Scratches of Wound in Fiona's Heart
Disappearance of Fiona

"My mom and dad can't come, so there's only me here. Wh why? Do you mind if I'm the only one coming? asked James with raised eyebrows.

Fiona felt an unpleasant feeling. "Fio, I'm sorry about this afternoon. I was wrong because I had lost control" James said regretfully when he saw Fiona looking suspicious at him.

Hearing James's apology, Fiona immediately crumbled. He walked to the chair in front of James and sat down. "James, I came here just to call off our match. I want to meet your parents and tell them directly."

Fiona did not want to linger with James so she went straight to the main point.

James observed Fiona's face for quite a while before opening his mouth. "Fio, are you still mad at me for this afternoon's trouble?" ask James.

"No James, I'm not a vengeful woman. I just want to straighten out the matter about our matchmaking so you don't expect more from me" Fiona said.

"Fiona, you said it wasn't because of the wealth you liked, now please tell me, what don't I have that you prefer Steven?"

James looked calmer than he had this afternoon when he met Fiona in front of his office.

Fiona sighed. "There's nothing wrong with you James, it's just that you can't shake my heart. While Steven, just saying his name makes me flutter. I hope you can understand James about my feelings and no longer force me" Fiona said in a soft tone.

"With your background and handsome face, I think many women are willing to be your companion. For example, Alexa, has always liked you. Smart woman, nice family background, and pretty, I think she's a great fit for you."

"I don't love her, you know it's Fiona. It's just you in my heart."

"James, if you really love me, you should let me go so I can be happy."

James smiled in anguish. "Fiona, if Steven doesn't exist, can you accept me?"

Fiona's forehead immediately wrinkled. "You mean?" Suddenly he felt bad after hearing James' words.

"No meaning whatsoever. I was just wondering if Steven wasn't in your life, would you still reject me" James replied casually.

Fiona seemed to start to feel strange with James' question. "Forgot just what I said" James said with a smile. "We better have dinner. You must not have eaten, right?"

James is seen ordering some food before Fiona comes. "James, I'm sorry I really can't continue this matchmaking." Fiona just wants to reiterate to James so that there is no more misunderstanding going forward.

"I know I'll take it" James said with a relaxed face. "Although our matchmaking is void, it does not mean we have to be hostile. We can still be friends, right?" james asked with raised eyebrows while looking at Fiona with a smile.

Fiona is seen examining James's face shortly before replying to James. "Have you really accepted my decision?" ask Fiona to make sure.

"Of course, I can no longer force you if you don't love me" James replied casually.

"Before we go home, we'll have dinner. My parents' problems, let me talk to them" James continued.

"All right." Fiona starts grabbing spoons and forks just like James did. After eating, Fiona had a little chat with James.

Fiona stared at the clock in her hand, the time already showing at 9 p.m. "James, it's night. I have to go home" Fiona said, staring at James.

"Let me drive you home" James said.

"No James, I can take a taxi" Fiona refused.

"Fiona, it's late, it's dangerous to come home in a taxi. I better take you. Aunt Sarah will be angry if I let you go home alone" James said, standing up after grabbing the car keys.

Fiona thought for a moment then nodded. "All right, thank you." Fiona then walks with James to the parking lot.

Arriving home, James immediately said goodbye. After James's departure, Fiona walked inside. "Have you finished your business with James?" Sarah's voice was immediately heard when Fiona had just entered the living room where Sarah was. "It's Ma" Fiona replied quickly.

"Go upstairs, Cinsy's been waiting for you" Sarah said.

"Yes Ma."

When Fiona was about to step up her phone rang. "Triiying." A message came in Fiona's phone. After opening it Fiona frowned for a moment.

From: xxxxxxxxxx

Fiona, I'm ahead. Come out, I want to see you for a minute. My phone was left at home. I'm using my other phone.

Steven.

He then dialed Steven's mobile number which is usually 2 times but not picked up. Fiona then gets the message back.

From: xxxxxxxxxxx

Fiona, come out quickly. I won't be long. I just wanted to see you for a minute because I miss you so much. I'm waiting for you in the car that's lying in front of your house.

Fiona keeps her phone back in the bag and turns to look at Sarah. "Ma, I'm gonna go out for a second" Fiona said. He decided to leave because he didn't want to keep Steven waiting.

"Where else are you going?" ask Sarah with a face she doesn't like.

"I'd like to meet Steven for a minute Ma. He's in front."

"Don't dawdle. It's already night."

"Yes Ma." Fiona walked out. When he got to the front of the house. He immediately approached a black sedan car lying in front of his house. The same car that Doni used to pick him up.

When Fiona knocks on the windshield, the back door opens, Fiona's hand is pulled inside and her nose is smothered to unconsciousness. The car then drove away from Fiona's residence.

Erick approaches Steven who is seen still sitting at his desk. "Sir, Miss Fiona has been delivered home by Mr. James" Erick said after being in front of Steven.

Steven put down the pen in his hand and turned to look at Erick. "Is everything okay?"

"Yes Master. Miss Fiona looks fine." Steven mangosteen.

"There is no Master so far."

"Well, is Doni still there?" ask Steven again.

"Still Sir," Erick replied quickly.

"Have him come home and come back tomorrow morning to pick him up" Steven ordered.

"Good sir."

"Take me home to my parents' mansion" Steven ordered as he walked out of his room.

After being in the car, Steven closed his eyes while sitting leaning back. Arriving at his parents' mansion, Steven went straight inside after telling Erick to go home.

When he was in the room, Steven took a shower. After taking a shower, he checked his phone. Seen Fiona contacted him 2 times, two hours ago. Steven then contacted Fiona but was not picked up. Steven tried several times to contact Fiona but was not appointed either.

Steven seems to be getting nervous. Fiona doesn't usually ignore her phone many times. He thought for a moment, Is it possible that Fiona has already slept. Fiona once said that her phone is in silent mode when she sleeps.

Steven called Erick. "Rick, ask Doni to come to Fiona's house. I couldn't contact her from earlier."

"Good sir." I heard the answer from Erick.

Steven then sat leaning on the bed while continuing to contact Fiona.

After waiting for half an hour, Erick called Steven and said that Doni did not pick up the phone. That very night, Steven asks Erick to pick him up and asks him to deliver to Fiona's house.

Arriving at Fiona's house, Steven immediately pressed the bell. Several times Steven rang the bell but the gate was not yet open. After waiting for 5 minutes, the gate finally opened.

"Don't you have any etiquette to go and hit this?" sarah asked with an annoyed face when she saw Steven standing in front of the gate at 12pm.

"I want to meet Fiona." Steven doesn't seem to care about Fiona's mother's annoyance.

"Are you drunk? Didn't you pick her up yourself?" Sarah looks still upset because her sleep has been disturbed by Steven.

Steven frowned. "I don't understand what you mean."

"Fiona came out to see you, she said you were in front of the house to meet her. After I waited long enough, Fiona did not come back. I thought you took him away because you didn't let him stay here" Sarah said.

Steven's face stiffened immediately. "Listen to me. Don't try to fool me. I've never been here to meet Fiona."

"You're not you, who did Fina meet with?"

"That question should be what I should ask you."

"I don't know either. Whether you want to believe it or not. I'm telling the truth. Why would I lie to you."

"What's the matter Ma?" Cindy came out the gate with her mother

"Cindy, where's Fiona?" Steven doesn't believe his mother's words.

"Didn't she come home with you?"

"Why would I come here if he was with me. I can't reach him, so I'm here."

"He's not here" Cindy said.

"Cindy, I'm in a hurry, so, don't try to cover up Fiona's whereabouts."

"Steven, we're telling the truth. Why do we worship Fiona's whereabouts."

"Your mother has every reason to hide Fiona." Steven was getting impatient. He then looked at the bodyguards behind him.

"Hurry inside and check every corner of this house, lest anyone be missed" Steven ordered. Before heading to Fiona's house, Steven asks Erick to bring 10 bodyguards.

"You can't just walk into my house." Sarah was seen approaching the gate.

Steven's face darkened. "If you dare to stand in my way again, I won't hesitate to destroy your house, so don't test my patience."

Sarah immediately trembled. Just this time, he saw the glare of Steven's horrible eyes and his ferocious face. "Ma, let Steven check inside." Cindy pulled her mother's body to the edge.

"Hurry in," Steven ordered. She goes inside followed by Cindy and Sarah in the back. After searching for half an hour, all of his guards returned to meet Steven in the middle room. They say they didn't find Fiona's whereabouts.

"I told you he's not here" Sarah said.

Steven looked at Sarah. "Then I find out you're behind all this. I'm not gonna let you go. I'll destroy your family until there's nothing left. You should know, with my family status. I can do anything. No one will dare stop me" Steven said with murderous eyes

Sarah swallowed her saliva with her still trembling body. "I don't know about Fiona's whereabouts. I'm not lying."

Steven switched to Erick. "Rick, leave 4 bodyguards here and check all the CCTVs in this area" Steven ordered. "Begging Jorsh to call Doni until he picks up the phone."

"Good sir."

"Give all of Jorsh's men to find Fiona. Don't stop until you find it. I want 1x24 hours you guys should've found Fiona's whereabouts."

"Good sir."

"I wonder, who is the one who dares to play around with me. I'll destroy that person if I dare to touch and hurt Fiona" Steven said with a glittering look and clenched hands.
