Chapter 100

The ladies turned to her with surprise in their eyes.

Yeah, they might be divorced, but a lot of people knew it was Kage she was pregnant for. Plus, Sylvie knew the

manager. He was an acquaintance of Kage, and Kage was one of the major shareholders in the company. The

manager's face paled. "Uh...| don't think there'll be any need for that, Ms. Sylvie. We could-" Astrid's nose flared.

"Who the hell is her husband and who do you need to-"

"Kage Hawkins," Cindy interrupted with a smug smile. "The nsounds familiar?"

Astrid's friends gasped, unable to hide their surprise. The phones in their hands were from Fluxpoint.

Astrid may have not been in the country, but she sure knew the name. Everyone in the business world knew who

Kage Hawkins was.

"If I were you," Cindy lowered her voice to a conspirational whisper. "I'd pray he doesn't find out you called his

wife names."

This time, it was Sylvie's turn to look pompous. She turned to the cleaner. "Take care of this and

go

back to work."

"Yes, ma'am. Thank you so much! Thank you!" She bowed in gratitude and ran off.

Astrid's face tightened with rage. She glared hard at Sylvie who held her gaze for a long tbefore walking

away with Cindy.

Later in the day, Sylvie met up with the person that had called her in Silk and Satchel and received the ‘item’. It

was a few strands of hair packaged in a small nylon. Lincoln's hair. "What do you need it for, anyway?" The guy

asked after handing it to her.

She glanced at him before fixing it into her purse. "Something personal."

She paid him. After him. After which, he left her car.

Sylvie hoped she wouldn't get caught. She'd already gotten Cora's hair when she 'visited' them for the second

tin school, but she couldn't get close enough to Lincoln and had to get someone else to do it for her. The

only thing left left for her to do was conduct a DNA on both hairs and see if they would be a match. Her guts told

her to conduct the DNA on them. The result would determine her next step of action. With that, she headed for

the hospital.

The following night, Kage insisted they ate out for dinner. Well, Sylvie had been having a hard tchosing what

to eat. So, she didn't argue when he brought the suggestion.

The restaurant had a wide variety of food to choose from. Sylvie ate to her fill, and by the tthey were done,

she wished they were hso she could get right into sleep. "Do | need to carry you?" Kage teased as to pass

out."

they walked out of the VIP room, his hand holding hers. "You look like you're about

"Well, | might pass out. But | might pass out even faster if you have to carry me." She rolled her eyes with a

yawn.

Kage laughed.

Walking out of the building, they were headed to their car when they ran into Lancelot.

He'd

Sylvie's pulse quickened as soon as she saw him. What in God's nwas he doing there?

"Hey, bro!" Lancelot pulled away from the car, wearing his usual broad smile. "Wow. What a coincidence we

meet here."

Kage and Sylvie slowed down, although a cold look had crept into Kage's face.

"How's it going? You know, | heard what happened and I've been meaning to-"

"Save it it and just get out of

Kage looked at him. As much as he had been interested in the conversation, ensuring Sylvie was fine was more

important. "Con," he cooed, leading her to the car.

As soon as they were home, she excused herself to the bathroom claiming she needed to take a hot shower.

The fear, pain and tears she'd been masking on her way hwith Kage cout all at once in heavy currents.

Her body shook as she wept bitterly. It was getting real.

She had thought she was ready for the worst, but with Lancelot being so close to revealing the truth tonight, she

realized she's been wrong.

She wasn't ready for it. She wasn't ready to lose Kage. The son of a b*+*+:*h brought her fear right to her face,

reminding her that he held the cards. How could he do this to her?

She spent a long tin the bathroom which served as her sanctuary for the meantime. Kage, worried from how

long she was taking, had to knock and only then did she round up. "Are you sure | shouldn't call Meredith?" He

asked as she dressed up in the room.

He'd suggested it during the ride home.

"Nah, I'm fine- trust me. | just need to rest, and I'll be fine, Kage. It probably has to do with the food." She forced

her lips to stretch in a smile, but even then, her eyes looked so sad they troubled Kage. "Maybe the food was

bad," he mumbled thoughtfully, leaning against the table. "Maybe | should put a call through to the manager

and-"

"It isn't the food."

"Because if they have something to do with this, I'm shutting down the place, Sylvie!"

Standing in front of the mirror, she gave him a long stare, her eyes growing even sadder.

How much he loved her. But soon, that love might bechate and she'd never get him back.

In the morning, they headed to the hospital where Meredith did a thorough checkup on her as requested by

Kage. She reported that everything was fine and there was no cause for concern.

Despite that, Kage had wanted to stay hwith her, but Sylvie didn't let him. After much arguments, she won

and he headed to the office after dropping her off at home.

As she walked into the living room, she checked her email and noticed she had one unread one. It turned out to

be a recording form a new email, and though she was a little skeptical, she played it.

Upon opening it, her phone nearly slipped from her hand. It was a recording of her conversation with Lancelot

from six days ago when she'd visited him at the hotel. The son of a b****h recorded her!?

It was Lancelot. She couldn't bring herself to receive the call until he called for the second time.

"Have you rested enough?" His voice filled her ears. "And | hope you've gotten my little present. Do you like it,

Sylvie?"

Fear had its icy fingers wrapped around her throat. She couldn't breath, couldn't utter a response.

He brought out his phone and tried calling her again, but she still wasn't reachable. For God's sake, he hated

when he had to worry about her whereabouts. It was past seven already.

He turned on the tracking device, but much to his surprise, her phone wasn't trackable. That could only happen

if her device wasn't on.

His anxiety peaked to a whole new level. Her phone was switched off? Where the hell was she!?

Kage called everyone related to Sylvie, but none of them knew where she was. By the tthe clock was

approaching nine, he had already lost his mind.

He involved the police. Of course, a person had to be missing for twenty-four hours before a report should be

made, but they made an exception for Kage.

Sylvie would never stay out for so long and be unreachable. Something was wrong-Kage could feel it deep in his

bones. And the realization triggered a queasy feeling deep in his gut. 4/4
