Chapter 5 - The motel

She exclaims when she remembers the lady whom she just met a while ago. She was Coppers sister. She was the gentle and caring daughter amongst the two boys Edward the billionaire gave birth to. When the lady appears on google, her pictures were nowhere in her bio. The least that could be found was that of the whole family picture.

That night, after Michelle's meeting with Caro. Cooper went over to the motel in his black jeep. The car ran for hours until it stopped in front of the busy motel. From the outside, drunkards, business men, ladies dressed half naked. Walked in and out of the building. Copper was stressed from his shoots and interviews he had with the police about his girlfriends death. He wanted to be somewhere no one would bother him. He came out of the jeep when the butler in black suit ran over to the door and pulling it.

When his whole body appeared, his butler and the bodyguards behind him bent their heads to appraise his appearance. He walks out in his black hoodies that covered his face halfway. He had mask to his face as his whole attire looked causal with the canvas.

After standing for hours, staring a the motel label. He walks directly inside the motel. His two bodyguards kept covering him until he got to the entrance. He looked to his right and noticed that no one here could know that he was a celebrity. The light in the bar inside the motel, suddenly turned dim. He walks to a chair and pulled off his mask and suffocated it into his pocket.

"One shot please." He ordered with his hands discerning the number he wanted. The bartender smiled at him, before she could get hold of one bottle. When she brought it to his front, she dropped a paper and pen beside him.

"Please am your fan, can you sign this for me? I really need it." She smiled and Coppers butler came closer, trying to pull the paper away. He knew very well how his boss was going to be mad at him, if he didn't get the lady at of his sight. As he tried pulling the paper, Copper stopped him, with his hands on the paper.

He smiles at the butler who became perplexed at his expression. What has come on his master? He assumed to himself.

"If I sign this, don't let anyone else know. Or else I'll kill you." He said with a cold voice and the lady trembles in fear, holding the paper she collects for copper. Her eyes looking at Coppers cold and direct fury. She shakes.

"Am just joking." Copper broke his cold face and smiled at her. She chuckles when she saw his expression and liked him even more. How he acted like a real actor, made her like him more. He was very handsome to be only an actor. He was supposed to be someone's love and not only crush; her minds wonders as she pulls the paper away and walks to attend to the rest customers.

"Sir, a call for you." The butler pulls the phone from his ear after receiving a call from an unknown individual. He knew that calls were a bad idea at the moment but it was very important if he received the call. Earlier he had ensured that if the call came through, that it was to get to him right away. At the moment. His master didn't want calls and wanted to be alone but he just interrupted the peace and silent he was about to cherish.

Copper looks at the man, cold, before collecting the phone from his hands. He places it to his ear and listens to who wanted to speak with him. He waited for the persons response from the other side as he like to act that way.

"Mr copper." The voice spoke and it was very eloquent. His eyes opens a bit from his Chinese shaped eye. It gave a familiar shrink in brows.

"Alrando. Why did you call. Is the deal done?" He asked with his hard muscular voice, intimidating Alrando on the other end.

"So… sorry for calling you at the moment. It's just urgent I called. The girl has not agreed to the proposal you made." Alrando said with a shaking voice.

"And you called me? You must not value you life very much." Coppers tone changed drastically.
