Why do Uncle Ethan and Edgar look so scared of Devan? Even the middle-aged man treated Devan with respect as if he didn’t care about his nephew’s condition.
They were both very sure, that before their arrival. Something big must have happened. But what it is, they don’t know.
“Then where’s Dave, Edgar?” And what are we doing here? Checking CCTV? Did Dave run away from you guys? Or something else happened?” Naila asked while looking at Edgar.
To be honest, guilt-filled her even more, especially when he saw Claire’s current condition. However, she tried not to show her feelings and was as calm as possible.
Hearing his cousin’s question, Edgar took a deep breath. “This is all my fault. I’m too careless. Don’t ask any more questions, because that’s all I can tell you,” he said in a small voice, but still managed to reach the girl’s ears.
After that, silence. No more conversation was heard there. Everyone is busy with their thoughts.
“Honey, you should just rest in the car. It’s cold in here, I’m afraid you’ll catch a cold later,” said Devan, holding Claire’s hand.
The woman turned and nodded slowly. “Okay, accompany me,” she replied and began to move from her position.
They waited there for a long time. The rain fell again and wet the earth. No one moved from their position. Everyone waited patiently.
Devan could have ordered his men to take care of this. But he didn’t. Because he couldn’t trust anyone anymore if it is about his son.
Devan glanced at the watch that was wrapped in his hand, it was now four in the morning. The man he had been waiting for finally arrived.
“You stay here, Dear. Wait for me,” Devan said to Claire, then got out of the car and approached his men.
“Why did you take so long?” he asked.
“We’re having a hard time, sir. Some CCTV footage is missing, it looks like someone has deleted it,” the man said.
“And the same thing happens all over the place, Sir. I have confirmed this with the others,” he added.
“What do you mean?” Edgar took a step forward, looking like he wanted to hit the man but was restrained by his Uncle.
Devan’s hands clenched into fists. His jaw clenched, anger taking over him again.
“If anything happens to my son, I won’t spare you, Ateez,” Devan said, threatening the middle-aged man standing not far from him.
“As Edgar’s uncle, I am ready to take responsibility for my nephew’s mistakes, sir,” Ateez replied, the middle-aged man bowing apologetically.
“So what now? We didn’t find any leads, Devan. What’s your next plan?” Leo asked his cousin.
“I-I…” Edgar stuttered, making everyone immediately turn to him. The man turned to Devan with a doubtful feeling.
“Do you want to say something?” asked Naila first.
One of Devan’s eyebrows raised, “Speak.”
“I’m sorry, Sir. I-I admit I was wrong, I apologize. Please forgive me,” Edgar suddenly knelt on the ground, right in front of Devan. But unfortunately, Devan did not pay attention to him at all.
The man reached into his pocket and took out a flat-shaped object from it, It seems he has no other choice but this. He then selected some photos and showed them to Edgar.
“Do you know the person in this picture?” he asked.
Edgar shook his head. Devan then showed me a few more photos, but Edgar kept shaking his head, he won’t know about those people.
Devan took a deep breath.
“Wait!” said Edgar when he saw the photo that was not at all foreign to his eyes.
“Do you know about this person?” asked Devan as he brought his phone screen closer to Edgar. On the screen of his cellphone is a photo of Byanca. Although at first Devan was a little hesitant, because earlier Edgar had said that it was the figure who told him to kidnap Dave is a man.
“No, I don’t, sir,” replied Edgar immediately.
Devan’s brow furrowed, “Then? What do you mean? Are you kidding me?”
“No, it’s not like that, Sir. I don’t dare to do that to you,” said Edgar in a very polite voice.
“Then? Do you know this woman? Have you ever met her?” he asked.
“I saw that woman with the man when we had a car swap, Sir. Yes, that’s right. She is that woman,” Edgar answered with absolute certainty.
“That’s Byanca. Is that bitch tired of living?” Leo muttered, cursing the woman.
Hearing Edgar’s answer, Devan then showed one more photo on his cellphone screen.
“Then, how about this man?” asked Devan again, he showed me Edward’s photo.
Instantly Edgar was stunned on the spot. He then looked at Devan while nodding a few times. “Right, that’s right, sir. He is the man who asked me to kidnap your son.”
Devan’s hands clenched again, without a word, he immediately turned and walked towards his car, making everyone there feel confused.
“Hey, where are you going, Devan?” Leo asked immediately following his cousin. He pulled Naila’s hand with him.
“Get up, looks like Mr. Devan wants to do something,” said Ateez helping his nephew to stand.
“Uncle, we must follow him until his son is found,” said Edgar.
“Of course. It’s a must,” replied Ateez and followed Mr. Devan and Leo. Go to the car he was riding in earlier.
“Devan, at least tell me what you’re going to do next,” Leo shouted when Devan had opened his car door.
Getting no response, Leo let out a shaky breath. Seeing Devan’s attitude, Leo immediately contacted Mr. Aaron and Uncle Atmadja about this.
“Get in, hurry up,” Naila shouted who was already in the car when she saw Leo was still busy talking to someone on the phone.
“Or we will lose track of Devan,” she added. Several cars that were with them before are now moving to follow Devan’s car.
Hearing Naila’s scream, Leo immediately nodded and got into the car. Start driving the car and follow other cars.
“What’s the matter, Devan? Any clues?” asked Claire softly.
“This is Byanca and Edward’s doing. Maybe those two bastards are tired of living,” said Devan furiously.
He never thought that Byanca and Edward would follow them to Australia, because after his engagement to Claire and the incident at the shopping center, Byanca never appeared again.
Also, regarding the Javier family. He knows everything about that family when he deals with them.
It turns out that not only Brian, but now Edward is also looking for trouble with him.
Did Javier’s family never feel deterred?F
