***The following morning,Josh was getting ready in front of the mirror that was in his large closet. He kept thinking about the fact that he had been waiting to hear from the bounty hunter about Nathan’s location. Josh needed to find Nathan as fast as he could so that he would get rid of Nathan, but the Bounty Hunter doesn’t seem to be making that easy for him. After he was done arranging his suit, Josh picked up his cellphone as he dialed the bounty hunter’s number.“What’s taking you so long? I thought you said you would be able to find him very fast.” Josh was bold and direct; he wanted to know what was taking Piere so long.“Of course, the thing is, I have found out the country that he is in. Nathan is in a country far away from here, and...” Before Piere could finish his sentence, Josh cut him off.“What country?”“Don’t worry about that for now; I can’t tell you that. I need to get an exact location on him before I can give you the entire detail. Just give me some time; I will
***Meanwhile, Andrei just woke up from his bed in the hotel room that he was in. As soon as he got up, he started thinking about what he would do. He knew that Andrew’s men would be after him. That’s why he made sure that all his staff also exited the building.Suddenly, his cellphone started ringing. He grabbed it and looked at the caller; it was Marius, one of his neighbors who has a house opposite his. He answered the call.“What’s good, Marius?”"Andrei, a couple of men came over to your house last night and were snooping around. They even went into the house and spent a couple of minutes inside. With the way they were moving, I could tell that they were bad people, plus I figured you were not at home. So, I called the police, but before the police could arrive, the men were already gone.” Marius explained calmly.“What do the men look like?” Andrei had an idea that they could be Andrew’s men, but he knew he had to confirm that first before figuring out what to do.“They were all
He knocked on one of the hotel room doors; it had “Room 206” written on it. One of his bodyguards opened the door. He was wearing a black vest and black gloves on his hands. “Good morning, sir.” He did a half bow as soon as he saw that it was Andrei.“Good morning, can I come in?”“Of course, sir.” Andrei entered the room as he sat down on a couch that was at the side of the room.Andrei spoke, gazing at the bodyguard. “Call Bruce here; we need to talk.” The bodyguard rushed out into the restroom as he came out with Bruce, the other bodyguard. They all stood in front of Andrei.“Look, we need to get out of the city as soon as possible. Andrew is currently looking for me, and since he didn’t find me at the mansion last night, he would be searching everywhere, including the airport. So, we won’t be getting out of the city by plane. Instead, we need to get away through the ocean. I need one of you to find a way to prepare a ship for me.”“A ship that would take us out to Bucarest. Would
“Alright, go and get a ship ready; I will pay for everything. Make sure you let me know anything you need.”“Yes sir!” Bruce did a half-bow. Andrei got up from the couch as he told them that he was heading back to his hotel room and that they should come and get him when the ship was ready.Andrei arrived inside his hotel room as he sat down on the edge of his bed. He clasped his hands together and started praying. He prayed that nothing bad should happen to Nathan, as Nathan was his only relative and the only connection he had left to his late mom.“I just hope Nathan is safe.” He mumbled; he was done with his prayer. He hoped that Andrew wouldn’t do anything bad to Nathan and would let Nathan walk out of the whole thing alive.***Meanwhile, back in Belloberg City, Gwen was sitting behind her large desk in her office. She was tapping a pen on her table multiple times. She had been worried about Nathan, and she wondered why Nathan was not coming back into the city and what could be h
***Meanwhile, back in Romania, Nathan was sitting on the ground in a cell in Andrew’s mansion. He had his hands wrapped around his legs. He was feeling cold. Nathan was thinking of what he could do; he knew that if he ever wanted to get out of this situation, he would have to escape from Andrew’s mansion before Andrew took him back to Georgina. He had no idea what he would do after escaping from the mansion, but he knew that he was going to look for help outside and make sure he escaped the country once and for all.He got up on his feet as he started looking around the cell. He was looking for an opening that he could use to escape. He saw an opening. He walked closer to it and saw that the opening requires a key, somewhat similar to the one on his cell door, and he has seen the key with one of Andrew’s men that usually brings food for him.He knew that he would have to wait patiently for the guard to come and deliver food to him, and then he would find a way to take the key away fr
***Meanwhile, in the prison where Andrew kept Nathan, The dimly lit corridor of the cell echoed with the sound of footsteps. One of Andrew’s guards was heading towards the cell, his heavy boots clacking against the cold, hard floor. Nathan sat in his cramped cell, his stomach growling in hunger and his spirits sinking with each passing minute of captivity. But tonight, fate will intervene in unexpected ways. He hoped that his plan to escape would work out.As the guard approached, carrying a tray of meager rations, Nathan's heart quickened with anticipation. He rose from his cot, eager for interaction with the guard. But as fate would have it, the guard stumbled, and the tray clattered to the ground, food splattering across the floor in Nathan’s cell.Nathan's instincts kicked in; this was his chance to steal the key. He lunged forward, pretending to help, but before he could react, the guard's weight bore down on him, pushing him to the ground. Pain shot through Nathan's body as he
"What?" he barked, his voice laced with venom.On the other end of the line, a voice crackled with static, the words coming in short bursts."Andrei," the voice said, the name sending a chill down Andrew's spine. "He's gone, boss. Killed a couple of our guys and escaped on a boat."Andrew's blood ran cold at the news. Andrei, whom he wanted to use as leverage against Nathan, has escaped the city, while Nathan, on the other hand, has also escaped."Fool!" Andrew spat, his rage boiling over. "How could you let this happen?"The voice on the other end faltered, the fear evident in every word."We're searching for him, boss," the voice said hastily. "He couldn't have gone far."But Andrew knew better. Andrei was cunning and resourceful. He wouldn't be caught so easily.With a snarl of frustration, Andrew slammed the phone down, the sound reverberating through the room."Find them," he commanded, his voice cold and hard as steel. "Search every inch of this city if you have to. I want Natha
***The morning sun cast a golden hue over the marina, its rays dancing upon the gentle ripples of the water as Andrew's car pulled into the parking lot. He stepped out onto the concrete pavement, his jaw set in a firm line as he surveyed the scene before him. This was where the trail of what Andrei did had led him. Andrei killed three of his men and escaped.As he made his way towards the marina office, Andrew's mind raced with thoughts of vengeance and retribution. He had come here seeking answers, seeking justice for the men who had lost their lives at the hands of Andrei, but he wasn’t going to make a fuss about it because he still needs Andrei to hold over Nathan. But as he approached the door, a knot of dread tightened in his stomach. Something was amiss.Inside the office, Andrew wasted no time in demanding the information he sought. He needed to know who had aided Andrei in his escape and how Andrei was able to kill his men."I want a list of all the private boats that left th
