"Jessica and Verrel, Lex. They're..."
"They why? Something happened to Jessica and Verrel?" The look on Alex's face had described her panic.
"They're kidnapped,lex. Nathania, your classmate came here and told my mom" replied Athena.
"What?!" Screeches Alex.
"Give her mom's phone!" Decide Alex.
"Hello, Lex."
"Nia, tell me what happened and who kidnapped them?" Ask Alex without saying anything.
"I don't really understand either. They were both just now. They seem to be singing together. Suddenly some black-robed people came and caught them. I caught him, but my strength was no stronger than theirs. So, I immediately came looking for you," replied Nathania.
I almost forgot that Nathania didn't know Verrel's parents. Jessica's parents are also overseas. Even further compared to my current existence,~Batin Alex.
"alright. Thanks for the information."
Alex ends his phone and rushes to get his things ready.
...*...*...
A few moments later...
Alex started calling everyone there. With a stir, they gathered in an instant.
"Chairman, Young master, why do you want to leave?" Aron and Nero asked at the same time.
"Uncle Aron, Nero, Alex's friend was kidnapped. Alex thinks this must be Uncle Steve's doing" said Alex.
"What's? Is that Miss Jessica and Young Master Verrel?" Ask Aron.
Alex nodded, "we're leaving now. I've booked tickets for me, Uncle Aron and Nero."
"Then, what about them?" Asked Aron while pointing at Resca and the others.
"Hmmm..." Alex thought for a moment. He glanced at Resca there, confused what to answer.
"We'll follow, Mr. Aron. The chairman told us to stay" Resca said.
Clever! They really are like a shooting star to me,~ Inner Alex.
"Alright, it's decided. Uncle Aron and Nero hurry up. I don't want anything to happen to Jessica and Verrel. Reca, get the car ready!" Decide Alex.
"Okay, chief!"
...*...*...
Nero and Aron have caught up with Alex up front. They immediately put their goods on the trunk of the car, when everyone had entered the car, suddenly Luna came and prevented them.
"Alex, where are you going?" Ask Luna while carrying two large bushels containing food.
"I'm going back to my country" replied Alex.
"What's wrong?" Ask Luna.
"That's none of your business" Alex replied slightly to Luna's surprise.
"Oh okay. I just wanted to give this to you. I thought that you guys must not have eaten. So, I brought you all, " said Luna.
"Oh. I'll bring him one. The other one leave it here. They'll stay here for a few days" Alex said.
"Btw thanks and see you" Pamit Alex.
Alex though with his prestige so high, the man secretly opened a bushel in his hand. Aron always sees his movements. He understood Alex was eager to have a taste of the woman's food, but also that he wanted to start staying away from her, out of guilt from the night's events.
Wow, fragrant. I was a laper. But...
Alex glanced at Aron and Nero. The two of them seemed to be busy chatting about the plan ahead. When according to Alex they have been off guard, Alex also took the bottom row that still looks empty. It seemed, The lady purposely emptied it just in case, Alex and the others ran out of dishes. Alex started eating. Of course, he took everything with a spoon, not making others eat his marks.
Ugh...
The sound of belching coming out of his mouth embarrassed him to death. Aron and Nero immediately turned to her and chuckled softly. Alex's face became so red and misbehaved.
"Young master, if you like, don't be prestigious. Be careful of being picked on by other men" said Aron teasing Alex.
"Cihh, who likes him too? What I have is even hate. She looks a lot like Vieka" Alex says, apparently lying.
And that, on the other hand...
Jessica and Verrel are still in the hands of the men. They just got off the box car that took them to an island that was quite crowded and saw many people passing by there. However, the island will usually only be inhabited during the day, maximum afternoon, the rest of them will go home and the island will return quiet.
"Hmmm.. uhmmm.." Jessica tried to scream in a mouth that was gagged by a cloth.
Jessica paused for a moment and thought about how to escape. As she saw the opportunity, as the man's feet were around her, Jessica stepped on the criminal's feet.
"Gurghhh!"
Trial succeeded. He slipped out of the criminal's hands and tried his hardest to release Verrel from them. The two black-robed men faced them, because basically Jessica and Verrel had been good at martial arts since they were still sitting on the SD bench. They were the ones protecting Alex all along before things changed.
Unfortunately, they could only be happy for a moment. Two other people came by sneaking around and beating them unconscious.
"Bus, tch, tch. These two reckless and foolish brats, even you guys can't beat him?" Ask one of the men who just came to help.
"They look stupid, but their martial arts are so great. If it wasn't for you guys attacking secretly, I'd even be sure you weren't their opponent." A person known as O-Black tried to stand up after being knocked down so badly.
"Already, already. It's not all that important. We all have one goal and one chairman, we shouldn't fight for something that doesn't matter. We take them, " said O-Black.
...*...*...
The main hall of the Lachowicz Residence...
Nathania remained there with Athena after they managed to contact Alex. Now, they can breathe a little relieved, because Alex can't stay still.
"Thank you aunt. Nathania said he'd go home first" Nathania said.
"No need to thank. We're the ones who should be thanking you. Otherwise, Alex will be more crazy and will rarely go home because his two friends can not be saved. By the way, don't go home yet. It's time for dinner, let's eat together" Athena asked.
"Can I?" Ask Nathania.
"If it's not a hassle, I want to. All I want to wonder about aunty beauty recipes. Hehe."
"Haha. I can."
Nathania and Athena entered the dining room together with a little chatter and laughter that sounded loud, but still authoritative.
A few moments later...
"Uhhhh. So full. Thanks aunt. Didn't expect the cooking at Alex's house to be so delicious. Even more delicious than at my house," complimented Nathania.
"If you like, you can play here often."
"alright. Thank you for the meal and all the advice. I'm saying home. Good night," Pamit Nathania.
Nathania enters his car and waves to Athena. He just left after saying goodbye. Athena entered her home again.
