TRAPPED IN THE NOVEL WORLD
Head home
The Hideon company.
"Tell Sembo not to hand the child over to Lily. I'll raise the commission as you ask" Hideon said on the phone.
"I know, Mister. Unfortunately, Sembo's number was no longer active. I'll call him back when he's active, so he doesn't give it to Lily."
"How can the Sembo number be inactive? Don't cover. I've given you 2 billion dollars in silence, if there's anything with my granddaughter, I'll report you to the police!"
Hideon's silence on Mrs Dori would average for her 1 billion and Sembo a billion. Unfortunately Sembo did not want, they think the number is too small. It's true that Mrs Dori lost contact with Sembo. When Madam Dori was about to contact him again, suddenly the signal on Sembo's phone disappeared.
"Signals in Sembo's place are indeed difficult to reach. Sir don't threaten us with the police. There you will be prosecuted for abandoning Zero from the baby, you and your child could be the one who will go to jail. Zero's identity has been included in our family card, of course Zero is our son." Lady Dori threatened to return.
Hideon across the phone was also very furious, he also lost the signal to contact Aluna and Alvin, because the weather in the mountains was not friendly, drizzling rain accompanied by a storm.
"I don't want to know. If there's anything with my granddaughter. I'll finish you off!"
...***...
In the mountainous area of town X at six in the morning. Lily and some of her men are trying to follow Sembo. Aluna and Alvin. In a different position and car they are still monitoring Sembo and his wife from inside.
"We should just go to Sembo, we give him the calculation to give up Zero. Give him the money he asked for and quickly take our child," said Alvin intend to come out.
Sembo and his wife found out they were being followed. The husband and wife are very greedy, and cunning. They deliberately bought Zero from Madame Dori because they would trade again abroad. When they found out Lily was following her, instead of continuing the journey, they turned to a hotel instead.
"Don't! Lily still loves him. Jo's assistant is already behind us, just tell him to quietly go inside the hotel. We'd better go straight to his house, because I'm sure Zero's not with them" Aluna said.
Aluna looked back, seeing Assistant Jo already in the car behind them. Aluna gives orders for Assistant Jo to meet Sembo inside.
"Do you know her home address?" ask Alvin.
"We have entered the Strawberry plantation, a few kilometers away there is a village. Just now I asked someone, almost the entire house in that place belongs to Strawberry picker laborers. We just ask the people there" said Aluna.
For how many times did Alvin believe Aluna's words. He was very confident that Aluna was brought in to overcome the chaos in his household.
Aluna started her car engine turning towards the address of the village near the plantation.
...***...
Elsewhere in Alvin's company.
"Where's Alvin? Why hasn't he come yet? Hadn't it been more than seven in the morning, there was no way she was late" Helen was seen daydreaming sitting in Alvin's room.
Many times he looked at the window, making sure Alvin's car had entered the company page. Unfortunately, Alvin Tek's car has been seen. Helen doesn't know that Alvin took a day off to find Zero.
"Sam, why hasn't President Alvin arrived yet?"
Secretary Sam happens to walk into Alvin's room, he wants to tidy up the files Alvin signed yesterday.
"The president can't work today. The president said, there are important needs to be taken care of. If you want to ask about work, Miss can ask me, "Secretary Sam replied.
"Is there an important need? Is he seeing a client this early? All those years since working for him, I just saw Alvin not coming to work."
"Looks not. Several meetings with clients have been cancelled today. I don't know any other important needs, Miss," replied Secretary Sam, "excuse me, I have a lot of work to do" he continued.
"Wait, didn't Luna come in?" ask Helen before Secretary Sam leaves the room.
Secretary Sam nodded then passed away. Finding Luna also not coming, Helen felt confused and guessed. Actually, what are the important needs that cause Alvin not to enter work with Aluna? She called Alvin's housekeeper, asking him where the man was at his house.
Helen is shocked when she hears that Alvin is not home with Aluna. Someone said that Alvin was going to the other island by helicopter.
"To the opposite island with Luna? There's no way they're going on a honeymoon when there's bad news about Luna. I'm sure this has something to do with the child Luna was born with. I had to call Mommy to urge Dad to dig up information about the boy's father" Helen said.
"If Alvin is with Luna looking for the boy. I also had to contact Lily and Yuze to let them know," Helen said again, pressing one of the contacts on her phone.
