A female and two guards were in a private area inside the lion criminals' stronghold. She was seated on a chair that was chained together. Her clothing concealed her eyes. She wasn't awake yet. Then one of them took off the clothing that was concealing her eyes.Someone was witnessing the scene live while it was being taped.
Marble was startled when she opened her eyes to discover that she was in a strange setting. She made an effort to remember how she got to this spot, but she kept forgetting things. She was unaware that her memory had been lost from the time she first met Ethan to the moment she was delivered to the kidnappers. She wanted to ask someone where she was, but she instantly swallowed her words when she looked into the eyes of the guards encircling her. Even her father's bodyguards could not match their fierceness.
She finally found the strength to speak, asking "Who did I provoke and why did you take me? Tell me where I am because if my father finds out, you're all gone. but none of them responded to her or even acted scared in the slightest. As soon as she noticed that nothing had changed, she said, "Do you know who my father is, Mr. Jones the owner of the Armza corporation." Then one of them exclaimed, "Hahaha, David Jones is nothing in front of us," while laughing. " He is incomparable to our boss even now. He needs to be here immediately." After that, he slapped her and spit in her face.
She was astounded by this, so she shut her mouth and wiped the drool off her face. This was the first time in her life that she had ever experienced bullying.
"Boss what's the next step?" the bodyguard appeared to be responding to the phone while using earpods.
"Okay, we will do so."
He took another bodyguard at that point, and he moved slightly away from the female.
"the boss said we must wait to see what action will David Jones take."
"okay let's do so."
Then they carried on with their tasks. The young woman had her lips pursed as she considered her next move. She knew not to provoke their boss, who she had learned. She simply awaited the following morning to see what was going to happen.
....
The scene is set at a luxurious mansion atop a small mountain. The morning is very quiet, and the birds can be heard singing melodiously. A girl, dressed in a navy blue flared dress with black formal shoes and a black handbag, walks gracefully to the table and begins to eat breakfast. The chefs had prepared her favorite food, and she enjoyed it thoroughly. Afterward, she asked one of the maids whether their boss was around, to which the maid replied that she hadn't seen him since morning. Suddenly, she heard a hoarse voice saying "Have you missed me so much?" She knew who it was without even looking at him and couldn't help but feel shy. He then invited her to the sitting room to discuss something. They sat on the couch, and Tyran began to lecture her about being careful at work and not trusting anyone. He also told her that he would teach her how to protect herself, he was being like a Dutch uncle and Earnest would train her in some self-defense.
As Tyran was speaking, he noticed the necklace on the girl's neck and told her not to take it off as it was of great use. Minenhle found the interaction between them amusing and was caught between laughing and crying. She agreed with everything Tyran said, and he told her to call him by name. She struggled to say his name casually and apologized for using "sir." Tyran gave her permission to call him "Tee" if she found it difficult. They all laughed, but things became awkward when Tyran unintentionally touched the girl's necklace. Earnest then entered the room, informing Minenhle that it was time to go to work. Tyran was unhappy about it, but Earnest ignored him and continued talking to Minenhle. Tyran reminded her to take care of herself and said he would be absent from work for several days. Minenhle noticed Tyran's disappointment when they parted ways, but there was nothing she could do. It was time for work.
....
Armza Corporation, a portly man was sitting on a chair and had his legs up on the table. He was on a call and appeared to be happy. "Yes, love, we should meet at that hotel tonight. I won't make any fake promises this time. You can have anything you want, you know I always keep my word. There will be no disappointment today," he said sweetly. While he was still talking, someone knocked on the door and entered without waiting for a response. "Boss, there might be some issues with our company. The share price is dropping," the person said.
"What?" the call was cut off. The man stood up and said, "Repeat what you just said."
"I mean, the share price is dropping rapidly and we may lose the company," the person replied.
He was about to look at the document when his assistant interrupted him and said, "Madam's been calling for the past thirty minutes, Sir. I think you should call her back. Also, there's an issue with the company..."
"I already know," Mr. Jones cut him off before he could finish his sentence. He picked up the phone and dialed his wife's number. Before he could say anything, he heard her sobbing on the other end and asked, "Wifey, what's wrong?"
"Our daughter is missing," the voice on the other end replied.
"How can a grown-up woman go missing? When did you last see her?" he asked.
"She didn't return home yesterday night," his wife said.
"I've already told you that I don't want any nonsense with your daughter. You must look after her. Have you searched for her among her friends?" he asked.
"Yes, I have. They said they hadn't seen her yesterday. I think something is suspicious because her cell phone and all the cars are here. I asked her usual bodyguards, but they said they don't remember seeing her leave," his wife replied.
"You see, I always told her not to run away from her bodyguards. Look what happened now. Oh God, where do we start?" he said, sitting at his desk and holding his chin. The table felt like it was hot, and he stood up, throwing objects in his office. The manager who was around ran out for his life. His secretary was the only one left in the office. He tried to control his boss, but the boss started throwing objects at him and shouted, "Get out!" He made a noise that could wake the dead. The personal assistant saw that he would make the whole company suspicious if he stayed here and moved out of the office.
When Mr. Jones noticed that he was alone in the room, he made a phone call and said, "Sir, I'm sorry to trouble you again, but I have big problems that I need your help with."
"What is it? Get straight to the point," said the person on the other end.
"Have you seen the news? The share price of Armza Corporation is still falling. Also, my daughter is missing, and I don't know where she is," Mr. Jones said.
There was sudden silence before the person replied, "Haven't I warned you to be careful? This is the result of your recklessness. It has nothing to do with me."
"But sir..." Mr. Jones tried to say before the person cut him off, "Don't call me again. I have seen that you are a fool, and I can't deal with you anymore. You are useless."
"But sir, if it's the Tyran issue, didn't I do what you told me to do?" Mr. Jones said.
"You were fooled. Tyran is still alive and kicking. I was also blinded. How can a fool like you be even with Tyran?" the person said.
"Tyran was not the one inside that car. I see, so he is the one causing problems for me. But sir, you can't leave me. I made some efforts," Mr. Jones pleaded.
The phone was then cut off without any consideration for him. He then started to see things. With hindsight, it was easy to understand now. The man was just using him and didn't even value him. So he was a fool, as he said.
In a daze, his phone started to ring again. He ignored it, but it continued to ring several times. The truth was he didn't want to hear anything else. He felt as though the world had abandoned him. He was about to find out who had turned on the screen in front of him when he saw a video playing. He noticed a girl tied to a chair, and she looked familiar. He looked closer and saw that it was his daughter. "Mar... ble!" he screamed. The girl looked so pale, and it was truly his daughter. He looked at the surroundings and saw that they were unfamiliar. Suddenly, his phone rang again. It was an unclear voice saying"come to the location I sent you. Remember to come alone"
.After the phone call abruptly ended, the man rose from his chair and immediately headed to the parking lot. He followed the instructions given to him and parked his car far away. He then began walking until he reached the center of the forest.
Upon arriving, he realized that there was no one else present. Growing tired of waiting, he turned around to head back but was suddenly struck on the back of his head with a heavy object. He immediately fell to the ground. Two men emerged from the shadows, picked him up, and carried him to a nearby car. The car drove through a concealed path until it vanished from the forest without leaving a trace.
