Chapter 17 - The save

"Valnor isn't a human being, or he has a bad condition or allergy" I stated

knock!

knock!!

The sound of someone knocking broke my thinking. Getting up, I quickly opened the door. It was a young woman barely twenty two, her beauty was still radiating and she looked quite traumatized

"Lord valnor would like you to see him" her voice sounded out of place

"okay, I'm coming soon"

"he doesn't like waiting, and also..... I have to come with you" she told me looking elsewhere

"well, he has to wait!" Williams came out from nowhere

"will...."

"Lee, hope you're carrying your bag because we're out of here!" he dragged a confused me out

"please, don't do this, my lord will kill me" the young woman cried

"what do you mean by that?" Williams asked trying to get information from the poor woman

"yes, what do you mean by that?" valnor's voice caused more tension, "where are you going to Lee?"

If something isn't said now, valnor would show his true character one way or the other

"Oh I'm glad you're here, I was about going to see you..... I was thinking of visiting an old friend here in London with my friend Williams, while she was thinking that I would just go without telling you, truly I understand her concept here" I spoke with confidence without any pause. As a detective, I've learned about mixing Truth with lies to make a perfect sentence, I never knew it would be useful until now

"Interesting" valnor approached the woman who was now consumed with fear

"we're going now to see him" Williams always makes his words straight and this isn't quite a good way of speaking to someone you suspect

"sure, but my butler will accompany you"

"no! thanks but this case is as different as chalk and cheese and I would like to do it privately" when I said the word privately, it arose valnor's curiosity

"if you say so, but you can leave anytime, I was just being concerned" he told me with a sincere smile....

LIAR!!!

I knew fully well he was trapping a dangerous anger, his face wasn't hiding it

"okay, we may be back" Williams said and I moved forward thinking about what the woman has said

I wasn't far but I heard what Valnor told Williams, it was clear.....

"I hate you!"
