opened her purse and pulled out a few dollar notes and stashed them in his pocket.“That should be enough for your transport back home. All you have to do here is stay quiet, pretend that you do not exist and go home after the charity event is over.” She instructed him.“Lord Beecroft asked me to come with you so we could participate in the events together as a couple.”“Stop acting like a bitch.”“Livy?” A young woman around their age yelled, Olivia turned to look. She was curious to see who had called her by that name, only her old friend called her by that name.Her eyes fell on the person who had called her.

“Is that not your fiancé?” Maggie pointed out when she saw Andrew with Chad and Olivia’s cousin Becca. “Why is he with them?”“Ah, I don’t have a good feeling about this.” Olivia said aloud. She could not tell what he was thinking, and her cousin being there even made things worse because she knew Becca was definitely up to no good.“We should go and check what they are up to if you are bothered about what’s going on there,” Maggie suggested."Yeah, we should,” she answered absentmindedly and they went over to the stable.“What are you doing?” Olivia gritted her teeth when she got to him.Andrew was looking through the stables for a sturdy and perfect horse for the race. “Picking a horse.”“I can see that, stupid. What are you thinking of going on a race with Lake Chad?”“He is a champion in horse racing. Do you plan to join in so Becca can mock me all day long when you lose?”“You are convinced I will lose when the game has not started; that's not the best thing you can do for a spor
