“Emil…she was taken… some men drugged her and took her… I couldn’t do anything to help her”said as she cried in Emiliano’s embrace and Emiliano tried all he could to calm her down, her head was bleeding, and he knew she tried her level best to help however she wasn’t strong enough
“Don’t worry Sia, we’ll get to the bottom of this”Logan who was driving the car at full speed turned back and said assuredly but sia couldn’t get it together
“It’s okay sweetie… we’ll find Rhea soon… and as it is we all know who is the culprit in this”he whispered to her because he knew only one person would pull such a stunt and that was Carlos
The drive was silent only Sia’s sobs could be heard, Logan had a worried expression as he hoped Rhea was okay out if he didn’t leave her alone or at least he should have assigned some bodyguards to watch over her 24/7 but like a full he left her alone when he knew Carlos was and insane man after her. Lost in thoughts, Logan’s phone vibrated, and quickly he took it out only to find a video sent to him from an unknown number,
“What is it?” Emiliano asked suspiciously and Logan cursed multiple times and handed the phone to Emiliano who was sitting in the back with sia, and immediately she stopped crying and took the phone to play the video and to their shock it was of Rhea tied in a chair with her mouth sealed, and it was struggling to get free
(“You only have five minutes to find her Logan, or she’s… dead”)Carlos said in the video and that was it
“P… please we need to find her and teach that shameless bastard a lesson”sia remarked in an angry tone and Logan a U-turn which surprised sia but not Emiliano
“Where are we going… we should go to Carlo’s mansion right now”she fired up but Emiliano ran his hand in his hair
“That’s where we are going… here call the police”Emiliano said seriously and gave her his phone and with hesitation sia took the phone and dialed the number, she didn’t know how she got careless but when she set out to look for Rhea to the restroom she didn’t find her, and hence she decided to check inside since they were in the garden, but she saw four men in black suits dragging away and unconscious person when she followed them to the parking lot she knew it was Rhea, and therefore she threatened them to let her go however someone hit her with something on the head, and she fainted when she woke up she found herself in a pool of blood and the men had left

Meanwhile, Carlos was sitting in the chair as he watched Rhea sitting an inch away from him tied up with no way of leaving, it was something when Rhea got married to Logan but another issue when she fell pregnant for him. He didn’t come all the way here to get his revenge on the daughter of a woman who hurt him in the past just to fail some young brat. He had his reasons for owning Rhea and no one was allowed to have her because she was his
“I warned you to divorce him but you… went against me”Carlos said as he swung the gun in his hands while his men who were standing to the sides watched in anticipation. Rhea was trying to get free as she struggled to get the seal off her mouth, but she was rendered helpless, she just hoped Logan stayed away from the villa because Carlo’s main motive was to pure Logan to his villa then killed him
“When he comes running, I won’t spare him”he went on and said like a crazy person. Rhea watched the man and swore she had never seen such an insane old man before he was so bitter, and hence she wondered if he had any children
“So tell me… what last words will you say to him”Carlos said sarcastically ad he walked around her but stopped and made an O with his mouth then chuckled “oops my bad”he said and removed the tape from her mouth only for Rhea to wince in pain but didn’t dare show it
“Why are you doing this? what have I done to you to… deserve this”rhea asked that first question she was longing to ask and at her question Carlos stopped in his tracks and walked back to her, so he could look at her and Rhea moved herself bad seeing the murderous look on his face
“You want to know… do you really want to know how she betrayed me… killed my child and ran away with another man… do you want to hear all that damn it!”Carlos yelled with so much anger such that Rhea flinched in fear so did the men around who looked away out of fear, Carlos was breathing heavily as he tried to calm his nerves, but his anger was visible
“She was mine from the start… but she ran away with her lover…she was expecting my child, but she got rid of it… she killed my precious child”he said like a mad man and Rhea looked at him and saw the hurt on his face but whatever it was why was she involved in it, if he was betrayed by a woman, then why was she the woman getting the blame
“T…then why am I here?”she asked nervously and Carlos slammed his fist on the table nearby, and it broke broken
“Your mother did this… she killed my child and later on, I found out she had you with that man!”he said through gritted teeth and Rhea now realized something, she always noticed how her mom used to be scared, and they were moving all the time from one country to another. Several times she asked her mom why her dad was never there, but she always told her he died before she was born, but she didn’t believe it so now hearing Carlos she was certain her mom was right, maybe he dad did die and thinking about it, it was possible that Carlos killed him out of anger and jealousy
“Y…you must have done something to hurt my mother… my mom was a nice woman when I was young I saw just how caring she was towards everyone… she showed just how loyal she was… if she ran away from you, then you were a monster to her!” Rhea said with so much anger, now she knew who was responsible for her mom’s sad and miserable condition, her mom’s health was always deteriorating, and the doctors didn’t find anything wrong with her
“Oh really?”Carlos said through gritted teeth and wrapped his hand around Rhea’s neck such that she tries to pry him off, but she was restricted
“She was mine, but she chose another man. That’s why I bought you to get my revenge…she didn’t have any rights to kill my child damn it”he continued to go apply pressure causing Rhea to run out of air as she gasped to breath such that she could feel her life getting sucked out
“LET HER GO!”a deep angry voice yelled and Carlos smirked and turned his head to see the intruders and yes Logan, Emiliano and sia were standing there
“Let her go this instant Carlos or this won’t end well for you!”Emiliano said and walked to them together with Logan, but Carlos took out a gun and pointed it at Rhea who was gasping for air as she breathed in the fresh air she was deprived of
“Step away, or I won’t hesitate to get rid of her… Emiliano you know me and if I pull this trigger she’ll be dead meat”Carlos said with a smirk and Logan fumed in anger watching the bastard point a gun at Rhea, Sia was done watching Rhea in pain
“I don’t think you know the consequences of doing that… better let her go, and we’ll pretend this never happened”Emiliano tried to reason with Carlos but Carlos shook his head and pointed the gun on Rhea’s chest.
“I’ll kill her right in front of you”carlos growled out the words and prepared to pull the trigger, Rhea blinked several times as her eyes closed embracing her fate because no one would save her from the monster before her
“Really? Are you brave enough to kill your own daughter and you grandchild?”it was emiliano who said calmly only for Carlos to freeze not just him but Rhea was shocked too so was Sia who looked at emiliano now walking to Carlos… Logan wasn’t surprised because he knew the truth.
