As he was about to ask one of his minions on how to get in the wall in front of him suddenly went inside revealing stairs that went down, it was the same stairs as before, he walked down the stairs and saw a very different scene than before, the bas.e.m.e.nt was not twice as big as before, there are more servers around it and a lot of huge monitors everywhere.

People are working around, some of them are old faces and some of them are new to him, after looking around he walks in deeper into the room to find Derry sitting in front of a huge monitor and a young woman sitting next to him.

'What is she doing here'

Jason thought and walked towards Derry, Derry turned around and saw Jason walking towards him so he quickly got up from his chair and rushed towards Jason to give him and hug but Jason used his hand and stopped him right before him.

"Come on, I just want to hug you"

Derry said as he tried to reach Jason with his arms but Jason's arm was too long, Jason then looked at the woman who was sitting next to Derry.

"What is she doing here?"

Jason asked.

"I told her about us, I couldn't hide it from her for too long"

Derry said.

The woman is Jessica, Derry's girlfriend.

She gets up from her seat and walks towards him and nods her head.

"Brother"

She says softly.

"Even if you are Derry's girlfriend, we have no connection, you cannot call me that"

Jason said with a flat tone.

Jessica didn't say anything and just looked at Derry with a sad face.

"I hope this isn't a mistake. If something happens you know what I will have to do and you cannot stop me"

Jason said as he looks at Derry.

"She won't do anything or tell anyone, I trust her and you only have to trust me, and I know what you will do but I am willing to take this risk"

Derry said.

"Whatever, show me what that woman in my previous apartment is doing right now"

Jason said and walked past them and stood in front of the huge monitor.

Derry looked at Jessica and nods at her, she didn't say anything and just looked at Jason and followed Derry.

Derry sat down and opened up live footage from Jason's old apartment, there is no one inside, it seems no one is present in the room at the moment.

"Looks like she went outside, what will you do?"

Derry asked.

"Keep monitoring the room, inform me if she comes back"

Jason said and walked away, he was not in a good mood right now, he didn't like Derry bringing in Jessica inside the hideout, she is currently the weak link that is somehow connected to him and he doesn't like it, it was very foolish of Derry to bring her in but he cannot do anything now.

He has to prepare for the worse and if Jessica does somehow betray him he has to kill her even if Derry is going to hate him for that.

He walks out of the hideout and drives away in his car without wasting his time, back in the bas.e.m.e.nt Jessica is sad because she didn't expect her interaction with Jason to go like that, she thought that Jason liked her and would welcome her in his life, even though Derry had told her it will be hard she didn't think he would be right.

"Hey, don't worry, my brother is like that, sooner or later he will soften up to you"

Derry said and hugged her.

"I don't know, he didn't even talk to me properly, he said to not call him brother as well, I think he doesn't like me"

Jessica said.

"I don't know about that, who my brother likes and who he doesn't, only he knows about it, but don't worry as I said he will like you, you are my girlfriend after all"

Derry said and comforted her.

Jessica nodded her head and thought about it.

_____________________

Back to Jason, he got back to his old apartment, he looked around the area and saw some changes, the roads have been reconstructed, the houses around have also been reinforced, he then looked at his apartment and got in, he got into the elevator and pressed the b.u.t.ton to his floor.

As he stood on the elevator he felt something familiar around as if it was something that belonged to him, he didn't know what it was but it didn't feel threatening.

The elevator stopped at his floor, he walked down the old cracked corridor finally stopping in front of the door of his old apartment.

He turned the k.n.o.b and opened it, the door was not locked, well it couldn't be because he still had the key, he walked in and looked at the lock from inside and saw it was actually broken, only the latch was working properly.

He looked around the apartment and saw it was clean, he has never seen this room so clean before.

'Well at least she did something good'

Jason thought and started to look around, nothing seems to have changed during the time he left this room, only a few people live in this apartment and they don't care about who is living next to them, they are either low-level gangsters or poor students who are living alone, at the end of the day Jason doesn't care.

After looking around the room he found some clothes that belonged to the woman who is currently living here, he could feel the same feeling when he was at the elevator, it was stronger this time.

'Something is really weird, is she really that woman?'

Jason thought and sat down on his old bed and turned on the old vintage tv, waiting for this woman to come back.
