Chapter 188 - Oh! Wow!

He didn't care about the reporters and all. He knew health can be nurtured. The said lost boys can be replaced if his business got back on track, which he believed to be, since they told him Hannah is helping, with Michael monitoring things.

If he survive and contact his partners in crime, they will aid him with men to serve him till he hunt for more. They are scared he lost, but he didn't. They only need assurance that they won't get in trouble because of him and everything will fall into place.

He will get back at Nathan for sure, but now isn't the time to worry about him.

The first thing he asked was, "where's my wife?" which they replied that she was taken away by the government people that came to arrest him.

They couldn't tell for sure who's behind the people that came wasn't after justice but came for Alex. Shane inside flared up in anger, but he knew getting his wife back will be easy.

As long as it's not people who could hurt her, then he's cool. They have no evidence to back up their allegations.

All they acted upon was based on a mere word and other assumptions. "Did that bastard die?" he asked.

They replied that they are not sure about that, because she was saved by someone that night.

"That bastard didn't die after doing this to me? those useless being died without killing her?" Shane was furious now, while the doctor rolled his eyes at his pathetic questions.

"Fine! It seems there's a chance to kill her with my own hand." he consoled himself. He was starting to feel hot again, which made him quickly retrieve a bottle and drank some water again.

Fear gripped his heart. He wondered if this is how he will be living his life from now on, but didn't show it. He believed there must be a way out. Things money can't solve are limitless and this annoying condition isn't above money.

"How many men do we have left?" He asked.

"None of the bases survive the attacks, while those who went for them never returned. It's just Michael, the two of us and two girls from Madam's personal bodyguards who stayed behind." One of them explained.

Michael made sure those two stayed behind just in case Stella wanted to start working, and had no idea that she was already being taken away while they were busy making those plans.

'5 men? how could that happen within two weeks?' he thought, but still kept a straight face. His men wasn't happy with those lost and really hope he will at least show a bit of sadness for their lost colleagues but didn't even get any.

They both look calm and held the urge to sigh. Shane asked other questions, like their location and all before his mind suddenly drifted to the doctor.

"Who is that rude bastard with silver hair?" He asked.

"Oh! Wow!" the doctor exclaimed and chuckled at how he got addressed.

His men look at each other and both nodded before one of them spoke up. "He's fast finger." he said.

"What!" Shane couldn't believe his ears. The same guy he couldn't manage to meet despite all his offers and continuous attempt.

The doctor, known as fast finger, whose real name was Austin grinned and kept enjoying the show. He had planned to switch off the screen since Aroma wasn't mentioned except her boss and their organization, which he didn't care about.

But when Shane mentioned him; he couldn't help but want to hear more.

"That young doctor is the infamous fast finger? If I'm not mistaken Austin?" Shane asked with his eyes glowing with interest.

"Yes sir!" his boys replied in unison.

"Now I'm young and a doctor, how sweet." Austin smile, adjusted the laptop in front of him and rest his back on the handle of the chair he's sitting on, craving for more show.

Shane expression brighten up more and more. He believed that if he's really the one, then there might be a solution for his sickness and also, having him is better than having those fools who kept dying like chicken.

"What have you found out about him so far? his interest? weakness? anything?" Shane asked like an idiot, not letting the fact that he's in the doctor's lair sink in his head.

He was so excited about the fact that he's fast finger and the thought of what he could do, control, people that will bow to him and many more filled his head. It's a wonderful opportunity that he wouldn't let slide.

Aside from Austin being deadly for his inventions, he's well skilled in combat as well.

He's proud and he himself knows that, but doesn't give a damn about people, except Aroma and their other partner. If he hadn't discover Aroma hand work in Shane's condition, he won't be doing what he's doing right now, but he's glad he did, since hearing and seeing Shane addresses of him and expression is kinda fun.

"My weakness? Cool!" Austin tched.

"We aren't allowed to roam around the villa. We have to remain where we were assigned, to not get on his bad side." One of them replied him.

"What bad side, you idiots! what if he didn't behave and needed persuasion? are you two sick in the head or something? what are the values of all the training you've had and still doesn't know the right thing to do?" He was exasperated now.

The two men were silent and couldn't dare speak till he has cursed them to his heart's content, got hold of the half remain water and downed the content, as his body is reacting again, while his men were holding the urge to shiver.

Even though the cold couldn't penetrate into the heavy pullover, their faces were bare and it seems like it's going to freeze soon, while their boss was perspiring all over.

"We were warned that he could ask for you to be taken away if we angered him. Your health is our priority, so we stay put. We apologize sir. Now that you're awake; we will take the risk." one of them said, but Shane isn't pleased at all.

"You idiots! what happened to all your skills? you're telling me you couldn't get anything without alerting him?" Shane asked.

"Sir, he has surveillance cameras everywhere in the building and we aren't allowed to come in with laptops and phones, so there's no way to infiltrate anything here." one said.

"He got someone to hand us a mobile phone, with Michael's call being on hold, while the person waited and took the phone after we're done receiving the call." the other dude added.

Shane finally calm and look around the room as a thought pop up. He wondered if there's a camera here as well, because immediately he woke up, Austin appeared.

All of a sudden. "Yes idiots! I've been enjoying your dramas from the start, please go on and make sure you book a hotel today. YOU'RE DISCHARGED!" he emphasizes his last sentence in a mocking tone, while Shane's head snapped toward a stereo device hanging on the wall beside him, as that's where the voice came from.
