The Devil Charming's
The Part 28
Edward was still standing stiffly in place letting the Lady who hugged him with a sobbing. Edward felt tightness in his chest since he saw two picture frames, each of which is the Kostov family and the Jarvis family. If it is true what the Lady says means that Vladmir Jarvis is her father. And Dmitry is his wife's brother.
Who is Golden Rose?
Edward begins to doubt that the Golden Rose clan is the cause of this chaos.
“Can you explain correctly?”
Lady took off her embrace and pulled her hair until she was dyed with the long brownish-black hair she had hidden behind her fake hair. Edward who witnessed it just put on a flat face even though in his heart he was quite amazed Lady managed to fool him very neatly. “Ask what you want to ask, brother. I'll answer everything,” Lady said taking a seat on the sofa while Edward was still standing in front of her.
“You don’t know me.”
Lady shook her head slowly. “I know you well. Edward Miller, baby boy found by Franklyn's daughter on a park bench.”
Lady smiled faintly then flicked her finger until a wide transparent screen appeared in front of them before continuing her speech.
“I can see you and watch you every day. I also know you're trying to trick me with that mask you're wearing because you think I'm one of the members of the Golden Rose clan, don't you?”
Seeing Edward who just silently looked at him Lady sighed then walked closer to the transparent screen and then typed some coding there until a picture appeared of a mansion, apartment, office and even Edward headquarters. Edward rounded his eyes and approached Lady who was still moving her fingers to enter some ciphers there.
“Since when did you do this?” Edward asked with a sharp look.
Somehow he did not feel like being watched quietly like this even though the woman in front of him claimed that they were brothers.
“Since Mr. Kostov told me everything. Do you know, dad was killed a few weeks ago and I didn't manage to save him because I was too focused on your wife.”
“What do you mean? Daddy's? My wife?”
Lady sighed softly then looked at Edward for a moment. “Our father is Vladmir Jarvis, the mobster who gave you a way to find the golden rose. Ever since then, the fucking mobsters who wanted you and Lizbeth hunted dad down and killed him. At that time I was trying to break the chip code embedded in Lizbeth's body, preventing those who managed to steal the master chip from being able to find out your location.”
Edward recalled that Valdmir had contacted him a long time before he married Lizbeth, and since then Vladmir has not contacted him.
Edward closed his eyes for a moment “Who do you mean mafia jerk?” “You know the answer.”
“Gustavo?”
Lady nodded. “Year of the year we tried to protect
the two of you took their attention to chase us. We even told someone to play the figure of Lizbeth, the last princess of the Golden rose clan but unfortunately she also betrayed.”
“You? Anyone?” Edward asked in full.
“I, and the Kostov family. Not even Dad knew I was alive. Long story. You want to listen to it now or—” “Tell me everything now,” cut Edward with his heavy voice and then take off his disguise mask to reveal a beautiful real face in front of Lady. “Before you should know that we have the same mark,” Lady tied her hair showing the nape that there is a mark there. Exactly the same mark Edward had.
It made Edward smile that was almost invisible. It was true that the Lady was his sister.
“One more thing, my name is Alexa and only you and the Kostov family know this.”
Edward listened to her in silence. That guy really doesn't talk much differently when he's with Lizbeth. Oh—Edward misses his wife very much. The man sits in front of Alexa and keeps his Deagle back behind his black suit.
“Then, the Kostov family and the Jarvis family were best friends. They help each other and look after each other, even planning an arranged marriage between their children,” said Alexa who began to tell stories. “Until the betrayal occurs. Where there are parties who pitted the two families.”
“What do you mean Gustavo?” Ask Edward.
“Wife.” Alexa glanced at Edward for a glance before taking out her pack of cigarettes picking it up one stick and igniting it, blowing the nicotine smoke away freely.
“Gustavo's wife is Kostov's great mistress, which means she is Lizbeth's biological mother as well as Dmitry,”.
Edward could not hide his surprise. This was true beyond her expectations. All this time his enemy was very close even reality for the sake of reality no one had ever crossed his mind.
“The mother was the savior of the three poor children when the split into two big clans occurred, only the only mother who was not affected by the sheepfight. I managed to hide you by putting baby Lizbeth in front of the house of one of the FBI agents, put Dmitry in front of the house of one of the successful businessmen of the Jhonson family and put yourself on a park bench because I don't have much time to leave you in a safer place.”
“And how about you?”
“So since then Mr Kostov took care of you?”
“That's exactly because my father also thought I didn't survive, and when I was twenty years old, Mr. Kostov died getting shot for protecting me from a fucking sniper who was definitely Gustavo's man,” replied Alexa.
Edward pressed his throbbing temples all of this truth making him think hard, making him have to start from the beginning of his plan to step up. Edward looked up and looked back at Alexa. A woman who seems to have a resemblance to him.
“How about the chip planted on Lizbeth's body, do you also know if Lizbeth lost her memory?”
“Yes, that's one of the effects of that chip. Because Mr. Kostov used to think that everything would be fine because Lizbeth would only lose his memory with others, not with his family. Which means Lizbeth will only remember anyone he has ever met and still have blood ties.”
Alexa stood up and walked towards one corner of the room. There is a bookcase that turns out to be a door to the basement. Alexa tells Edward to follow her. With a calm step Edward followed Alexa. Some of the men who had been with them remained in the room to keep watch.
Edward looked around, though, it turns out that his sister is also a reliable hacker who may be much more genius than himself in addition Edward also remembered that Alexa is very skilled in playing weapons both hand guns and long-barreled weapons where p that makes Alexa a hit man. Alexa opens a laptop that is directly approached by
Edward. The thin screen shows a row of coding that makes Edward frown because he never found the type of coding like that.
“You made it?” Ask Edward.
“Not. I'm just perfecting it, Mr. Kostov made it. Here there is a password to protect the chip inside the body Lizbeth controlled by the parent chip. And unfortunately, Gustavo managed to take the parent chip,” growled Alexa. “I'm sure you already know about the DNA of the system,” continued Alexa “Not much. I didn't even manage to crack the password on that chip.”
“Actually the chip was used to hide the tattoo on Lizbeth's body. Because the tattoo is a symbol of a daughter of the Golden rose clan, the symbol that shows that she is the only key to get the entire wealth of the Kostov family, the next holder of power.”
Alexa kicked the desk hard after seeing that she had not managed to access anything even she could not use her password to open the data on her laptop.
“Damn! Fucking mafia!!! They messed it all up!!” Edward pulls out Alexa's laptop, trying to solve the mess with a little fuss hoping he can fix it right now.
“How important is the data in here?”
“Very important because it concerns the parent and automatic chip it also concerns the life of Lizbeth.”
“F*ck!!!!” Edward is still trying to focus on the laptop in front of him.
“Can you explain a little bit about the DNA of that damn system?! Have they gone mad by implanting that stupid chip in the body of a baby?”
“DNA system can only be opened with a blood sample Lizbeth also retinal scan. There is all the data about the assets of the Kostov family that are targeted by many large mafia. Mr. Kostov deliberately planted the chips to protect his daughter. And one thing you should know, that only Lizbeth has that tattoo.”
Edward looked quickly. “Only Lizbeth? What about the other golden rose breeds?”
Alexa nodded slowly. “Tuan Kostov ordered all his men to tattoo rose on their bodies after he learned that his daughter was still alive. It aims to protect Lizbeth.”
THE WARNING!
The sound of a loud warning from the laptop that was being reviewed by Edward made Alexa immediately pay attention to the object, there was a flashing red dot he accompanied the sound of a warning that continues to echo. Alexa could see Edward's expression change becoming more and more furious even as the sturdy jaw was hardened with a sharp look.
“Sial!! They tried to hack into the security system of the headquarters where Lizbeth was. Looks like they've started to get suspicious about the whereabouts of Lizbeth.”
Alexa's emotions immediately ignited the woman grabbed her phone and then called the number of someone who immediately answered her call quickly.
“Whatever happens, divert the attention of Gustavo's men from Estebat headquarters! Screw up their security systems and get your men ready!” Alexa's orders made Edward shake his head. It turns out that his nature is not much different from his sister.
Edward breathed a sigh of relief after successfully repairing the security system at his headquarters, he hoped that Dmitry and Victor could take good care of his wife. It is very unlikely that Edward contacted his wife through a mobile phone because it does not rule out the possibility of the hackers owned by Gustavo managed to find out their whereabouts.
“How many men can you count on?” Edward asked Alexa who had a slanted smile.
“As much as you want.”
Edward grinned satisfied at Alexa's answer. “Good.we will move quickly to attack them, make sure you will not disappoint me, little brother.”
Alexa widened her smile then hugged Edward tightly. “I'll stay with you no matter what.”
Edward stroked Alexa's head gently, he remembered Nath, the brother with no blood ties to him that always showed a spoiled nature when with him.
