SEDUCING THE DEVIL - Season 2 Episode 95

Day Twenty Two…

~~*****~~

The members of Sawada Clan were surprised to see their leader leaving the hotel together with a young woman.

“Who is the woman with him?” Kazuki, Mr. Hiroshi’s right-hand man said as he watched the CCTV footage of the hotel.

“Perhaps, he was kidnapped by this Lady?” his underling shared his opinion.

“No way! Our clan leader is not that weak to be kidnapped by a woman. It looked like he went out in his own will!” Another subordinate spoke up, analyzing the situation.

Kazuki remained silent, just rubbing his chin. He was racking his brain so hard. Their Leader would never approach a stranger. But what did she do to make Mr. Hiroshi come with her?

They didn’t get a close up shot of the woman’s face. It seemed that the two tried their best to avoid the CCTV cameras in the hotel. Their other guards didn’t even notice them in the hallway. They escaped easily from the bodyguards.

“What shall we do now?” They asked Kazuki.

“The meeting will be held this afternoon at around 1:00 pm. We still have time to track them and bring our leader back here.” Kazuki uttered, checking the current time on the monitor screen.

It was already 9:00 am. They only had 4 hours left before the meeting with the Red Dragon Mafia would happen. They must find Mr. Hiroshi as soon as possible.

“Dispatch all our men to track and chase after them. I’ll give you three hours. I will greatly reward anyone who can bring him back to the hotel within the timeframe I gave you.” Kazuki gave his command.

He would stay in the hotel for a while. He didn’t know what time the Dragon Lord would come to see their Clan Leader. He had to prepare for this meeting while his underlings were looking for Mr. Hiroshi and the woman who accompanied him.

“Got it, Boss! We are leaving now!” The members notified their comrades. They prepared all the vehicles that they would use to search for Mr. Hiroshi.

Though Mr. Hiroshi lived here for thirty years, this land seemed too foreign to him. Who knows, an enemy secretly followed them in this country and would try to harm the leader of Sawada Clan. They must find him as soon as possible.

Nathan was only able to enter the CCTV control room when the other members of the Sawada Clan left. Kazuki and two hotel security staff remained inside the control room.

Kazuki planned on requesting the EDSJ Five Star Hotel management to delete the CCTV footage for Mr. Hiroshi’s privacy when Nathan entered, opposing Kazuki’s request.

“No! You can’t delete them. I am also looking for someone.” Nathan’s stern cold voice was heard from the back. The two security staff and Kazuki turned in his direction.

Kazuki’s brows knitted into a deep frown. He didn’t know Nathan but the hotel security staff recognized him as the CEO of SYP Twilight Corp. Seeing Nathan, the staff didn’t touch nor delete the CCTV recordings.

Kazuki stepped forward to block Nathan. He raised his hand, motioning Nathan not to step further inside as if he was telling him he was not allowed to enter that CCTV control room. “Who are you?”

Nathan just walked past him, not answering Kazuki’s question. Nathan forgot about showing his good manners in front of the Sawada Clan, his mind focused only on finding Abigail right now. He was pissed off since Abigail was intentionally ignoring his calls.

“He is also one of our VIP guests, Mr. Kazuki. He is Mr. Nathan Sparks, the CEO of SYP Twilight Corp.” One security staff answered Kazuki’s query.

Kazuki could tell that the man standing before him was also influential. The security staff listened to Nathan, instead of him.

“Who are you looking for, Mr. Sparks?” The other security staff asked Nathan, assisting him to the monitors.

“My woman,” Nathan declared.

The two security staff were rendered speechless. They didn’t expect that Nathan would bring a woman in the hotel, considering the rumors that he was madly in love with his deceased fiancé, until now he hadn’t gotten over her.

“What kind of hotel is this? Is it natural that your guests are going missing here?” Kazuki was not able to hold himself from saying a side comment about this hotel.

He was put under a lot of stress right now because of Mr. Hiroshi’s disappearance. As his right-hand man, Kazuki had the obligation to keep him safe all the time. He failed to do that since he let his guard down. He had never expected that the old man would sneak out of the hotel.

“We are sorry, Mr. Kazuki. But you can’t blame our hotel if our guests just want to go out.” The security staff surprisingly talked back to him.

EDSJ Five Star Hotel was known for its tight security. Guests always chose this hotel because of the safety and security features of the hotel. So the Security Staff was confident to talk back as he couldn’t see any mistake on their part. The guests were the ones who decided to leave the hotel out of their free will. No one kidnapped them as they could see in the CCTV recordings.

Meanwhile, Nathan was already reviewing the CCTV footage. He spotted Abigail together with Mr. Hiroshi. He didn’t know whether he should feel glad or not after seeing the footage.

He sighed deeply, massaging his temples. He could smell trouble. The members of Sawada Clan seemed to suspect Abigail as the one who kidnapped Mr. Hiroshi.

‘Damn! This woman always creates trouble! Why didn’t she call me? What is she planning? Leaving the hotel with Mr. Hiroshi?’ Nathan regretted showing Abigail Mr. Hiroshi’s picture. If he had known that Abigail would make trouble, he should have never brought her to this hotel.

“You can delete the CCTV footage now,” Nathan ordered the staff. They could only nod and obey his command.

Kazuki gave Nathan a sharp gaze. He couldn’t believe that the security staff listened to Nathan’s order rather than him. ‘I hate this man! He is so arrogant!’

“Did you find her? Your woman?” Kazuki asked Nathan.

Nathan stayed silent. He refused to answer that. How would he tell him that the woman who took away their leader was his woman?

‘I have to find them first before Sawada Clan does!’ Nathan thought to himself.

Kazuki boiled in rage when Nathan completely ignored him. He just left the CCTV control room without saying a word to him.

‘I wanna beat this arrogant guy!’ Kazuki thought to himself, clenching his fists while watching Nathan’s back. ‘Too bad Godfather forbid me from making a ruckus here!’

On the other hand, Nathan immediately contacted his subordinates. He needed backup in finding Abigail and Mr. Hiroshi. Who knew what Sawada Clan would do to her once they found them first?

“Axel? Are you here in the country now?” Nathan asked Axel over the phone.

“Yes, Master. I arrived last night. Where are you? I am here in Sparks Mansion to make a report but you are not around. What–” Axel was not able to finish his words as someone snatched the phone from him.

“Master, good morning! Do you need something?!” Chantha’s voice was heard from the other line.

“Chantha… Axel, create two teams. You have to find Abigail, ASAP!”

‘Eh? What happened to Miss Abi?’
