"What? No!" Mike frowns at Alfonso. He can't believe that Alfonso actually asked him that kind of question. Out of all questions, that is the worse one.

After what Johan did to Mary, he does not care about that man. Yes. He admits that he and Johan were very close in the past, but that was all in the past. Johan has no other meaning to him other than a traitor in his life.

"Then why are you here after hearing what Mary said to you? Did Mary put you in a mission that coincidentally here?" If Mike is not here for Johan, then the other reason that Alfonso can think of is that Mike is here because there is a mission that Mary wants Mike to finish.

"Somewhat like that."

Frustrated by that answer, Alfonso asked him again, "That kind of answer is not helping me to understand you. So let me ask again, why are you really here?"

Alfonso thought that the only person that he can't talk with properly was Zack, but now that Mike is in front of him, he thinks that it's not Zack who is hard to talk with, it's Mike.

Mike is not going straight to the point and kept on saying things over and over again to that point Alfonso is annoyed about it.

Sighing deeply, Mike replied at te frustrated Alfonso, "Look, Mary didn't give me a mission directly because she knows that I have my own personal mission here. She was just telling me that it's possible that Johan went to look at that place." After saying that Mike slump on the couch and is groaning in frustration. "I'm so stupid for leaving that weapon there! Argh! Stupid!"

Because of Mike's yelling, Alexandre woke up from his nap, then Alfonso kicks Mike's knee. "I can see that you're blaming yourself right now, but you don't have to volume your voice up!" Mike clearly knows that Alexandre was taking its nap, and yet he still exclaimed.

"Sorry." Mike apologized, but he doesn't seem sincere.

Alfonso went to Alexandre's side, then he tries to coax that child while he still continues to interrogate Mike. "So, what weapon are you talking about?"

"It's the weapon that Mary and I don't want anyone to use. That weapon was my extreme prize." 

Hearing that, Alfonso is once again shocked. For a moment, he wished that he did not hear that correctly. He knows what exactly Mike is talking about, and he got some bad feelings about it.

"You stupid, idiotic, moron, don't tell me that you hid that d.a.m.n invention of yours somewhere around this city and most likely, Johan found it?" Clear on his tone, Mike can tell that Alfonso is angry at him. Even he is angry at himself.

Having a hard time admitting it, Mike to a minute before answering Alfonso, "Y-Yes. I hid it somewhere in this city."

For the first time, Mike feels ashame of his carelessness. He hid the weapon in a secretive way. He made sure that no one who knows about him saw him hiding that weapon. Knowing that there is a possibility that Johan took that weapon, Mike is not sure how will he ever face Mary again.

"Why didn't you just hid the weapon near you? Like in your house or something. Somewhere not far from you. Why?" Knowing that Johan made an alliance with the Ricci family the risk of everything that they do now is higher if Johan did find that weapon.

"Because if I did that it would so obvious. As you know very well, I care about my family, I don't want either of my son and wife to get hurt when someone invaded my home." 

Hearing that, Alfonso doesn't know what else to say to Mike. All they can do now is to look if Johan did take that weapon.

"What are you still doing here? Shouldn't you be out there checking if the weapon is still there or not?" Alfonso said.

"I know, but I need you to be with me when I go and check that weapon's whereabouts." It's not that Mike is scared to check on the weapon, it is just that he want Alfonso to know where he hid the weapon. Having a secret like this is killing me, and because of that, he sometimes blames Mary for making him keep it as a secret.

"Why would I need to go with you? And even if I agree I can't just leave my child here all alone." Alfonso said with a frown plastered on his face. 

"Because I need you to know where the weapon is. Keeping a secret like this is killing me on the inside. And you can just have either Anna or Kyle to look after your kid." 

Noticing that Alexandre fell asleep again, Alfonso slowly puts the little guy down to the bed, then he faces Mike, "First of all, what's the use of knowing that weapon's whereabouts if it's not there? And secondly, those two youngsters are not here. So yeah, n.o.body is here to look after my kid except for me."

If the weapon is not on its rightful place, then what is the use of Alfonso knowing its whereabouts. He is not gonna waste his time on something that is obvious.

"Whether it's there or not, we should check it out. And where are Anna and Kyle?" It's always been like this, whenever he wants someone to take over urgently that someone is not around. It is like Anna and Kyle, he wants either of them to babysit Alexandre for a while, but they are not here. Sometimes, his luck is not always on his side.

"Those two are on a date. And even if we try to call them they won't answer because they don't want to be disturb." If Kyle ever did answer his call, Alfonso can already tell what Kyle will say to him, 'Uncle, it's your problem. Please don't disturb me or Anna.'

Just the thought of his nephew saying that to him is making him annoyed.

"That's just your excuses. Kyle will most likely not answer your call, but Anna? I'm sure that she will answer." Mike doesn't believe that Anna will put Kyle first before Alfonso. Back when Anna was still a little girl, Anna cries so hard whenever her Leonardo or Alfonso leaves her home. 

So he believes that whatever situation Anna may be in or who she is with, she will always put Leonardo, Alfonso, and her family first. Besides, she doesn't even know Kyle that well.

"Oh, you will be surprised at what kind of change did my nephew did to her." It seems to Alfonso that he is challenging him, so he took out his phone, then started to dial Anna's number. After a few rings and calls, Anna is not answering and it's directly leading him to Anna's voicemail.

'Hey, this is Anna. Sorry, I can't answer your call right now. I'm on a very important day today, so please leave a message.'

"You heard that? I told you so." Alfonso smirked at Mike.

Mike wanted to say something Alfonso, but somebody is suddenly calling Alfonso through his computer. And that somebody is Mary.

Without any hesitation Alfonso answers the call. "Mary, why are you calling?"

Instead of answering Alfonso's question, she answered him with a question. "Did Mike went to see you today, Alfonso?"

"Yes. In fact, he is still here. Do you want to speak with him?"

"Yes." With that, Mike immediately shows his face to Mary. "Mike, don't go where the weapon is located." She said, and both Mike and Alfonso stared at Mary in confusion.

"Why? I mean, it's important to know if the weapon is still there or not, right?" To both Mike and Alfonso's point of view, it's very important to know what is there current situation. If Mary is not letting Mike go and check the weapon, they will be at a big disadvantage against Johan and the Ricci family.

"Yes. It is important, but there is also a possibility that Johan didn't know where the weapon is hidden. Johan suddenly showing up out of the blue is just a sign that what he got is a clue about the weapon's location. He might have not to know what is the exact location." Mary explained.

Alfonso and Mike thought about it, and they agreed that Johan's appearance yesterday was to just lure Mike out to find the location of the weapon. Of course, Johan will be following Mike's every move.

"Smart move." Both Alfonso and Mike said at the same time. Because they were so frantic about Johan's sudden appearance, they didn't think about the other possibilities yet.

"Whether or not the weapon is there, it's better for us not to approach its location. We all just need to be ready for it."
