GUN BLAZING

Ace walked into the house, and discovered that everything was right in place.

Landon had made sure everywhere was sparkling, and he was grateful for that.

He went into each of the rooms, just to ensure that there wasn't anything important missing.

Satisfied with the ambience, he walked into the kitchen next.

He was expecting just two staff, because the rest had been dismissed to preserve his anonymity.

"Sir Ace," one of the longest working staff in the villa called, with a huge smile on his face.

"Martin, I'm glad you're here," he replied.

"And I'm glad you're alive. Oh when Landon told us what happened, I couldn't stop thinking God," Renee, his wife added, tapping his back soothingly.

He smiled at both of them. They never made use of the villa that often, but those two were some of his dearest staff.

"Thank you for—" his phone rang, interrupting his gratitude speech.

He excused himself, and returned to the living room.
