Claude held out a spoonful of food to Catalina's closed mouth.

"You really don't have to do this. I can do it myself" Catalina said.

"Open your mouth." Claude did not hear Catalina.

"Discovering haul. I'll eat by myself. No need to be fed. Really ... I'm fine."

"Cat .. You can keep arguing with me. But Marylin was sleeping there. Our voices will wake him up. He didn't sleep all night because he took care of you. It's a pity that he woke up because we were noisy." Claude's words made Catalina's eyes turn to another part of the room where her brother was sleeping very well. He locked his mouth.

"Smart. Come on, now open your mouth."

Catalina opened her mouth and felt a little embarrassed that she was fed like a child.

Claude continued to bribe until the food on the plate ran out. He smiled, "you'll heal faster if you act like that."

Catalina flicked her lips, then her eyes looked at her blanket-covered legs.

"When am I going home?" tanyakanya.

"Still a long time, dear Catty. Until the doctor allows. Enjoy your time here."

"But I want to see Leon ...."

Claude who had just risen up continued his steps putting Catalina's plate on the table. He answered without turning.

"Maybe tomorrow, Cat. I'll go home and work on it. Tonight we all can't do anything. I'm waiting for some good news from Vincent."

Catalina straightened her body on the bed when she heard Vincent's name.

"That's my question, how did you find me?"

Claude's eyes glanced at the sleeping Marylin. He decided he wasn't going to tell Catty. Not until he knows what Alrico Lucca's intentions are. Catalina will become very worried, maybe even feel guilty because she is the one who caused her brother to be bound by a contract with Alrico.

"Vincent is now in the building where the criminal seized you. He'll finish what he was supposed to do ten years ago ...."

"Vincent will face the criminal? You sure you're not gonna ask the police for help?" Catalina sounded worried. He concludes Vincent found the building where the criminal had seized him.

Claude took a deep breath, his eyes glaring out through Catty's treatment room window.

"No, Catty. Vincent knows your kidnapper. He should have died ten years ago, so that he could not return to spread evil and revenge on the Bernard family. That guy even kidnapped you, which has nothing to do with his past."

"You know the villain?"

"Yes ..he was the one who shot my mother ...."

Catalina covered her mouth with a palm, her eyes widened in surprise.

"The guy said he wanted to trade me for Joanna." Catalina whispered softly.

"Yes ..he wanted Joanna dead, probably torturing her first before taking her life. It was to avenge Vincent."

Claude turned his head, seeing Catalina massaging her temples with a frown. He approached and pulled the pillow that supported Catalina.

"Cat .. You should lie down. Don't think much, you'll be safe here, you'll have to rest."

"Yoana ... where?" he asked, Claude's words had made him worry about the woman.

"He's fine. He's not exchanged for you. We found you with the help of a colleague. He's at home looking after Leon, so calm down."

"Thank God." Catalina tilted her dizzy head on the pillow. He glanced again at the sleeping Marylin, a smile rising on Catalina's lips, making Claude take a glance.

"Mary must be so tired."

Claude was silent. In her heart she wondered what Catalina would do if she knew it was her sister who was being exchanged to save her as quickly as possible. Although not exchanged for Rodrigo. Rather than a man whose intentions are highly questionable, the mysterious Alrico Lucca.

The increasingly dense darkness began to creep up. With eyes on him, Vincent gazes into the front of the building where Rodrigo lives.He waits in the car, his belief saying his old enemy will return when the night has come.

The communication device in his ear rang, but only an indistinct voice as if someone across there was fiddling with the object in their ear.

"What's Blaird?"

The sound of laughter sounded.

"No one, Vince. I'm just eating."

"What are you eating?"

"Otherwise? You only provide bread and water. You should have taken me to a French restaurant."

Vincent was heard snorting, "be patient Blaird. We all eat bread. I think it's midnight, or maybe it's past, that jerk's just coming back."

"Yes .. sure. Leave a place for my bullets in his body" Blaird chuckled.

"of course. I don't mind sharing."

Early in the day, after waiting patiently, Vincent finally saw Rodrigo's torso. The man was wearing a black coat and was carrying a canvas bag.

"Blaird .. The hunt is coming" whispered Vincent.

"I'm ready, Vincent."

Vincent sees Rodrigo entering the building and begins to climb upstairs to where his room is located. Moments later, Yoana's phone in Vincent's coat pocket vibrated. Vincent picked up and stared with a grin when he saw Catalina's name on the screen. Of course it was Rod. He got out of the car and followed Rod upstairs.

"Hello ...."

"Oh, Vincent! Where's that little beauty? I wish he was the first one to hear his voice."

"Sit's Rod." Vincent listened to Rodrigo's rant.

"Alright, Vincent. Straight away. Tomorrow morning at nine. One hundred meters from Yellow Land public cemetery. Catalina would have been there if I had seen Yoana Bernard coming."

Then the phone died. Vincent heard a voice on his communication device moments later.

"He's going in Vince. You better hurry up if you want to party." Blaird watched from his sniper rifle telescope.

"Ah, it's a pity that you missed this .. he ransacked his rented room. Well ... well ... You lost your prisoner Rodrigo? I think he just yelled, you hear Vincent?" blair said again.

"No."

"No wonder .. the room is soundproof."

"I'm on his doorstep, Blaird," Vincent said through his communication device

"Tap it then ...."

Vincent knocks on the door, a gun in his hand.

"Ready, Vince. Bajing** it just picked up the gun .. he's coming at you."

Vincent smiled at Blaird's voice, then the door opened, Ridrigo widened in surprise and immediately raised the gun in his hand. But Vincent was ready and shot the wrist until the weapon bounced and landed far on the corner floor of the room.

Not yet had Rodrigo moved, Vincent had attacked again. A kick to Rodrigo's stomach that made him float hit the only sofa in the room.

Rod got up, there was no choice but to go head to head with Vincent. The weapon he had was in the next room, where his prisoner was gone. Furious, Rod realizes Vincent is one step faster. His captive has been taken away, even now he who is visited and threatened will really die this time.

The sound of gunfire reverberated, this time Vincent shot both legs of Rodrigo until the man immediately sat down, slumped to the floor in front of Vincent.

"From the beginning you haven't changed. You're too weak to go head-to-head, you don't have the ability to fight at close range."

Vincent's gun was raised, right into Rodrigo's head between his two eyes. Rodrigo's laughter echoes.

"You're gonna fight fair with me, aren't you? I don't have a gun, let's play .. Put down your gun and I'll serve you a direct fight, anyway ... What's the fear of the man whose legs you've already shot at," said Rod .

Vincent grinned, "You forgot Rod .. I'm from the same street as you. I don't know what the word fair means. All I know is, you must be eliminated! The job I was supposed to finish ten years ago."

vincent stared intently, his scarred face turning white, adding to the cruel and terrible impression. Rod was just about to move pouncing when the sound of bullets rippled. As soon as the man's body crashed, Vincent did not stop until the bullet ran through Rodrigo's head and chest.

"Haishhhh .. when you promised to leave a part for my bullet." Blaird's voice was heard on Vincent's communication device. Vincent knew his friend was watching everything from the building where he was lurking.

"Of course, Blaird. Come down and come here with your men. Clean this up. I left the body for you."

Vincent heard Blaird snorting.

"You owe me French cuisine, high-end fancy restaurants" Blaird said.

"Anything ... Just tell me when you want to eat." Vincent closed the door, then stepped away from the place.

"For a month" added Blaird.

"Whatever. Hope you're not bored" Vincent said with a small laugh. He arrived outside the building, staring at the dark sky and breathing free air.

Then he stared at the parked car across the building, rushing towards 6sana as Yoana's face flashed across his head.

Vincent was just about to make his move, as the figures of several men dressed in black walked into the building he had just left.

He removed the communication device attached to his ear and began to speed with a light heart, as if a load of the past had been lifted off his shoulder.

"Your killer is finally dead, Alissia. I hope now, there will be no more disturbing your daughter .. I will always keep my promise ...." Vincent whispered as the roar of his black car split the silence of the night.
