Chapter 175 - Brokton

''I'm Shirley a representative of Active Re-Generational Genes and Rare Blood Group of Asper Group which was formed by August Maijune. Hi, Mr. Sun, we meet again''

''Hi, Shirley. I didn't know you were in City X already?''

''I needed to do my homework first before meeting you. I found where Daniel is hiding your mom, Natalie and it is not the hospital basement''

''What do you mean? If they aren't there, then where did he send my mother?''

''Your old home in Brokton''

''Brokton? He sent my mother all the way to Brokton? For what?''

''Shirley, what else do we need to know?''

''There are about 200 men guarding your old home and they are armed''

''Whoa, who knew Daniel Song had so many people guarding him? He isn't bankrupt then, since he can afford such number of people'' Alice chuckled.

''We will be outnumbered even if all of us go there'' Xia said.

''But… I have a way of distracting and dividing them. If detective Wales help me out of course'' Shirley smirked.

''What do you need me to do?'' Wales asked her.

''We will talk about it alone…'' Shirley turned to Mimi and asked, ''Mimi Song, right?''

''Yes?''

''Apparently, your father asked me to bring you to him. He thinks you are still at the hospital. He wants you to use this card and go to the bank and take all the money in his account and bring it to him'' Shirley said and placed a black card in Mimi's hand.

''This… this is his card for his foreign bank. He has been saving that money since I was little. It is not a small amount''

''How much is in that card?'' Mikael asked.

''About 100 billion dollars''

''Whoa!''

''He isn't bankrupt. This means he was simply putting the money into his foreign account for a day like this. To think that he even wanted to take the money my mother worked for and add it to this''

''Daniel Song is really greedy''

Natalie's phone buzzed and the hall turned silent. She looked at it and showed it to everyone.

''It's Daniel Song'' Natalie said to them.

''Answer it'' Mikael said to her.

Natalie answered the call and kept it on loud speaker.

''Hello, Mr. Song…''

''Natalie, you must have noticed that your mother is missing, right?'' Daniel said over the phone.

''Yes, I came to your house and was told you two went on a vacation. Is my mother with you?''

''Your mother is with me, but I can give her to you in exchange for yourself. Guess where we are, Natalie?''

''Where are you? Where is my mother?''

''We are in Brokton, specifically your hometown, your former house. It's still the same, Natalie''

''Daniel, what are you doing there with my mother? What do you want?''

''Don't act innocent with me, Natalie. I know you remember everything. You've been keeping it together for a while. Did you think I wouldn't find out? Guess how I found out?''

Daniel chuckled. He seemed to be walking away as he spoke on the phone.

''You and your mother had such a hearty talk in the car. You spoke about how you were going to protect her from me. Let's see how you save her, Natalie. Come on, catch me if you can''

Natalie's hand clenched around the phone. ''Hey, you piece of trash. If you do anything to my mother, I will kill you''

''Why don't you see her first before cussing me out, Natalie. I will be waiting for you. If you come with someone, I will consider that you've broken the rule. You might just end up seeing only her body; your mother's dead body, I mean''

''Hey! Hey…'' Natalie yelled after the call ended.

''Natalie calm down'' Mikael pulled Natalie closer, trying to comfort her.

''Mikael, that psychopath has my mother. Who knows what he plans on doing to her. No, I have to go there. I don't care how dangerous it will get, I need to get my mother away from that psychopath'' Natalie said as her eyes teared up.

''Natalie, we will save your mother. I promise, nothing will happen to her'' Mikael hugged her.

''I will go with you. She is also my mother. I also want mom to be safe'' Mimi spoke.

'What are you going to do? Your father just gave you his card. Are you not planning to sell us out and run away with him after taking the money? I can't believe we trusted her and told her our plans'' Alice asked Mimi.

''Alice, I know. I know that you are prejudiced against me but I stayed with Mom all my life and I loved her. You are right, I am planning to run away with this card but not until I make sure that mom is fine. I am not going to give a single pin to my father. This money belongs to me now''

''You are smarter than I thought'' Shirley commented and smiled.

''Listen, I know it is hard to trust me and I am not asking you to trust me. we all have something we want, mom. I am not going to abandon her. she took care of me and even though I used her a lot of the time, she still supported me and gave me a lot of courage. I promise to get out of your air after we rescue mom. Shirley, when can we leave?''

''Tonight. If we leave tonight, we can arrive at Brokton by morning tomorrow'' Mikael said to them.

''Then, I suggest everyone should go home and get some rest. We will leave tonight''

''Sister, I won't be able to go with you because I have a scene to shoot tonight, but, you need to be careful. Mikael, please protect my sister''

''Don't worry, nothing will happen to me'' Natalie hugged Alice.

''Natalie, I will let Connor send some of his men to help you when you are leaving. Karl is still with me, so I can't go with you''

''Mm, don't worry''

''Detective Wales, let's chat outside. Natalie, Mikael, I will return with Detective Wales when it's time to leave''

''Alright, Shirley''

''Then, I will go back and take a nap'' Mimi said to them hurried away to the guestroom.

Mikael hugged Natalie and brushed her hair backwards saying, ''relax. nothing will go wrong. I will make sure we get your mother back safely''

''What exactly does he want? Why is he after me?''

''Natalie, there is something I need to tell you. I met with your mother a week ago and we talked about you''

''Me? What did you talk about?''

''Let's go to the room. I will tell you about it''

…

''I didn't remember all these details. My mom… I thought she abandoned me because my father was bankrupt. She did all this for me. I feel so…''

''It's not your fault, Natalie''

''My mom… she spent more than 15 years with a monster and I thought she hated me. I thought she didn't want me.

Zeya entered the dressing room and looked at Niania, ''Niania, what is wrong with your Miss?''

''Sister Zeya, we just arrived but she looks bad. She said she wants to go with her sister to Brokton''

''Leave us alone'' Zeya said to Niania and went to sit next to Alice, ''hey, wake up. Is this the place to sleep?''

''Leave me alone. You totally forgot about me now that you are dating Sebastian, right?'' Alice opened her eyes and looked at Zeya.

''We are not dating. We were just shooting some promotional videos for the company. How are you? Is everything alright?''

''No. I'm not fine. Aye, a lot of things are happening at the same time. I feel like I'm going insane''

''Aye, being moody doesn't suit you. Let's go out''

''Huh?''

''Let's ditch set and go out''

''Huh? No, look at tall the extras today. They came to work; we can't ditch work just because I am not feeling it. Your face looks a little worn out''

''Aye, don't even remind. Sebastian is such a workaholic. He made me work the entire work on shooting and campaigning. I am so deadbeat'' Zeya leaned against the chair.

''Are you badmouthing me to your friend?'' Sebastian entered with Reynolds. They were going to their changing rooms when they heard their voices.

''No, I wasn't badmouthing anyone. I was just telling Alice about what we did the past week''

''Hey, Alice, your brother in law said I should keep my eyes on you. He said I should make sure you don't run away from set tonight''

''Tsk, I already promised them not to go. do they think I easily break my promises?''

''It's good you know how to keep promises… unlike someone who promised to bring me sweet and sour pork from her hometown but didn't'' Sebastian shook his head and turned to look Zeya.

''What is he talking about? I didn't know you two made such progress… you even promised to bring him delicacies from your hometown?''

''I just said I would if my parents didn't kick me out but they did. They are still angry with me because of the issue with Lucas. I already explained, why are you so petty?''

'Can't I be petty?''

''Aye, I'm leaving. Stop flirting on set'' Reynolds said and looked at Alice before going out.

''I'm watching you, Alice. Don't go anywhere'' Sebastian said before going out.

''What do they take me for? A rebellious kid?'' Alice muttered.
