Is this destiny?

Chapter 2112 - Entering The Vault

~ France ~

Sarah and Aiden are on Highway A1, speeding away from Paris.

Sarah stared intently at Aiden who was driving the elegant black car with his left hand on the steering wheel and his right one was holding her tightly.

Aiden double-checked the rearview mirror and side mirrors before taking the exit and leaving the highway.

He shot her a side-glance and his already smiling lips curved up even more.

"Impatient?"

"For you? Always…", Sarah purred, and Aiden felt the pressure in his groin increasing.

Aiden glanced at the rearview mirror again and stopped the car under a tree.

"Well, the wait is over…", Aiden said with a devilish smile and wiggled his eyebrows while leaning toward Sarah.

"Wait, wait…", Sarah placed her hands on his chest. "With the pregnancy and stuff, I'm not sure that this is a good idea."

Aiden couldn't believe it. She was willing just a few minutes ago! Ah, he knew that he was driving too long, but considering that they just messed with five very powerful people, Aiden wanted to make sure they are not followed. He drove through Paris and took several detours, and then he was looking for a place that provides privacy. Well, kind of privacy.

He puffed his cheeks with a long dejected exhale and was about to start the car when Sarah put her hand over his.

"I meant that the front seat is not a good idea. The back seat seems cozy…"

Aiden narrowed his eyes at Sarah, pretending that he is angry. "Why didn't you say so right away?"

Sarah giggled and slipped out of the car in order to move to the back seat.

She was surprised that he was already in the back, waiting for her with a smug smile plastered on his face, loosening his necktie, and sitting in a relaxed posture, like he was always there.

Sarah realized that he squeezed between the front seats. "You are resourceful."

"When it comes to you, I will do anything…", Aiden spoke in a deep sexy voice that made Sarah's insides tremble.

"Smooth talker…", Sarah whispered as Aiden pulled her closer without breaking eye contact.

Aiden's hand landed on Sarah's knee and traveled higher, and he loved that she was wearing a dress.

~ Germany, Berlin ~

Albert and Rance made their way down the dark hallway that leads toward the vault which belongs to the Council.

They didn't turn on the lights because they didn't want to alert anyone of their presence.

It's not that many people know about this place, but considering that the Council was just disbanded, there is a chance that other members of the Council will get the same idea.

What is Albert's and Rance's plan? They want to get their hands on the valuables stored in the vault ahead of them, and restart their lives. Anything can be bought with enough money, and each of the vaults had an enormous amount of valuables.

Both Albert and Rance were carrying two empty duffel bags, and they planned to take as much as they can.

Albert and Rance reached a massive metallic door that had two openings.

"This is it!", Albert said in an excited whisper and lowered his two duffel bags on the floor while reaching for his medallion.

Rance gave a small nod and he and Albert placed their medallions in the openings. After a second, there was a sound of a mechanism clinking and the door popped open along the middle.

Albert grinned and pulled the door completely open.

"No…", Rance said in disbelief when he and Albert found themselves in a massive room that was completely empty.

What happened with all the cash and bars of 24k gold, diamonds, priceless artwork, property deeds, stocks, bonds, and… it's all gone!

'THUD!'

The sound of Albert falling on his knees was unusually loud in the otherwise silent vault.

"Who did this?", Rance squeaked. It was difficult to collect enough strength to speak properly.

Albert let out a hollow laugh. "What do you think?"

~ France, the Chateau ~

Michael, Oni, Nala, Haru, Ron, and Zula were in the planning room.

The six of them returned from their missions and were waiting for Sarah and Aiden.

The table surface was covered with papers. Those are reports from the missions to empty three vaults that belong to the Council.

They found too many things, and they were pleased with their decision to bring extra manpower.

Everything that the three teams brought is in the underground warehouse. It will be rearranged once Sarah and Aiden inspect it.

Before sending teams to this mission, Sarah asked Jarred about how to access the vaults and Jarred told her that two medallions are necessary to open the door. Jarred explained that the vaults have security mechanisms and that if someone tries to open them forcibly, they will melt. Also, there are security cameras, and… he had no idea that Sarah was planning to rob them. He will find about it, eventually.

When she heard that two medallions are needed, Sarah thought to ask Jarred or Suvedini for their medallion (at least temporary, so that Felix can make copies), but then they found the eight-point star one that belonged to Akter, and they made copies of that one.

Each team went with two medallions (Sarah's and Aiden's), so they were able to loot three vaults simultaneously.

There was no need for forcing their way in, and disabling electronic security was a breeze.

Everyone watched Sarah's and Aiden's performance over the live stream, and they were pleased with how it turned out.

Sarah promised them a few days off in Paris, and Michael, Oni, Nala, Haru, Ron, and Zula were eager for the couple to return so that they can plan their time in Paris.

"Shouldn't Aiden and Sarah be back by now?", Michael asked with a frown while looking at the time.

Haru agreed. "Yeah. Even if they stopped for coffee, this is too much."

"If they stopped anywhere, they would let us know.", Zula said. "They know that we are waiting for them."

"Don't panic. I'm sure they are fine. Before you call them, give me a second to tap into their GPS. They could be stuck in traffic or right around the corner…", Oni spoke while typing on her laptop.

Everyone focused on the big screen that was suspended on the wall. It was showing what's on Oni's laptop.

"Why is their car stuck on the sideroad?", Ron mumbled, and everyone heard him.

The car was about ten minutes out of Paris, on a side road which branches from the highway they were supposed to take while returning to the Chateau.

Haru swiftly got his phone, and Nala placed her hand over his, preventing him from making a call.

"I know that you want to check on them, but calling might be dangerous.", Nala said. "If they are kidnapped or hiding, and you call, it will make it worse."

Michael agreed with Nala. It could be dangerous to make a call, but he had to do something. "Alright. I will take a helicopter and go there to check…"

"I will go with you!", Ron volunteered, and Haru was on his feet as well.
