Chapter Five


When Seto and Roland followed Mr. McGovern to his Office for the meeting, Seto looked at Roland and whispered, “Before we leave I’m going to get to the bottom of this whole business of why Joey was told his sister died in child birth.”

Mr. McGovern showed them into the Office and said, “Please sit down gentlemen, now the reason I asked for this meeting is, my business has been faltering ever since I returned from America and I can’t figure out why.

So I ask you here to see if you can help me, of course I’ll pay whatever you think that your time is worth, money is no object.”

As Seto and Roland sat there listening to what this man was saying, Seto thought to himself, “Before we’re through here, I swear that you’ll find out why your company is faltering and if I don’t get the answers I’m looking for, your company will be mine.”

Then Roland said, “We’ll need access to you Computer files all of them, as well as all your Company books, oh and another thing we‘ll need, is an secure outside line in case I have to call our Company for any extra help.”
McGovern then said, “Done, all I ask is that you don’t open any files on my family.” Seto then said, “Mr. McGovern, no one is above suspicion, no one, that means you and your family.”

Roland then said, “One more thing, were you ever married before, or do you have any illegitimate children that you know of?” McGovern took offense to what Roland was asking, he said, “No I was never married before and I assure you that there are no illegitimate children.”

Roland apologized to Mr. McGovern and said, “I’m sorry for being so crass, but I’ve learned from experience that the last person you expect to be the one doing wrong is usually a distraught wife or a very angry child.”

Mr. McGovern said, “I understand, but you have to understand that I will not allow my wife and step-daughter to be questioned.” Seto said, “We understand, but still I’m going to be looking at everyone inside your Company, also your family to try to find out whom this person is.”

Mr. McGovern then said, “I’ll be going now, everything you’ve asked for will be brought down here before the day is over, and again I want to thank both of you for coming here to see if you can help me.”

When McGovern left, Seto said, “I’m going to call Solomon Motou and let him know that we’ve found Joey’s sister, maybe he can help when I’ve got to tell Joey when we get back home.”

Roland nodded that he understood, and while Seto was calling Solomon, the things that they had requested were brought to the Office. “Now we can begin searching.” Roland said. Seto took out his cell phone and dialed the Game Shop.

Solomon answered the phone, “Game Shop, my I help you?” Seto said, “Solomon its Seto, Roland and I are in Germany meeting with a man and we discovered something that really shook the hell out of me.”

Solomon asked, “What did you find?” Seto said, “Serenity isn’t dead, she’s alive and living here in Germany with her mother and the man that we’re meeting with.”

Solomon nearly dropped the phone when he heard what Seto said, “What in the hell is going on, why would Joey’s mom tell me that Serenity died?” Seto then said, “Before this meeting is over I’m going to know, the reason I’m calling is how in the hell do I tell Joey about his sister?”

Solomon said, “Before you say anything to Joseph, make certain that his sister has been drugged and that she knows who she really is, then and only then please bring him here before you tell him.” Seto then said, “Thanks for talking to me and I’ll do what you’ve asked.”

Seto hung up the phone, Roland looked at him, Seto told him what Solomon asked, and Roland said, “That’s a really good idea, we have to figure out a way to get Serenity alone, and then we have to carefully ask her about what she remembers last.”

Seto then said, “We might as well get started on why we’re here, lets start by looking over the information on this Computer.” They spent the rest of the day searching for anything that could help them prove who was the one who was trying to take down this Company.

By the time, it got dark outside, they still hadn’t come up with any answers, but they did have a few good clues, Roland said, “Let’s stop for now, we need to get back to the hotel and get some dinner and then we both need to get some rest.”

At the home of Chester McGovern, his wife asked, “Have you hired someone to help find out who is trying to break your Company?”

Chester smiled and said, “Yes, they both got here today and right now their searching through the Computer files and I hope that soon they’ll be able to tell me who it is.”

Mary asked him, “Who are they, what’s their names?” Chester said, “Right now that isn’t anything that I want to talk about, not until they have some proof for me, for now lets just say that they are two of the best men for the job, and leave it at that, shall we.”

Serenity didn’t like to see her mom act like this, she thought to herself; she acted like this the day that my baby died, what is she hiding? I have to find out what it is. Serenity was bound to discover what her mother was hiding and just maybe these men that Chester hired might be able to help, she was going to try to talk to them.

When Seto and Roland got back to the Hotel, they went up to their rooms and after taking a shower, Roland called for room service and they ordered dinner. While they were waiting for their food to arrive, Seto called the Manor and when Helga answered, he said, “Helga, can I please talk to Joey?”

Helga smiled when she heard Seto’s voice and she said, “Alright I’ll go get him, but first why didn’t you or Roland call and lets us know that you got their safely?”

Seto apologized and she said, “Just a minute, then Seto heard Joey’s voice and tears filled his eyes as he said, “God, I wish I was there to hold you, I miss your terribly.” Joey was teary eyed too, as he said, “We wish that you were here too, both Amber and I miss you. How’s it going there?”

Seto told him, “Today we met with the man who hired us, it seems that someone is trying to take down his Company, and it’s our job to find out who it is.” Joey then said, “It’s not dangerous is it?” Seto smiled as he heard the worry in Joey’s voice and he said, “No, it’s not dangerous. We just have to go through the Company Computer files and it’s going to take us a few days to do that.

Roland says hi, and he wants you to tell Helga and Mokie that we miss them and that we’ll be home as soon as we can.” Joey smiled and said, “I’ll tell them, Seto, I love you.”

Seto then said, “I love you and Amber with all my heart, listen I’ve got to go, our dinner has just arrived, I’ll call again tomorrow.”

Joey didn’t want to hang up the phone, he wanted to go on talking to Seto, but then he heard the dial tone and hung the phone up, then he walked over to where Amber was and he picked her up and said, “Seto sends you and me all his love.”

Roland signed the tab for dinner and after the man left, he turned to Seto and said, “How’s everyone back home?” Seto wiped the tears from his eyes as he said, “They all miss us, especially little Amber, god I miss her and Joey.

What the hell is it going to do to Joey when he finds out that his sister is alive and if she wants her daughter back, what’s it going to do to him?”

Seto went over and sat down at the table across from Roland and as they started eating, Roland said, “We really have to find out who is behind this Company’s problems then we can concentrate on figuring out if Serenity really doesn’t know that her daughter is alive and that her brother has been raising her.”
