Chapter 423 - At last he got his surprise....
After Scott was called to base by Iris, Jean started preparing the surprise. And she didn't want anyone to help her…..it should be just her doing wholeheartedly for him.
Working hard for almost four to five hours Jean decorated everything as she decided and got ready. She wore Scott's favorite lilac strap nightdress and she knows that it will be the last day of her favorite night gown. Poor thing…..but she must sacrifice it.
Chuckling cheekily she turned off every existing light in their house and went inside the room which will be his last destination if he follow her clues properly.
....
Scott who completed discussing with both Iris and Jeff decided to go back to home.
But however Mia who just finished her briefings in main base decided to talk to Scott.
Perhaps one can think it as a simple revenge on Jean who created a imaginary wedding and boyfriend just to give a small excuse to Scott. How dare Jean say that she(Mia) is getting married and that is the reason she is happy.
When clearly she just accepted her boyfriend a week back…..
"Scott your wife is trying to prank you again. Don't believe her all right….if you do then you are a fool. That is my last stage bet with her. Please help me to win." Mia asked.
Scott couldn't help but feel sorry for her. She have consecutively lost four battles of 'stupid bets' to Jean.
"Sure Mia" Scott promised and bided his goodbye to everyone.
"You know what Mi, this is too unfair. You are making things difficult to my sister." Jeff complained to his 'soon to be
fiancée'(according to their families opinion).
"Haha….Jeffy. Let her, she like everything to be complex" Mia laughed.
"Well, she do actually" Iris laughed and Mia winked.
Jeff shook his head with a small smile plastered on his lips. This is so rare that his 'real fiancée, the love of his life' and the 'fiancée, his family decided' are getting along too well.
He sighed. He will have a long way to convince his family. Because Iris has a military background while his grandfather is totally opposite to it.
....
Scott reached their home and looked around with amus.e.m.e.nt. His wifey, what the hell did she plan.
One time she will be so worried and will stress herself to this extend and she will stick to bed for almost half day. But sometimes she will act almost like a naughty teenager with her pranks and betting.
Sighing and chuckling he tried to switch the light but in vain. Trying for another two to three times he checked the main power switch.
As it is turned down he flipped it on but the light worked only to the main living room.
He looked confusingly and went into the only 'lighted' room. It has two stairs leading to east wing and west wing of the house. The middle region between it has the huge glass frame.
As he looked at the rainbow colors emanating from it he chuckled and approached it. There is a stick notes attached to it.
It is a question and two options.
'The color of the watch I wore when you saw me for first time?'
If it is black take west stairs.
If it is green take east stairs.
Scott laughed and took east stairs. He reached the first floor when he noticed other sticky note on the wall separating the floor into two sections.
'What is the book I was reading when you first pecked my cheek?'
If it is book of Dan Brown go to second floor.
If it is our management book by Joe Knight go to third floor.
If it is the management book by Warren Bennis go to fourth floor.
Scott thought for some seconds and instantly remembered the book she dropped on to floor when he pecked her all in sudden for the first time.
Chuckling he rushed up to fourth floor. Which is the floor they left to use for future.
Walking to the huge L shaped couch he noticed the gift box and it is locked
After taking it into his hand he noticed the chit under the box.
He opened it and shook his head sideways. She likes to make everything complicated and it is because a person will feel happy after working hard to find something rather than when compared to acquiring it without even spilling a single drop of sweat.
'The nail polish I applied to my nails when we made love for first time?'
Scott smacked his head and shook his head. DAMN! How can he remember it? His whole attention is on her dress and glowing face. Later he switched off the light and how will he be able to see it.
Wrecking his brain he reminisced that time second to second.
It is lilac color...his favorite but the mismatched color to the dress she wore that day.
As the box is number lock he used the code language to decipher the alphabetical name into number form.
First time it failed and he remembered the method she reached him. It is a puzzle game her father taught her.
This time it opened and thank god that he didn't find any questions or puzzles but a key to the room.
There are totally six empty rooms and he started trying unlocking them.
At last the final sixth door clicked open and he wiped away his imaginary sweat from his forehead and entered the room. Walking to the side wall he turned on the light.
His lips twitched looking at balloons which are too high to reach. He jumped and took one balloon into his hands and turned it around.
His face morphed into shock and his hands and body froze. There is a photo pasted on it.
It have a black background with a pea size white dot in middle of it.
A ULTRA SOUND REPORT.
