Chapter 538 The Capital (2) Meet Him

At 8 PM of the second night, a triple team containing Hannah, Theodore and Jimmy set off from Kensbury on a new car with a Capital license plate number.

As always, Jimmy was the driver.

Theodore sat beside him, while Hannah rested herself in the seat behind.

"When we get to the capital, we will settle down in Marriot Deluxe Club. It belongs to my family. So we don't need to check in and we can avoid any possibility of exposure." Theodore said, "Meanwhile, I had my people get Melvin Balderston's agenda. With that, we can figure out when and how to meet him."

"Great," Hannah nodded.

In most of the cases, Theodore was a reassuring ally for his thorough consideration.

Though rough he appeared to be, he was rather thoughtful.

Without him, they would have spent more time before figuring out Oscar's implications. When Oscar talked about his birthday, he was giving them a clue, which was his cell phone.

Hannah sat and pondered in silence, watching the highway dashing backwards and the sky as black as pitch.

Oscar's thin figure broke into her mind.

Hannah was tingling with heartache.

She would save Oscar at all costs, and she must send Charles to hell at any price.

The car was filled with silence.

Theodore reposed in his seat. Maybe he had less taste of sleep too.

Hannah sat still like a stone figure, watching outside.

Thanks to Theodore's arrangement ahead, their secret travel went smoothly badly.

They arrived at Marriot in the capital before 9 am of the next morning. Then they were led to a deluxe suite.

"Do you need a break or food first?" Theodore inquired.

A whole-night car trip was indeed exhausting.

"I might need some sleep to wake up my appetite," Hannah replied. She was worn out.

Then Theodore said no more.

They moved into their bedroom respectively and slept quickly.

When Hannah woke up, it was 3 pm already.

Hunger might be the reason to drag her out of her slumber.

When she opened the door, she found her teammates were already working.

Men had enviable vitality indeed. They seemed to have a strange ability to recover from exhaustion much faster than women. "We have fed ourselves. And I have arranged room service for you." Theodore said to Hannah when she went out.

"Thank you."

Not for a while, the room service was in place. Hannah took a satisfying meal. Her appetite was awakened after the long break.

After the meal, Hannah sat on the lounge in the living room.

Theodore passed her a document and said, "This is Melvin Balderston's introduction, including his preference, hobbits and daily routine. Take a look and replace out a suitable time that we can have a good meeting with him."

Hannah plunged into the papers as soon as she fetched it.

Melvin Balderston was at age 31, unmarried, and had a girlfriend.

His girlfriend, Wendy, a diplomatist, used to be Melvin's classmate and they developed into lovers. Their relationship was headed towards marriage and they would likely get married next year.

Hannah read ahead.

Besides handling the business of his family, big and small, Melvin Balderston was on duty in Capital City Hall. And coincidentally, he was in charge of the Investigation Department. So having him inserted into Oscar's case was perfectly reasonable.

Hannah started her plan when she read, so the papers cost her a quiet long time.

Her wordless reading seemed too long for Theodore who lost his patience and said, "So do you have a plan? When shall we meet Melvin Balderston?"

"The day after tomorrow," Hannah answered, "Wendy's birthday."

"But is he willing to have a talk with us on his woman's birthday?"

"There is no other day more suitable than that," Hannah said surely, "Can you replace out how Melvin Balderston celebrates Wendy's birthday at the usual case, a party or a romantic dinner? After that, let's decide how to meet him more naturally."

"OK," Theodore responded quickly and set off on his task.

He trusted Hannah who never disappointed him.

Theodore started to arrange for his people to follow up, while Hannah kept on her study on the papers.

The more she learned, the surer she was that the Balderston family was more powerful than they seemed to be.

It was a humble family of the upper class. And Melvin Balderston was more capable than any Collins. It was less possible that the Balderstons would allow the Collins to have a power monopoly in Northfield. Therefore, the Balderstons' prudence was a sort of pretence, and they were preparing to give the Collins an unexpected shoot.

If she guessed right, the Balderstons would welcome cooperation with her, for it would be a win-win situation.

"An update," Theodore got back to Hannah.

She pulled back from her thought.

"The Balderstons were quite humble, different from the Collins. Melvin Balderston always keeps a low-key attitude toward his privacy. Given the years before, he would have a private dinner with his girlfriend a a restaurant." Theodore said, "Coincidentally, it's in Marriott."

A slight frown crept on Hannah's forehead.

"Yes, it's right here," Theodore could not control but laugh, "Well, God bless us!"

Hannah laughed too.

Luck did be an irresistible gift from heaven.

"Then what is our plan?"

"Just wait."

Waiting for the fish to swim to the net itself.

The day came.

Hannah and Theodore stood in a small private dining hall reserved by Melvin, in uniform. They disguised themself as servers in Marriott.

Just as in his usual style, Melvin did not put his private life under the spotlight. Though he made a block booking, he chose a way that would draw less attention. The restaurant he booked was small-sized, with only 5 desks in all. A one-night-off would not pose a dramatic impact.

Compared with the Collins, the Balderston cared more about their reputation.

It was 7 pm.

The targets showed up. Melvin and Wendy arrived at the restaurant in due time.

A man who was well built walked from a distance, with a pair of framed glasses lending him an air of royal grace.

When he was near, Hannah recognized that he looked exactly like the one in the pictures in the media. But he looked friendlier in reality. Maybe that was because he was with his beloved.

Hannah seized her gaze.

She lowered her head, and stood there respectfully, just as an ordinary waitress.

Theodore stood beside her.

There were more other servers around, all standing.

Melvin pulled out a dining chair for Wendy and returned to his own after the lady sat down. Then he ordered, "One server stays and the rest of you are free to go, thanks." Theodore turned to Hannah who made a slight nod to him.

Hannah was more familiar with Melvin Balderston's preference, so she was the one to stay as they had planned before.

Moreover, she had spent two days learning how to be a professional waitress. She was such a diligent student that sometimes Theodore felt upset.

After all, she was the valuable pearl for Oscar who could sacrifice his life for her.

Now she consigned herself to be a server just to knock out a chance to save Oscar.

This must be the most unwilling scene for Oscar.

Theodore stood at the door outside, waiting while recollecting Oscar in jail.

Of course, at this moment, the matter he cared about most was if Hannah could convince Melvin to do them a good turn.
