Chapter 175 - Attack Part 1
Andromeda jot down the places that they are operating using the clone phone of Kathleen. Her cousin is stupid and didn\'t even know that her phone is cloned. But anyway, she cared no less about her stupidity. What she cared about where they are operating.
She reached her earpiece and connect it to her phone. She active her personal AI that her husband settled for her.
"Call Shadow." She said in her deep and dangerous voice.
"Calling Shadow." The AI responded. It rang a few times and Andel answered it.
"Yes?" He murmured in a deep voice. She heard Ellen\'s whispering voice in the background. Isn\'t he supposed to work today? "It won\'t take long, okay? I\'ll cook your favorite after this."
She could only smile. What can she say? She was almost the same as Ellen when it comes to her husband. She glanced at the calendar and it\'s already Saturday. Sighed. She cleared her throat and focused on Andel.
"Hey, I--I knew places for their operation. I shuffled a few people and for our operation to be steady, I make sure that this time we are going to catch them."
"Okay, I\'ll work on it. Give me details and I\'ll command."
"Okay. In Arca North, they have this warehouse abandoned. They are going to meet there to start their transactions. I already sent someone to follow them."
"Following would be a bad idea," Andel told.
"Not at all." She smirked. "It wasn\'t that freeway there. My man wouldn\'t follow them for long." Andromeda smirked.
"Okay. I think I am getting it."
"Of course," Andy leaned on her swivel chair. "I will switch people from time to time as long as the first person put a magnetic tracker on their car. It will be perfect."
"Wow, you are getting more and more like a criminal mastermind."
"Why not?" She asked. "We are dealing with criminals after all."
After Andy disseminate everything to her people. She just sat there and glanced at the clock. She should be home but she just realized that it\'s Saturday and her husband is with his friends. She let him have his day but he kept on texting her. Her friend\'s wives or girlfriends are there. Then she thought of Allona. Her eyes darken and last night\'s moment flashes on her mind.
She gathered her things and placed them all in her backpack. Then she went to the dresser and wiped her face with the toner. Then she put cream and a little powder then she put a daring red lipstick.
She stepped out and one of her assistants bow to her.
"You are now dismissed. Check everything around." She said and he made sure that her office is a lock.

Zach squinted his eyes up the sky and he pulled his black shades to cover his eyes. He stopped when Allona came to him, looking like a lost woman. If he knew her as his friend he would comfort her, but Allona killed his baby and nearly killed Andy after the miscarriage.
She\'s wearing a scarf around her face and big shades. She pulled it out and she got bruises and her cheek is swollen from a hit.
"Are you okay?" He asked.
"Last night." She said. "I thought we are meeting, but it\'s your wife." She showed him the messages and, indeed, he didn\'t text her and Andromeda might\'ve texted her. "She slapped me. She didn\'t just slap me, she even hit me more." Tears started streaming down her face.
Zach just stared at her blankly. She doesn\'t deserve to be slapped. She deserved more than a slap.
"What\'s wrong?" Alessandro asked and looked at Allona. "Who did this to you?" He asked, but Allona only started at Zach.
"I am trying," Allona muttered. "Your wife is crazy. She intentionally killed your baby. She--She\'s even visiting--" before she blurted about Andy visiting a doctor for her shots, Andromeda stepped it and get in between them and kissed Zach.
"You drive so fast," he muttered and kissed Andromeda\'s forehead.
"Wait." Alessandro raised his hand. "You mean, Andy hit you?" Alessandro glanced at Andy.
Andy looked at Allona and then to Alessandro.
"Yes, I slapped her last night." She said bluntly. "What should I do then, when she\'s trying to ruin my marriage to my husband?" She sighed. "Allona, I know that you are crazy about my husband, but please, I just slapped you and your other bruises are your faults. Why would you hit a woman with your shoe and even got an urge to have a catfight with her." She even rises her phone and showed the footage.
She already sent it to all of her friends after a swift click. Zach took Andy\'s arm and pulled her.
"That\'s enough, Andromeda." He told. Andy gritted her teeth and wanted to do more to Allona. "I\'m sorry," Zach muttered to her and kissed her head. "I already blocked her."
Her heart clenches. Maybe Zach didn\'t want any more drama so he is making her retreat. Then, she will retreat but still, she wins. Zach took her bag and face Alessandro.
"My wife is a little bit tired." He said and take her away.
They reached their cottage and Zach place the bag over the table. Then he faced her. Andromeda crossed her arms and turned back from him.
"I didn\'t mean to entertain her. Just tell me if you wanted me to get rid of her completely. I\'ll talk to her not to bother us anymore."
"That won\'t work either." She faced him. "Zach, I know that you trust me more than anyone. Trust me again. I love you. It\'s true and I never lie to my feelings."
"I know." He reached her face and kissed her temple. "I know… don\'t worry okay? I\'m going to fix this."
"Okay. I\'ll do my work first then after this, I will join you outside."
"Then, I\'ll relax here first." He kissed her more.
Andromeda sat down on her chair and stretched her arms and back.

Andel cooked the food first for his lover and let her clean the house while he started working. He studied from their satellite about the possible routes. His stomach gets excited when he saw the blinking, which means that their operation is ongoing. Now, he won\'t let this slid off from his fingertips.
"Tea?" Ellen asked and checked his back if it\'s wet with sweats.
"Yes please, baby."
He\'s been sitting there and he clicked the enter button on the keyboard.
"Attack."
