Chapter 244 He Will Catch The Bad Guy

Day Twenty Six...

~~*****~~

Nathan and Ethan were now on the way to the hospital. Chantha was the one driving the car. Several bodyguards were escorting them. Nathan had been targeted twice so he should be more cautious about his safety.

Ethan recalled that he hadn't informed Nathan yet about the hacking incident. This was the right time to inform him. But of course, as per Abigail's request, Ethan would omit some information related to Black Rose. He would only inform him about the identity of another hacker.

"Dad! There is something I wanna tell you. Since we need to be honest with each other, I'll tell you what happened a few nights ago." Ethan started the conversation first.

Nathan just looked at him with amusement since his son emphasized the words "We need to be honest with each other!"

"Okay, son. Tell me. What is it?" Nathan was now all ears on him.

"Dad, two nights ago... someone hacked our security system... in one of your Medical Facilities. I fought the hacker using your account," Ethan informed his father.

Nathan was taken aback for a moment. He realized that it was the day when Phantomflake was taken away from his territory.

"I got his account name and his IP address," Little Ethan added. The young boy took his phone and showed Spade's IP address to Nathan.

Nathan felt amused upon seeing the information from Ethan. It was very surprising that Little Ethan was able to counter the hacker and even find out the hacker's IP address and information.

'My son is truly a genius.' Nathan praised his son in his mind. Deep inside, he felt so proud of him.

"I sent a virus to his computer, destroying it!" Ethan said cheerfully.

Nathan could only bob his head. "Good job son. Can you send this to me? I wanna check something."

With this information, Nathan finally found a very important clue about the culprit of Phantomflake's abduction.

Ethan sent those pieces of information to his father. Nathan immediately forwarded Spade's IP address to Axel and the IT team.

*Nathan's Message*

[ Find the location of this hacker named Spade through this IP address. Track him. He was responsible for hacking the security system of the Medical Facility Main Branch during Phantomflake's abduction. ]

'Damn. How can I fix this? I already told Cherry and mentioned Phantom's Assassin Guild. But I have to deny this from Nathan. What alibi should I tell them both?' Abigail rubbed the space between her brows.

"I know this is not the appropriate time to ask you this... however, I will not be able to hold my curiosity. I need answers, Abigail. Can you please tell me... how did you become a member of Phantom's Assassin Guild? I have never seen you before." Cherry began asking Abigail.

Abigail looked at her eyes and said, "Cherry... I will tell you another time. Not now. Just please trust me. I'm one of your sisters. Do you trust a stranger more than me?" Abigail was referring to Spade and the Red Dragon Mafia.

Cherry felt silent for a moment, contemplating. She wanted answers but she would like to respect Abigail. If she was not yet willing to talk about this, then she would wait for her.

She would trust her now. Abigail knew her and Phantomflake so she would choose to trust her more than those men.

"Okay. I will trust you. But I am just worried about Sis Phantom. I am dying to see her. And she is now in the Red Dragon Mafia's territory." Cherry was saddened at the thought that she wouldn't be able to see Phantomflake just yet.

Abigail's lips curled up into a reassuring smile and replied, "Don't worry. It will not take long before we can take her back. Just believe me. Phantomflake will not stay longer in their territory. Someone will get her back soon."

Abigail just needed to hear updates from Bam-Bam. After that, she would help Nathan to get her body back. She would also use this opportunity to get closer to him. She had to gain his trust further.

She never knew until when Nathan would doubt her identity. She didn't want Nathan to treat her as an enemy otherwise, she would be kicked out of the mansion. Worst case... she would fail her mission and die after the One Hundred Days.

The two just finished talking about Phantomflake when they heard a knock. Abigail and Cherry turned in the direction of the door.

"Come in," Cherry mumbled. She wondered if Aiden finally returned. She was ready to beat him up.

When the door was pushed open, Nathan and Ethan came into their view. The father and son were the visitors.

"Miss Abi!!!" Ethan's voice resounded in the VIP ward. He ran as soon as he saw Abigail. His face was covered with worries and concerns for her.

"Ethan," Abigail called him out as well. She was happy to see him. When she got shot, she couldn't understand why she suddenly thought about Ethan. She wondered what Ethan would feel if she would die. She started to genuinely care about the young boy... including his father, Nathan.

'Maybe, I was thinking of Ethan when I protected his father,' Abigail thought to herself, still denying that she did it for Nathan.

Upon reaching her, Ethan climbed on the bed and hugged Abigail as he cried in her arms. Nathan and Cherry were about to stop Ethan, thinking that Abigail might get hurt from that hug. Her arm injured arm was pressed in between her and Ethan. However, Abigail just motioned Nathan and Cherry to stay quiet and let Ethan be. She could endure the pain as long as it was for Ethan.

Nathan and Cherry just looked at her worriedly. But this scene touched their hearts. Anyone who would witness the interaction between Abigail and Ethan would think that they were like mother and son.

"Miss Abi... I thought I would never see you again. Please don't get hurt anymore. I can't forgive myself if something bad happens to you." Little Ethan was sniffing and sobbing as he talked.

Abigail smiled softly and rubbed Ethan's back. "Don't cry, Ethan. I'm just fine. See, I'm alive. Rest assured that whoever did this to me, your father will catch the bad guy and punish him." Abigail glanced at Nathan meaningfully.

When their eyes met and saw her smile, Nathan's heart skipped a beat. He felt like the heavy burden in his heart was lifted. Abigail was now safe.

"Yes. I promise... I will catch the bad guy and punish him," Nathan said, not breaking their eye-to-eye contact.
