Chapter 261 - Act



Tim had resumed his work the day after he had gone to the warehouse to meet Jared\'s Godfather as per his instructions. It had been an utter waste of time and energy as the man had not even made an attempt to come to them. So, Jared and the others had returned without meeting him. But this was something they were happy about. That man was a devil, more horrible than Jared. So, they never wanted to meet him, ever.

But since then, Tim had not seen Ivy leave or enter her house, nor did he see Joshua. This was quite suspicious. A week had passed and Tim had been keeping an eye on her apartment from dawn till midnight. But he had never seen Ivy in the duration. His suspicions rose and he realized something to be wrong. Not wasting any more time, he placed a call to his Master who at that moment was sitting in his office, not doing anything. 

Jared was in deep thought when Tim\'s call disturbed. He was devising a new plan to sabotage Regal Medical Hospital\'s reputation. His previous attempt in destroying it had gone down the hill and the hospital had gained more recognition for its good work. People were praising it all the more. It was already quite a famous and preferred hospital in the country for its best quality doctors and reasonable and genuine medical fees compared to the other hospital in a similar tier. This puny attempt did not even leave a small scratch on their long history of good work.

"Yes, Tim? What news do you have for me today?" Jared asked with a small sigh. He had been exhausted lately and was finding even a small disturbance irritating. His poor assistant was on the verge of committing suicide due to his Master\'s wrath. He had become more terrifying and each day, it was only reaching new peaks.

"Master, there is something wrong here. I have been keeping an eye on Ivy and for the entire week, she has neither left her house nor have I seen her return home. It\'s a little suspicious now that I think about it."

Tim\'s words made Jared frown. He was suspicious, but it was for a different reason. He had an inkling that Ivy must have known about Tim following her to move out of her house all of a sudden. And Joshua\'s involvement was another thing to be considered. What if she had moved in with him now that they were in a relationship? This was a possibility too. But Jared hoped that was not the case. If his assumptions were true and Ivy was the person behind vandalizing his plans, then it would become a problem to get to her. Joshua was not an ordinary person and Jared knew better about him than anyone. He had the information of all the people around Noah and Joshua was his best friend. So, this matter had become worse with them in the picture. He had to look into this issue thoroughly.

"What about her friends? Have you asked your men to follow them?"

Tim scratched his head in confusion. \'Was I supposed to keep a lookout for them too? Why didn\'t I know about it? Nobody told me about it. Why?\' He cried inwardly. How was he supposed to convey this message to his Master was like a ticking time bomb ready to explode any moment?

Jared could sense something to be not right from Tim\'s silence. It could only mean one thing, he had not done the job he was given. "What happened, Tim?" He asked softly. Though his Master sounded very calm, only Tim knew that it was not the case. His Master was angry now and he was the one to be on the receiving end.

"I haven\'t been keeping an eye on the others. I don\'t know what they are up to."

"Why?"

"Master, I was not informed in the change of plans. So, I did not know I was supposed to follow them too."

"What do you mean by nobody informed. I clearly told you about it." Jared seethed. He was now utterly pissed and Tim could feel the monster\'s anger even from where he was. It was nerve-wracking and cold sweat trickled down his spine. 

"No Master. I have not received any new instructions." Tim stayed with his words adamantly, not caring if he was to lose his life by the end of the day.

"Are you telling me that I am lying now?" Jared stood up from his chair and hissed. His eyes were blazing fire in anger and if his assistant were to enter right now, he would have had a heart attack in fear.

"No Master. I am not saying that. I am sorry Master. I failed to do my job correctly." Tim surrendered immediately. He was sure that if he continued and held on to his words, which was the truth, in fact, his head would be chopped off and his body would be lying in the gutter.

"Wait a second. Let me call my assistant. We will sort this out right now." Jared called his assistant the next moment and the guy came running to his cabin. Seeing his Master\'s furious face, his legs gave away and he had to hold on to the table edge to remain standing.

"Yes, Master?" He tried to sound as polite as possible, trying to hide his fear. Yet, it still came out as a stutter.

"Was Tim supposed to send his men to follow the girl and her colleagues?"

"Yes, Master."

"Didn\'t I give him the orders to do so?" 

Jared\'s question rendered his assistant speechless. How was he supposed to tell him that he had not issued any orders? This would only irk his Master more. He would only be risking his life. But he knew his lie would cost Tim his life and they were sworn brothers since the time they had started working for Jared. He had to save him at all costs. 

"Answer me." Jared roared making his assistant and Tim flinch. 

"No Master. No orders of such were given to him."

Tim heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the man\'s words. At least he had not lied blatantly. He secretly made a promise to return this favor some day. 

"Is it?" Jared asked, this time with a confused expression. His anger had subdued and he looked a lot peaceful now.

"Yes Master."

"I must have forgotten. My bad." Jared laughed loudly taking Tim by shock. He wondered if the man suffered from bipolar disorder for him to change his demeanor this quickly. This man was unpredictable.

"Tim, then I give you the orders now. Find out what they are up to and also find out where that girl is staying right now. I want all the details. Another thing," Jared stopped suddenly making Tim wait in anticipation. 

"Since the girl is not at hime, break into her house and try to search for some clues. We might find something suspicious. But be careful. We do not want people knowing about us."

"Yes Master." He replied courteously. He was happy to have been saved today and all the credit went to Jared\'s assistant. He thanked him in his mind and went to follow his next orders.

He first called his men and commanded them to follow the four people. When everything was set, he then proceeded to finish his next orders. He went towards the apartment building and tried to see any possible way to slip in without being noticed. But the gates were locked and it would open only if the person was a resident or if he was given permission to enter. Now, the problem was neither was he a resident nor did he know anybody here. So, how was he supposed to get inside?

When he trying to find a solution, he noticed an old woman walking towards him and an idea struck his mind. As soon as the woman came near him, he acted as though he was feeling dizzy and fainted right in front of her, terrifying her. The woman was a kind hearted person. She rushed to the man and tried to hold him.

"Oh my God. Dear, what happened to you?" He patted his cheeks softly trying to wake him up. But the man remained sleeping. He did not have any intentions of opening his eyes. The watchman came running hearing the old woman and he too was shocked on seeing a man lying unconsucious before him. He knew the lady as she was a resident of the apartment he worked as a watchman for. 

"Madam, what happened?"

"This young guy fainted before me." The woman replied. "Do you have some water?"

"Yes Madam." The watchman went back and returned with a bottle of water.

The lady sprinkled some water on Tim\'s face and this time he could not continue his act. He moved slowly and opened his eyes.

"Are you alright dear?" The lady asked in concern and Tim smiled inwardly.

\'Emotional fools.\'

"Yes. I am fine now. Thank you for your help." He said and tried to get up.

"Can you get up, dear?"

"Yes Madam." Tim got up with great difficulty.

"What happened dear?"

"Nothing madam. I haven\'t eaten today and I have diabetes. So, this must be it. The low insulin content must have affected me."

"Oh dear. Please have something then."

"Yes Mam. I was waiting for my cousin. But she had to leave due to some emergency and now I can\'t enter without her permission."

"You can come again some other day right?" The watchman suggested.

"No Sir. I don\'t stay here. I travelled overnight to meet her and now she is not picking her calls. So, I was waiting for her."

"What is the name of your cousin dear?" The woman asked picking up her bag, which was lying on the ground.

"Ivy, Ivy West."

"I know that young lady. Your cousins are sweet girls." The woman answered and Tim wondered who was his other cousin. Did Ivy have a sibling he did not know about?

"Yes Mam. They are very sweet."

"If you want you can come and stay in my house until your cousin returns."

"No Mam. I don\'t want to trouble you. I will be fine."

"There\'s no trouble dear. Come with me."

"But Mam." The watchman tried to object. He was not sure if he wanted the man to enter before his identity was confirmed. But the old lady stopped him.

"It\'s okay. I trust him." The lady entered the building after pressing her finger on the scanner and Tim followed her with an evil smile on his face.

He had entered the aparment. All that was left was to find Ivy\'s flat number and break in.
