...“Ciara, Daddy again in Jakarta. He's asking us to meet! Big brother is so happy! The day after tomorrow I will go to Jakarta. We met at Hotel One Day, yes!” – Darren A. Garnachos...
Abercio rushed down the bed and climbed on the floor. He grabbed Ciara's phone and picked up the unsettling call. While Ciara positioned her body sitting staring fearfully at her mobile phone that was vibrating.
“Halo?” abercio's baritone voice echoed as he raised the call.
Instead of saying anything, the intruder turned off the call after listening to Abercio's voice.
Abercio turned towards Ciara. “Daddy can borrow ciara hp? Daddy's gonna have Bart find out who's been bothering you since then.”
Ciara nodded weakly towards Abercio. He was completely resigned to what actions Abercio would take to deal with the problem that frightened him.
Abercio sat on the side of the bed right next to Ciara. He stroked the back of Ciara's head with an affectionate look.
“Do not be afraid. I won't let anyone hurt you,” Abercio calmed Ciara down. “Even ants will I kill if he hurts you.”
Ciara suddenly laughed with Abercio's words. “Daddy is too much.”
“Hahaha... I'm serious, darling,” Abercio brought Ciara's body into his arms again. “Nobody can touch and hurt you in this world.”
“Besides me,” connect Abercio in heart.
...❣️❣️❣️...
“Pak, last night I contacted a paid person. They just scared Ciara on the 35th floor in front of the elevator. Just get there. He also didn't touch Ciara at all.”
“In fact, they do not know the figure in black clothes in front of the hotel. The figure who harmed you was not their member,” explained Bart.
Abercio smoked his cigarette on the balcony while staring at the rain that still flushed the earth that morning. The dark garden that he usually enjoys at night, that morning looks so beautiful and pampering the eyes. Somehow Abercio never wanted to fix the lights in the park.
“Bart,” call Abercio. “On my table it hp belongs to Ciara.”
“Track the weird numbers that terrorized him last night. Just find out who contacted Ciara including the paid person,” Abercio command.
“Good, Sir.” Bart picks up Ciara's phone on Abercio's desk. Then he resigned.
When Bart opened the door to Abercio's office, Axel was standing at the door with his hands in the air ready to knock.
“Pak, can I log in?” ask Axel.
“Hmm. Come in,” Abercio said without looking back. “You also don't go first, Bart.”
The two entered Abercio's office and closed the door. Then they walked closer towards Abercio.
“Mark Alejandro Garnacho. I have found the information you requested,” Axel said.
“After his divorce with Lucy, he moved to Surabaya and settled there with his new wife. But the marriage lasted only one year because he was deceived by his wife and all his property was changed hands to his wife.”
“Two days ago Markus to Jakarta. He wants to find Lucy and her two children. Dia—”
“Reason she wants to see Lucy and her two children what?” asked Abercio coldly.
“For that I'm still investigating, sir. Her unsettling behavior made all the relatives break with her. So, no one likes to make friends or socialize with him,” explained Axel.
“What's his job now?” ask Abercio curiously.
“Last, drug dealer. But because he became a fugitive, now he fled with the rest of the money to Jakarta,” explained Axel again.
“Something's wrong,” murmured Bart slowly.
Abercio looked towards Bart. Bart's mutter was successful in stealing Abercio's attention. Although he was upset with Bart because a little more of the man put his feelings on Ciara, he could not deny that Bart was one of his smart and intelligent confidants.
“What's wrong?” abercio asked as she looked towards Bart.
Ting!
Not yet Bart answered Abercio's words, there was a message coming in from Darren. Ciara's older sister.
“From Darren, sir,” said Bart who was staring at the screen of Ciara's phone.
“What's the message?” ask Abercio.
Bart recites the message Darren sent to Ciara.
...“Ciara, Daddy again in Jakarta. He invited us to meet!”...
...“Big brother is so happy! The day after tomorrow I will go to Jakarta. We met at Hotel One Day, yes!”...
...“Daddy's waiting for us there!”...
Abercio growled with anger. He knew that the damn Markus wanted to meet Ciara not without reason. There must be something that the man was planning! After so many years of no news, why is it that he now invites the child he tortured to meet?!
“Mark Alejandro Garnacho. For some reason, my hunch says that the strange man last night was him,” muttered Abercio as he crossed his hands to his chest with the look of his eyes staring straight ahead without resting.
“Axel, investigate as much information as possible about Markus it.” Abercio's orders were clear.
“Bart, investigate what I asked earlier. Find out what connection he has. How until he can get Ciara number?” abercio's word to Bart firmly.
“I will add your bonus three times than usual.”
Abercio sighed harshly. His head suddenly hurt when he thought about the safety of Ciara being a bet. He did not want the girl to be tortured and hurt again. He wanted to protect the girl with all the power he had.
As Abercio had determined before, even though in this world there were those who could hurt Ciara, only she was the only one who could hurt the girl. No one touches the girl but her.
“For a while I will work from home while keeping Ciara safe. If there is anything, you can find me here,” Abercio continued.
