Chapter 195 Gathering Intel
Chapter 195 Gathering Intel
After they had gotten their well deserved rest and sleep, it was finally the next day and Jake woke early but not as early as he usually would and he was surprised to see someone awake before him.
In fact, he had gotten ready and styled his hair more than usual.
"Hey Peter, you're still hung up on that girl? I thought you would have forgotten about her since you have feelings for nurse Hayley." Jake smiled.
"Haha, very funny." Peter said sarcastically. "Amelia is very perfect for me and I'm going to do whatever it takes to have her. I think I love her."
"Haha." Jake laughed as he got out of bed. "Peter is in love. Alright let's see how long this will last. I'm sure when you see another pretty girl, you are going to say the same thing."
"You haven't experienced anything called love yet. The only thing you love is getting stronger and ridding the world of werewolves." Peter said, turning around to look at Jake.
"Have you even thought of a life aside this one? What will you do after you have rid the world of werewolves, gotten stronger and then let's not forget your fantasies of toppling the Big three then what next?" Peter asked.
"I... I don't really know." Jake said as he quickly went to the bathroom and Peter just shook his head.
"Don't you think that was a little bit harsh?" Alex asked as he slowly opened his eyes.
"He needs to know that there is also a life aside from constantly fighting and trying to rule the world. Has he even considered Kate's feelings? She loves him but he doesn't even realise that." Peter said.
"Just give him time, I think love isn't one of the things on his mind right now. He has other things to focus on like getting the Iron Fist Guild off our back. I don't even know how this will go." Alex said.
Peter just sighed and then went back to sit on the bed. And after a few minutes, Jake came out and also started getting ready while Alex went to take his bath.
"Look I'm sorry man if my words had hurt you." Peter said.
"No it's okay, you are right, there is a life after this one but it's not my priority right now." Jake replied with a small smile on his face before he turned around again so Peter wouldn't see his face.
"So what's the plan?" Zee asked.
"I find out what was going on with that slave trade stuff I saw the previous day. Something feels off about it." Jake quietly said.
"Alex, I just sent you five thousand credits, use it to get what you want for yourself and Peter but make sure to spend it wisely. I'm putting you in charge of the money and Peter because I don't trust Peter." Jake said.
"Me? Why don't you trust me?" Peter asked.
"Because you might just squander all the money on a girl or unnecessary stuff." Alex replied then he turned to Jake.
"Don't worry, I will handle him."
"What about you? Where are you headed?" Helen asked.
"Sightseeing." Jake said and then he swiftly left the inn to head over to only heavens know where while leaving the others behind.
"So what now?" Berg asked.
"We will do what Jake said, gather Intel so we can formulate a solid plan." Alex shrugged.
"And how do you suppose we do that?" Peter asked.
"Actually I have a way." Helen said with a smug smile on her face as if proud of herself.
"What way?" Alex asked.
"The mistake that bastard made was keeping some of our Guild members with him to serve him and we will use that to our advantage." Helen smiled.
"How so?" Alex asked with a raised brow.
"There are people that are very loyal to us and my dad and they won't be moved even by money that easily. So we just have to meet one of them and get our information." Helen said.
"Are you sure of this?" Berg asked.
"Yes, a hundred percent." Helen smiled.
"Fine, let's do that now." Alex said as he stood up and they headed out to go find this person Helen trusts so much.
