Chapter 22
Lana Castroff
I woke up with a whole set of headaches and I got into the shower right away. I need to go to work and I'm really not in a mood to talk to anyone today. I felt so shitty last night after being so drunk and really have no idea what I did after that.
I changed into my work attire and walked out from my room. I saw Phoenix calling someone and he's been pacing back and forth in the living room as he raised his voice to someone on that phone.
I grabbed a glass of warm water and drank it slowly as I saw him cussing over and over again. I walked towards him and bid my goodbyes. He waved at me and gestured me to go. I walked out from his penthouse and got into the lift when I realize I forgot my USB on my desk.

Phoenix Sterling"Where the hell is she?" I mumbled as I paced in front of the door because she hasn't comeback from work and it's already past midnight. I couldn't even reach her phone or her office number.Her secretary said she left already but there's no trace of her. Her phone was turned off since this morning and I couldn't trace it anywhere. I already asked some of my men to find her. What if there's something wrong with her?My heart was pounding hard thinking the worse scenario that could happen and I quickly threw those thoughts away. I ran my hands through my hair and couldn't help but stressing out."Mr. Sterling, we found her in the Four Seasons hotel. She checked in about an hour ago." My PI said as soon as I answered his call.

Phoenix Sterling"Stop looking at your phone, Phoenix. You're looking at it every 2 seconds." Chance said and I immediately put my phone away."I bet she's doing fine, she's a grown woman." Dean said as he looked down the window and sipped his wine."She's constantly getting drunk these days." I said and glared at Adrian who happened to be one of the person who she hung out with. Adrian laughed and he continued eating his steak."Let her be, she's not your real wife anyway." Adrian said."You say that because you like her." I hissed and glared at him hard. Dean turned to Adrian and raised his eyebrows wanting explanation what's going on."Dean, you will like her too. She's our type.

Lana CastroffAfter debating with Finn, I decided to deliver my products to him personally. I wanted to make sure that there won't be any acid this time and I want to watch Julie carefully because I know if I'm there, she won't be able to do anything.I already have my private jet ready with all of my products and I walked out from my hotel room to go to Greece. I got into the lift and went down to the lobby."Where are you going?" I flinched when I heard Phoenix's voice and I looked up to see him standing there looking at me. I turned around to see some people looking at us amused. I walked towards him and I don't want him to cause any trouble by talking in a loud voice."I'm going to Greece, I have brought some products for Finn." I said as I continued to walk.

Phoenix SterlingI've been with tons of women but no one could beat Lana. She's stubborn and I can't even predict her actions. Other women will be flatter if I apologize to them and tell them to come home with me but not Lana."So you're going to be mad at me for the rest of this trip?" I asked her and she turned to me."What's your plan on Julie? Tell me, I could help." I said and she took off her seatbelt. She turned to me and she took out her iPad from her bag. She opened a file and gave it to me.It was a CCTV footage of her going into the storage room to allegedly putting acid on Lana's product. Lana showed me another CCTV of her going to Lana's office trying to find something in there when Lana's not there. She's really hanging around with Lana's father who m

Lana CastroffI was greeted by Finn and Julie in his new hotel in Greece. It's a really beautiful hotel and he's done it again. Finn is the definition of a perfect man in my eyes and again his standards in woman right now is so low. I asked my men to bring the products to the hotel and Finn opened it himself.My phone couldn't stop vibrating and who else would it be? It's none other than Phoenix Sterling himself.Finn suddenly asked Julie to leave the both of us and I'm a little bit confuse. Finn led me to the pool and he let out a long sigh."What's wrong?" I asked."Do you have any idea how to make a surprise party?" He asked and I raised my eyebrows."For what? Julie's birthday?"

Lana CastroffI sipped my tea while looking at the beautiful sea of Greece. I was thinking about the access card that Julie talked about yesterday. Does she know about Phoenix being one of the Illicit members? Why does she need that access card?I felt Phoenix arms around my waist and he kissed my cheek. "Why are you awake this early?" He asked and I turned to him. He gave me a peck on my lips and I put my cup down on the table."Just admiring the view.""You look like you have a lot going on in your head. Did something happen yesterday? Did you and-""He's with Julie and.. he's planning to propose to her." I said and Phoenix raised his eyebrows. "Propose?""Yeah, it should have bee

Phoenix Sterling"Hello." I picked it up as I saw Dean's name on the screen. I walked out from the restaurant to talk a little bit private."You're in Greece huh? Honeymoon?" He asked in a sarcastic tone."Yeah.""I got some interesting information but.. hold on." He said and I couldn't help but wonder what his interesting information was. Dean is always like that, unexpected."I think your wife just touched your card." This was his idea. That our access card really act like a GPS that you put on your cheating boyfriend/girlfriend. I turned to Lana and I did put my wallet in front of her. Maybe she's just curious."You need to watch out." He warned.

Adrian Nielsen"You can't do this." I said to Dean as he ended the call with Phoenix. Dean got the news that Alester Castroff died pretty quickly and he immediately knew that Phoenix will know about it through Lana."Lana needs him and this is not the right time for you to pull him here." I got up from my seat and Dean ignored me. I couldn't say anything at this point because Dean is pretty much stubborn.Dean doesn't want to lose Phoenix just because he's starting to get whipped. He knew Phoenix needed someone like Lana but he decided to do the opposite. I got out from the main room to walk out waiting for Dean's team to bring Phoenix here.My phone rang and it's Phoenix. "I need your help." He said the second I picked up the phone. I found myself looking at the b
