H.U.R.T
Isabell's?

Bartoli Ortiz was one of the few criminalists in American history to have the guts to openly fight against the authorities.

Bartoli has no special headquarters. They also have no problem with the mafia. They avoid problems from criminals. All criminals must be at peace with each other. That's principle. Bartoli's only problem is with the officers.

The crimes that have been committed are not just blatantly robbing a big bank, Bartoli will not hesitate to kill anyone who stands in his way. Including middle-aged women who have been victims. Bartoli shot the woman mercilessly. There was no pity in his heart as if his heart was made of stone.

Bartoli is also a drug smuggler. Always moving from one place to another. Every crime he committed, always deliberately left a trail. Whether it's a fingerprint or anything that can be instantly recognized by the authorities. Only, the only photo that was pocketed by the apparatus was his face when he was young.

Bartoli and her father, Fernandez, have always worked together to commit crimes. Then came the issue that the two were not in line anymore and in the end Bartoli killed her own father for whatever reason. Only God and Bartoli know.

"So you don't know that guy's face?"

"I've said that I don't know him specifically." Steve responds to Austin's seemingly unsatisfied question with his explanation of Bartoli's sudden rise to fame in their family.

"Your information doesn't help at all."

Steve cleared his throat, "Do you want me to tell you something?"

"If what you're about to tell has nothing to do with Bartoli, just shut the fuck up" Austin said fiercely.

If Bartoli's principle does not want to nudge other criminals, then why does Bartoli harass them. This is still a big question mark in Austin's mind.

"Bartoli has a wife."

"There's nothing wrong with having a wife. Criminals were also humans who needed the warmth of the bed," Austin responded lazily.

Steve looked at Darren, waiting for the man's reaction to what he said and what Austin said.

"I agree with Austin."

Steve was clucking at the answer of his brother-in-law. "Said she also has a child. In the past, his wife always participated in every action they did. But as Fernandez disappeared, his wife also disappeared."

"What about their children?" Darren asked, starting to get curious.

"Well, there it is. I don't know."

If Darren could move his hand, he would willingly throw a bogeman into his brother-in-law's face. Now he felt the same frustration that Austin felt.

"If you know the whereabouts of his son, then you'll get to Bartoli," Steve pointed indifferently at the shoulder.

"Austin, let me beat this motherfucker up" Darren really started to get upset. How could they know Bartoli's son if Bartoli's face alone they didn't know what it was like.

Steve chuckled not feeling if he said something wrong. "I'll only give you a solution if you're curious who Bartoli is. Bartoli's DNA is still in the FBI."

"How can Bartoli's DNA be there while she's never been captured?"

"Her blood splashes on the weapon left behind when he was about to throw a boom raft that turned out to explode before he could throw it."

"What's the importance of Bartoli's DNA if we don't have a picture of who her child is. You want us to do a mass DNA test? You think this country belongs to you?"

Steve's laughter returned to look at the annoyance on Austin's face. He was really amused by the reaction of his two brothers-in-law.

"Why is he laughing so much? I prefer it when he's a polar bear" Darren took a deep breath.

"Lexi we managed to melt it down."

"Who do you think the sniper's target is, Dude?" Austin asked. He had prepared mentally if the answer Steve gave was beyond prediction.

"You."

It turns out Austin wasn't really mentally prepared. The man was instantly emotional and kicked Steve's leg right in his shin.

"To eliminate an Isabell who is not a martial artist and two small children, there is no need for a sniper" Steve explained.

Is correct. Why don't they think about it. Austin and Darren stared at each other. That means two bullets were meant to target both of them.

"Only the question is, which one of Isabell and the two little ones do they want?"

"Let's narrow this problem down. Get rid of the little ones we didn't know before you met on the beach. What if what they're after is Isabell?"

Steve and Austin looked at her strangely. Darren stared back at the two without feeling panicked. His calmness is always reliable.

"Isabell was a plain girl who knew nothing. He spent his days in the palace. If anyone wants to get rid of it. The only thing worth suspecting is the queen. The possibility that the empress was in contact with the American brunon is a little off-putting."

"I agree with you" said Steve. "If he wanted to eliminate Isabell, he should have done it a long time ago. No need to wait until adulthood like this." This is why Steve asked Lexi to take Isabell out. He will discuss Isabell with his brother-in-law.

"So you're saying Isabell had something to do with Bartoli?"

"I didn't say it like that. But there's always a possibility."

"What do you mean?" Darren again showed a tense face. But soon he got back in control of himself. "She's Philip Geonandes' daughter."

"That's what we know."

"Yes, and that's why the queen doesn't like him." Austin returned to his voice after a few moments of silence and listening.

"Philip Geonandes, he loved only three women in his life."

"How did you know. Why does he know so much information?" Austin grumbled to Darren. Darren did not chim in, his nerves began to strain because what was discussed was Isabell.

"You don't know if Philip Geonandes was my friend when he was nongki-nongki enjoying a cup of coffee."

"You mean the king who told you directly?" ask Austin.

"Yes." Yeah."

"So who are the three women?" Darren was really under attack from anxiety.

"His mother, queen and ex-lover."

"Former lover?"

"Yes. I forgot his name. Maria, Amira, I don't know what her name is, I'll ask if we meet. Philip Geonandes loved Mary and..."

"So her name is really Maria?" Austin wants everything detailed and detailed.

"We'll just consider her Mary. Or do I need to call Philip now?" Steve is really brash. It turned out that it wasn't just their father that the man called his name without the frills of politeness. Even a king he called his name as if Philip Geonandes was his concoction.

"No need, continue your story" Darren said.

"Maria is a orphanage whose family origins are unclear. Women who would not be accepted into the kingdom. Their story ran aground because of social status. Philip was betrothed to the woman who is now empress. The important point, Philip also loved the empress very much as time went on." Steve pressed his sentence at the end.

Silent. Darren and Austin were preoccupied with their respective minds. They were trying to digest Steve's words.

"You want me to tell you one more secret?" Steve stopped the silence of the two. They looked at Steve with serious thoughts.

"Philip Geonandes once asked me specifically to marry Isabell."

"Bajass!!

"The heads!!

Different reactions were heard from the mouths of the Willsons.

"Come on, I'm just as amazing as that." Austin stood up and scooped Steve's collar. Steven was laughing.

"Casual, Dude. Come on, do you guys still not understand the point?"

"The king wanted Isabell to be in the hands of a man who could protect him. You didn't get a match for loving Lexi, and Phillip offered Willson a match. Which he thinks is also capable of protecting Isabel."

Steve flicked his finger, "At least you're smarter than your brother" Steve told Darren.

Yes, Steve never thought if Philip's proposal to him had a certain purpose. But after hearing the incident today, his brain thought to it. Phillip had a reason for that.

"Isabell was not Phillip's biological daughter was another possibility" Steve closed their discussion to coincide with the door of the room being opened.
