421 Meet Bee and Ve
The arrival of Oliver Lee and his men was warmly welcomed by Jack and Areez, replacing Christian who was accompanying Zwetta to meet Veronika and Beatrice. After learning about all of Robin and her co-workers’ cheating, Zwetta forces Christian to let her meet Beatrice and Veronika. Zwetta wants to speak to the two girls before being brought back to New York to receive punishment for their past actions.
“How is he? Can I see him soon?” asked Oliver Lee impatiently.
Jack smiled. “Why the rush, haven’t you just arrived, sir?”
Oliver Lee’s face looked increasingly tense, he knew that Jackson Clarke was a dangerous person. Talking longer with him will only make all his secrets more exposed.
“My father-in-law is not as cruel as my brother-in-law, you don’t need to be afraid of him, Oliver,” Areez said slowly trying to provoke Oliver Lee who looked so tense.
Oliver Lee stared blankly at Areez.
“I’m sorry,” Areez said again. “I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Areez Floyen, son-in-law of Jackson Clarke. Maybe you’ve heard my name before.”
Oliver Lee’s face reddened, looking very surprised to hear the full name of the silver-haired young man who had just introduced himself.

.....
“How did a Floyen end up in Luxembourg and become Jackson Clarke’s future son-in-law?” asked Oliver Lee absently, his green eyes showing utter horror. The big name Floyen had been on Oliver Lee’s head for quite some time.
“Why do you look so surprised to hear Areez’s last name, sir? Has Areez ever gotten you in trouble before?” asked Erick curiously, continuing to pay attention to the change in Oliver Lee’s facial expression since the man got off the plane an hour ago making Erick unable to contain his curiosity any longer.
“I.” Areez pointed at his own nose using his index finger. “I gave the chief of New York City a hard time? Nothing wrong?” Even though Areez spoke with a smile, there was an implied meaning in his words that only Oliver Lee could understand.
Oliver Lee pursed his lips. “Who doesn’t know the Floyen family, the last descendants of one of the European royals that ruled New Zealand for centuries.” Oliver’s eyes stared at Areez without blinking as he spoke. “And I’m one of those people who has heard how great the Floyen family was in their heyday.”
“So you only know Areez that much?” Erick asked again.
Oliver Lee nodded his head, he chose not to disturb Areez. Oliver was already dizzy enough facing Christian and he didn’t want to add any more problems, Christian and Areez were the perfect combo duo that would destroy him without a trace if he tried to fight them both.
“Don’t keep teasing our guests, Erick,” Jack said quietly. “Mr. Oliver Lee needs to rest after a long, tiring flight from New York.”
Erick lowered his head. “I’m sorry sir.”
Areez, who still wanted to tease Oliver, then put his arm around the New York City police chief’s shoulder without guilt. “Let’s go to the dining room, it seems my mother-in-law has finished preparing food for you.”
Before Oliver Lee had time to answer, Areez had started to make his way, forcing Oliver to follow his steps past Jack and the others without guilt. Areez wanted to give his old colleague a special greeting.
“It seems that your future son-in-law is not just anyone, Mr. Clarke,” Dimitry said quietly. “I could clearly see the great fear in Oliver Lee’s eyes.”
Jack pursed his lips. “Very well then, Suri is in the hands of the right person then.”

The main base of The Warrior.
Christian had kept his arm around Zwetta’s since getting out of the car, even though they were currently in a place that Christian knew so well, but Christian had not relaxed his attention from Zwetta. Christian wants to show all members of The Warrior to keep his eyes on the mistress they must respect.
“Are Ve and Bee really in this place?” asked Zwetta back for the umpteenth time.
Christian smiled. “The two of them are treated very well in this place, you don’t need to worry. None of the members of The Warrior who stand guard in this place dare to do anything bad to the two girls, after all, the members of The Warrior who stand guard in this place will definitely think twice to mess with the two girls who are already highly trained like Bee and Ve.”
“I’m serious, Christian.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Me too, honey.”
Zwetta chuckled in annoyance, Christian was really very smart to keep him curious.
“After this door we will arrive at our destination,” Christian said again.
Zwetta’s heartbeat raced twice as fast, even though she already knew Beatrice and Veronika very well, now Zwetta’s had changed. After learning about all the crimes and fraud committed by the two co-workers as well as sisters in one struggle, Zwetta’s of the two of them has now changed. Disappointment, anger and sadness mixed into one in her chest at this time.
“They’re both behind this door.” Christian whispers under his breath. “Do you want me to accompany you or...”
“Can I meet them alone?”
Christian smiled. “Of course you can, why not?” Christian lands a kiss on Zwetta’s affectionately. “I’ll be waiting for you outside, they won’t be able to hurt you so don’t be afraid.”
Zwetta nodded her head, confidently she stepped forward towards the door that was still closed in front of her. Zwetta’s smile immediately widened when she saw the room where Beatrice and Veronika were.
“No wonder Christian let me meet them,” Zwetta softly. The room where Beatrice and Veronika are is divided into two rooms, the first room is where both Beatrice and Veronika’s beds are along with a table for eating and a sofa for relaxing and the second room is an empty room with a chair and a small table separated by a glass bulletproof see-through which has several pinholes for communication.
The arrival of Zwetta who suddenly appeared in the room made Beatrice and Veronika almost scream out loud, both of them looked so surprised to see Zwetta in front of them. But Beatrice and Veronika’s surprise didn’t last long. As soon as their senses returned, both Beatrice and Veronika immediately looked tense.
“Why are you guys so quiet all of a sudden?”asked Zwetta quietly. “You two still recognize me, don’t you?”
silence.
Beatrice and Veronika didn’t move, neither of them answered Zwetta’s words.
“If you are silent right now because you are guessing whether I know everything or not then the answer is I already know everything, including the purpose of the actual mission we are doing. I already know that you all have been fooling me for years.”
