CHAPTER 57 She Is Gone

Still in the operating room..

Ace was already starting to get impatient. His hands were inside his pocket as he walked around confused and frustrated while his guards were busy with their work with the system, trying to track down Xavier.

"I swear with my life, Xavier will pay for this." He lamented.

His bodyguards already knew Xavier was Ace's greatest enemy and his angry reactions toward Xavier's actions didn't surprise them. At first, they thought Ace's anger was because Xavier destroyed his party mood, never did they know that his actual anger was because Xavier had kidnapped Sophia but as the time ticked, they weren't so dumb to know something was wrong somewhere. The emotionless Ace was angry because a girl he knew nothing much about was kidnapped by his enemy. The Ace they knew wouldn't give a fuck about someone's well-being.

"Any news?" He asked and took a few steps forward, gazing at the system to know if they found anything that could help. “Not yet boss. The satellites that could help are all not functioning. I think they were all blocked "Blocked?" Ace asked.

"Yes, boss. I think Ace is behind it." Cynthia replied. She wasn't crying anymore. Her facial expression was just neutral. She came to realize that crying wasn't going to solve the problem. She needed to be strong for her friend but whenever she remembers that bad things always happen to good people just like Sophia, it breaks her heart. She could remember how Sophia survived rape and was hospitalized in the process.

"I just hope my friend is strong wherever she is," Cynthia spoke out as she let out a sigh of sadness. She slowly stood from her seat and walked towards the other end of the room where she took out one cigarette. She lighted it on and took it into her mouth.

Back at Xavier's Territory Sophia looked around, she was looking stressed out and her face was in distress. She glanced again to be sure no one was approaching.

She was still holding the broken bottle as she struggled to set her legs free by cutting off the rope with her two arms that were tied. While she struggled, the remaining plate of food that was left on top of the bed fell to the ground.

"I think I heard a sound." She heard two voices as she prayed that she shouldn't get caught and just immediately the place fell, two men walked into the room after they heard the sound.

"What made that sound?” One of them asked and Sophia swallowed her saliva, stuttering out words. "Something... fell... kicked the plate of food away. Do your worst!" She replied.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

"Look, we have no such time to give to you. Thank goodness you will be dying soon.” Said the other guy as they both walked out, leaving Sophia alone in the room.

She let out a deep sigh of relief as used the bottle to chop off the rope little by little which gave her sores in her arm in the process of doing so. She winced in pain as the blood started sipping from her hand. It was so painful but she needed to be strong for herself as she closed her eyes to endure the pain with some tears dropping off her eyes.

After struggling for about ten minutes, it was a success. She immediately freed her leg and sighed again before she started to untie the rope from her hands.

Footsteps were approaching. She could clearly hear it as her heart skipped. The fear of what would be her fate if she is being caught frightened her so badly. She shut her eyes as she could now hear her heart, beating so fast in fear.

She gazed at the door and saw a shadow walking past the window.

That was a great relief for her the moment she saw the person was passing by and didn't go Into the room where she was as she closed her eyes shivering, she prayed she would never get caught. She was already close to her death but she got saved.

She tipteed and peeked through the door where she saw four men. Two were asleep while the rest were busy with their phones.

The thought of haw she was going to get out without being seen troubled her as those tears formed in her eyes and without wasting much time, they poured uncontrollably and luckily, an idea popped into her head

She immediately picked up some broken bottles and threw them outside from the window and luckily, she wasn't seen.

"Who is that?" They asked, looking around, trying to know where the sound came from. They were so dumb to have thought that Sophia might be responsible for it so the two men who were busy with phones immediately walked towards the other end of the corridor to check. Leaving the other men who were sleeping

That was the only chance Sophia had gotten. She quickly and quietly opened the door and was a bit frightened when she saw them sleeping like a log. She feared they might wake and see her.

She tiptoed and immediately ran carefully outside the building where she found out the fences weren't fully built. She immediately climbed the fence as she fell to the other end inside the bush. She started walking through the bushes with a happy mind but still scared. Her heart wasn't giving a hint they would stop beating fast any time soon.

The thought that they might be looking for her already energized her to fasten her pace as she started running Back at Xavier's Territory

"The door!..." One of the men alerted. The rest immediately rushed down to see what was actually wrong with the door when they finally realized she was gone.

"She is not here!" Said one of them

"What do you mean?" Said another as they all ran into the room but was shocked when they confirmed she was really gone. "She already escaped but how?" The Boss among them whose name was poison yelled as they all looked worried.

"Isabella is gone and now Sophia? Damn!" He said in frustration. Scratching his head, not knowing what else to say.

"How possible did she leave?" One of the sleepy guys asked as Poison welcomed his face with an intense and a dangerous gaze. "We need to find her quickly. I am sure she is not far away yet. If Boss hears about this, you all know our fate." Said Poison "Where is Boss?" One of them asked.

"He is not back from his stroll." Poison replied

"Who is gone?" A voice asked as they all Isoked at the direction where the voige came and saw Xavier. standing and leaning beside the doorwith his legs across each other and his hands Inside his pockets. Céntent belongs to

Their hearts skipped. They all went dumb suddenly as they stood in shock. Words were far from their mouths.

"Where is Sophia if I may ask?" Xavier asked, pretending not to know what happened.

"She...she... We will look for her." One of the men stuttered.

"Look for her, you say?" Said Xavier as he took a few steps into the room

"It better not be what I’m thinking!” He said again, scratching his skull, not knowing how and what to vent his anger on.

"Are you telling me she escaped? And you all are still here?” He asked angrily and gave one of them a dirty slap.

"You all are bunch of bastards!" He cursed. Find her now!" He said in a loud voice as they all immediately ran out of the room.

"Shit!!! I hope she is not out yet." He silently prayed and sighed angrily before sitting down, continuously hitting his feet on the ground while he gritted his teeth in anger.

"Fools!" He cursed again.

As Xavier's men went in search of her, they splitted themselves, running in each and every corner of the bush.

Meanwhile, Sophia was already running F really hard because she saw when Xavier's car drove past her and the bush was so much that she got confused on where to run tothat wauild be safe for her. Content bélongs to ~

She knew they would have been looking for her by now.

"We must find her!" Sophia could clearly hear that voice as her heart skipped. She never stopped praying inwardly.

While she continued to run, she knew they would catch her any time soon so shé¥mmediately hid beside a tree.

"Please, let me go... " she sobbed “How unfortunate you are!! You had the guts to run away..." Guys! I have found her.” He called out and in no time, the rest of them arrived. "This is our territory... no one goes out of here freely..." said poison as he carried her on one of his shoulders, walking back towards the building.

All her efforts were all gone. She thought as her crying intensified.
