Chapter 6 - Chapter 8

"I'm just looking after you to make sure nothing goes wrong." 

"Oh so now you care. If you are that worried about me, find my wife and daughter!" Damien exclaimed.

"Actually, there's something I would like to talk to you about."

"If it's not about Black getting fired, I don't want to hear it. The only thing I want to hear from you is that you're applying all the right resource to do the task that I assigned you with as of recently. My wife and daughter are important."

"I understand you sir, which is why I would like you to please calm down. Apparently, there's word regarding your wife and daughter. Black found a clue." Baby said, not going directly to the point even though she knew what was said. At this moment, she had to be wise. There was a huge family matter involved in the situation and If there was no evidence to prove what was being said, she could lose her job, and knowing the extent of Damien's influence, her life could turn into a living hell and Damien could potentially cause her to not find a job anywhere else in the world.

"Black did what?" Damien asked with his eyes widened as he watched Baby. 

"He found a clue, sir." Baby said really carefully while watching Damien's reaction.

Just then, Black stepped into the hallway.

"Boss," he chirped loudly, getting the attention of Damien and Baby who were literally in a staring competition.

They both broke away from staring at each other and focused on Black who had just arrived. "I think you might want to hear this sir, it's about your wife and daughter."

Damien seemed to calm down a bit once he heard that. "Let's talk in my office," he said.

Once all three of them were in the office, Damien gestured to Black to sit on the chair in front of him.

"Go ahead,"

"Yes sir,"

"Keep in mind that I'm only hearing you out because my family means a lot to me. However, if you end up saying to me stupid news I assure you that you're not going to step out of my office alive because I'm going to skin you to death myself." 

Black gulped but then he brought out a brown envelope from his back pocket and handed it over to Damien. Damien accepted the envelope without looking in its contents.

"On the day of your wife and daughter's kidnap, I found some men in Lucian group had also gone missing."

"Peharps it's a coincidence," Damien said without thought.

"That was what I thought too untill I did my research. Lucian's men are never dispatched without a reason."

"So?" Damien asked, paying attention to every word coming out of Black's mouth.

"Since the day of your wife's and daughter kidnap, they haven't been sighted. Don't you find it strange?"

Damien hesitantly began to uncover the envelope, then he looked through the pictures. In one of the pictures, a specific guard was right by Lucian's side.

"His name is David, he's always with his boss, Lucian, but as of recently, he's been nowhere to be found. This is a big deal." Black said. "It's kind of like Baby who's managing your work for you. When you need her at important places, she can go there for you and represent you. That's who David is to Lucian so it would make sense that David and the others are at the crime scene right now."

"So you're trying to say that my son-in-law is responsible for the kidnap of my wife and daughter?" Damien asked as he kept looking through the pictures.

"Exactly, boss." Black said confidently.

A new rage arose within Damien as he stood on his feet.

"Baby?" He said.

"Yes boss," She answered.

"Did you know about this?"

Baby bowed her head, "Yes, Black told me over the phone."

Black looked at Baby with a glare. "No wonder you brought a bodyguard to stand near my office," he murmured before saying, "Then why didn't you tell me when you saw Lucian leaving? That bastard dare mocks me by coming to my office even after what he's done,"

"I didn't know how to tell you without having proof," I said and he grunted, "No bother. I'm going to hunt that son of a bitch down and kill him myself!"

"Black," he said.

 "I'm here!" 

"Good. I want you to keep tracking where those bastards are. Contact Baby after you find new information."

"Yes sir!"

"And Baby, report exactly what you hear from Black without hesitation."

"Right."

"Now assemble all my people, we're going to Lucian's residence to get back my wife and daughter!"

"Of course, sir."

Soon after, the company's parking lot was crawling with vehicles containing Damien's men. Then Damien himself got into his Lamborghini vehicle and they all drove off into Lucien's residence.

Once they arrived, Damien's men got off the vehicle and started to fight Lucien's men. The scene soon became bloody as Damien stepped over the blood of one of Lucien's guard and walked to the entrance of Lucian's mansion.

"Hmm," Damien thought out loud to himself as his shoes dirtied the clean floors of Lucian's house. Somehow, Damien found his way into Lucian's spacious office where he was looking through his files.

Lucian looked up and his gaze met Damien's.

"What are you doing here? I just dropped by at your office. Did you miss me so soon, Father-in-law?"

"If you really consider me as Father-in-law… Then tell me why you would do such a devious blood such as kidnapping my wife and daughter?"

"What are you…"

"No need to pretend, I have all of the evidence." Damien slipped the brown envelope he'd receive from Black on the table.

Lucian picked up the envelope and looked through the pictures.

Damien could tell that Lucian did not understand what the proof was so he proceeded to speak. "The man in the picture with you is almost always by your side. Yet, he hasn't been seen since the day my wife and daughter was kidnapped."

"He could have just been transferred to a different jurisdiction temporarily. It happens that way sometimes when there are no new hands to help in regards to some goods."

"Then confirm what I've just said and you'll know that I'm telling you the truth."

"One moment," Lucian said and went over to his telephone which was right on his desk. He began to dial a number, but halfway, he stopped to sniff the air. Blood. He could smell that there was a bloody war outside and that Damien was not here for games. He aimed to fight. Even the back of his shoes were stained with blood.

"What is this?" He wondered to himself. How could my own men be responsible for my father-in-law's wife kidnap, and my wife too? It didn't make any sense. He'd search all over for them but didn't find out any news yet. However, his gut feeling told him that both Damien's wife and his wife were alive and that the person they were under the custody of probably wanted some money.

Lucian was about to say something to Damien when the call was answered.

"Hello Boss,"

"This is Lucian," he answered. "I would like to make an enquiry about David."

"Of course, boss."

"Have you seen him since the seventh of August?" Lucian asked.

"Boss, David and a few others have been nowhere to seen since the seventh of August. Didn't you dispatch them to carry out an errand for you, Boss?"

"I did no such thing." Lucian said, feeling a bit stressed that the possibility of Damien's words were correct. But at the same time, it still didn't make any sense that his people could be responsible for the kidnap.

"Find out for me where David is? Find out the location of the others too that are missing."

"Roger that, Boss."

Just at that moment, Baby entered into the office and looked at Damien with an astounded look on her face.

"Baby, why are you here? Any news?"

"Yes," she replied, her voice seemingly out of breath. "Black caught David and is bringing him over here for questioning,"

Lucian's gaze hardened and he spoke into the telephone. "Nevermind." Then he slammed the telephone back into its original position.

"If you'll allow me, Father-in-law, let me question David myself."

"And why would I allow you to do that?"

"Because your family is my family. Remember this sir, your wife is not the only one that is missing. My wife is too!"
