The car shook as it passed through the perforated asphalt. Kinara turned to the right and left cautiously. This area he had never crossed before. The streets are getting quieter, the buildings outside are getting less and less. The girl looked at her phone restlessly. Lorie has not yet replied to her messages. He hoped his bodyguard would check his phone immediately and read the incoming messages.
Kinara thought for a moment, then ventured to take the risk. She wiped the surface of her phone and searched her husband's name on the contact list. After meeting, he touched the green circle and stared at the writing plastered on the phone screen.
Tut's.
The call was interrupted before it could be connected. Kinara's forehead frowned. He brought his phone to his face. The flat object in his hand had no signal. The girl's heart was beating increasingly irregularly. He tried to send one more message to Lorie.
Message failed to send.
The girl held her phone firmly. He has no preparation at all. No weapons, or even clothes. Kinara lowered her head and looked at the sabrina dress and the high heels she was wearing. Really not supportive.
Kinara looked to the right. "Where are we actually going?" ask Brenda Smith's bodyguard sitting next to her.
"Calm down. The big madam cannot harm you" said the man with a flat face. He showed his displeased look clearly to Kinara. For him, anyone who is not liked by his employer then it should also be he does not like the person, without exception.
"That's not what I mean .. It's just, shouldn't we go to The Spring
The mountains?" reply Kinara hesitated. This burly bodyguard was enough to intimidate him.
"The Spring Mountains or not, the important big madam wants us to go there, then we should go there!" exclaimed the bodyguard while staring intently at Kinara. He thinks Kinara talks too much.
Kinara fell silent, not daring to say anything more. He didn't want to make the slightest fuss. Do not let granny know and increasingly have a reason not to like it. Finally the girl simply endured all her grievances and sat quietly. What else could he do? There is no way he jumped down from the top of this speeding car, ‘kan?
Knowing this I was waiting for Lorie, Kinara grumbled inwardly. He was really upset and angry, but didn't know who to take it out on. Somehow the old woman couldn't let him live quietly with Alex? Just because of his low status?
Hmh!
What else does he want now? Was all of this planned carefully? Would Alex go berserk knowing that her grandmother acted like this? Or maybe this group is being hijacked ... could be, right?
“Lorie, hurry ...,” murmured the girl with full plea. He realized, even though he had trained a lot and his martial skills had improved drastically, he was still an ordinary girl. At most he could only fight ten people with his bare hands. If it is more than that .. ah, only God knows.
Kinara looked up and leaned back in the chair. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath to relieve the tension. His brain was starting to overthink, it made him even more anxious. The more anxious the more he could not think clearly. Now, calming down is the best way. Of course, hoping that Alex and Lorie will find him soon.

Alex was focusing on checking the files on the Andromeda Corporation in the reading room, continuing the activities that had been delayed due to the arrival of the granny. Apparently even though the company looks small, but the branches of the company are everywhere. Almost half of the countries in Europe and Asia have been conquered. In the last three months, the company's turnover has almost reached one million USD. Of course, almost all of the profits were made after cooperating with the Jotuns Corps, or after purchasing a subsidiary of Jotuns.
“All because Jericho twill*t it!” furious Alex with fiery eyes.
He threw the files on the table until the papers flew, some scattered on the floor. However, the man did not care. His hands were tightly clenched. He wanted to smash Jericho's head. No. gabe. It felt like he was eager to bring that cunning bedeb*h to the Red Room and sever his limbs part by part.
His brengs*ek cousin seemed to deliberately provoke him by selling his hard work one by one. Alex was really upset half to death. Had his cousin not been the bridge to the figure behind the Andromeda Corporation, he would have been devastated since Alex learned that the man was the one who caused his car accident.
Alex walks back and forth in the reading room while examining Anne's company report. There is almost no hope anymore. The stock's selling value actually dropped to its lowest point. Some foreign companies have decided on a contract of cooperation. They prefer to pay the penalty. It's really fucked up. Alex picks up the phone on the table and makes a call.
“How is the development about three blanks?” ask her as soon as her calls are connected.
“Sorry, Sir. There is no bright spot yet,” replied the voice of the baritone who sounded calm and calculating from across there.
The voice was silent for a moment before continuing, “Last source confirmed that no one came out of the three empty cars when it exploded. The incident was recorded by the dashboard camera of one of the passing cars. But until now the empty position of three has not been ascertained. The body from inside the destroyed car has not been identified.”
“It ... not more than fifty percent. The only thing that makes us sure the empty three are still alive is the power-life signal that is still on. Unfortunately the tracking device is dead. It looks like the tracking device was either detached or accidentally removed from his body. Our satellite can't track it. For now, all we can do is wait for him who first contact us.”
“What about the people I told to comb the territory visited by empty three?”
“No results yet. It seemed like all traces had been successfully covered by the enemy very well. Some people even get random information and make them find a dead end.”
“Sial,” umpat Alex with annoyance, “I'll call you again later.”
Alex disconnects the phone call and puts her hair back on rough patch. Slow sigh escaped from his lips. The wrinkles on his forehead were multi-layered until his eyebrows were almost linked to each other. He thought hard, but had not yet found a way to untangle this tangled thread. All the ways he tried. All abilities he has given. But his opponent this time was really tough.
Right now the only chance to unveil the veil of this mystery is at 03. He really hopes the man gets away and is looking for a way to get back. Neil was completely useless. The man would rather die than dismantle the identity of his master. While his servant who exchanged Kinara gifts the other day was completely unreliable. The information provided by the woman was very limited. Not his fault because the organization that attacked him is working very neatly. Even the best people to trust are overwhelmed.
“Master!”
Lorie rushed into the reading room without knocking on the door, making Alex look at her with squeaking eyes. It was fortunate that Kinara was not at home so he did not have to bother returning to his wheelchair. Pretending it was exhausting. He has to take care of his attitude and behavior all the time.
“What happened?” alex asked when he saw the look on Lorie's anxious and nervous face.
“What's big mistress calling you?”
Lorie asked back. He walked over to Alex and showed me his phone. “Mistress Kinara sent me a message and said that the car is turning direction, not heading to The Spring Mountains.”
“What?” alex exclaimed as he checked his phone. No messages or missed calls from the granny.
“I was still soaking so did not immediately see a message from the mistress. It has now been about half an hour since the madam sent out her final location. That's approximately an hour drive from here.”
Alex kalut's. He punched the number he had memorized out of his head. “Where is the position now?” ask her while waiting for her call to connect.
“Mrs could not be contacted. Possible phone is dead or no signal.”
Lorie bit her lips in dismay. He should not have been soaking for too long. Who knew that his master would leave without telling him?
The number you are calling cannot be reached. Please leave a message, or call back in a few moments.
“Sial!” maki Alex when the call is not connected. Kinara's number could not be reached as Lorie said. He tried to dial the granny number stored in his cell phone contact.
The number you are calling cannot be reached. Please leave a message, or–
“Sial! Damnit damnit! Shit!” yell Alex while punching the air
He was growling in frustration. Granny's number can't connect. What the hell is going on? Is the enemy sabotaging again? It seems unlikely that his grandmother was cooperating with criminals. But the woman is also unlikely to get off track if there is nothing forced to make her do it.
Is granny also threatened?
Alex really felt like he was going crazy and exploding. He's really gonna blow up until something happens to his wife and grandmother.
“Command all troops to prepare. Track the last position where my wife was and chances are she was taken to where!” the man ordered, taking his coat draped over the chair.
Alex hurriedly galloped out, ignoring the astonished gazes of the servants who saw him able to walk normally. He had no time to pretend to be blind or paralyzed. His wife's out there in danger. By ourselves. To hell with the plan and strategy! His wife's life is worth more than anything. If after this his enemies become more alert because they know he can see and walk again, no problem. He just needs to rearrange everything from the beginning.
