Giving Love A Shot
Carla and Freda heard Rogan cursing from afar when they got home. "B_stard, if you have the guts to come again, I'll break your legs!"
She then lifted and threw the journalist out of the backyard and gave him another kick.
The man, who fell flat on the ground, instantly crawled up and ran away.
Freda looked at Rogan and said, "What's with the rolled-up sleeves? Are you getting ready to fight?"
"I spotted a few b_stards hiding in the bushes, but I can't seem to chase them away!" Rogan exclaimed in frustration.
"Get a few men to patrol that area. Don't let them off easily, " Carla ordered.
"All right, " Rogan responded.
After entering the villa with Freda, Carla instructed the other bodyguards, "Keep an eye on the surrounding in the next few days. Do not allow any outsiders to enter the villa. Gotta be extra careful even you shop for groceries."
"Yes, Ms. Lierger."
"You haven't slept for a day. Grab a bite, and sleep early, Ms. Lierger." Freda then ordered the kitchen staff to prepare breakfast for Carla.
Yet, Carla did not feel like eating. "My stomach is churning, and I don't feel like eating. You go around the house and see if anything needs to be done. Go and take a rest once Rogan comes in. I'll be in my study."
"Got it." Freda nodded and started making the necessary arrangement to improve the security in the villa.
At the study, Carla extracted the information Brandy sent earlier from her phone. She then went through the details to see if she could find clues on Randy and Josh's whereabouts.
A few minutes later, she heard a knock on the door, followed by Charles's voice. "It's me, Ms. Lierger."
"Come in, " Carla said.
Charles entered the study and reported, "I'm sorry, Ms. Lierger. We haven't located Mr. Giblo yet, but I've gathered some clues…"
"Don't worry about him, " Carla interrupted. Someone has kidnapped Randy and Josh. We have to find them first."
"What? How did it happen?" Charles's expression changed. "What about the girls?"
"Alpha suffered some injuries, and the doctors are now treating her at the hospital. Gamma and Beta had some minor wounds on their body, but they're fine." Carla explained everything that had happened last night to Charles.
She continued saying with a pang of guilt, "It's all my fault. I thought they were targetting Zayn and me. I didn't expect them to do this to the kids. I also thought Daemon would send someone to take care of the kids. Who knew that he had already returned to Erihal…"
"No, it's not your fault, " Charles said with a frown. "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I could have gone to the rescue."
"We were all in a difficult situation. What if Newton's men found Zayn and Derelo? We couldn't allow that to happen too, " Carla explained, "Let's not dwell on the past anymore. At this point, we should focus on the kids. I'm counting on you now!"
"I'll get to it right away!" After copying the information Brandy provided, Charles said, "I'll take care of the kids. But what about Mr. Giblo?"
"I'll take care of it, " Carla answered. "I want you to focus on the children now."
"Okay." Charles nodded. Before stepping out of the door, he seemed to have recalled something he needed to tell Carla. He turned around and said, "By the way, Ms. Lierger, there's something I wish to remind you."
"Yes?" Carla looked at him.
Charles said hesitantly, "Mr. Lierger might not have feelings for her in the past, but things have changed after the incident. So if you manage to find Mr. Giblo, I hope you could also take care of her safety…"
Carla gave him a smile. "Got it. Even if Daemon doesn't have any feelings for her, I'll make sure she's all right. She's the mother to the girls, after all. Besides, I'm also happy that Daemon is willing to give love a shot!"
