Harry wondered who sent a message to his wife at night and ruined their romantic moment for a moment. His wife’s face looked serious.
"What is it?"
"Harry... It seems Kyle found the person who wanted to kill us all along."
Harry’s eyes widened. "Really? How could that be?"
"Tomorrow we have to meet Kyle. He said someone sent him a message out of the blue."
However, for some reason Harry felt something was odd. Why suddenly someone volunteered to be an eye witness even though the case had not been investigated for a long time? Is that person really a good person? As usual, his principle is not to trust anyone easily.
The next day, Harry and Claudia were forced to postpone their work again in order to reveal the truth behind the sudden accident they experienced. Kyle and Clarissa invited Harry and Claudia to meet in an elite building, one of the buildings owned by Kyle’s family.
They sat facing each other in the same room in a quite tense atmosphere, even though Clarissa took the opportunity to be attached to her lover. This made Harry quite lazy to look at his friend who, as usual, didn’t focus whenever he met a handsome man.
"Clarissa, actually you don’t have an important role in this mission, why are you joining the discussion?" Harry asked in a curt tone.
Clarissa responded with a sullen face. "I also play an important role because I am Kyle’s girlfriend."
"But you weren’t actually directly involved."
Claudia waved both hands to end this unimportant debate. "Can we not fight first?"
Harry folded his arms, his eyes focused on his best friend. "By the way, don’t you suspect that someone you know has been acting strangely in your presence lately?"
Kyle shook his head innocently. "No. But, actually I’m also confused about how this person could get my cell phone number and find out about our relationship?"
"Then, you immediately agreed to meet that person? What if that person is a bad person?"
Clarissa snapped her fingers. "Well, actually I had warned Kyle beforehand. "But, he remains stubborn in order to catch the criminal, Harry."
Every time his best friend acted innocent, Harry could only pat his forehead. In fact, Kyle has always had a soft heart and trusts people easily. That was one of the main reasons why Clarissa decided to date Kyle because Kyle’s attitude was very similar to hers. However, for Harry, dating Kyle is something that could endanger himself, because he is too innocent.
Harry shook his head. "Kyle, you never gave up until now. In the past, you were almost cheated by someone. Luckily I have you to protect you."
"But, if that person really wanted to help you and your wife, you wouldn’t protest, right?"
"Never mind, instead of arguing about useless things, how about we just develop a strategy?" Claudia suggested with a serious look.
"Do you have any ideas, Claudia?" Harry asked, looking at his wife with an enthusiastic smile.
"Kyle and Clarissa will meet that person, while you and I will act together."
Clarissa crossed her legs. "So, you will tell me to hold the meeting in a public place that is easy for people to reach?"
"You can ask the anonymous person to meet at your regular cafe. Just say that you will treat him."
"But, what if that person is not a good person?" Harry asked quietly.
"It’s time for you to act, Harry. Use your usual skills to deter sinners."
*****
That same day, Kyle and Clarissa met anonymously at Clarissa’s regular cafe. They had arrived early, occupying seats in the corner of the room, while the husband and wife occupied a place a little further apart so that their plans would not be known by the anonymous person.
While waiting for the anonymous arrival, Harry’s eyes focused on the table occupied by the couple as they tapped the table rhythmically. Meanwhile, Claudia was starting to get bored because her husband didn’t take the initiative to hold her hand. Even though they were on a secret mission, she didn’t want to act as if they were strangers.
With a pitiful face, Claudia touched the back of her husband’s hand. "Are you nervous, Harry?"
"No. I’m even more curious about who the eyewitness was at that time. Even though it was certain that no one was there." For a moment, his gaze fell on his wife, who was a little gloomy. "By the way, why is your face so gloomy? Are you afraid?"
Claudia rolled her eyes as she let go of his hand. "As I thought you couldn’t read my mind."
Now Harry understood his wife’s wishes. He held his wife’s hand again and kissed her temple briefly. "Forgive me. Actually, I am sensitive and know what you want. But, now we are on a secret mission."
"Even though our scenario is that we are dating. But you treat me as if I were just a work partner or a stranger."
"What must I do so that you will forgive me?"
Back again to Kyle and Clarissa’s current position who are looking at their respective watches. At the same time, finally a beautiful woman was seen coming towards them wearing professional work clothes. At the sight of the woman, Kyle’s jaw stiffened and his legs trembled. Staring at Kyle’s face, which was starting to turn pale, made Clarissa even more curious. Does Kyle actually know that woman?
The woman took a seat across from Kyle. Hold out your right hand and show a friendly smile. "Long time no see, Kyle."
Kyle swallowed a little nervously. "You... that anonymous, Catherine?"
"Yeah, I sent you a message yesterday, Kyle."
Clarissa couldn’t stand the very awkward situation right now. She pounded the table while looking at the strange woman in front of her with a grin.
"Who are you actually? How do you know Kyle?"
Catherine responded with a graceful smile. "It turns out that Kyle is dating you now. Alright, I will reveal my identity. I was Kyle’s first girlfriend."
