Hans drove at full speed towards David’s apartment. In less than an hour, they managed to reach his apartment’s door and knocked hurriedly.Since it’s past midnight, David must be sleeping already, and usually, Hans doesn’t like to disturb someone’s rest. But their current situation doesn’t apply to that.Two lives are currently at risk every minute, every hour, that passes.After a couple of knocks, the door opened. He was wearing his sleepwear and by the look of his hair, he had just woken up.“Oh, what are you two doing here? Didn’t you see the time?” he yawned heavily, probably he has not woken up completely.“We need your help right now David…” Hans pleaded. Jonathan on the other hand just kept his silence.Until now he was still not comfortable being around David. As much as possible he wanted to stay as far away as possible from him.He won’t be able to forget how this guy embarrassed him in their university years. He admits that it was his fault in the first place but who woul
A few moments later, Manager Kim arrived at David’s apartment. As soon as the call ended, she immediately rushed to her car and drive at full speed.Fortunately, it’s still 3 in the morning, no cars are driving on the street so she can easily drive past the streets.“What do you mean Mary got kidnapped?!… And what? Everly was missing?! What’s happening?!” Manager Kim angrily shouted at them when she saw them inside the apartment.She had a brief idea of what was going on because of the call. Jonathan lowered his head in shame because he was blaming himself as well. If only he arrived there faster, this wouldn’t have happened.Manager Kim saw Jonathan and she instantly grabbed him by the collar, “You promised me that you will take care of her!… Then why was she got kidnapped?!… Dr. Hans, I trusted you completely!”Jonathan didn’t try to break out from Manager Kim’s grasp and just let her hit him. He didn’t have to courage to defend himself when he too, as well, was blaming himself.Han
Inside an abandoned building, with small lamps illuminating the dark place, Everly was tied up in a metal chair, her eyes were covered with a cloth, incapable of seeing her surroundings.When she arrived at the location sent to her, she immediately rushed there. In her mind, she was desperate to save Mary.However, when she arrived at the meeting place, some men dressed in black with a black masks covering their faces approached her. She didn’t have time to shout because they immediately covered her mouth with a napkin.She didn’t know what happened after and when she woke up, she was already tied up in her seat.She also left her phone in her apartment along with the letter hoping for they to see it.It’s her plan B if she failed to save Mary on her own. If all break loose, she will trade herself for Mary’s life. Two lives are better than one. And also, Mary was just forced into this situation.If not because of her, Mary wouldn’t be in this kind of situation. So, she can’t forgive h
“Have you located their location?” It was already morning that day. The sky had its full glory and up until now they still haven’t found out where Everly and Mary were.Hans, Jonathan, and Manager Kim went back to David’s apartment. They can’t afford to continue their stay there in Everly’s apartment for the fear that Mary’s family might find out.They can’t risk Mr.s Janet’s health. As long as they can delay the news from reaching them, they would do so.Manager Kim already called Director Jackson and now, he was already on his way to David’s apartment.After they found the paper with musical notes, they still didn’t have any idea what that was all about. They were still wondering whether that was a clue left by Everly or it was just plainly a newly composed song of hers.“Not yet… I’m trying to make use of the CCTV cameras on the streets but her car wasn’t captured in any of those. I bet she was being instructed by the kidnapper on which road to take for her car to avoid those camer
“Everyone, here’s the plan… I have already copied the full blueprint of the warehouse. According to this, it has two floors and most probably, Everly and Mary were locked on the second floor, specifically in this room right here.” David pointed out the blueprint.Hans, Jonathan, and Director Jackson listened intently. Manager Kim was left in the city since this mission is very dangerous. And if worst comes to worst, Manager Kim can call backups.Manager Kim refused at first but after several persuasions, she finally backed down and left the men to do the dangerous job.As of this moment, they are currently in a black van and they are parked a few blocks away from the abandoned building. After they decoded the address left by Everly, David managed to get footage of where Everly was dragged inside a car, unconscious.From there, David took the plate number of the car, and finally, they found the car’s location. It’s already nighttime when they arrived at the location and it’s far from t
In just a matter of moments, there’s a heated atmosphere between Tyrone and Louisse. Tyrone was trying to persuade Louisse to stop while Louisse was stubbornly refusing to put the gun down.“Tyrone, don’t tempt me to pull the trigger… you know that I’m not the type of person who bluffs.”As Tyrone observed the woman’s cold and sadistic gaze filled with madness for revenge and as he heard this sentence, all of Tyrone’s calm rationality vanished at that moment.Without thinking, he immediately approached her and tried to grab the gun from her. Louisse who was suddenly taken aback struggled with all her might.“Louisse!… Let go of it already! Let go!” Tyrone said as he struggled. He was trying his best to snatch the gun without anyone getting hurt. He knows that with one wrong move, Louisse might accidentally pull the trigger.Louisse shouted to Tyrone as her voice almost broke, “You can’t stop me, Tyrone!… So you let go of it!”The fight lasted for minutes and without any warning, there
Those words left by Hans broke Louisse. It stabbed her heart deeply. Louisse tightly clenched her teeth, while her sharp sword-like gaze fiercely shot towards Everly.“It’s because of her, isn’t it?! If not for her, you wouldn’t be like this Hans! If not because of her you won’t treat me like this!… You are bewitched by this freak Hans, wake up!”Hans calmly replied, however, there’s a coldness in his eyes, “Even if there’s no Everly in this world, I wouldn’t become yours, Louisse! No matter where, what, and when, I won’t be able to love you like how you wished it to be.”Louisse’s Hans ruthlessly tightened the grip on the gun, with her fair white jade fingertips, she was so close to pulling the trigger. But, she thought of something that will make Hans dislike her.“Hahahaha” she maddening laughed. Everyone was confused as to why Louisse suddenly laughed. There’s nothing funny about their situation. And the way she laughed, it’s like there is something bad that’s going to happen.“I
“Louisse! What are you doing?!… Drop the gun, now!” Hans shouted in shock when Louisse pointed the gun at Everly.Louisse smiled wickedly at them, “Who are you to order me around Hans?!.. Let’s just say that if I can’t have you, then no one else will! I will make sure of that!”Louisse noticed that Jonathan was about to move towards Mary which made her smirk, “Where do you think you are going, Jonathan?… Oh, to rescue your little pregnant girlfriend?”She laughed sarcastically, “Oh, do you think that I can’t do anything to her since I’m left all alone here?!… You are wrong!… You are definitely wrong!” she raised her hand which showed a remote on it with just one button.“See this?” Louisse looked at their anxious faces, her eyes then landed on Everly, “Everly, how about we do a trade again?”Everly didn’t reply while Hans shouted, “Don’t listen to her Everly!… She’s already being delusional! Don’t agree to whatever she was going to say!”Director Jackson was also getting anxious! “Eve
