158 I CAN HAVE YOU KILLED

Ann looks around to see if there are other people besides the two that kidnapped them.

Lucky it's only two of them, she needed to find a way to escape. But if she does survive, what about the other girl. Think! Think! Think of something before other's arrives. Ann told herself.

The Gangster did not tie her or put a blindfold; she was free to move around without being detected. She searched her hospital robe to see if her cell phone was inside. Exploring little by little, then...she felt something; it's her cell phone.

Good, now she just needed to figure out the numbers, she can't pull it out for the gangster might find out she's already awakened. She slowly pressed the numbers; luckily she has her phone in silence where there's no sound coming out. *Dut, dut, dut.* that should be it, she thought.

Suddenly, Ann realizes that if Jeff pick-up the phone, the gangster might hear the voice. She hurried up and pressed to hang up the phone.

Hospital surveillance room:

Jeff's phone started buzzing inside his suit jacket that's currently hanging at one of the chairs. He's busy checking the surveillance footage and missed the call.

Ethan was helping Ronald calm Lea who's now crying her heart out. Suddenly remembered that he's on the way to Don-Don's room. He went to where Jeff was, busy looking at the footage. "Brother, I have something I need to do first, it would be just for a moment. If by chance you find something, call me alright!"

Ethan was about to leave when he saw something on the screen. "Wait! Go back to the last footage." He looked carefully to see if his eyes were deceiving him. What he saw was Eva going into the elevator with Ann. It occurred to him that Ann was not the target, it was Eva all along.

"Brother! I think I know who kidnapped sister-in-law. You see that girl right there." He pointed into the screen.

"What about that girl! If she has anything to do with this, she's going to die by my hand." Jeff said it full of anger.

"No! No! And Yes! Ah!!! I don't know how to say this, but she does, and she doesn't have anything to do with sister-in-law getting kidnapped." Ethan was trying to explain.

"Ethan! You better make it clear what you're trying to say, I do not understand a word you're saying." Jeff is now yelling for everyone to hear.

"Brother, It's a long story, and we don't have time for that right now. What's important right now is for us to rescue them before they get hurt.

Jeff grabs Ethan collar. "You're telling me that it's not my wife they are after but that girl?"

Ethan nodded with a worried look on his face.

Jeff dragged him, still holding onto his collar walking out the surveillance room. " Do you know where they might have taken them? You better be, if anything happens to my wife and child...God only knows."

"Brother!!! Can you please, let go of my collar! We can get there faster if you let go of me, you know!" Ethan was yelling at Jeff in return.

Ronald and Lea were following the two brothers along with Jeff's elite bodyguards. "Did I heard it right? It was not Ann they wanted but the other girl." Lea asked Ronald

"It seems that way, we better hurry and catches up with them" Ronald grabbed hold of Lea's hand and started running after Jeff and Ethan.

Once they arrived at the parking lot, Jeff ordered Lea and Ronald to take a different car. Lea would not have it; she wanted to ride with the two brothers.

"Lea, it's dangerous. It's better if we follow alright!"

"No!, I want to ride with them, what if we lose them? I can't have that." Lea argued yelling at the same time.

"Boss! Can we please ride with you?" Ronald pleaded with Jeff while looking at Lea who's hysterically crying.

Jeff looks at Lea then to Ronald. "Alright! But make sure she's not in a way, I don't want any obstruction with this mission. You got it?"

"Yes, Sir!" Ronald replied happily.

Eva finally awakened, she couldn't see anything, but she can hear voices.

She heard the gangster talking about the other girl that got kidnapped with her, and she started feeling bad. It's because of her that the other girl is in trouble she needed to something.

"Hello! Guys, can you please! take out my blindfold and let's talk." Eva yelled at the gangster.

"Sorry! Miss Eva, no can do! Boss said to keep you blindfolded until he gets here." One of the gangsters replied.

"Come on! Guy's I want to talk, and it's hard when I can't see who I'm talking too." She yelled back.

The two gangsters just ignored her and started to pissed Eva off. "Look you guy's; you know your boss likes me right? It's the reason why I'm here right now. If you don't do as I say and someday I become your Boss woman, I could get you all killed." Eva threatened the two gangsters.

"You know it could happen; she could become the boss woman. What do you think, should we remove the blindfold or not?"

"Up to you! It's your Ass that would be on a line, not mine."

Ann was listening to the conversation the whole time. 'So, she was kidnapped not for ransom but because the boss has hots on her. It's absurd; I'm here laying in a cold ass hard ground because the boss of this gangster likes her.'

Ann was contemplating if she should let them know that she's awake or keep on acting asleep. She was still debating when she heard a loud bang. The door was busted wide open; someone came in. She couldn't see who entered; her eyes were shut pretending she's asleep.

A footstep was coming in her direction...
