Chapter 1930
"Layla, what happened?" Mike's voice came through the speaker on the bodyguards' end."Uncle Mike, the bodyguard called me saying that they can't get hold of my parents. They tried ringing the doorbell to their room, but no one came to open the door," Layla described the situation to Mike. "Did something happen to them?"Confused, Mike took Layla's phone and asked, "What's going on?"The bodyguard briefed Mike on what had happened. "Avery's bodyguard and I haven't been able to reach the two of them since last night. We went over to the pit today, but the people there said that they weren't there yesterday. They headed out early yesterday morning, and we were still in touch with them up until noon, but I have heard no news from them since yesterday evening. We don't know where they went, and I doubt that they are even inside their room...""There's a plate on the door?""Yeah! We would have freaked out long ago if it wasn't for the plate!"Mike remained thoughtful for a moment and

The bodyguards felt as though they were going blind from viewing all the footage when the phone rang, so they picked up right away."Have you gotten anything?" Mike asked."We asked the manager to open the door to their room, but he refused. We are now in the security room, checking if they returned to their room yesterday, but they still haven't shown up in the two hours' worth of footage we have gone through."Mike's heart sank. "Your boss has a friend in Ylore, right? Why don't you go find that person and ask them to liaise with the hotel to open the door?"The bodyguard did not have Nick's number, but he knew where he lived, which was roughly an hour's round trip from the hotel."Alright! Avery's bodyguard will keep combing through the footage, and I will go look for Nick Felix." He hung up and set off to find Nick.Forty minutes later, the bodyguard arrived at Nick's mansion.Nick was surprised when he heard that Avery and Elliot were in Ylore."They didn't tell me they we
Chapter 1932
The two bodyguards shuddered in fear.They had thought that Elliot and Avery were enjoying their time together in the room and had not expected them to go missing. Had they known, they would have been in a panicked state and would not have gone to the pit, let alone volunteered to help with moving bodies the entire day.Shortly after that, Mike called again, and the bodyguard informed him that Elliot and Avery had gone missing."We are going to look for them with Mr. Felix. I don't think I have the courage to come back on my own without finding my boss and Avery first."Mike hung up with the knowledge that Avery had gone missing and thought to himself, "She has just arrived in Ylore and is already missing; not to mention Elliot, too! How ridiculous can this get?!""What's going on?" Chad noticed how pale Mike was and pulled him aside."They have both gone missing, according to Elliot's bodyguard!" Mike took a deep breath and continued, "I need to be there!""Mr. Foster and Avery

In time, Nick stepped out of the warden's office with a dark expression."Mr. Felix, what did the warden say?" The two bodyguards approached him and asked."Elliot and Avery were here yesterday. They met with the female prisoner and took her with them in the afternoon," Nick informed them exactly what the warden had told him. "They haven't been back since they took the prisoner, and the warden is struggling to get ahold of Elliot as well.""So all three of them disappeared at the same time?!" Elliot's bodyguard widened his eyes in shock and gaped. "What on earth is going on?""No one knows what happened after that. I've already asked the warden to check the car plate on the car they used yesterday, so let's just track that car down first! You two can head back to the hotel! I don't need you here.""There's nothing we can do in the hotel... Mr. Felix, let us follow you!" Elliot's bodyguard felt as though someone was stabbing him in the heart; he wouldn't be able to rest or eat unti

"Not yet. I only found out that they were in Ylore last night." Nick yawned. "The pit is located in the outskirts of the city, with people working constantly there to recover the bodies. Elliot and Avery's bodyguards were there yesterday, but they didn't see the two of them anywhere.""Mr. Felix, who do you think would harm them?" Chad asked gloomily."I really can't put my finger on it. I've stayed up all night thinking about it and, still, not a clue. I called Edward and Ted, and they were both shocked when I told them about this. I am the closest to Eliot amongst them, but he is quite close to those two as well. They aren't in Ylore at the moment, but they said to let them know if we need help with finding Elliot."What Nick meant to tell Chad was that, if there was someone who dared harm Elliot in Ylore, it had to either be Edward or Ted, but they had no motivation to do so."I heard that there's another prisoner who went missing with them. Has anyone found her yet?" Chad had r

"Who else is he going to if not me? I need to find him even if he doesn't come to me! I can't just let him act on his own... What are we supposed to do if something happens to him as well?" Chad's head hurt at the thought."You will know when you see him," Mike said. "Just get some rest in the hotel! There's no point for you to get all worked up if, even Nick is struggling to get information on this.""Like I can! I can't sleep!""Still, you need to sleep! I will call you when Hayden is there.""Fine!"Chad contacted Elliot's bodyguard and arrived at the hotel they were staying in.He took one gloomy look at the presidential suite, as the bodyguard suggested. "Chad, why don't you stay with us here? Mr. Felix said he would get to the bottom of this, so we just need to wait for the results here."Chad glared at the bodyguard. "I don't want to say this, but how stupid can you two be?! Even a dog can do your job better than you!"The two bodyguards lowered their heads guiltily."C

Nick was shocked. "Take me to it!""Promise me that I can build my station here." Hayden stood his ground."You probably won't be able to do it in the city center. It's too obvious, and you might alarm someone that even I can't handle. I might have my connections, but I don't get to do whatever I feel like doing either," Nick said. "How about places in the suburbs?""That's fine as well," Hayden said and walked outside, with Nick following closely behind.Though Hayden was merely a teenager, Nick could not help but feel like he was working for Hayden.Nick led Hayden to his car to circle for an ideal spot…"Hayden, what kind of chip did you insert into your mom's phone?""A GPS chip.""Oh. Did you buy it? Is it something invented in Bridgedale? I heard that phones have GPS function but would only be traceable once switched off." Nick was extremely interested in the chip Hayden was talking about."I didn't buy it. I can track the chip in my mom's phone even if her phone is swit

There was a car closely following Nick's car, and he turned around and spotted the black car."It's rare for someone your age to be this organized," Nick complimented. "Let me know if there's anything you need help with. I sent my men to the pit earlier today and the staff there said that they haven't seen your parents in the past few days.""Okay."After sending Hayden to the spot where the station would be built, Nick stood on the side to watch for a while.Hayden had brought along a large group of people, who were moving equipment out of the car and were already starting to build the station.Everything went on smoothly in an organized fashion while Hayden stood to monitor the others.Noticing that he had underestimated Hayden, Nick could not pluck up the courage to talk to him. After all, he realized anything he had to say meant nothing to Hayden as Hayden was fully focused on building the station to find Avery.Sweating profusely under the unforgiving sun, Nick eventually r
