I am a Second Female Lead

Chapter 123: Last Arc 5

Arriving at the City b. Sheri contacted the person that trades weapons. Sheri wants to meet him in a

public place. She poses as another person and changes her appearance. Since in her old life she is

excellent at putting makeup. She uses that skill to transform her face from young to a little bit older. She

on tops of that wears a wig and dresses up as an ordinary housewife.

Arriving at the City B. Sheri walked toward the place they would meet. The time they would meet is

around 13.00 in the town plaza. It was however then 12.30 pm. She never describes her self-due to,

she wanted to make sure she is safe. The only thing she said on the phone is she will contact him once

she arrived. The plaza is crowded. Peoples go there for walking, jogging, etc. It is a perfect place to do

an illegal transaction.

Sheri sits on the bench near a garbage can with a sling bag. She was feeding the bird and acting like a

normal passerby. Sheri observes her surroundings and found there were suspicious men and women

walking around. She slowly walks away from that place. Sheri knew those were undercover police. It's

either the one she contacted with was already been arrested or they are being monitored by the police.

Anything can happen in this punishment world. Indeed, she could rely in the past but still, she can not

oversee how this world events.

Sheri didn't take a chance and just walk away. She roams around the city for a length of time. After

Sheri's plan failed to have a gun. She felt disappointed. She has to have a gun one way or another.

Nevertheless, she implements her second plan and that to seek a hideout. She returns to the city A

and looks for a house that she can rent through an agency. She contacted someone she knows in her

own world who does fake ids but authentic. It took her a few days to have a fake identity.

She bought it with a huge amount of money a john doe name and that made her as another person.

On the other side of the town Devon, 3 weeks ago, had already mobilized his men. He even asks the

police to post the picture of Sheri as wanted. Her face was all over the country and many fugitive

hunters are looking for her. Looking at the internet. The amount of capturing her keeps on rising from 1

million to 5 million in a span of weeks. Sheri was impressed.

Sheri on the other side. Already know she was being pursued. She alters her appearance by coloring

her hair, using a colored contact lense and substantially having no makeup. Every so often she does a

gothic look to hide her appearance. It's a hundred percent that no one will know who she is because of

her outlook. Before she does an exquisite makeup and dresses really beautiful now it's a 180-degrees

transformation. She makes certain that every time she goes out, she will have a different style. She

goes also hop from one motel to another.

While looking for a house to rent. Sheri selects a house close to the location where she can easily

monitor Eric and Devon's movement. She has so many things to be careful with. Her family is safe for

now who knows if the two tycoons will find a way to find them and involve them.

Sheri found a nearby small house in the area of Eric. As the saying goes. Keep your friends close, and

your enemies closer. She decided to be closer to Eric since his place is in the city while the place of

Devon is a villa. For the previous weeks, she confirms Eric's schedule. She knows every schedule Eric

because she was once a stalker to him. Now, she is just confirming if it still the same and indeed it is

still the same.

In the morning she usually jogs and tries to monitor him.

In one case Sheri was jogging, and she intentionally bumps into Eric who is also jogging at that time.

"oh, I'm sorry I wasn't looking where I'm going," Sheri said.

When Eric looks, who bump him, he instantly still. She looks like the Sheri Hoal he knows, but the eye

color is different and the hair color is also different. Her voice is also different. Her size is also different.

The woman in front of her has flesh, unlike the Sheri that he knows that is thin like a stick. He was

thinking it's impossible Sheri will deliver her self to him. The eyes of the woman, in addition, have no

sparkles like the eyes that irritates him the most.

"Sir, are you alright?" Sheri asked again pretending she is a concern.

"Oh, I'm alright." Eric snaps from his thought and said.

"Good to know, "Sheri said and looks at her watch.

"Then I head first," Sheri said goodbye to him.

Eric the whole time was looking at Sheri's back who is jogging. He instantly designates his people.

"A woman is jogging, wearing loose pants and a white t-shirt. There's a CCTV close by here. Find out

who is she. "Eric said and closed his phone.

On the way to his apartment, he can't stop thinking about the woman that bumps him.

Sheri knew the risk she's taking, but she makes sure everything is in order. The house she's in and the © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

name that she put in the record is her fake identity. It's a game of mind. She has to constantly keep on

making sure they will be busy looking for her. She doesn't want that they will turn their attention toward

her family.

When the men of Eric followed her and get her information. Eric was in deep thought while reading the

report.

A man came dressed in black suits.

"Boss, I have traced the phone call that called, but it's a prepaid one. We found the location of the call,

and it was near the building of the Goori enterprise. We are still also tracing the location of the Hoal

family." The man said.

Eric didn't reply. His poker face reveals nothing.

On the other side of the town. Devon couldn't even sleep. The picture of that woman keeps on playing

on his head. One time while taking a nap. He saw a woman who is holding a child and singing a tune.

Again when she looks at him, she smiles. When he saw that smile, his heart starts to beat so fast. Her

smiles are beautiful, but her part of the face is still blurry.

He keeps on wondering why is the face of another woman starts to show and why it is; that it's not

Janice.

"Who is on his dream all the time?" Devon thought

"The woman Sheri Hoal. What is her connection with all of this?" he thought. He wanted to interrogate

her. He wanted to know whats she knows. He wanted to see her in person, but she is good at running

away. His men, however, couldn't find her.

Meantime. Janice is already back at her apartment. Formerly, he wanted, they will live together but

Janice said no. He offered her a new car, new home new things but for Janice, she doesn't want to look

like a gold digger so she keeps on refusing everything that Devon offered. Even if Eric came and drops

by at her apartment, she doesn't want that; they will bring expensive stuff for her. These make the two

men fall deeply in love with her.

Devon just recently brought Janice back to her apartment.

Devon looks at his fiancee.

"I will ask someone to come to help you around the house," Devon said while fixing some stuff for her.

"Are you not staying?" Janice sadly asked.

Devon looks at her, before, every time she will show that mild and sad face he will move a mountain to

just to make her smile. He usually stops or moves every work that he will do. Now he doesn't know why

he felt so different. He cannot pinpoint what is it that makes his feeling change all of a sudden.

"I will be back later, I need to just fix something," Devon said,

"Alright."Janice tearily said.

"I'll be back I'll promise."Devon gently said. Janice nods her head and before Devon left. Someone

arrived and helps Janice with everything in her house.

Devon went to his office. He's tired. While leaning on his chair. One of his closest friends came.

"The great master Goori is having a hard time. What happened to you that you look like a mess. Is it

Janice? You can have another child."The man said.

Devon looked at the man and close his eyes and rest on his chair.

"I just have these constant dreams all the time," Devon said. He needs someone to talk with.

"hmmm care to share perhaps I can be of help."The man said while lighting up a cigarette.

"I always have these dream of a woman her face is blurry and on that dream, I keep on chasing her but

she keeps on vanishing in front of me and the last dream I have is when she smiles I can feel my heart

beats so fast and my world stood still. It has been a constant dream."Devon said.

The man lit up a cigarette and blow in the air. After a minute of silence, the man speaks.

"It's either your just sad of losing your child or you were unsatisfied with your current relationship or

your soul mate is showing her self." The man said.

"Don't get me wrong Janice is a nice girl but it's strange that you dream of something constantly. If it is

just one time, it is alright."The man further speaks.

Devon is silent the whole time. Indeed, it could be one of the three reasons why he keeps on dreaming.

"By the way, You better have a good reason why you asked me and pull me out of my mission."The

man said.

Devon looks at him and gets a folder at his right side of his drawer and put it in his desk. The man

walked toward his desk and look at the folder

"Find her. She's the one who harms Janice and my unborn child," Devon commanded.

"You pull me out of my mission just to find a bimbo?" The man asked while looking at the picture of

Sheri.

"She's good in hiding that even my men and the men of Eric Cooper cannot find her. Her family also in

overnight has been bankrupt and has flown out of this country until now we can't trace any one of them.

I even receive a call from her challenging..."He stops what he was supposed to say when he

remembers her voice. He stood still.
