A few minutes after Ava and Kerberos left, three men walked inside the garden.
"The smell of death is heavy in this area particularly." Alvin said looking around.
"The men are unconscious only the boss was killed." Seth said. "It can't be only him that was killed, right?"
"You are right, come check this out." Gavriel and Seth walked to where Alvin was standing. "There are burn marks freshly imprinted and the smell is faint but it smells like hell and brimstones. " Alvin said as he bend down and touch the burnt place.
"Smells like hell and brimstones? It sounds like the guardian beast of hell but I doubt it... Kerberos..." Seth trailed off as he look at Alvin and his boss who was quiet. "But how is that possible. I thought he disappeared for centuries. "He asked in uncertainty.
"Yes he did but I think someone found him." Alvin said while looking around to see if he will more clues on the mysterious appearance of hell's guardian.
"The dog wasn't the only one here." Gavriel finally spoke causing Alvin and Seth to look at him.
"What do you mean. " Alvin asked.
"A grim reaper was also here. This dead body," He pointed at a puddle of water that was originally John's body. " A frightened human and... something else." Gavriel said with narrow eyes.
"Something else..?" Alvin repeated wondering what creature had escaped from hell again.
"Guys , I just hacked into the CCTV footage and this is what its showing." Seth said as he gave Gavriel his phone. The first footage started from earlier that night where the guards were patrolling normally. The second footage showed that nothing strange or unusual happened. The next footage showed where they walked in and that was it.
"And guess what, Its the same as the footage from the satellite." Seth said in a grim voice.
"Strange." Alvin commented. Seth is a good hacker, ranking second in the world. And if he couldn't find anything both on the CCTV camera and the satellite then something was wrong somewhere.
Gavriel didn't say anything and neither did his expression change. He threw the phone to Seth before walking away. He had a feeling that his sunshine had something to do with this but he is still not sure and doesn't want any suspicious eyes on her. Alvin silently stared at his back as he stood up and dusted his trousers.
"He knows something. " Seth said and Alvin hummed before following Gavriel.
The following evening, Ava woke up at her normal time. After eating, she asked bulter Charles about Abel.
"He is alive young miss." Charles said mildly. The young man was freaking out and almost had a mental breakdown. The doctor had to inject him to calm him down. They could not wipe his memory as Ava instructed them not.
"Good." Ava stood up and stretched then she left the dinning room with Butler Charles following her. "Speak."
"Um.. Your grandfather arranged a blind date for you." Butler Charles said with fake calm.
"When?" Ava asked nonchalantly as she continued walking.
"An hour ago." Ava stop walking when she heard the butler's words.
"Oh! Then it over."
"No it's not. Chairman Lee called before you woke up. He said anytime you are awake you should dress up and go that the guy is willing to wait." Butler Charles said in distress. He knew his young miss well enough to know that she won't go to this sort of arrangements. On the other hand, her grandfather will put the whole blame on him for not informing his granddaughter.
"Then did I wake up today?" Ava asked. Without waiting for his reply she walked away. Butler Charles sighed in resignation. His young miss will be the cause of his death one day.

In a classy and popular restaurant, a young man with unquie and attractive grey eyes was sitting alone quietly sipping his wine attracting the attention of all the females in the restaurant. He kept checking the time on his expensive wrist watch while looking at the door. He was supposed to be Ava's date but she didn't show up. The phone beside him vibrated and he picked it up.
"Is she there?" Elder Lee old asked nervously.
"She is not coming, is she?" Gavriel asked. His voice was calm.
"Hehe..." Elder Lee laughed awkwardly. "Her butler just informed me that she hasn't woken up." He cleared his throat after speaking. Ava abd her butler were going to hear it from him.
"Hm.. I see." Gavriel said calmly. Elder Lee wonder why he was still calm even after hearing that Ava wouldn't show up. Any man would be slightly upset especially a prince like himself. "Send me her address... now."
His words stunned Elder Lee but it was quickly replaced by a mischievous chuckle. "Alright. Infact I'll send my personal assistant to escort so they will allow you pass through the gate without any issue." He said with excitement bubbling in his voice. Gavriel didn't object to the suggestion. Even he knew that it would be hard to enter Ava Lee's mansion without the assistance of the old man.
A minute later, a message showed up on his phone screen. It was the address he asked for. "If the mountain won't come to Muhammed then Muhammed should go to the mountain. " He muttered before leaving the restaurant in his black ferrari.
Unknown to him, someone was watching him right from the moment he entered the restaurant till he left. Not that he cares as there was only one woman on his mind.
