Boris feels a little regret for provoking Sofia's anxiety in that direction. He has no choice but to share a bit with her just to ease her worry. “Actually, the real target is not Elly, but Alex. However, they could just avert their attention to you and Elly, if they know you both are still connected to him,” explains Boris. “Who are these people you are talking about? What has Alex done with them that put him into this situation?” inquires Sofia impatiently. “Nothing is certain so far, not even Alex himself knows about them.” “Stop pushing around the bush, Boris!” Sofia scolds him. “It’s clear there’s something with him. Just tell me now everything you know. I don’t care if it’s just speculation or his unclear anxiety. I need to know!” Boris takes a deep breath once, without hiding his unenthusiasm. “His house was attacked recently by some unknown people. And they wrecked havoc inside it, breaking all the antique items your dad gave to Alex as gifts in the past.” Sofia’s a bit
But George still sits there. As a father, who has not seen his children for so long, he feels powerless to avoid this meeting. It only makes Georgina even more uncomfortable and begins to look impatient. “Why are you still sitting there? If she finds out you're here, everything could be screwed up. You'd better leave now before she really realizes who you are.” “I'm sure she already recognizes me. After all, I'm her father,” argues George coldly. “You idiot, you've left her for more than 10 years. You think you're still the dashing and macho man you used to be?” George just remains silent, not even moving from his seat. Georgina is forced to look away and begins to act as normal as possible as if she never notices her daughter’s arrival. And there, Giana stands right beside them. Only then does Georgina put on an act like she is surprised by her sudden appearance. “Giana?” “Hi, Mom! What’s this? A secret date?” asks the girl curtly with a cold face. When Giana averts her atten
That same day, Alex is still trying to figure out George Bradley's whereabouts. Even though he had been part of the Vega family for a long time, he doesn’t know much about him. In the past, he hadn’t been acquainted with George for a year before sending that man to prison.Even when he tries to ask Elijah through the phone, to that old ex-gardener who had worked for Rodolfo Vega for a long time, he still gets no clue.[He no longer had any family, I believe. And about his friends, he had so many, and most of them are people with troubles. But I don’t think any of them can be really considered as true friends. You know how pompous he is, always treating all his friends like his lackeys]“Well, I don’t know that much about his connection,” says Alex.[What about the woman he visited in the past, the lover he used to visit before he got to jail the second time? Didn’t you find him there before?]“I’ve tried to check that house again a few times. That woman has already had another man, an
There are profiles of 8 men in the file that Adam gave Alex. That same day, Alex heads to the house of one of the closest ones.He doesn’t do much, but it takes time. He simply stalks the house from a distance, only to confirm the possibility of George being there. It's really a boring activity, but that’s the only thing he can do, before he moves to the next target.Only on the third day does he check on Teddy McDonald's place. He visits this place during the night with Boris.He is stalking Teddy’s house by parking his car in a dark place under one big tree. This is quite effective in reducing the risk of being noticed. And sure enough, they see George coming out of the house with his partner.“Is that him?” asks Boris by squinting his eyes. “He looks so different.”“Yes, he is much thinner now,&rdquo
George’s face turns pale as he feels so intimidated, feeling so sure Alex will kill him if he provokes him any further. Hence, he simply pleads to spare his dear life. “No, please! Don’t kill me. I, I don’t know what you are talking about? I don’t even know where you live,” he cries. That answer actually makes Alex so annoyed and irritated. He really wants so badly that it was George who did it. “I know you always despised me, motherfucker! Why are you pleading now? I exposed your scam, I sent you to prison. I know you resent me so much.” He forces George to admit, even thrusting the karambit deeper on George’s shoulder. “We are not done yet, huh? Isn't that what you said? Let settle this then!” But still, that man only repeats the same pleading. “I don't know what you are talking about. Please, let me go! I swear to God with my kids' name, I don't even know where you live.” “Fuck you! You and your kids are all the same!” He slowly tortures him even more simply by moving his kara
But oddly, he turns away and cancels his intention to visit the manager’s office. He gets back to his car, and calls that manager to come to him. Mila comes to Alex outside, and simply informs about the situation in the pub, and of course, including Dylan who opts to keep working for them. “So, he is still working in this pub, huh?” “You want me to fire him?” asks Mila. Alex shakes his head. “Does he know that I’m the boss in this place?” “He knows. He has told me everything, including about the issue he has with you.” “And he still wants to work here?” “He has no other place to go. He even said he is looking forward to the day when he can fight you again.” Alex is taken aback by that last one. He simply shakes his head with some silly smile before taking his leave. Even after that one, he is still driving around the city. It’s like he is avoiding his house for some reason. Maybe he is too anxious with the people who after his life, while he has no idea who they are at all.
Alex can’t hear clearly what the kid is crying for. But he knows what might have just happened. He keeps observing that one old SUV while crossing the street without taking his attention away. He doesn’t even pay any attention to his surroundings, until one minivan hits him. Luckily, the car manages to stop before hitting him, so Alex doesn’t hurt that bad. That car horns so long, but Alex just gets up and ignores it. “Hey! What’s wrong with you!” The driver of that car takes his head out and shouts in madness. “Are you out of your mind?” But Alex just keeps walking toward that crying girl. “Mr. Davis! They took Elly,” cries the girl. All the other parents have also become so hectic because of what that girl has just said. But they seem all moving like in slow motion in Alex’s perspective. One of them, the one nearest to Alex, is already calling the police. But none of her hectic voice enters Alex’s ears, as he is trapped in his own dimension. He is starting to lose his composu
Believing that his anxiety has affected his ability to observe the situation, he tries to regulate his breathing to regain back his composure.But still, he can’t think of anything else, but believing that the car is the exact same SUV which took his daughter.“There’s no one here. Are you sure this is the car?” asks Boris.“They must have switched cars. Shiiit!”Alex looks so annoyed, believing the people who took his daughter must have already gone so far.He has been following that SUV and dealing with that man for more than 10 minutes now. That’s long enough that he believes it’s almost impossible to track down the kidnappers.He averts his attention back to that man with the long messy hair. He approaches him with stiff steps, and then forces that man to get up. He punche
