He woke Gary up at 8am and told him he needed to go get cleaned up and check on his mom. Gary said he felt great and needed to get back to work. Matthew went back to his room, cleaned up and put on clean clothes. He then went to see if everyone was at breakfast.
He came into breakfast and kissed his Mom. Hunter was trying to standing up in her high chair with her arms out and saying Daddy, daddy. Matthew took her out of her high chair with hugs and kisses. Matthew said how’s my girl. Hunter kissed him back on the cheek. He sat down in a chair and put her on his lap. Matthew said to her what are we eating today? Just then one of the people sat a protein drink in front of him. Matthew turned to the guy and said, “Could you also bring me 2 eggs over easy, toast, bacon, coffee and orange juice?” The person responded sure, no problem. Matthew started drinking his smoothie and Hunter wanted it again. So he pleased her by putting his finger on the straw and taking it out of the cup like before. He look at his mom and she was just looking at them. He picked up his mom’s hand and kissed it. Love you Mom said Matthew. Mom smiled and started eating her breakfast. He could see she was having a really hard time with everything. He thought how selfish he had been when they were suffering too. He thought I am going to get this guy and get my wife back. When his breakfast came Hunter wanted it, she didn’t want hers. He had such at good time at breakfast that he actually forgot about his hurt for a moment. Hunter had so much fun with the bacon. Matthew had a difficult time moving his plate out of Hunter’s reach because she wanted to put her hands in his eggs and being able to get to his eggs to eat. He didn’t mind because he was really enjoying his time with her. Gary called and said his friend had a folder for him that he requested and wanted to know where to send it. Matthew said to have him send it to him and forward it to my laptop. Matthew asked if his friend had a name and he said Brack22. Matthew said what is the 22 for. Gary responded with, he won some contest 22 times. Matthew said oh, I see. I am almost finished with breakfast and then I will go see if I got it. Matthew finished breakfast. Gave Hunter back to Cindy. Hunter wasn’t happy about that. He kisses his mom on the cheek and said if you need to talk just call me I am near by.
He went to his office and opened his lap top and started looking at the file. It was quite extensive. On a couple of pages it had some confidential stamps and CIA stamps. He thought this must have come from the CIA. It started out from the day ICE was born covering everything from food he like to eat and up to today. It started his group was in South Africa and got hit. He lot several of his people so he bought this sub to live on. He was born in Russia and was passed Russian military. It said his sub could usually be found near Russia. It told about the jobs he took, how they worked out and why some didn’t. It covered all his family and the man’s background. Matthew called Gary and wanted to know how to pay his friend. Gary said he thought the guy only deals in bitcoin, so he would find out. Matthew told Gary he wanted to hire his friend because he thought Gary need help and he felt this guy would be get to have working for him. Gary was excited and thought that would be get. Matthew told Gary to contact him, find out how to pay him and ask him if he would take a job and come here to work. Gary said this guy is so smart and I could learn so much from him. Gary said he would contact him right away.
According to the file ICE did the best with contracts out of Russia his home country. He wondered if that was where he took Angel. Matthew went to a website in the dark web where you can login and go in a chat room to contact people. Matthew had a friend in Russia and he wanted to know if his friend could help him. He left a message for him. The file said he got the name ICE because if you messed up a mission he would kill you. He found the people who attacked his group in Africa and cut there heads off. Matthew thought that’s what I would do.
Gary called and Brank22 accepted the job and would come as soon as he tied up some loose ends and could all his stuff packed. Gary thanked Matthew said this is so great thankyou. Matthew read some more emails and did some more searching on his laptop. He then went to the gym. It was hard waiting to hear from people. When he exercised it helped him think. Angel had been gone 4 days now. And excising keep his thoughts off the negative side of the situation. He didn’t want to think that she might not be alive. After a couple of hours he sat on the floor against the wall and called Joey wanting to know if they found anything. Joey said they couldn’t find his Mom’s phone to check and she couldn’t remember the last time she had it. Matthew said he had talked to her on the phone several times while she was shopping and told him to check his car very thoroughly. Joey said he didn’t find any bugs yet but he thought some of the peoples phones where not safe so he was getting them new ones. Matthew hung up and shut his eyes for a few minutes. He dosed off. After about an hour Gary called and told Matthew that he had told Brack22 that he was trying to find out how the people who kidnapped Angel knew where she was going to be. He said he would check out our system remotely and see if he could find a way to get in. He just called and said there is a camera feed pictures out of the compound. Matthew said where are the pictures going to? Gary said he doesn’t know yet but helped me find it. It is on your Mom’s patio. Gary said I just sent Joey and Jack over there. Matthew said thanks I will go there right now. He jumped up with a towel around his neck and hurried to his mom’s room. Joey and Jack were just going out the sliding glass door to the patio with some equipment. Matthew watched as Joey when around with equipment on one side and Jack with a flashlight on the other. Then Joey told Jack it was definitely over here somewhere. Jack came over and looked at Joey’s equipment. Jack said your right. They moved in closer to the bushes and Jack moved aside some of the bushes. Finally they found it. Jack grabbed the small camera out with a cord attached to small box with a little antenna. Jack put it in his hand so the lens was face down on his hand and showed it to Matthew. Matthew saw the light blinking on the attached box. He said it must still be working. He slid it across Jacks hand onto his so the lens was now face down. He told Joey and Jack that he wanted them to carefully sweep the patio and surrounding area. Then have mom and everyone else to to the living area and sweep her bathroom, bedroom and dinning area. And then sweep it again. He asked if they had sweep the living area and they said they had. Keep sweeping areas even if your have all ready swept them. Even the kitchen. He said he was going to security with the camera.
Gary was on the computer and phone with Brack22 about the camera. Matthew was on his laptop next to Gary when Joey and Jack came in with Mom’s phone. It had slid under one of the front seats. They had checked it out and wanted to show Matthew it had a bug in it. Finally they were getting to the bottom if what happened. Matthew thanked them and wanted them to go through all the bushes on Mom’s patio and try to figure out how it got there. He all so wanted them to set up a weekly security sweep and phone check. They went off to work on that. Brack22 on the phone ask to talk to Matthew, so Gary handed him the phone. Brack22 said he had asked a women to marry him and she wants to come with him. Matthew asked if they were getting married before they came and he said no. That the only reason they had put it off was because they were both hackers and it might attract attention to them. He thought if they got married there it would not attract attention. Matthew asked if she understood that she would not be able to leave unless he ok’d it. That some people spend their whole life here because it is the only safe place for them. Brack22 said yes. Matthew said where can I send you papers to sign. Brack22 told him where to send the info and he handed the phone back to Gary. Matthew called Carlson head of security and told him what paper work he needed to sent to Brack22 and to add a note he need it back asap. Carlson told him no problem. Carlson sent the paper work and in less then 2 hours he had it back. He notified Matthew that he had it back and it was all in order. Matthew told Carlson to talk to Brack22 about picking them up. He didn’t want any one following to them. Carlson again said no problem and Matthew went back to working with Gary. They were preparing a trap in case the person who put the camera there was still using it. At dinner time Matthew told Joey and Jack to work with Gary until we can get him some help and he went to dinner. He also wanted them to start checking the palm reader on Mom’s door everyday to see who was going in and out.
At dinner he had a great time with Hunter and his Mom. She was starting to fell better. Hunter put her arm’s up and wanted to set on her dad’s lap. A couple of times during the dinner he point at Mom and asked Hunter if she could say grandma. This made his Mom smile. After dinner he kissed Hunter by and went to his room. Took a shower and decided to get in his own bed tonight.
