The Love Trap of the Ruler.

CHAPTER 139. NEW CASE

"I've decided. We better not continue this relationship! I've thought about it and feel like this relationship is going to be very tiring. So I don't want to have any more contact with you, and I also want you to stop calling me. About what happened to us, we better forget it. Good bye."

Graciella's fingers were slightly trembling. Graciella took a deep breath and finally she touched the send button. He glanced slightly towards his phone screen. Seeing the one tick indicates the message is still delayed to get to the recipient.   I don't know why his feelings are getting so bad. Why not even sent? he then immediately deleted the entire message from and for Xavier. He did not care when the message would be received or not by Xavier. Besides, he doesn't want to always look at his phone out of curiosity.

Graciella puts the phone on Daren's desk due to reports from some of her employees. Graciella took her breath. I don't know why his feelings aren't good now. Instantly there was a feeling of being lost and becoming a very heavy tightness.

"Hey! I just got a good job for you" said Daren, who entered the room with a large map.

"Oh? really true?" Graciella commented on a sweet smile disguising the void she felt now. But the gloom that was in his eyes could not be covered at all.

Daren sitting in front of Greciella could see that. But he did not want to comment on anything, if indeed it was Graciella's decision. He will support her.

"Yes, but I'll say it first, this is the case that happened on island A. So if you take this case, you're gonna have to go to island A which is pretty far from here. You have to get on the train and continue on the boat, how?" said Daren again thrust the file. Greciella frowned, she then took the map.

"It sounds interesting" Graciella said again while removing the contents of the map.

"really right? I also feel that it's good for you," Daren said with a smile.

"What's this case about?" tanya Graciella saw some biodata and family photos that looked carefree and warm.

"The murder case of one family. They were found lifeless in their home. The head of the family, Mr. Sato, was found downstairs in the living room. His wife was found in their room, Mr Sato's in-laws were found in the kitchen, and their two sons were found in their respective rooms, all dead from gunfire" Daren said.

Graciella nodded listening to Daren's explanation. He then momentarily observed the biodata of the victim. Graciella frowned.

"Who is this young girl?" graciella pointed to a young girl who was being embraced by Mr. Sato.

"It was Yuki, the first child and the only daughter of the Lord one. And he was the only survivor because he was away on a trip from his school" Daren said.

"So does he know his whole family is dead?" graciella asked, frowning her forehead.

"I think he already knows," said Daren scratching the tip of his eyebrow. Actually not itchy at all, but he just felt sad, his work often touched the heart.

Graciella nodded slowly. Trying to guess how this girl felt when she found out her entire family was slaughtered while she was on vacation.

"The Sato family is one of the families seen on the island of A, they are known to be very generous and modest. Mr. Sato is also known as someone who made their surname viewed. Therefore he employs many of his family especially his sisters-in-law."

"Mr Sato is a hardworking person but he is very kind. Indeed, he was a little hard with his employees but balanced with his attitude that was so generous. Even some of the employees asked no one can answer if there is a business rival who can do this to Mr Sato's family" Daren said.

"What about the robbery indications?" Graciella said again.

"It's inside, but so far there's not a lot of stuff missing there. The crime scene is very messy, but I think for more details you have to come there," Daren said again.

"Well, I'll go there as soon as I can!" Graciella said as she put the data back on her map. He will learn more at home.

“Graciella, one more. I can't accompany you there. Amber is very fussy lately because she wants to grow teeth. And I can't take them both there either. So I've asked Ferdinand and Helena to come with you.”

“Yes, all right, I understand, just calm down and don't worry. Just to America I can go alone. If only to island A whose language and food are still the same as here, it is not a problem at all,” said Graciella with a smile that looks sweet.

“Yes, Helena will take care of everything about your departure later. Island A is said to be beautiful. If you have completed this case, take time to take a vacation for a moment,” said Daren who knows usually Graciella always resolves a case quickly.

“I just worked and already got a leave of absence. Brother, if you do this to every one of your employees, you will be bankrupt for a long time,” taunted Graciella.

“Haha, if you're my special employee. After all you've been studying so diligently for four years, take Helena on a vacation together. He is also an exemplary employee in this office. I can't take her for a vacation together, if I do, Ruby can't let me go into the room for a year,” Daren joked with a crisp laugh.

“If I knew Brother did that, I would inject chemical castration on brother!” threaten Graciella with a face that pretends to be serious.

“Wow! Why so cruel!” said Daren who seemed to be feigning fear.

“Alright, I'll get ready, I'll have to learn it too. When can I leave?” graciella said again.

“Secapnya. Helena said she was trying to get a train ticket tonight so you could get to her border tomorrow morning. Tomorrow morning you will board the ship and will soon get there.”

Graciella heard that nodding slowly. But as she nodded, her phone rang and made Graciella's heart almost jump out. From earlier he was indeed trying to divert his grief due to the message he sent. Wanting to be canceled was no longer possible because he had deleted it. So he's very agitated now. Afraid of what would be a reaction from Xavier.

Daren was a little curious about who called Graciella. Possibly Xavier. Graciella and Daren looked at the mobile phone screen lying on their table.

But the tension between them disappeared instantly when the two of them saw Laura's name on the phone screen. Graciella immediately grabbed her phone and received the call.
