“Your brother wasn’t married so he wouldn’t have met the heir to the Murphy family as yet.  The rule is you meet the couple he wasn’t a part of a couple he  was single.”

“So how did they know what the Murphy heir looks like dad?”

“That’s the million dollar question we will all be trying to figure out sweetheart. Derek the airport needs to be monitored. They will try to flee.”

“I'm sending the instructions now sir.  Jamie notes, Is there a way to go through them and see what he was working on before he died?” Ask Derek.

“We haven’t been able to find those son and Danvers doesn’t know where they’re.”

“The houses need to be searched again. Was there any secret passageways or secret bookshelf he could’ve stored his notes?” Ask Derek.

“I’m not sure this house has many secrets. I’ll check while you’re away.”

“Thank you Issac, I don’t know why Jamie would have taken the fake Blume to the other two homes he owed but not this one.”

“What did you just say Derek. He took him to our other homes?”

“Danvers said Jamie took him to the country house and another house.”

“I can’t believe Jamie did that.  What the hell was he thinking?”

“He clearly wasn’t thinking mum so he let his guard down.”

“Stiles, Derek we need to go back to doing things old school. The people that know what you do and what you look like needs to be minimised. We can trust Jordan he’s family he won’t talk but from here on out. No one else will know what we do family or not. The extended family from now on will not know you and Derek as anything but a doctor and a man who works for a security  company or a butcher.”

“Liam, sir I need to be honest I was surprised that Erica and so many other people knew the secret. A lot of them think we work for M15.”

“In mine and Stiles’ dad day Derek no one but our immediate family knew what we did. We headed an organisation no one knew about. My youngest grandson is abroad so Jamie needed to bring someone in to take his place. As governor his word is the law. His dad and I can suggest things to him. It doesn’t mean he will listen. He told India, Jordan and Erica the secret and started using extended family members as his lackey.”

“I never liked that granddad but Erica, India and Jordan have proved very helpful. I’m aware our immediate family is the one who should know the truth only. I’m sorry I need to call Erica and India and let them know we have been compromised.”

Stiles leaves the room and video calls Erica and India. “You know our family thinks we work for a butcher’s boss. Heck I’ve served my mum in the butchers at a branch near her house. Don’t worry only four of us know the truth and I can’t see Derek’s private driver spilling the beans he’s family.  I’ve been to parties where he’s told people he’s a mechanic. He even has his own shop.  I work one day a week for another security firm that has nothing to do with your role. We all work in other businesses where we have had our family members come and visit us. We know what is at stake Stiles. We aren’t fools we are very aware if anything goes wrong our families can be killed.”

“I know all that Erica but someone got close to us just please be careful.”

“Don’t worry we will.”

“India, how’s my in-laws doing?”

“Okay, my people are moving them as we speak. I didn’t know Peter was so well trained.  Your grandfather and father did an amazing job with him. He thinks Lydia isn’t what she says she is.  He doesn’t think she’s a baddie he saw her on camera coming out of Wendy’s home. She took photos and he track her to a deserted house. She met someone there.”

“She could be FBI.”

“That’s his thinking too.”

“Keep me abreast of the situation I have a lot of things to do today. “

“I can only imagine, I will let you go. I also have a lot on my plate as well.”

“Jamie at least had enough sense to know not to bring the idiot here.” Stiles says out loud.

Stiles walks back into the dining room, “I’ve spoken to India and Erica. From now on no one else will know our secret. I use to hate that I couldn’t see where you worked dad. Now I understand why you did what you did.”

“Since the day will be busy I want to have a proper breakfast I probably won’t see you guys till much later.”

“That’s fine honey,” her father pours her a fresh cup of tea.

When breakfast was over Derek is driven to the office. He looks through the female doctor’s phone. No one has called or texted her in a while. He conference call the doctors.  Nothing had changed except more people was getting sick and dying.  The country was on lockdown as were many around the world

“Wait Mrs Rawlings knew about the organisation how did she find out about it. And since Dr Blume isn’t who who say he is could he have brought her on board,” Derek ask himself out loud.

He picks up his phone on his desk, “Erica can you bring me a cup of coffee please.”

“Will do boss.”

He end the call and calls the head of the Murphy family. “Your Grace, says Derek when he hears the familiar voice of Donald Murphy.”

“It’s good to hear from you again son.  Rachel has filled me in on the situation. I would never have sent my people to work with you. I don’t even know where a lot of your buildings are located except for the butchers shop. My son is a doctor he has worked with Stiles for years and she didn’t know his real identity.”
