Unexpected Love: One Night With Mr CEO

"Okay, then I'll turn off the call. I saw Edward and Byanca, looks like they want to go somewhere," said Brian.

"Okay, be careful. Don't be rash. Make sure Dave's condition is okay before bringing him here," Edrick ordered his adopted brother.

And after that, the connection is lost. Cold sweat was evident on his forehead. Even though the weather is getting hot now.

Without knowing it, Leo had heard everything he said to Brian. A few moments ago, Leo had attached a very small recording device to Edrick's body. When one does not pay close attention to it, then the tool is very hard to find.

The hidden voice recorder came from Uncle Naila. The middle-aged man asked him to attach the device to Javier family's body secretly just in case. And that was also one of the reasons why the man was acting so calm, calmer than Devan.

After contacting Brian, Edrick immediately contacted Edward. If his guess was right, maybe his older brother would pay a visit to this hospital.

This couldn't be allowed, Edward couldn't come here at this time. The situation could be made worse if Mr. X saw Edward in this place. He couldn't imagine anything bad that would happen next.

So there was no other choice but to prevent Edward from visiting the hospital.

"Hello," Edward's voice came from across the phone.

"What are you calling me for?" he asked again.

"I want to ask you a favor, Edward. May I?" asked Edrick.

"What's that? Tell me."

"Dad asked me to take a document in his room at home and hand it to Brian at the office, if you are not busy, can you do it?" asked Edrick, he was feeling a little worried, because his request was a little unreasonable. Even so, he still hoped that Edward would comply with his request.

"Where's Marlin? Why don't you ask your assistant?" Edward asked.

"He's not here, I also ordered something to him earlier."

"Why didn't you do it, or maybe you could have someone else do it, Edrick. Why should I?"

"No. It is an important document. If I did, then Dad would be alone in this hospital. I can't bear to leave him. After all, it's an important document, no one else should touch it," replied Edrick, growing increasingly nervous.

"I'll have Kevin do it. I'm on my way to the hospital now. Since last night, I can't calm down thinking about Father's condition."

"No, don't do it. Erm I mean, if the document isn't important. I'm not calling you, Edward. I have many subordinates that I can command. This time understands, this is the first time I'm asking for your help after all," Edrick replied, slightly pleading.

A sigh came from the other end of the phone. "Okay, I'll call you later when I arrive at the home," Edward replied finally obeying his younger brother's words.

"Okay. Thank you."

"Okay."

After the connection was lost, Edrick did not move from his position, the man was still standing there and playing on his cellphone. Suddenly a plan appeared in his mind, a plan that might help Brian.

He immediately contacted Marlin again. Tells the man that Edward and Byanca are on their way to Javier's residence, he then orders his assistant to get Byanca away from Brian at all costs. Edrick also asked Marlin to be careful, he advised him that Edward not to suspect let alone know that this was planned by him.

Yes, the only good chance is right now. There is a saying that once oars two islands are crossed.

Besides being able to give Brian a chance to save Dave, he could also get rid of the woman during the trip to Javier's house.

A deep sigh could be heard escaping from between Edrick's lips. For some reason, he felt very tired. He hopes that everything will run smoothly without any obstacles. Because only with this, his father's wish can come true without hurting Edward in the slightest.

While on the other hand, Leo who was sitting on the sofa was silent as he closed his eyes. Looks like a sleeping person, but in reality, he is listening to all of Edrick's conversations outside the room.

As for Devan, the man looked restless in his place. A call came in on his cell phone, it was Claire, the woman asked how things were there because they had spent a very long time without giving any news. The woman was just worried and wanted to come in, but Devan reassured her that everything was fine, and she had to be patient and just wait in the car.

Leo opened his eyes as the door to the room suddenly opened. Edrick came back into the room.

"How long should I wait?" asked Devan impatiently.

"As soon as possible, sir. You don't have to worry, your son will come back safe and sound without the slightest blemish," replied Edrick as he bowed and then stood up straight again.

While Leo, the man sent a message to Naila's Uncle, asking the middle-aged man to get ready to welcome a guest. Even though he wasn't sure that Edward would make it to that house, he still warned Uncle Ethan. Having preparation is better than nothing.

Elsewhere, Brian has entered the apartment building and is currently heading to the apartment unit where Edward lives. He was not alone, he was with Kevin and some of his men, while the rest remained outside the apartment, just in case Edward suddenly returned.

Right after they arrived at the door, Brian immediately pressed the password that was the key to the apartment door, and it worked.

"Kevin, come with me, and you guys stay here," Brian said to those with him.

Just as he entered the apartment, his cell phone rang. An incoming message from Edrick. A faint smile appeared on his lips when he learned of all of Edrick's plans.

'If it's like this everything will be easier, and I won't feel troubled,' he thought then continued his steps again.

"Check all the rooms, Kevin," Brian ordered.

"Okay, sir," replied the man.

The apartment was modest in size, not spacious, and not cramp, There were several rooms there, Kevin checked them one by one. All the rooms he checked were empty, no one was there. Until he came to a final room.

"Sir, this room is locked.. I can't open it," Kevin told Brian.
