Unexpected Encounter:They Were Meant To Be Together

Chapter 865: Risky



An unusual silence enveloped the entire room. Neither Ashton nor Elsa uttered a single word for quite some time. The silence made Elsa's heart beat faster. Nothing would change the love she had for Ashton in her heart but she was also worried.

Elsa very well knew the darkness of the world Ashton could possibly be a part of. She also knew how things worked there which always scared her.

"Like everyone, I have a dark side too." Pausing for a while, Ashton added, "I don't know what he told you but I can vaguely guess it. Neither is he one hundred percent wrong nor a hundred percent correct."

"I know you might be having many questions in your mind right now and it's completely normal of you to feel that way." Gently caressing her back, he stated, "I am not gonna lie to you but this is who I am and how things are meant to be. And it's not like I can't change things, I can but I don't want to."

Helplessly shaking his head, he chuckled, "I know it sounds weird but well, this is how it is. But despite everything, I want you to know that I love you and I would do anything to keep you safe even at the cost of my life because that is how much you mean to me."

Snuggling closer, she answered, "I know. You don't have to explain yourself—"

"I wanted to talk to you about it a long time back but something or the other kept coming up so—" Helplessly shaking his head, he sighed, "I am just glad we had this talk. I just wanted to know how you feel about it."

"I don't know how I feel about it but—Just give me a little time, maybe I will get used to it. I mean—"

"I understand. Take all the time you want, there is no need to rush. Just remember that I love you, okay?" When she smiled and nodded her head, he inquired, "So do you want me to order breakfast or make one for you?"

"Just order something light, I don't want you to burn down my kitchen."

"You are what? Are you both out of your mind?" Zixin fornwed.

"Zixin is right and when did this incident happen with Linyang?" Without waiting for their reply, Liang snapped, "And why didn't you or Linyang tell me anything about it?"

"Linyang is okay and Pulos didn't want to hurt her—"

Cutting him off, Liang frowned, "And how are you so sure about it? Did you forget that he betrayed you and joined forces with Lawrence and now they are after your life?"

"Yes I do but I have this feeling that Pulos is trying to tell me something and to find that out, I need to meet him," Andrew stated.

"This is stupidity," Huang exclaimed.

"Huang is right, do you have any idea what you are planning to do?" Looking at him, Zian added, "You are deliberately throwing yourself unarmed in front of our enemy without thinking about the consequences."

Everyone was against the idea of Andrew meeting Pulos somewhere private. After how Pulos had started working with Lawrence, it would be quite stupid to trust him but Andrew wanted to which made everyone question his decision.

"I very well know what the consequences are but—"

"Then why would you do this? Why are you willingly risking your life?" Huang snapped.

"You guys don't understand, the note which Pulos left for me is a very big proof that he wants to talk to me in private." Taking the note out of his pocket, Andrew kept it on the table. "These words are enough for me to understand what he wants."

Taking the note in his hand, Zian read it aloud. "Meet me at the abandoned building at full moon. Where the sun shines the brightest." Scrunching his brows, he inquired, "What does this mean?"

"It means he wants to meet me in two days in an abandoned building near the graveyard," Andrew explained. Without waiting for anyone's reply, he further explained, "'Full moon, where the sun shines the brightest are a few words we use to convey each other confidential messages."

Thinking for a while, Huang inquired, "Why did he suddenly use these codes?"

"Exactly, either he really wants to tell you something or this is a trap," Zixin stated.

"I know this is risky and I should probably not trust someone like Pulos but what other choice do we have? We don't know where Lawrence is and what he is up to. If I get anything out of Pulos then this can be our only chance to get out of this messy situation," Andrew explained. He knew everyone was worried about his safety but they also couldn't afford to lose such an opportunity.

"What Andrew is trying to say somewhat makes sense." Michael remarked. "At first even I was against it but after weighing the pros and cons, I think it's worth a shot. Anyway, we are doing this together so we will have each other's company."

Shrugging his shoulder, Zixin sighed, "What can we say when you both are determined? I don't know what kind of a man Pulos is but I do know how Lawrence is and how his brain works. I have never met anyone as sly as him and his moves are almost unpredictable so we have to be very careful."

"Zixin is right. You can't just walk there and meet him casually, we need to go there prepared to face all kinds of consequences," Huang added.

"Yes, we will take all necessary precautions."

"What about the location? Did you find out the exact building or place?" Zian inquired.

Michael nodded his head and answered, "Yes, it turns out there is an abandoned warehouse near a graveyard in the outskirts and fortunately, no other graveyard has an abandoned building so close to it. So I am guessing that is the one."
