Stepping out of the hotel, Jonathan and Erna got into the car. They were going to fly back to country K, however there was a uncertainty in Erna's heart that didn't seem to waver.
While her mind was entirely occupied with her father's thought. Whereas Jonathan was fearful about their safety until they finally fly off from this place.
For now he was able to manipulate Eveline, however he had to return ho soon before she starts getting suspicious about his trace.
As they drove, silence fell into the car with both the people occupied with different thought.
But soon sothing clicked Jonathan's mind and he shot his eyes towards the driver.
"Where are taking us? This isn't the route to the airport" he snapped alerting Erna from her thoughts and she frantically outside only to confirm Jonathan's words.
The man on the driver seat did react, and continued to drive. However Jonathan senses alert and swiftly pulled out his gun.
"Stop the car or else I will shoot" Jonathan pointed his gun at the man.
His bloodshot eyes send shiver down Jonathan's mind however before he could pull the trigger, the man swiftly took hold of the gun from hand at and pointed back at them.
"Keep quiet or else I will shoot you both"
Erna face paled as the mories from the past crossed her eyes. It was happening again. The gun, the kidnapping and then firing, everything began to swirl in her mind like it happened a while ago.
Her breathing turned heavy and grabbed onto Jonathan's arm.
"H-he will kills us Jonathan" she stuttered feeling the air leaving her lungs. Beads of sweat ford over her forehead and her breathing laboured.
Jonathan panicked at her condition. He was aware of the trauma that was inflected to her after she suffered the accident and with everyti it was triggered she would panic.
Blood drained from his face and he held Erna close to his heart.
"Please leave us. I will pay you any amount you ask. Please let us go. She needs a doctor right now" Jonathan dropped his gaurd and pleaded the man, begging him to spare them as Erna was having panic attack.
If not treated she would suffer a heart attack.
The man chuckled enjoying the fearful look on their face.
"Not unless I do my job." He said turning ignorant to his plea.
Jonathan wanted to leave the hotel discreetly which is why he didn't let his guards follow them. But now regretted doing so.
Keeping his eyes at the man, he tried to grab the phone from his hand.
Bang!
A bullet hit the side of the seat startling Jonathan's on the spot.
"Don't act smart or else I will kill you both" the man warned and Jonathan pulled Erna in his arm.
She was losing her breath and with every effort to grasp the air, she felt her vision clearing.
What was happening? Why it was happening?
Who is this man? Where was he taking them?
"Please,let us go or else she will die" Jonathan begged, his voice turning heavy as be noticed the struggle Erna was having while keeping up with the air she breath.
It was as the world was falling down and Jonathan could fee the sa helplessness take over him from years ago.
"SHUT THE FUCK UP. IF YOU IRRITATE I WILL SHOOT YOU THIS TI " the man shouted, his patience thinning and out of frustration he again shot a bullet on the seat silencing Jonathan on the spot.
The man was pissed but he had to do his job of bringing his target to his boss however little did be knew it wasn't going to easy.
Suddenly a racing bike speeded towards the car and rider shot on the tier bursting it on the spot.
The car jiggled trying to find its speed when another bullet was shot on the other teir, and he completely stopped.
A sense of panic washed over Jonathan face however before he could analyse what was happening, a bullet went through the window hitting right into the driver's head, killing him on the spot.
Jonathan held the unconscious Erna close to his heart as he watched the man towards the driver seat and in a quick movent he pulled the limp man out of the car and got inside.
"Don't panic, she will be fine" he said, his eyes red with tears as he looked at the lady.
"W-who are you" Jonathan couldn't help but ask.
The man held his eyes at the woman and pulled the mask off his face.
Jonathan's eyes wide as he recognised the man before him and his na slipped automatically from his mouth.
"Kaden" was all he could say before the car too off the road taking them away.
****
Inside the dark isolated room, Jedrick was fuming with rage. He had been wrong all along to think that Erna was dead, but it turned out that his so-called little brother tricked him.
His lips curled up as he let out a disbelieving chuckle.
"I have been underestimating you Jonathan, but you indeed turned out to be the son of your father. You fooled all along, making believe that Erna had died. However you managed to survive her"
The room fell into a lommy silence. The darkness in his eyes never disappearing.
"But not anymore. I have found you and now it's ti to end everything I failed to do back then" his voice filled the empt space with terror.
All these years he had been burning with rage. The humiliation he faced when Erna chose his brother over him despite after whatever happened between them, it slit through his ego.
What was so nice about Jonathan that he won over him. And their parents, for them he was their first son and angel baby but what happened to that love, in the end showed their true colors and supported their biological son over his emotions, over his love for Erna.
The day they ask him to let go of the love of his life because she didn't feel the sa for him was the day he lost his sanity.
"You might have fooled little brother, but this brother of yours won't let you win this ti. He will revenge everyone one of you and take back that belongs to " and evil glint crossed across his gloomy eyes.
Jedrick couldn't wait to see her. After all these years of believing she was no more, a feeling of seeing her alive brought a new determination of vengeance in his heart and this ti, the pain will be ten ti bad them the previous one.
As he continued waiting to hear a good news, a knock on the door, broke his thoughts and he watched the frantic Rick making his way, towards him.
"Boss, we lost them" those words were enough to stir a strong emotions in his heart and he clenched his jaw in fury.
"How is that possible? How can they-"
"Soone helped them and also killed our n" Rick disclosed.
Jedrick's face contorted with a indescribable emotions and the next mont he grabbed the flower vase and threw it towards Rick.
Thud!
Rick was quick enough to dodge the attack and the vase went flying over his shoulder and hit the wall.
His face paled and he shot his eyes at Jedrick who was now fuming with imnse rage.
"Find who helped them. I want them both before . I want them dead and the one who would do the honour this ti is "
Jedrick words were out of animosity that help no empathy for the people he wanted to kill since a long ti.
The feeling of betrayal ran so deep in his heart that he didn't see anything but to eliminate all those who tried to bring him down.
Rick frantically nodded and turned to leave.
Jedrick then grabbed on to his phone and called Roger. He needed to know what happened about the deal with the Winston's.
He knew there must be one good news at least for the day to calm his wrecking nerves.
However the mont he answered the call and heard his words his anger spiked up like anything and he threw slamd the phone on the wall.
Even after having his n keeping tab around his target how was he still able to lose.
If not Roger, maybe he wouldn't have learned about Jonathan and Erna. But what about Gabriel holding the deal.
"Argh! I should've killed that useless father's of her. He was of no use." He yelled out in anger.
Jedrick hated losing and it ran deep when it was none other than the people he despise with every fibre in his body.
"Where are you Erna!" His voice thundered breaking every ounce of patience in his mind and all he wants right now was to find her at any cost.
***
Erna shuddered in her slumber, while Jonathan continued to caressed her head and the crease on her forehead cleared.
She was safe and was sleeping.
Inside the silent room, it was her steady breathing that kept the two n sane. However a certain soone had a lot inquire about.
"Let's talk" Kaden said seizing Jonathan's attention and he nodded in response.
