Day Fifty-One...
~~*****~~
"What did you just say?" Nathan had conflicting thoughts right now. His mind didn't want to absorb what had just been said by now.
Chantha and Violet exchanged glances with one another. They were also surprised when they heard Axel's last remarks. They knew that Syphiruz Mafia had been eyeing to form an alliance with the Sawada Clan for years.
They had to curry the favor of Mr. Hiroshi, the godfather of the Sawada Clan, by finding his missing daughter. And who would have thought that Phantomflake might be the missing daughter?
"Is this a good thing or a bad thing?" Chantha whispered to her twin sister. The two ladies had been observing Nathan's reaction. They saw his mixed emotions. Maybe he was flabbergasted by this.
"Both!" Violet stated matter-of-factly. "Good... because if Phantomflake is the missing daughter, this means our Supreme Leader succeeded in his task given by Mr. Hiroshi. But the bad thing is that... Phantomflake is his mortal enemy. He wants to kill her. And now, we are torturing her. How do you think Mr. Hiroshi will respond once he learns that we hurt and torture his daughter?"
"This will become a war between Syphiruz and the Sawada Clan." Joker butted in.
The two ladies looked at him, taking a deep sigh.
"Then we should keep this a secret from the Sawada Clan. We can't tell them we found Mr. Hiroshi's daughter. Through this, we can avoid the war." Spider suggested.
"I don't think our Supreme Leader will be intimidated by the Sawada Clan. He is stubborn. If he wants revenge, then he will do it his own way." Violet also expressed her thoughts.
Chantha bobbed her head in agreement with her twin sister. Nathan wouldn't care about going against a big organization. If he wanted to avenge the death of his beloved woman, Nathan would even kill Mr. Hiroshi's daughter. That's what they thought about their Supreme Leader.
Nathan went back to the Dark Room to finish his conversation with Phantomflake. However, to his surprise, the woman sitting in the chair had fallen asleep. She was so exhausted from the torture she received from Spider. Her physical body was still trying to adjust. She was still frail and weak.
Furthermore, Jane finally let her guard down when she saw Nathan. She felt secure just seeing his presence and she finally let her body fall asleep. She didn't fight the dizziness and sleepiness anymore. For some unknown reason, she found her comfort because of Nathan's arrival.
Spider and Joker stepped forward to carry Jane when Nathan stopped them using his hand gesture. Then he looked at Stephen, his right-hand man, motioning him to carry Jane, instead of the two men.
Axel quickly followed Nathan's every command. Axel removed the cuffs binding her hands and feet. And just when he was about to lift her up, Nathan removed his jacket and used it to cover Jane's soaked body.
"Chantha, Violet... make sure to change her clothes. Let her rest for a while. We will continue the interrogation with the truth serum... tomorrow." Nathan notified the ladies.
Everyone was puzzled why Nathan suddenly became generous toward Phantomflake. He even let her use his own jacket to cover up her upper body.
Even Nathan didn't know why he acted that way. His body just reflexively moved on its own accord.
Maybe, subconsciously, he remembered that this woman was important to his best friend, Stephen. Or maybe, because she might be Mr. Hiroshi's daughter. Nathan wasn't certain about either of the two. Or perhaps, he thought that Phantomflake was a bit different from the assassin he knew before.
'Does the life or death situation change her? She's been a coma for two years.' Nathan thought to himself as he watched Phantomflake being transferred to another prison room.
"Boss, you shouldn't be here. You must go back to the hospital. You haven't completely recovered yet," Violet approached Nathan.
"It's fine. I have a score to settle. I must confront Phantomflake, myself."
Violet and Chantha just nodded their heads.
"Anyway. Did Madam Lu confess?" Nathan recalled the second reason why he went there.
"Yes. She confessed to hiring another hitman to hurt Abigail. I already dispatched our elite team for this manhunt. They are now tracking the hitman's location." Violet informed Nathan.
But Nathan still had a nagging feeling. Aside from Madam Lu, there was another person behind Abigail's accident before. What if they were still targeting her until now? But what was the real motive?
