Seven o'clock at night!

Bryan had just arrived at the base, he stepped into the base with a firm step. His men followed behind.

As soon as he entered, Bryan's gaze fell on one of his men who was tied to a rope in the corner of the room. His face was covered in wounds, a sign that Farel had been beaten.

"Farel, what's going on?" Bryan asked in a stern voice. "Where's Daren?" he asked.

"Sorry, Boss, he... he ran away," Farel said in a weak voice.

"WHAT? So, you let him get away?" Bryan asked in a cold voice, his eyes narrowed in anger. He couldn't believe that his enemy had managed to escape.

"Sorry, Boss. Daren managed to break his bonds. He attacked me before I realized it. He was... he was so strong that I was defeated," Farel explained, telling his boss the truth.

Bryan growled, holding back the anger burning in his chest. "You're incompetent! How could you let our prisoner escape?" Bryan scolded.

    Daren returned to the mansion, where his father was accompanied by a nurse. Daren's condition was still not fully recovered, so he also needed rest. Even his work at the office was still handled by Make. "Farel, have you contacted your son and wife?" Daren asked Farel who was sitting at the back of the mansion near the swimming pool. Farel turned his head when he heard Daren's voice questioning his son and wife. "You forgot, Daren? I don't have a cell phone anymore. How can I contact my children and wife?!" said Farel. The mansion did have a sat phone, but Farel hadn't memorized his wife's contacts. That's what made it difficult for Farel to communicate with his family. Daren understood Farel's predicament. Daren would keep Farel in his mansion before Make got a luxury house for Farel that was located not far from Davidson's branch company in Rome. "Okay! Where is your home address, Farel?

    The night sky hung with an aura of tension. Daren stood on the balcony of his palatial mansion, staring into the distance with a sharp gaze. Behind him, Make stood with his arms folded."Young master, the report from our men has arrived," Make said in a calm yet firm voice."Just tell me... ""Farel's daughter and Farel's wife Aneeta have been kidnapped by Bryan's men. They were ambushed on the way. Our men were beaten to a pulp!" reported Make. "Damn it!" cursed Daren.

    Varro had been transferred to the Davidson Mansion. For his father's safety, Daren had made his father's room into an infirmary. In fact, Daren also hired two nurses and a doctor to stay at the mansion until his father's condition was fully recovered. Although Varro's condition had stabilized, he had yet to open his eyes.

Daren showed Alan the contents of the text message.Alan nodded seriously. "Yes, Young Master Davidson. I will begin my investigation immediately," Alan said.

"The sender tried to hide his identity carefully, but I have already gotten the last location of the IP used," he explained after a few hours.Sloppy! Yes, the person who had threatened Daren had been very careless. Daren checked the last address. It was located in a remote village in the middle of the forest, far away from civilization.
