CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO

It had been a week since the building exploding incident. It was announced in the news that there was a gas leakage, that is why there were only a few bodies found because the rest of them had run away. After that, Iris made two copies of the USB, she had the original one while one was given to Lucy and the other was given to Logan, which they had hidden someplace no one knew about. It was because even if someone were to find the USB, they would still have the copies.

The next task after this was to find Nick and to do that, they first needed to find out that how did Frederick came to know about Nick and the USB. Their suspicion was on obviously Duncan, but even then he must have shown Frederick some sort of proof for him to believe him.

Right now, Logan was sitting in a restaurant in casual clothing. He was scrolling down his phone while waiting for someone. This plan better work or else if they became suspicious of him, they will come after him.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Wilson."

Logan smiles upon seeing who comes and sits in front of him.

"Mr. Dick, how many times I have told you to call me Logan. Mr. Wilson feels old."

"You know how much I hate informality, that is why I insist if you allow me to keep calling you that."

"Well if you insist, then you may."

Dick then gets straight to business,

"What client do you have now?"

"I'm afraid I can't discuss the personal information of my client because of my contract but what I can tell you is that he needs help of your shipping company because of various government laws."

"What am I shipping?"

"Wine."

"Of which year?"

"1945."

"Is there only alcohol or perhaps...?"

He raised his brow, referring to illegal drugs because all of his clients do deal with illegal things.

"There might be a little surprise..."

"I see. Interesting...well..."

Dick was cut off by Frederick who had entered the restaurant. Seeing Dick, made him angry so he hissed,

"What are you doing here?"

"Does it matter? Why do you care?"

Dick respond without changing his blank facial expression. Seeing Frederick, made Logan smile in his mind, though he kept his expression as natural as possible.

"I wish to eat at this restaurant and I do not want to see your sight!"

Frederick, scoffed. Slamming his wooden cane on the floor.

"Maybe we should go somewhere else..."

Logan added

"No. We came here first. If anyone should leave it has to be this disgraceful man, right here."

Dick scrunched up his face, glaring down at the short man

"Logan! I warn you, boy. Don't do business with this guy right here or else he will end up stealing all your clients and ruining your business."

Frederick advised Logan, who acted confused

"I did not steal your clients. They came to me after you went bankrupt due to your own problems. You can't tell Mr. Wilson what to do because he is a gentleman who can make his own decisions, unlike you. For the record, if you do not wish to eat in this restaurant while I am here then I suggest you order takeout and leave!"

Dick had lost his cool despite his cold demeanour.

"You!"

Frederick sneered, moving closer to Dick. He was standing on his toes to meet the tall guy's gaze to glare at him.

"Umm...don't fight. We were already done here. Mr. Dick, I'll send you all the details later on and ask the client if I should finish the deal. Let's go."

Logan got between them, moving Dick back. Both of their guards were close to pointing their guns at each other.

"Hmm...Fine. I'm only leaving because staying here with this man any more is a disgrace. I shall take my leave now. Please, do send all the details later on."

Dick composes himself and leaves, his guards following him.

"That damn snake! I hate that guy so much! I hope he rots in hell because I know he is the one who attacked my warehouse!"

Frederick ranted, his face was slowly turning red.

"What?"

Logan asked, Frederick did not know that Logan was behind it and he intended to keep it that way.

"...Nevermind. It's nothing." He replied after realising what he said out loud. He then continues,

"He is bad news. Don't deal with him anymore."

"I understand but it was my client's wish and I can't do anything about that."

Logan shrugs.

"I see, then your clients are fools."

Frederick goes to sit at his usual table. He would often come to this restaurant to eat their special steaks.

"Join me."

He looked at Logan who was almost at the door about to leave. Logan turns around and shakes his head,

"I have got stuff to do. Need to get back to my client. Thank you for the offer."

With that, he leaves.

"Logan must be coming back any moment now."

Luke looked at the clock. They were all at their base.

"This a really brilliant plan, making Dick and Baldy fight with each other."

Lucy smirked,

"Do you think they might have started firing at each other?"

Alex asked, Iris and everyone had filled the rest of them on the details although the four of them told them about why they hate The Mercurial.

"Who knows. I hope Logan doesn't get stuck in between. His left hand hasn't healed yet."

Iris bit her lip in worry.

"What I like is the fact that due to Logan destroying those cameras at the warehouse will make baldy think that Dick was behind it since it's Dick's signature move. He always destroys all the cameras wherever he attacks."

Max explained.

"But I still don't get one thing. How does doing all this will help us find Iris's dad?"

Ella inquired. She got hyped up with everyone about it because of the moment but she couldn't help feeling confused.

"It's because if we make them fight, we will then use the USB to give some dirt on Dick to baldy in return for information. Isn't that right, Iris?"

Amelia retorted, pushing her glasses up

"Yup."

Iris nods. At that moment, Logan comes back. Everyone gets up to hear what happened which he tells. They all listened like they were hearing a story at bed time.

"Now, on to phase two."

Iris said, they then turned towards Henry who smirks,

"Already on it."
