Going All Out
Derila walked off, and Zayn was left all alone on the wooden bed. At the thought of the perilous situation back home, he was worried sick. He could not wait to get back home right away.
Unfortunately, he was not able to move. Even the simple act of drinking his juice was an issue.
Derila had placed the juice in a glass instead of a wooden bowl like the one that the wolf was eating out of.
Zayn tried to lift his neck to drink the juice, but his neck was so stiff that he could not do it.
The only thing he could do at that moment was to engage the help of the old wolf sitting beside him.
The elderly wolf eyed him coldly. It was as if it was saying, "Go on. Beg me!"
Zayn frowned and gritted his teeth. "I am a powerful man, after all. In order to live, I don't mind bowing to Derilo. Now, you want me to beg a wolf as well? I would rather starve to death."
With that, he resolutely turned his head away.
The old wolf strolled over slowly before sticking its tongue into the glass. It started to lick the juice and even seemed to enjoy it.
"You!" Zayn was so furious. "You are as bad as your master!"
The animal seemed to understand his words. It looked up and bared its teeth at Zayn. It looked as if it wanted to devour the human.
"Oh gosh…" Zayn immediately changed his tone. "No, no. I mean, you are just as adorable as your master. Adorable!"
It was only then that the murderous look in the wolf's eyes disappeared gradually. With a turn of its head, it stalked away slowly.
Zayn looked at what little remained of the juice with contempt and wished that such miserable days would be over soon.
He missed Carla and the children terribly and wanted to get back to them as soon as possible.
Carla fell asleep and had a nightmare. In it, she saw Randy and Josh being bullied by others.
She was heartbroken and instantly sent Charles a message, hoping to get a response soon.
Charles replied that the search was still ongoing.
Carla was very worried. She felt that she could no longer sit around and do nothing. The following day, she intended to take a few subordinates with her to Yavawi.
As for now, she had to get ready to see Boris.
Perhaps, there might be some clues from his side.
At that thought, Carla got up and started to get ready. She even brought Hapilia's pills along with her.
Just as she was about to leave the house, Freda came up to her and asked, "Ms. Lierger, where are you going? I will go with you."
"There's no need for that." Carla felt that it was best for her to go alone. If others were with her, it might affect her plans.
"I don't feel at ease if you go alone." Freda said worriedly, "What if something happens like the other day?"
"Nothing happened the other day." Carla smiled. "I'm fine now, aren't I?"
"Roland was there to help you the other day. That was why your plan went smoothly. But, today…" Freda must have guessed that she wanted to go and see Boris that day. "That Boris is an a_shole! He is an evil-hearted person and will definitely try to get fresh with you. If anything goes wrong this time…"
The more Freda thought about it, the more worried she became. "If something untoward really happens, how am I supposed to answer to Mr. Giblo?"
Looking at her anxious face, Carla said, "Why don't we do this instead? You take two bodyguards with you and wait for me near the hotel. If anything goes wrong, I will message you, and you will be able to get to me in time."
"All right. I will get going at once."
Freda immediately went to get the others ready.
Carla drove herself to Storm Hotel to meet Boris.
She was fully prepared to do anything to find out the whereabouts of Randy and Josh.
It was already the third day since the children had been kidnapped. She could not imagine the torture they had to go through for the past three days.
She could not wait any longer.
