Chapter 95
Edna
"You did a good job running this theater troupe with the rest of the bosses here. Congratulations once again." Madam Tayo said.
Boss snake smiled and replied. I didn't focus on what he said.
Madam Tayo continued, "I came to you today to ask for a favor. One of the prostitutesnoveldrama
in my brothel escaped and I am doing all I can to find her."
This time, I didn't skip boss snake.
Boss snake responded, "I haven't seen any prostitutes around. I might not be of help in this matter."
"You can be of help. In fact, you are indispensable help. There is a woman called Morgan in your theater troupe. She has the same figure as the person I am looking for." Madam Tayo said.
The smile on boss snake's face became fainter, "I don't understand what you mean. Having the same figure doesn't prove anything."
"I know." Madam Tayo nodded, "I just feel like something is fishy. Firstly, Morgan has the same figure as the lady I am trying to find. Secondly, I found the clothes of the lady that escaped from my brothel in an alley. Morgan had visited the alley before. Having the same body can be a coincidence. After another suspicious point is added, it cease to be coincidental. It is now intentional."
"I don't think Morgan is who you are looking for. What do you want to do now?" Boss snake asked.
"I just need your permission to check Morgan's ankle. When that prostitute arrived at my brothel, I cuffed her with an anklet. This piece of jewelry is very special. I am the only person that can remove it in a legitimate way." There was a fatigued expression on Madam Tayo's face.
Boss snake listened intently.
"If my calculations run properly, she would have not found a way to get it off her yet. Instead of arguing here, let the anklet prove everything. If there is an anklet similar to the one I used on the escaped prostitute on Morgan's feet, that shows she is who I am looking for and she found a way to infiltrate your territory without your notice." Madam Tayo said.
I could understand why Madam Tayo was being so aggressive with the search for me. The stakes were too high. Still, I hated it.
The promises I made to her when I just arrived at the brothel flashed in front of my mind eye.
She knew that Killian would torture her within an inch of her life once I get back to his side. He would make her regret her decision to keep me totally. She was going all out to find me.
Unfortunately for me-fortunately for her, she was smart.
I looked at my foot. Madam Tayo was very right. I didn't have a way to remove the anklet right now.
Her truck was obvious too. She used her last few words to goad boss snake.
She was telling him indirectly that he and the other bosses of the theater troupe were incompetent to let someone sneak in using another person's identity if the anklet was found on my leg.
My heart banged against my chest like there was no tomorrow.
I would not let Madam Tayo check anything. The pretending gig would be up once my skirt was lifted.
I have to leave this place as soon as possible. My breathes were coming out heavily. I was thankful that I came back to check on Madam Tayo.
If I didn't do this, I would have been caught off-guard. Madam Tayo would just capture me like a turtle.
Without even looking, I knew boss snake would agree to Madam Tayo's proposal.
Even with this realization, there was a strand of hope within me. Things might turn out differently.
I looked at him and read his lips.

After his lips stopped moving, My feet moved. I did not wait to hear any other information or clues. I went back to the backstage area.
Fortunately, Angelo was still there.
Sweat beaded on my forehead before sliding downwards. Mentally, it felt like I was getting roasted over an open fire.
The moment Angelo saw me, his long legs closed the distance between us.
"What is wrong with you, Morgan? You are sweaty and panicked." Angelo asked in
concern.
I grabbed his hand. My hand was cold and it was also shaking.
The warmth of Angelo's palm came as a surprise.
"Angelo, you have to help me. I am in deep trouble." I sputtered.
"What is wrong? Speak quickly." Angelo prompted.
"You know that anklet I told you about?" I reminded, "Madam Tayo asked boss snake
to check my ankle. This anklet would doom me to hell. Can you tell me the number
and current location of your friend? I want to remove this anklet as soon as possible." I said.
"What do you want to d?" Angelo's face changed.
"I want to leave. I can't stay here anymore. The people boss snake sent to get me would soon arrive. We can't waste any more time." I spoke.
"Morgan, do you know what you are doing? If you run away now, your crime is basically carved in stone. Nothing you do or say in the future would absolve you of this crime. Even if you appear without the anklet in the future, you would still not be believed completely." Angelo warned.

I nodded rapidly, "I know. What is at stake here isn't something I can afford to lose. Running away is better than staying behind. I don't want to get caught."
"Understandable. My friend has different names. I call him Kim sometimes. His number is 0123489, it had been a few days since we last spoke and the location he told me then was in the city we were supposed to go after finishing this show. The name of the city is Germane." Angelo said.
"Thank you so much. I really appreciate your efforts and help. I won't forget this favor." I promised.
I didn't waste any more time and I left the area the show was being held in. Before leaving, I tried my best to burn the number and location Angelo gave me into my brain.
There was no need to go back to the dormitory building. The things in that dumb room were all dispensable. I would not trade my life for mundane things like that.
Thankfully, the security in this temporary home of the theater troupe wasn't too strict. Besides, the guards were familiar with me.
I left the theater troupe successfully.
Still, I knew things weren't finished.
I was basically a fugitive right now. It was a hard pill to swallow. I don't have an identity
in this city and I was completely in the bad sides of three huge organizations. Things
weren't looking good for me.
I just have to find a way to leave this city and I would be safe.
Leaving this place would obviously be like ascending to heaven.
It was very clear that things would be extremely hard from here onwards. With a
hound like Madam Tayo on the enemy's side, the level of this situation went directly to hell mode.
Madam Tayo would obviously not let me slip away from her fingers again.
Gosh!
