Chapter 439 - 439: They Found Him

Mr. Carter already left the hospital but his mind was still thinking about Phantom. His name Lester Morgan and his face were familiar to him but he couldn't remember when he heard it or where he first saw him.

After racking his brain hard, he gave up since he couldn't recall no matter what. For now, he would just relax his mind. He was hoping that somehow he would remember it.

Unknown to Mr. Carter, the moment he walked outside that hospital someone from the enemy's side had spotted him. The Dark Knight Organization had never stopped searching and looking for them.

After so many years of being hidden, finally they saw the genius scientist once again. The men reported this good news to the Dark Lord. The Dark Lord instructed them not to move recklessly. They should just follow Matt Carter without his knowledge.

He didn't give them orders yet to capture him. He asked his men to monitor and observe him for a few days to find out if he had someone who was helping him to hide from the Dark Knight Organization.

Mr. Carter was clueless. He was already being followed by the Dark Knight's men. Two men were assigned to watch his every move. His hideout was now exposed to them. It just a matter of time and the Dark Knight would make their moves to catch him.

Another reason for doing this was to find out if he had someone close to him that they could use to blackmail him so that he would cooperate with them once again and continued working at their Bio-weapon facility.

Mr. Carter was a very valuable asset to the Dark Knight Organization that's why they didn't kill him yet. Besides, he couldn't go to law enforcement to ask for help since Dark Knight also had men inside those agencies.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Oblivious of the impending danger their friend was going to encounter, Erick and Elle were still rejoicing together with Phantom and Erick's parents for their little bun or rather, for their little Lee.

They introduced Phantom as the foster father of Elle. Sarah and Raymond were surprised because they knew that Phantom was Elle's former boss in the Falcon Cafe. He also introduced himself as Tom, Charles's father.

Elle explained to them that Phatom and Charles were her secret family. Falcon Cafe was part of their disguise before. They didn't dwell on the past. They were just happy that a little bun was added to their family.

They even discussed renovating Erick's house and had an extension wherein it would serve as a playground and room for Erick and Elle's children in the future. The husband and wife also liked Sarah's suggestion.

Everyone was really excited for little Lee to be born in this world. Grandparents were already planning to buy clothes and toys for their little Lee.

It was 5:00 oçlock in the afternoon when Elle was discharged from the hospital. They immediately headed to Erick's place so that Elle would continue resting at home.

They also invited Phatom to stay over for dinner. Charles would also join them in a while. Sarah, Raymond, and Phantom were the ones who would prepare their dinner tonight. They let the couple, Erick and Elle, have quality time together.

They were currently in Erick's room, lying and cuddling together on the bed. Erick's arm served as Elle pillows while Erick was hugging her. They were lying sideways, facing each other so that they could see each other's faces.

Erick's penetrating gaze never left Elle's face. He was staring at her with so much love and tenderness as a gentle smile played across his handsome face.

"From now on, you should listen to me. You are not allowed to do dangerous missions now. You have to take good care of yourself and our baby. Forget about those enemies. Leave them to us. Just focus on maintaining your good health and our baby's health." Erick softly said to her with his pleading look.

Speaking of the dangerous mission, Elle remembered that she was supposed to join and help Black Shadow and the Skull Gang in sabotaging the Dark Knight Organization's transaction in the Black Market this week.

It was also a perfect opportunity to reveal the Dark Lord's identity. She heard that he would come personally to close this deal.

But from the look of it, her situation right now was not ideal to go for the mission or else her baby's safety would be put in danger once something might go wrong. Aside from that, Erick would surely not allow her to do that.

'I think I have to take back my words and apologize to Black Shadow. I know he is dying to do this mission with me. Too bad, I can't do it now.' Elle thought to herself.

After much thought and careful consideration, Elle finally agreed to Erick's request.

"Yes, hubby. I will do that for our baby's sake. I promise I will take good care of myself and our baby." Elle reassured him. She held her stomach while saying those words. It was starting to be her habit.

Meanwhile, Erick's face brightened up after hearing that. He was glad that Elle agreed immediately.

"Thank you so much, wifey!" 

Because of his happiness, Erick started showering kisses on Elle's face. He kissed her on her forehead, her eyes, her nose, her cheeks, her chin, and lastly her lips.

Erick planted a lingering kiss on her lips that made her short of breath. He felt like it's been a long time since the last time they had slept together. They became busy with their mission. 

But Erick was glad that his effort didn't go to waste. He succeeded in impregnating his wife. Little Lee was now inside her belly.

Erick didn't get enough of her so he pulled her head once again for a deeper kiss. He kissed her passionately. Then he moved his free hand going to her belly, caressing her stomach. He also loved doing that.

Meanwhile, Elle's hand was now at the back of Erick's head, clutching his hair as they deepened the kiss. They made them feel each other's love through this kiss.
