The Devilish Assassin Meets The Angelic Detective

*** At Morning Star Media Company ***

Elle became busy with writing articles about the reopening of the case of her Family. She would submit it for release once the Trial began.

She also wrote an article about Alfonso Ramirez. Currently, the prosecutor was finished taking the sworn statement of Edson Tyler.

Carlo Hello and Diego De Dios we're now included in the list of suspects who attacked the Falcon Family Eighteen years ago. Aside from the two of them, Alfonso Ramirez was also put on the wanted list.

Raymond told Erick and Elle that the investigator would release a warrant of arrest against Alfonso Ramirez. The police authorities would start searching Alfonso's whereabouts in order to catch him.

Edson Tyler's statements were a great help in this case. Now, the culprits were named one after another. 

Aside from Edson Tyler, they also had the most important witness who could tell everyone the real motive for killing Agent Falcon and his family. That person was none other than Matt Carter.

Mr. Carter was also the key to involving the Dark Knight Organization in this investigation. It was just a matter of time, the existence of the bio-weapon facility of the Dark Knight Organization would be revealed to the public.

Sandy noticed that Elle was really in a good mood today.

"Ali, hmm. You are very lively and energetic today. Does something good happen?" Sandy asked Elle with a wide smile on her face.

Elle smiled back at Sandy, giving her the flash drive where she saved all the news articles she wrote. Sandy accepted the flash drive.

"Sandy, I will leave this in your care. I might become busy in the coming weeks. I already applied for a vacation leave. Our line manager already approved it," Elle informed Sandy.

"Wow, that's good. But don't exhaust yourself too much. How's your health? Is your pregnancy not giving you a hard time?" Sandy glanced at her belly with her worried look.

Elle also looked down, rubbing her stomach. "Nope. My little Lee is not giving me any problems. It's just that I feel sleepy all the time. But I'm not sensitive when it comes to food and smell, unlike other women."

"Whoah, how about food? Are you not craving for something in particular?" Sandy was really curious.

Elle smiled at her playfully then whispered, "Yes, I am craving something always, but not food. I'm craving for Erick."

After saying that, Elle giggled while Sandy just became speechless. It did not take long when Elle's cellphone rang. It was a call coming from Erick. She answered it right away.

Elle: "Hello, hubby?"

Erick: "Wifey, I called you to remind you to take your lunch on time, Don't forget to take your vitamins as well. Tomorrow is also your schedule of check-ups."

Elle couldn't help but smile because of Erick's thoughtfulness. He was always reminding her what to do so that she and their baby would stay healthy.

Elle: "Yes, hubby. Sandy and I were about to take our lunch. You too."

Erick: "Very good, wifey. I will go to the technician after lunch. We found Allen's cellphone. Hope we can find some clue once we get access to his phone."

Elle: "How is he?"

Elle heard that Erick took a deep sigh from the other line.

Erick: "Not good. He is still unconscious."

She was saddened to hear that news. She knew that Erick was also having a hard time because of what happened to Allen. He was one of the people Allen contacted before he got injured.

Elle: "Hubby, don't blame yourself. This is not your fault. Okay? Everything will be alright. Just have faith. Allen will get better.

Erick: "Thanks, wifey. You know how to comfort me very well. Wifey… I love you."

Elle: "Me too, hubby. I love you so much, Erick."

Erick: "Okay. I will not keep you long. Go out and have some lunch now."

Elle: "Yes, Boss. Bye."

After talking to Erick, Elle and Sandy went out of their office. Josh aka Sherlock was absent today because Supremo gave him a special task. Elle and Sandy were on the way to the restaurant where they often took their lunch when Elle noticed something.

They were being followed. Elle had a bad feeling about this. She simply leaned on Sandy and whispered something to her.

"Sandy, listen carefully to what I am about to say."

Sandy frowned the moment she heard Elle's serious tone. She just bobbed her head obediently. Elle gave Sandy the instruction. After that, Sandy and Elle started to go separate ways.

When Elle was now alone in the streets, the men following them came out of their hiding spot. They immediately surrounded Elle. There were six of them. There were also other men scattered nearby.

They blocked Elle's way. They were really desperate this time, cornering her in the broad daylight. If Elle was not pregnant, she won't hesitate to fight back and beat all these guys. She knew she could do it.

Unfortunately, she was afraid that once she fought back then she would put her baby's life in danger. After all, her enemies were still men and she was outnumbered. There's a high possibility that she might get hurt while fighting them.

She decided to buy time, asking the men innocently as if she had no idea why they were blocking her way.

"Mister, do you need something?" Elle asked the person standing in front of her.

The man was tall, having a strong built. Elle knew that these men were well-trained fighters.

"Yes, Miss. You have to come with us quietly if you don't want to get hurt," The man said, threatening her.

Elle frowned when the man immediately grabbed her wrist. She tried her best not to fight back. She saw them hiding their guns on their jackets. She knew that she had to cooperate with them for her and her baby's safety.

Elle nodded her head. "Okay, Mister. I will come with you peacefully and silently. Just don't hurt me." Elle pretended to be a damsel in distress.

Soon, they escorted Elle to the white van that was parked near the area. Sandy saw everything that happened from the distance. She immediately called Erick to inform him. However, because of her nervousness, Sandy forgot the plate number of the white van.
