"He is known as Ryder Flynn. Interestingly enough, he wants me to meet him tomorrow. He wants to possess the company that Itsuki created, which certainly makes me think that he was involved in the death of Itsuki,

" the fake Itsuki pointed out.

"Ryder Flynn? Where does he live?

" The Goddess of Destiny asked, frowning.

"I have his address with me. But I think it would be better if you came with me. He won't know about you, and then you can hear his lies yourself. Or you can go alone?

" Itsuki suggested.

"I'll be coming with you. Just tell me where he is,

" the Goddess of Destiny asked.

"He lives in the United States. I'm going there tomorrow. I'll arrange a ticket for you too,

" Itsuki said.

"No need for tickets,

" Goddess of Destiny said, grabbing the man by his shoulders before she disappeared. The man disappeared with her as well.

She and Itsuki appeared on top of a tall building in the United States of America.

"We are there. Next?

" Goddess of Destiny asked.

"Ah, alright. I was supposed to meet him in his office tomorrow, but I guess we can do it today. I'll just tell him that I was already in America. As for his office, it's...

"

...

Ryder had just reached home after taking an outside trip. He was just about to step out of the car when his phone started ringing.

"Maya, can you tell me who is calling?

" Ryder asked, not bothering to bring his phone out of his pocket. There was no need for him to do it since Alicia was with him.

"It's Itsuki,

" Alicia replied.

"Pick the call and put it on speaker,

" Ryder said.

Alicia followed his commands.

"Hello?

"

"Mr. Ryder, where are you at the moment?

" Itsuki asked, hearing Ryder's voice.

"Why do you want to know about me?

" Ryder asked.

"Actually, I'm in front of your office. Didn't you want to meet? When are you coming?

" Itsuki asked.

"Huh? You're outside my office? How did you get there so fast? Weren't you in Japan when we last talked?

" Ryder asked, surprised.

"I already had a business trip planned for America. And Japan isn't that far either. After getting off the call, I took my pre-planned thoughts. And now I'm here. So come fast, I need to get going. I don't have all day,

" Itsuki let out.

"Fine! Wait there. I'll be there in half an hour,

" Ryder replied before he disconnected the call.

Ryder turned the car around and left the Maxwell Estate once again.

"Maya, I still think it's a bit too odd that he got here so fast. A bit too coincidental that he had another meeting in the city before I even invited him. Can you check if he actually told me the truth?

" Ryder asked Maya.

"It's wrong. He didn't get on any flight. I've been keeping an eye on him as you commanded. He was in his office when you talked to him. Since then, he hadn't left his office,

" Maya replied.

"Is that so? Then is he lying about being outside my office?

" Ryder asked.

"Wrong. He is actually outside your office,

" Maya replied.

"How is that possible? I don't understand it. You said he was actually in his office, and he didn't take any flight. And you say he is in front of my office as well?

" Ryder asked, not understanding.

"Something doesn't add up. It's impossible unless he has some skill which is similar to my world traveling skill,

" he muttered.

"Tell me, how did he get here so fast?

"

"I've sent a video to your phone. You can see what happened yourself,

" Maya explained to Ryder.

Ryder stopped the car on the side of the road before bringing his phone out of his pocket.

He opened the new footage that he just received and started playing it.

As he played the footage, he couldn't help himself as his mouth opened slightly. Not only was he able to see the video, but he was also able to hear the conversation.

He noticed a strange woman appear in front of the fake Itsuki. She claimed that Itsuki was her son.

Hearing that, Ryder understood that she was a goddess who was the Mother of Itsuki. What he was worried about was actually happening.

"This just had to happen now?! Couldn't she have waited for a few days? I planned to have that Fake Itsuki come here with the excuse of buying his company. He would never have gone back after that,

" Ryder muttered, sighing.

He couldn't help but sigh deeply as he heard their conversation. Everything was out. And now that goddess knew that he was behind the disappearance of her son.

What shocked him even more was that the lady disappeared with Itsuki. Ryder knew where the two of them were right now. They were waiting for him in front of his office. It was a Trap.

"They know about me. I need to make sure that Alice and Shu aren't in the Estate. After I don't fall into their trap, they'll certainly come where I live!

" Ryder quickly turned the car around, driving back.

He called Shu.

"Shu, I need you to do something,

" he asked as soon as the call was picked up.

"What do you want me to do?

" Shu asked.

"Just name it.

"

"I want you to take Alice on a Vacation from my side. Just get her to leave the Mansion and the City! Make any excuse you have to! I'm coming back as well. Just think that you don't have much time!' Ryder hastily said.

"Hah? Did something happen again? It's the second time you're asking people to abandon the mansion. Is it again something that guards can't solve?

" Shu asked.

"No amount of guards is ever going to be enough! Just listen to me this one last time,

" Ryder insisted.

"Fine! I'll make some excuses for this vacation. We can take out private jets. I'll tell it to get ready. How does a Vacation of Egypt sound?

" Ryder asked, sighing.

"It's fine. As long as it's far away from the states,

" Ryder let out.

"Good.

"

....

Ryder reached home to find Shu talking to Alicia. He was telling her about a business trip to Egypt, and he wanted to take Alicia and Ryder with her for vacation.

Alicia instantly agreed.

"Ah, you're here as well! We're going to Egypt!

" Alicia informed Ryder.

"Yeah, we are. Let's not delay any longer. The jet is waiting, and everything is ready!

" Ryder affirmed.. He helped Alicia pack her bags.
