Lena head out and her Shen Milli was still sitting on the bench outside, waiting for her.
"You"re back. Did everything go well?"
"Yeah." Lena replied. "You"re tired. I will take you home. We can go shopping at another time."
Shen Milli got up from the bench and head inside the car with Lena. When they got home, Lena did not stay. She had one of their drivers drive her back to her apartment. Kris and she would be going out tomorrow.
It was only the afternoon. Since Lena did not go into her office, she still called Diane to check up on her work. It"s been months since she finalized her design program and the college boys were still waiting to hear from Lena about meeting their master.
Lena gave Gary another call. She at least owed the college boys something for their hard work.
"Hey." Gary answered.
"Is Kris still with you?"
"Does it matter?"
"No." Lena replied. "Anyways, are you looking for apprentices? Or slaves?"
"Lena... I thought I had gone to the dark side, but it seems you are sitting right along with me."
"Yes. We are in it together, buddy."
Gary laughed. "I could use some slaves. Andy already replied with the land deal."
"Great. I caught these boys awhile back to work on something for me."
"Work on something for you? I thought I was your call guy?" Gary whined.
"Well, it is good to always have plan B. Afterall, we both almost died. I can"t rely on you for everything anymore." Lena pointed out.
"You"re right. You got your rich*ss boyfriend now. You got a plan B with him?"
"There is no plan B with love." Lena answered. "But anyways.. I"ll send you their contact your way. Be nice to them."
Lena hung up the phone and shook her head... what is so cool about the deep web anyways? Lena was perfectly fine with the mediocre skills she got.
While Lena was doing work from home, Milo Hu finally arrived at Tyler"s hotel suite. He knocked on the door twice before Tyler opened the door.
Just then, Sammy came rus.h.i.+ng out and hugged her dad. "Daddy!"
"Sammy!" Milo hugged her up and then settled her back down. "Why are you not with you mom?"
"I.... I don"t want to live with her, please. Please don"t make me go back." Sammy was sad.
"Come here.." Milo hugged her again and looked at Tyler.
"Come inside." Tyler looked back at him.
All of them walked back to the living room.
"Boss... I am sorry for all of this." Milo lowered his head. "I... I understand if I cannot perform my duty for you anymore since this had happened."
"This is a good thing actually." Tyler chuckled. "Hey, Sammy. You play with your new tablet. Your dad and I are just going to talk for a bit okay? Then you can go with him to his big house."
"Okay." Sammy sat on the sofa and started watching some videos.
Tyler walked out to the balcony and Milo followed him out. He closed the door.
"Get the situation with your wife sorted out, but make sure the kid stays with you." Tyler commanded.
"Yes, Boss. Thank you."
"I should thank you. After all, because of Sammy, I can throw a favor card." Tyler smirked.
Milo was confused but his boss had always had a weird mind of his own. Tyler had never kept with one image. No one what his real personality was. And that was the hard part because no one can decide what Tyler was going to do next.
"And don"t take her to go live with you. Take her to that offside mansion we had as a safehouse. Your child is as important as you know, you understand?"
"Yes."
"And make sure she invites her savior to dinner sometime. Invite me too when the time comes."
"Ok."
Milo already knew that Lena Shen was the one who took Sammy to come to see Tyler. When Tyler first called him about her daughter, he was shocked. He thought that his daughter was safe with her mother, but he was wrong.
When he left Sammy with his mother, he was protecting them from his dark life. But ever since he had worked with Tyler Huang, his work was less dangerous. For sure, he can be the father that Sammy was meant to have.
He needed to find out for sure what happened between Sammy and his ex-wife.
"Did you find any information about the change of project leader for the partners.h.i.+p with the Li Group?" Tyler questioned.
"I only know that your father demanded and after he received a phone call. I cannot trace the call. Do you think your younger brother is attacking you for CEO?"
"Hmmm... I likely doubt it. My younger brother can only dream that someday he will be CEO of the Huang Family Companies. He has far much to learn before he can reach the top level and compete with others."
"Do you want me to continue the investigation?"
"No. It"s the perfect chance to let my younger brother fail and also hard the Li Group. Let them be. You just continue to be the good lawyer you are suppose to be. Luckily we still kept your middle name as Milo."
"I"ll make sure the fix the paperwork flawlessly."
"Yes." Tyler nodded.
They were done talking about business so they both walked back into the living room. Tyler sat down across from Sammy.
"Hey, you know who Lena is seeing?" Tyler asked.
"Older sister Lena?" Sammy tried to recall her conversation with Lena. "No. She did not have a picture of him, only that he was more handsome than you."
Tyler scoffed. "What kind of woman does not have a photo of her boyfriend. Obviously, she was just lying about having one."
"Well then. It was nice seeing you, Sammy. Make sure to text back to Lena that you are going home with your dad."
"Yes! Thanks for the tablet and finding my dad, Mr. Huang. When I grow up, I"ll be sure to be your wife."
"Sammy!" Milo scolded.
"What? Is it illegal to date my dad"s boss?"
Milo shook his head. What kind of teaching had his ex-wife taught their once sweet and cute daughter? "Sorry... we will be leaving now. And thanks again."
Milo and Sammy left Tyler"s suite. After they left, Tyler dropped his nice act and grabbed his secured phone and dialed.
"Yes, boss?" A girl"s voice answered.
"Milo is compromised." Tyler spoke.
"Would you like me to take him out?"
"No." Tyler took out Lena"s scented phonecard and looked at it. "I still need him. Make sure no one from the team approach him nor give him any a.s.signments without my approval. We need to make his life as normal as a lawyer"s life is supposed to be."
"Yes. Is that all f your instructions for today?"
"Yes... why? You have something to say?"
"The a.s.signment you gave me... when do you want to execute it?"
"Whenever you are ready. And you need to stop calling me your boss. I am not your boss."
"You"re right, Tyler. You are not my boss." The woman"s voice confirmed. "See you."
The call hung up and Tyler stretched out. He can feel that a storm was coming and he needed to make sure he was not going to flood out from it. This time, he needed to stay at the top.
