Philip was restless, Cole was anxious, Diego was missing and Dave had been kidnapped.

“Have you tried his number again?” Cole asked.

“ Yes, I even tried dialing it a minute ago but it was switched off” Philip answered anxiously.

There was a ring.

“Your phone?” Philip asked.

“No, I guess it’s the land-line, I’ll get it” Cole said.

“Hello”, It’s for you Philip” Cole said before giving him the phone.

“Hello”

“We need to talk”

Fifteen minutes later, Philip was at his office in the Heiscephas Apparels Headquarters.

“I don’t think I introduced myself earlier, I’m Adrian Scape”.

“And I’m Philip Book” Philip said whilst extending a hand Adrian readily shook.

There was something about this guy, Philip thought to himself, There was definitely something that made him believe everything he said, Philip had always been a rational man, grounding all his decisions in facts, but here he was, discussing the release of his brothers with a man he wasn’t even sure knew their whereabouts.

“I have them both and I would like a trade” Adrian said.

“How much do you want?” Philip asked.

“You think this is about money?” Adrian said and laughed again.

“Then what do you want?” Philip asked.

There was no answer.

“You are going to do something for me” Adrian finally answered.

“And what will that be?” Philip asked.

Philip had never really felt fear but this guy made him feel uneasy and really uncomfortable.

“Do you like Brazil?” Adrian asked Philip in a way that made it seem more like a statement than a question.

Meanwhile, Back at the Book Mansion, Cole was pacing back and forth, Still very anxious and uneasy, during one of his “trips” he lost his coordination for a moment and hit the table which sent the land-line crashing.

“Fuck” Cole said while he bent down to gather the broken pieces, Midway the picking, He paused for a moment and picked up a listening device.

The phone had been bugged.

Probably that was why the the criminals knew when Dave went out without security or the extent Diego would go for the security of his brothers. Cole was furious, the recent incidents weren’t coincidental activities by thugs, they were planned events by Professional criminals who had being listening to every word they said and they must have had help with the installation by someone within and Cole knew he had to find out who……….
