��What!? How can madam behave so rashly and give you the position of the team leader?,�� Stella exclaimed. Sophia frowned and pouted. Why is Stella acting like this is a big deal?
It is actually a big deal to Stella. She couldnt believe her ears when she heard the news about Sophia being elected as the new team leader.
She doesnt even have any experience whatsoever in this assassin job so why would madam suddenly elect her as the new team leader. What is going on?
Does madam have an ulterior motive for doing this?
��Whats wrong? Why are you so against the fact that she chose me as the new team leader? Are you jealous of my success?,�� Sophia suddenly retorted angrily.
She cant think of any other reason why Stella is acting so unhappy about the news expect for the obvious fact that she is jealous of her success.
She is very upset and angry that Stella can actually feel this way to her after all the love and care she showed her since she brought her here and saved her from that hotel room.
��No, no... Dont misunderstand me. Thats not it,�� Stella said and tried to move closer to Sophia but Sophia moved further away from her with an angry look.
��Then why are you acting like this? Shouldnt you be happy instead?,�� Sophia asked and Stella nodded.
��Will you just listen to me! I just find it suspicious that madam gave you such an important position. You dont have any training or experience so why would she just elect you as the team leader. Dont you find it suspicious?,�� Stella asked and Sophia looked at her without saying anything.
��What if she just chose me cause she has seen the potential in me?,�� Sophia replied instead. Stella laughed and told her,��My dear Sophia, you really are naive. Madam wouldnt just choose anybody for this position. If you ask me, I will tell you that madam has a motive.��
Sophia looked at her. Does madam really have a motive for choosing her? Turns out that, Stella was absolutely correct cause few days before the assassinators finally embarked on their journey to find the perpetrator that was behind the plane crash, madam asked someone to call Sophia.
When the person eventually directed her to separate quarters, she was stunned when she entered the room. It was like three rooms combined together. There was a king-size canopy bed in the middle of the room.
There was someone on the bed. When Sophia walked closer, she gasped. On the bed laid the most handsome man she has ever seen. Even if he is in a coma with series of tubes connected to his body, his enigmatic and refined expression was still present.
She couldnt stop gaping at him with her mouth wide open. She actually thought Alex is the most handsome man she has seen so far but this man has made her doubt theory.
He was wearing a plain hospital gown even if he is at home. There is an oxygen mask connected to his face. The only sounds heard in the room is from the vital sign beeping machine.
Sophia couldnt stop staring at him. She didnt even notice when the door opened until she heard that familiar cold voice that made her flinch a little bit in fear.
��What are you doing here?�� Sophia turned around instantly when she heard Madams voice behind her. She bowed and greeted her before telling her that,��Someone directed me to this room that you asked of me.��
��Yes, I asked someone to call you but I never asked her to bring you to this room. Why are you in Justins room? Dont tell me you just accidentally wander into my sons room?,�� Madams voice was really harsh making Sophia break into cold sweat.
Did that girl purposes mislead her into this room? Was she planning to make her get in trouble with madam? It is really suprising that she still doesnt know that so many girls are already jealous and envious of her because she suddenly gained favour in Madams eyes so it is only natural that they will try to plot against her.
��I am very sorry ma. I must have mistook the directions she gave me to this place. I wont have intentionally wander in here. I will leave right away now,�� She apologized and turned to leave but madam suddenly stopped her.
��Since you are already here, lets talk about it here,�� She said and Sophia looked at her. What is she going to say? What does she want to talk about?
��I know you must have been wondering alot why I would suddenly give you the position of a team leader. Actually I want to test you if you would be loyal to the organization. But first, before you all embark on your journey, you have to undergo training,�� Madam said.
Sophia gulped. Training!? Is that bodybuilding excercise? ��Since this training will be for only a short time, I have hired trainers for you. Experts. I hope you can brace yourself and endure the training,�� Madam said and Sophia nodded again.
How hard can it be? But she was proven wrong once again when someone suddenly came to her room the next day as early as four am for her early morning excercise.
She grumbled and had to wear tight clothes to the cold courtyard. The sleepiness suddenly disappeared from her eyes when she saw how the courtyard has been transformed to a training ground.
When she saw the trainer that was going to train her, she almost ran away. The man is very tall and huge in size. His face was so stern like he was forced to teach her. He looked like he could just squash her in one of his large hands.
