'Hello Mr. Aldine,"
'Do you have any news?"
'The baby disappeared from the orphanage before they could sell him,"
'Sell him? What on earth are you talking about?" Alexander asked with furrowed brows.
'The orphanage that Miss. Sheila kept the kid and was involved in child trafficking, a woman carried the baby away before it was the time to sell them," he explained.
'Then?"
'The orphanage didn't catch the woman because the organization was caught shortly after, I did my assignment and the only picture of the woman that I was able to get was her side view and even then she was wearing a hood, she used a face cap and a mask," The P.I on the other side explained and Nate showed him a picture that was on the phone.
'I would have to dig around the place and get back to you," he informed and Alexander nodded before she hung up the call.
'You have a meeting with Mr. Myers next, do you want to meet him now or should I postpone it?" He asked and Alexander stood up.
'Let us meet him," He said and Nate nodded.

'So when do you want me to meet her?" Matthew told Claire they had met up to make a plan on how to make Sapphire forgive Matthew.
'Now is a good time, we can go back together but when you get there you have to apologize to her," She replied
'That is easy," he said, taking a sip of his tea.
'You also have to apologize to Alexander too," she added and Matthew scrunched his brows in disgust.
'Why should I do that?"
'That is the only way for you to show your sincerity and support, you want to make peace with Sapphire? Then you have to tolerate Alexander too," She told him frankly, 'whether you accept the fact or not, Matthew, even if Alexander is a shady man, he is still a good man,"
'Okay. Let us go and meet her," Matthew said and Claire shook her head in disagreement.
'No, calm down Tiger. She would not be back at the house yet, why don't you meet her on another day? I would check her schedule for you," Claire said.
'Do you keep your paintings at Alexander's house, I would really like to see it,"
'No I don't, it is in a place far away from this place, we would be back super late if we go now,"
'Let us do that, I don't have anything better to do,"

Alyssa was sweating by the time the show was done, she had gone to Ruby's concert, she had reserved a VIP seat and one of the guards had taken her there, Alicia had some things to deal with.
'God, that felt so nice," Andrea said beside her and she nodded in agreement, she had brought Andrea and Andrew with her to the concert.
'I didn't know that Uncle Ruby is such a good musician, he has a lot of fans, they didn't leave him after he left that damning entertainment industry that caged him," Andrew said and Alyssa smiled.
'Let us go to the backstage to meet Ruby, he already said that we would be allowed in, he told the manager about us," Alyssa told them and they nodded, she signaled to the guard and he came to them
'Do you think we would go on a picnic anytime soon, all of us, as a big family?" Andrea asked and Alyssa thought about it.
'That is a good idea, the last time was fun,"
'Yeah, it was but we have to be mindful of everyone's schedule, we would ask around,"
'Yay!"
They were stopped by a lady before they could pass the entrance that led to the backstage.
'Fans aren't allowed here, turn back and go away, don't try your luck," she told them rudely and they all stared at one another. 'I know that you are surprised that I saw through you but you should get the hell away and let the man breath, I would greet him for you,"
'Where the fuck did this they meet this stupid Cinderella who never got a fairy grandmother to help her?" Andrea said and the woman stared at her in surprise.
'Who the hell are you calling stupid," The lady asked in anger.
'You, I am talking to you, you have something you want to do about it?" Andrea replied with a raised brow but Andrew stood in front of his twin.
'I am sorry if she hurt your feelings by calling you stupid, she thought that you knew about it like the rest of us, by the way we are Ruby's cousin, so we are here to see him" Andrew said and Alyssa couldn't help the laughter that fell from her lips, even the guard with them chuckled while the lady face turned red.
'You are rude, who the hell do you think you guys are, trying to deceive and lie?"
'There is so much talk about morals, values and goodness, I prefer being rude, deceiving and lying by all means necessary, you are welcome," Andrew replied.
'If you have ever met Ruby I am sure that all you have done is watch from afar, you crazy assed fans,"
'Oh my fuck," Andrea said, face palmed.
'Alyssa, Andrea and Andrew, what are you doing there?" Ruby said when he got out of where he was and saw them standing there, he left those he was standing with to attend to them.
'Andrea," He called her and she waved at him, while the lady stared at them with wide eyes. 'Andrew," he called the boy but he only stared at him with wide eyes.
'I am loading," he replied.
'Loa…what is he talking about?" Ruby asked Andrea and Alyssa.
'Someone just told us something so profoundly stupid," Alyssa said and Ruby raised his brows still not understanding how that had anything to do with Andrew.
'So his brain crashed and had to restart, he would be available in a bit," Andrea said and the lady cheek reddened in anger.
'Oh…" he trailed off, nodding, even though he was still processing their words.
'So, Ruby, who the fuck is she?" Alyssa asked and Ruby turned to glance at the lady.
'I don't know her, don't think I have ever seen her," he replied. 'Maybe she is a fan,"
'A crazy ass fan she is if she is one of your fans, now would you do us a favor and stand guard at the door against your likes," Alyssa told her and Ruby went behind her, nodding to the guard that he can leave.
'Let us go," he said and they nodded, they walked past the lady who was gaping at them and Andrew turned to poke out his tongue at her.
'Crazy Anabelle," Andrea mouthed and the lady fisted her hand. They insulted her and made her miss the chance to take a picture with Ruby.
'Crazy set of people," she gritted and marched away angrily.
