A few hours after Claus saw the message. He had left the company and drove speedingly back home with a slight frown on his face.He had tried calling Vera's number but she wasn't answering her phone. “Ezra…. What happened to Vera?” That was the first thing that came into his mouth the instant he alighted from his car and went to the living room inside the mansion.Ezra was seen seated in the living room going through an article with a slight frown on her face, but when she heard Claus's voice, her hands froze slightly, as she looked up at him. “Oh, you are back.” She started as she closed the file and stood up. “When Vera arrived home today I informed her of Evan's departure.”“And after that?” Claus probed. “She stormed off to her room visibly enraged, and after a while, she walked out of her room and took the Range Rover. I do not know where she ran off to, and it has been 2 hours now,” Ezra calmly replied. “Damn it,” Claus cursed silently as he took out his phone to try and see

"Papa?" This single word hung up in the air and was the only thing that echoed in Evan's ears. "W-What did you just call me?" Evan's eyes blinked rapidly and he stared flabbergastedly at the 8 or 9-year-old child before him. Her round sea-green pupils bore at him with nothing but Innocence in them. As though terrified by his reply, the girl's shoulders slumped down as she hung the blanket to her chest, and stared at him with tears slowly weiling up in her eyes. "Why?" She mumbled as she gazed hard at Evan. "Do you hate me?" Evan stood there in shock at how innocent and yet heavy her words were. 'Did she get hurt from the beating? or is she pretending to know me when she doesn't?' Evan frowned as he thought more about her strange behavior. "Why are you silent, papa?" Her soft calm voice sounded in his ears, prompting him to stop thinking and glance at her way. "You must be hungry. I brought you something to eat," Evan cleared his throat slightly as he walked towards her with a

The sound of gunshots echoed through the air as a gigantic military warehouse appeared to come into view. Soldiers could be seen firing in a particular direction... more like... at the two men who were running towards the north. A loud groan escaped from Davis's mouth, as he felt his chest burning in pain. He gasped in fear at the sight of the blood flowing through his chest. Damn it!. How could he have not dodged that? Huge sounds were heard from different directions, and Davis kept looking back at where they were coming from.Sirens blared and one could see some soldiers getting to their positions. He could hear the soldiers's voices clearer from the distance they stood. He was sure they were getting more soldiers notified now. He could hear more voices from the direction they had escaped. "Can you stop glancing back and forth already?!. You will get us killed at this rate! "Evan gritted his teeth hard as he jumped off a rock before them. Davis did the same but landed on his

After his interaction with Rosetta along with the gift she gave to him... Evan had not seen her again. He looked around and asked people if they knew of her but they all gave him the same reply, which was."We do not know any child with that name," One of the elderly men Evan had encountered that day, said with a slight frown on his face. His daughter held onto her father's arm as they walked away from Evan... and by this time, everyone had already deemed him a 'Weirdo'."I wonder where she went to," Evan frowned as he took out his phone to check the message that had just come in, and the sender was Davis. "I have already checked around. I received an Intel that there's an inn where we can gain much information about this place and the base," Davis sent and Evan's brows raised slightly. (Where is it?) Evan asked and then clicked on the send button. (Oh... that was fast. I thought it would take a few hours before I could get a reply from you. Concerning your question, the inn is in

Getting to the mansion of the leader, Evan stood by the gate, staring at the bug mansion before him. he didn't know what to expect yet. Was it a trap or just a peaceful invite from the leader?He went on further, heading to the mansion. Getting to the entrance, the guards stopped him from going any further."Where are you heading to? This is not the right way." One of them with a raspy voice said, staring at Evan from head to toe.He did look suspicious with the way he was covered up. "I am here to see the leader," Evan answered firmly, not batting an eyelash.They were holding dangerous weapons but that never bothered him. All he wanted to do was see the leader and get the hell out of there. "Why should we take you to the leader? What evidence of invite do you have?"Evan dipped his hand in his pocket and brought out the squeezed letter. Although he tried to straighten it up, it amounted to nothing and still looked roughened." he asked in a whisper. But Evan said nothing even when
