Chapter 542: Is it about the text

"I don’t think that would happen any time soon" Gavin confidently stated making Tristan arch his brow.

"And how are you so confident?" Tristan asked.

"I don’t think Martin would try to expose himself just like that, not now that he knows Jenny and I are together," Gavin said.

"But you can’t trust the people he is working for. Don’t you already know how dangerous they are?" Tristan reminded.

Gavin fell silent for a moment and bobbed his head in understanding.

"That’s why I want your men to monitor Jenny. I won’t be able to be with her all the time, so I request you to help me with this" Gavin requested.

"Okay, I will ask my men to protect Jenny, but you can’t let Martin roam freely for too long. We need to catch him to find the man behind all of this" Tristan pointed.

"Don’t worry brother, I am already on it. Martin will soon be under our captive" Gavin assured and soon left the study, while Tristan remained seated on the couch.

His eyes glanced at the cell phone resting on the table with his fingers patiently tapping on the armrest.

Tristan was waiting for his investigator to confirm his doubts regarding the message he got from an unknown number.

A few minutes passed and the phone suddenly rang with Tristan’s fingers stopping midway.

Darting his eyes towards the phone, Tristan answers the call.

"Did you find the person behind the message" Tristan spoke.

"Yes boss, the number belongs to a man named Eric Wilson. He is a driver by profession who likes touring people in the country P"

Tristan’s brows knitted hearing the details. For a moment he felt silent wondering why would someone from Country P try to contact him, but then something struck his mind and Tristan realized it was the same place where Richard went for his holidays.

"I want more details about him as quickly as possible. Find whom he toured for the last week and whom he met during that time. Find out about his family and relatives, find everything, and update me" Tristan instructed and hung the call.

Something was not right and Tristan could feel it.

The message had already caught his attention suspiciously but

’Who was the one to text Ashley?’

Tristan started racking his brain trying to connect the dots when a knock on the door but a brakes in his thoughts.

"Aren’t you coming to the room?" A familiar voice made Tristan look towards the person and the coldness in his eyes disappeared instantly.

The thoughts clouding his mind vanished and he shook his head before getting up from his seat.

"No, I was returning to the room," Tristan said with a smile before walking towards his wife.

After Tristan and Gavin excused themselves to study, Ashley patiently waited for Tristan’s arrival. Something about the change in his expressions earlier caught her attention and she couldn’t find herself at ease.

So when she saw Gavin leave the study, she decided to go and check on Tristan by herself.

"Are you stressed over the message you received?" Ashley asked remembering how his mood changed right after reading the text. So when he left right after they received a confirming message from Richard’s end, Ashley then decided to talk later about it.

Tristan pulled Ashley inside the study and closed the door behind her. He was contemplating whether he should tell Ashley about the person or not, as he still had no concrete proof to confirm that Richard was truly in danger.

So he decided to wait for a confirmation before breaking the news.

Holding her hands into his Tristan sighed, "Don’t you find it suspicious, I mean Uncle just texted you right after we received that anonymous text"

Ashley frowned hearing his words. Tristan sounded a little doubtful about the entire event. Yes even she was scared when Richard refused to answer her calls earlier but when he confirmed that his flight got delayed, she was back to being content.

However now when Tristan brought up this topic Ashley had no words in response.

Tristan noticed the contemplation on her face after he said those words and realized they ended up scaring her.

"Okay let’s not worry about it for now and wait for Uncle to return" Tristan changed the topic while caressing her arm.

Tristan hated seeing Ashley distressed so he decided to let this topic slide for a while.

Ashley bobbed her head in agreement and soon they left the study and returned to their room.

Meanwhile, somewhere inside the private plane, Richard was being deported back to Country S along with the kidnappers.

Morning came and Bianca woke up next to Gabriel. After confessing their love she came to see the different side of Riel that caught her off guard.

Never did she think of him being so clingy that he hardly left her side and had been gluing to her like a bee.

Turning around Bianca faced the man sleeping next to her and smiled.

"I can’t believe this handsome-looking man is my boyfriend," Bianca said while tracing the contour of Riel’s face.

His pointed nose, sharp jawline, and thin lips made her go crazy over his beauty. Running her finger over his thick brows Bianca admired his long lashes.

"He has a face that can even shame Adonis" Bianca was swayed by how beautiful Riel was. No doubt he is a model and actor by profession knowing how many girls went crazy over his charm.

As she kept admiring the man before her, Gabriel slowly opened his eyes.

"Ah!" Bianca gasped and quickly covered her mouth in shock.

Gabriel smiled watching her flustered face as he propped up with his head resting on his palm.

"Keep going. I love the way you are flattering me" Gabriel grinned embarrassing the hell out of Bianca.

All this while she assumed him to be sleeping, however, it turned out that Gabriel was already awake and was listening to her.

Unable to stand his mischievous grin Bianca quickly hid her face by pulling over the duvet.
