My Wife Is A Secret Assassin

Chapter 51: No Use



Chapter 51: No Use

"I just met this beautiful woman at the bar, I was with her till now" Chance tried to be as honest with his friends as he feels guilty for hiding so much from them.

"Woohooo" Mia looked excited.

"Nothing happened, I flirted with her and she ignored me" Chance looked sad.

Abigail and Mia's hearts ached seeing him sad, "Ohh, cutie don't be sad, there can rarely be any woman who would not be affected by your charms, so don't worry" The two women tried to console him.

'Cutie?' David scoffed, 'If they had any idea how scary he really is they wouldn't even sit near him'

Jack looked at David and observed his actions, so David composed himself, "I get jealous when Mia is nice to Chance" He lied to cover up for his condescending expressions.

Jack didn't believe his reason but he didn't say anything as he knew no matter what, these two men are not going to tell him whatever truth they are hiding. 

"Thanks girls, you always make me feel better" Chance said as he wanted to stop them from consoling him as at times it gets too much for him.

"By the way what is this commotion?" Mia asked when she looked some people still acting weirdly.

"Oh, apparently some guy died" Chance casually answered.

"What? Why? When? How?" Abigail asked him with worry.

Chance was not surprised by her reaction, fortunately or unfortunately one of his best friends works for NYPD.

Chance always wondered how ironical it is that Abigail is best friends with an assassin and she is not even aware of it.

But he was always careful so he was not bothered about her profession, also he was very confident about himself.

"I don't know much about it, but he died in his room and therefore you might see cops around" Chance honestly shared the information he had.

"Oh, I need to check then" Abigail stood up from her seat.

"Abi, we are on a vacation" Jack tried to say but Abigail quickly left from there, they all knew she is going to the room to get her police ID.

"Dude, she is sincere about her duty, let her be" Chance tried to calm him down but Jack still looked annoyed. 

Then Abigail came back from her room and flashed her ID to the hotel staff and informed them that she is a cop and wants to know what happened. The staff directed to her the Hawaiian police and she went to talk to the cops.

Jack was standing near Abigail and was furiously looking at her, he was helplessly shaking his head, 'There are Hawaiian police, can't she enjoy a vacation' he thought to himself.

Chance too joined him and teased him, "If you guys are getting married and she gets a call about her duties, she will leave you at the altar and will rush back to work" 

Jack heaved a sigh as Chance was indeed right.

Chance then glanced over the room and saw Danger-Ace, surprisingly she was looking at him, he was startled for a moment but then he waved his hand at her, she too lightly smiled at him, waving back her hand.

Chance was surprised as to why Danger-Ace was reacting like this, then he saw she was standing near Abigail and he understood she got an idea of their situation and she already deduced that Abigail is his friend and is therefore acting nice as she wanted to use Abigail's identity as a cop to her own advantage.

'Whatever be the reason, you want to be near me and I'll fulfil your wish' Chance thought to himself and acted like he was very happy and he called her over.

The woman evidently wouldn't let go off a chance like this and she approached them.

"Hey" She formally greeted him and gently smiled.

Chance could see through her acting but he too acted, "Wow, it seems you are in a good mood now"

"Yeah, I am better than before"

"What is happening here?" Jack questioned Chance as he suddenly saw some beautiful woman approach them and talk like they already know each other.

"Oh right, Jack, she is the beautiful woman I met at the bar and" Chance looked at the woman as he had no idea what her name is, he can't introduce her as Danger-Ace so he waited for her to introduce herself.

"I am Samantha" The woman informed him and introduced herself.

Chance really liked her name, "Nice name" he complimented her.

"Thanks" 

"Samantha, this is Jack, a very close friend of mine" Chance formally introduced them.

Just then Abigail who was discussing something with the Hawaiian cops joined them, so Chance introduced her, "And she is Abigail, works with the criminal intelligence department of NYPD"

"Wow, that is awesome" Samantha looked at her with admiration.

Chance's doubt was confirmed she joined them for Abigail.

'What is she trying to do?' Chance wondered when something stuck him, 'Oh the hard drive, maybe that is what she is looking for' 

"Believe me it is not as awesome as it sounds" Jack chimed in looking sulking.

"Jacky, a guy died in this resort, I can't ignore it okay? It is my duty, my job" Abigail tried to explain.

"No Abi, it is not your duty, it is Hawaiian police's duty. There are lot of cops here, we came here on a vacation and we should focus on that."

"But you know me, I can't turn a blind eye to my job"

"This is not your job this is their job" He said pointing at the Hawaiian police, and added, "And you are not the only cop here" Jack was irritated with the fact that here too Abigail is being busy with work.

"Jack, you can't tell me what I should do and what I should not"

"Abi"

Their two friends again started fighting so Chance decided to interrupt them, "Okay enough, you two" he didn't like it when they fought like this and he could see Samantha too was uncomfortable.

"No Chance, let him speak" Abigail looked at Jack and asked him to continue.

"That guy died of a heart attack, so you don't need to bother yourself"

"Don't be so sure" Abigail countered.

"Guys, you are ruining our holiday" David who joined them with his girlfriend Mia, interrupted the two.

"But" Abigail was still agitated but Chance interrupted her.

"But nothing, Samantha, would you like to join us for lunch?" He charmingly asked her.

Mia and Abigail realized she is the woman Chance was talking about earlier so they looked at each other and were trying to control their smiles, Samantha noticed the two women but pretended she did not.

"Umm no, it seems like you guys came here for a holiday, I don't want to interrupt you friends' time" 

"Nonsense, didn't you hear the saying, 'The more the merrier', we would be really glad if you would join us." Mia suggested and Abigail too agreed with her.

Samantha still acted hesitant so the guys too insisted and she agreed.

Chance could see through Samantha's act of pretending like she does not want to join them but in reality, she wanted to. As according to his logic, she would be using Abigail to get her work done, he was very happy that Danger-Ace was acting like the perfect assassin but it seemed like he was happy as she was joining them, he therefore mouthed thanks to his friends to keep up his pretence which Samantha didn't notice.

They all decided to check out the resort before going for lunch.

"So, Samantha, what do you do?" Abigail asked her and Chance paid attention as he wanted to know what fake identity Danger-Ace was using as a shield, he knew his friends were helping him know Samantha better as a partner but they don't know that he was now finding the truth about the fake life of this secret assassin.

"I am a florist in San Diego" Samantha didn't intend to lie as that's why this fake identity was created, unknown to her she was revealing all her truth to Chance about her real and fake life.

"Wow, that's interesting"

Then they asked her a few more questions which she answered as per the records of her, it was generic information, not much of it could anyway help Chance.

Then Samantha too questioned them and found out, they are a group of five friends living in New York.

Chance and David are business partners, Mia has her own boutique shop and Jack works in an ad agency. 

They were always occupied with their busy lives so they took this trip to Hawaii to relax.

Chance was the only single guy in group and therefore his friends wanted to set him up with Samantha and therefore they told her these facts, Chance didn't mind it anyway as far as Samantha does not know that he is Grim Reaper till then any information she has on Chance is of no use for her.
