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
The police begin to realize that scenario is too hard to accept. Unless those kidnapers were absolutely sure that the person they met on the street would drive that car for them, they won’t try that kind of diversion.Not to mention there’s someone tailing them behind, which was Alex. Kidnappers who are on the run won’t do such a thing with foreigners.“They won’t do this, unless that man is their own friends,” Alex tries to convince them. “The risk is too high if they simply use a foreigner they just met on the street.”The officer on the right averts his attention to his partner who is sitting on the left. And that one partner simply gives him a nod.“There’s a high chance that the homeless guy is one of them. The possibility is there,” that one cop on the left affirms.“But he
Three officers appear, with one of them walking in front of the other two. That one clearly has a higher position as seen from the rank and medals on his uniform.And from the way he approaches Alex, it’s clear he is maintaining his authority by slightly lifting his chin and holding his belt with both hands. It seems he is somewhat displeased with Alex, after hearing how arrogant Alex had been during the previous interrogation.“So, are you the one who tried to hunt those kidnappers?” asks that officer with an uninterested gesture.Alex turns around, and realizes that this one officer doesn’t show any hospitality in his face when trying to start a conversation.Alex doesn’t say a word, simply gazing straight at that officer’s eyes. And so, that officer with the curly yellow hair and a thick mustache puts out his hand and introduces himself t
Sofia couldn’t refute those words. She can only stand there, trying her best to hold her cries. She has admitted her mistake before. But she is still so disappointed that Alex denied her apology. And it’s because of that disappointment, she feels so reluctant to let Alex get involved in her matter regarding Elly’s situation. “I came to you, asking you to come back to us,” she says with a shaking voice. “But you denied me. You denied your daughter! Now you can’t just talk like Elly is still your daughter. I don’t even know who to trust anymore. Maybe Georgina was right. You kidnapped my daughter only to punish me.” Giana appears and feels so sympathetic with her situation. She slowly approaches Sofia and then rubs her shoulders trying to calm her down. On the other hand, Georgina just stands on the other side of the car. She smiles by averting her face away, hiding how satisfied she is with that development. She believes she has done enough to spark another conflict between those t
