The Billionaire's Kept Woman

Chapter 402 – Cold Day

  Ace was standing at the tower. The battlefield was still there. It will be bloody. Right now, the old man is enraged because of what he witnessed. It is the Queen's plan. He sighed and shook his head. This war shouldn't happen. They can't risk the civilians and the Queen is doing everything to prevent them from entering the boundary. It will be hard but they are already engaged. 

  In a day, he needs to leave. He turned her head to Johanna who also stood one meter from him. 

"It's fresh air." She said. 

"I heard that they built him a suit full of lethal weapons." 

"I know that." She smiled. "He might kill me, but I won't let him. I've been waiting for him for years. Now, he will come." She smiled at him bitterly. 

"Don't worry!" He exclaimed cheerfully. "I will protect you and Victor." 

"How?" She asked. 

"Did you forget that my surname is 'Control'." 

  She giggled like a girl and then she smacked his arm. 

"Right, I forgot." She sighed. "I can't wait for it to happen." She mumbled. 

"Well, I can't stay in one place." Ace told her. "I have to go back and have a great day with my love." He patted her back and went downstairs. 

  He met a few agents who stopped and saluted him. He nodded his head and rushed outside. It was a long way to the parking lot but he managed to get in there. He drove his sports car back to the city which is a two hours drive. But then, it takes him less than two hours to get there. There wasn't much traffic at all. In time, he reached the main building. The security quickly approached him as they mumbled on the radio. They even escorted him to the VIP elevator. 

  He reached the floor where the CEO's office is located. Employees glanced at him from left to right as he only walked straight to the CEO's office. The assistant greeted him. 

"This way, sir." She gestured and opened the door for him. Currently, Guinevere is having a meeting with the IT directors, executives, and Security Protection Directors. They stood and saluted him. He saluted back and then, he gestured and sat down on the vacant sofa near Guinevere. 

"We need all of the files to be uploaded to the cloud." She continued speaking. "Can you make a server that won't get invaded by the snakes?" She asked. 

"Of course, babe. I got it ready." He winked. Guinevere didn't react the way he flirted. 

"You can disseminate it to them." She told him. 

  She glanced at the clock. Then, a red wail echoes around the country. Guinevere looked at the digital wall clock wherein a few hours, they had to leave the city. They will be in lockdown. Most of the people already packed up after the Serpent started sending troops. They also stopped foreigners from entering the country. 

"That's all for now. Everyone can go home." She told them. They stood and bowed their heads. Ace nodded his head and looked at Guinevere who looked so tired and so anxious. 

"Babe," He scooped her hand and he bent down to kiss it. "Don't worry. You will be safe." 

"I am not worried about myself." She stood and sat over his lap. She snuggled to him and kissed his lips. He hugged her tightly. "I'm worried about the people. They just started to live comfortably." She mumbled. 

"Hey, we will take care of this." Ace kissed her forehead. A knock on the door interrupts them. The secretary peeked. 

"You may leave now," Guinevere said. "All of you are dismissed." 

"Y-Yes, Ma'am." 

  Ace leaned on the sofa and caressed her thigh. 

"The sirens are very loud and disturbing." 

"I know." He whispered. He kissed her head and squeezed her in his arms. "Stay with the Queen. Okay?" 

"I will." She sighed and stared at his handsome face. "You still look young while I look old." 

"You don't look old." He chuckled. "You are the most beautiful and sexiest person I know." He caressed her hair. "I bought your skincare and facial massager. You need to use that before you sleep." 

"Right," She sighed. 

"I have to go back in a few hours. But I still have time to be with you." He winked. 

"Wait, send them the link first." 

"Oh," 

  He pulled out his phone and sent the link on where they are going to store the most valuable documents. Then, he grinned at her. 

"Can we do it here now?" 

"No, dummy. Let's go home." She pushed him as she stood. She took her purse and a bigger bag that contained important documents. He then took the CPU and placed it on another bag as they left the office. The security guard waited for them and escorted them to the parking lot. There are still employees who are packing and rushing out. 

  Shortly they arrived in the guest house that was set for Guinevere. They went directly to the bedroom. After he placed the CPU just beside the table, he quickly carried her to the bed. They don't have much time for more sex.

  Violet sighed as she stared at the chemicals that she built to help Victor. With Hannah Grace's help, she manages to build the most effective antidote.  It will be a long process. However, she needs to get it ready. One thing before she gave it to Victor. She needs to know what else they have been experimenting on Victor so he wouldn't die. 

  She pulled out his phone and checked Kal's adorable face in a chef hat. 

"I love you, Kal." She sighed and slid her phone back into her pocket. Then, she closes the briefcase as the team continues manufacturing and sealing the antidotes. "Get ready!" She exclaimed. 

  The other side started packing everything. They have to leave in a few hours. It will all happen in the other country. She sighed and glanced at the empty spaces. They've been packing for a few days now and most of the agents standby to protect the royal family, the assets, and other things. She went to the rooftop to meet Leon. He was currently speaking to Alicia and she bet that he had already spoken to her. 

"Don't forget to drink your vitamins too." He said softly. "I will be gone for a few days, probably weeks or months. Yes…" he grinned. "I love you more. I will be back soon." He smiled for three seconds and hung up. He sighed and turned around. 

"Done coaxing your girl?" Violet asked. 

"Yup," He shrugged. "I don't know but she doesn't want me to leave." He mumbled. 

"Intuition." She told him and gave the antidote. "Let's go." 

  Harvey was near the end of the rooftop. He spread his arms and looked up. 

"Fuck!" He exclaimed. 

"Fuck!" Leon and Violet responded. 

"We are off to war again." He grinned and looked at them. "Unfortunately, our big brother was somehow our enemy." 

"Let's just be careful not to get killed," Leon said. "My girl needs me." 

  Violet rolled her eyes and shook her head. 

"You better understand that word. Or else she will come to you and kill you by herself." 

"Yup. I am more scared of her than this war." He mumbled. 

  Soon, their helicopter arrived and they all hopped in. They went directly to the private plane port of the Rossie Empire. They own hectares of the land. Their agents are already on the plane. There could be sabotage anytime and they are ready. They depart together with another plane leaving the Philippines. Since there are a lot of planes leaving the country, they wouldn't fire any of them. Three of their planes were disguised as usual airlines. Of course, it has a permit and everything. 

  This war is expensive and they aren't that poor not to put a lot of money in this war. Back then, they were outnumbered and couldn't fight. They fled together with people who came with them. They hide, grow and let that country fall into the dirty hands of a traitor. 

"Let's end this," Harvey said as soon as they sat down on their seats together with other agents. 

  Violet relaxes as she scrolled through her phone, looking at Kal's photos, Quinn, Dione's, and their videos with the puppies made her anxiety fade. She sighed and looked out at the window. 

  After a few hours of flight, they landed at the international airport. They quickly disseminate. Harvey, Leon, and Violet went to the castle. They were greeted right away and offered drinks yet they didn't drink anything. Karmina was busy scrolling through the tablet while Harvey was contacting people. 

"I see that it's already a ghost town." He said. 

"Hello, Prince." Karmina smiled at him. "Everyone has already evacuated. We can't let anyone stay longer in their houses." 

  Harvey sat on the throne just beside his mother and slouches. 

"I'm tired." He said. "I miss my wife and Dione too." 

"I know." Karmina patted his head. "How's your sister?" 

"Well, she's enjoying being a mother to the babies." He chuckled. "I think they are enjoying." He told him. 

"Be careful out there." She said softly. 

"I will." 

"Your baby sister is waiting there too." 

"Great, I will go there now." He kissed his mother's forehead and he did the same to his father. "Vi," He called. 

  She approached Karmina and gave the briefcase to her. 

"Come back you all," Karmina told him. 

"We will," Violet smirked and turned back.
