Chapter 23 - Just a rumor part 1
Nicholas POV…
After the news, everyone was going crazy. Some of them questioned themselves and others panicking. The question they keep asking was “is the actual ambassador really the one he is pretending to be, or was there an unknown between us all along”
And between them was Vicxa.
“I believe you heard of the rumor, right?“ She asked me
“Yes but it's like you said it's a rumor, and a rumor is not always true” I responded, trying to calm her down
“Let's hope not cause obviously we never met him till now so no one really know if it's him behind that mask or someone else…if it's someone else, it's not going to end well, believe me”
“how can it be someone else when we heard his voice, and when Grayden approved that it's him, what kind of witchcraft that would be?“ I said, trying to be sarcastic
“With Grayden, you can expect anything you know that better than me and with his son, may I remind you that he created the most successful game ever made so it can seem like a game to him”
“Yes, I agree with all you just said, but I believe in Brayden more than anything “ I stated
“Okay, but you put your trust on the wrong person once again and I'm going to prove that to you…when I thought you've learned your lesson” she shake her head, then she started to heading toward the ambassador room with the other CIA agents following her.
“where are you going?“ I asked
“My job, Nic, there's an imposter in here that we have to unmask, we have to do this now” she stated
So I run and stand before them, trying to stop them from entering the ambassador's room.
“I can't let you do that, vic”
“Why are you protecting him. You just met him” she screamed
“He's not the one I'm trying to protect Vic. It's you. Cause this room is contaminated” is stated
“Then you didn't give me a choice” she said.
What is she even mean by that.
Then she turned to the other agent and say “ Grab him”
Then they grabbed me.
“I'm going to show you that there is no virus and no Brayden… that it's just a game” she added
And suddenly, Grayden appears.
“What the hell is going on here?“ He asked. Confused as hell.
“Mr. Pierce, stand back, or else you are going to be the next”
He scoff
“Aren't I already the next. In a matter of fact I am the first, it's all happening because of me…he shouldn't be there In the first place, his girlfriend Is being held by God knows who and he is still here. It's all my fault, like every single one of you is saying in your head right now…" Explained Grayden
''it's all his fault. He is the one who should be arrested." Some of you even think that I am Black face, aren't you?…I get that you have lost trust in me but not him, so yes, you should grab me in his place” continued Grayden.
Vicxa didn't even think twice. She ordered them “grab him”
The next thing I know is them keep on going towards the ambassador's door.
“What are you guys waiting for, the ambassadors' permission? He ain't shit right now, I am, so now open that fucking door” she yelled
And then they knock the damn door down and when they get in what they saw will left them speechless. She was the first one to get in by the way and the first one to scream.
“Ahhh” then Brayden follows “ahhh” they screamed
While she was pointing the gun at Brayden and then she suddenly she put the gun down.
“Everyone back off now, we're leaving.”
And they did as she commanded them to.
“I'm so sorry, Mr. The ambassador, my sincere apologies,”
Then she headed outside.
“I want someone to fix that damn door now,” she exclaimed
She looked at us, and she say “let them go, I can confirm it was just a rumor, nothing true,”
And they let us go.
I ran after her to ask her “what did you see in there?“
“MR. Pierce simply him without the mask,”
Then I grabbed her by her arm, trying to stop her from going away without a legit answer
“I know when you are lying, girl, you know that, right?“
She looks at my hand on her, and she looks at me
“what ate you doing?“
She made me let go of her, she looked around then it's was her turn to grab me
“Now come here,”
The next thing I knew, we were in an empty room. And we locked the door right after we got in.
“Listen, what I am going to tell you going to stay between us you hear,” she whispered
“Promise,”
“You won't believe what I saw,”
“What is it?“ I quickly replied cause I was so impatient
“The ambassador was totally naked, and his tree branch started swaying!!” she exclaimed
“What?“
“Fuck, his penis…it was huge. Now I know that it's not only for his angel face every girl is after him”
When I finally got what she was talking about, I burst out of laugh.
“Stop, it's not funny, I can get fired or worse, exiled for this”
And I was still laughing, I couldn't stop sorry.
“That's it, I'm out of here”
She was heading towards the door, and then she suddenly stopped and turned towards me and said
“if you tell that to a soul, you are dead you heard? And you know that I am not fucking joking”
“Now you see I perfectly learned my lesson and we we'll prove that Grayden was framed wheter they like it or not.” I exclaimed
She heard that she smirked and keep going on her way.
Elliot POV…
I drove her in a expensive clothes shop, one that just opened.
When we get inside even at the door i feel like she was in love with everything she saw, cause why not, everything in here is stylish.
arriving in the middle her eyes dropped on a particular one, it was brown good looking royalty dress she stop by and started admiring it.
A few minutes later, she started picking up what she wanted and giving them to me. When my arm finally got tired, I called one of the store's security and gave them to him, and then I called another one, making him sign to follow her.
Later one when we were done and we were about to get in the car, I stopped her
“Wait…”
After that, she abruptly stopped, and I drew nearer to her until she thought I was going to kiss her. She leant back against the car, but there was nothing she could do about it at the time, so she closed her eyes. The next thing she knew, I had grabbed the bag she was holding and opened the door for her.
“Now you can carry on,”
She first appeared a little upset, and then she immediately began to smile.
I took over the wheel as soon as we were in the car. In the middle of the street, I opened the radio and started blasting music.
POV Darcy
I believe that since I was with someone who had less toxic surroundings, I should not have to be as afraid of what might happen. Instead, I should let go of all negative thoughts and everything that was preventing me from moving forward, then I should gently lean back on the car seat and open the window.
I sensed that he was evaluating me, but since I was already at ease, I did not change a thing.
