Chapter 54 Trying to escape

BACK AT THE SENATORIAL RESIDENCE.

"No, no. I can't tell him anything at thus moment. Knowing how my son is. He can flare up at any moment.. "

"But how did he know of my involvement with James. That stupid fool must be careful.." He thought.

"Dad, I'm asking you a simple question.." Damien said and Leo jolted out of his thoughts.

"Ahem..' He cleared his throat.

"Of course, I know him. I mean who wouldn't?" Leo shrugged.

"Moreover we are politicians.." He added.

'That's not what I'm asking about, Dad. Do you know him personally? Are you very close to him? Do you guys do business together? Those are the questions I'm insinuating at!" Damien snapped and Leo sighed.

"Believe me son, I don't have anything to do with that man aside politics. That's it.." Leo said and Damien just stared at him.

No matter how hard he was trying to believe him, one of part of him didn't believe him.

"So are you in town for now or you are leaving soon?" Leo asked.

"I'm leaving soon. I have no business whatsoever here.."

"Son, you should stay here. Settle down here. Get married and have kids.."

Damien chuckled silently.

"Really? Now you are acting concerned? Sorry dad, I'm not ready now for all those stuff you mentioned. I will be leaving soon. I can't stay here, remember I have no family here.." Damien said and Leo sighed again.

"Okay then.." Damien said and turned to leave.

"Wait, son. I arranged your favourite meals for you. Aren't you going to have some.."

"There is no need for that.." Damien said and walked out.

Leo sighed.

"If you only know I am doing this all for you. Just because of you. Your mum couldn't understand anything. She didn't want to understand and that's the reason she left us but I promise to make you my legacy. You will be the owner of everything I have. All my businesses in out and of this country. The time is not right now.." He said and brought out his phone. He dalied James's number and he answered the call immediately.

"Yes, Senator Leo.."

"Are you sure you are keeping our identity known?" Leo asked.

"Of course, Senator. No one knows we are business partners.." James replied.

"Wow! But my son has suspicions. You need to be careful so we won't get caught.." He said.

"Yes, Senator.."

"How about the shipping of the girls and kids to China. When will it start?" He asked.

"In two days time.." James replied.

"Make sure this mission is a success. I don't want to hear that it failed again or else we are going to lose our positions.." Leo said.
