All Chapters of Captain Alejandro’s Daughter: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

“Oh my God! You came, Zygo, my grandson!” a man in his late seventy’s wearing a black tuxedo greeted Zygo with a hug as we took our first step inside the vast mansion.    I was stunned. I thought this man I was with was a self-made billionaire, as stated in the article that I had read a couple of weeks ago. Wait, how can he become self-made if he comes from a family full of entrepreneurs?   I forgot that the internet consists of half-lies and truth.    I stared at Zygo’s face. I don’t know what accurate word can describe his expression, but I sensed displeasure while his grandfather hugged him. It was a cue that both of them aren’t close to each other.    Anyways, I also don’t know what kind of event is happening in this household. This tycoon who asked for assistance did not mention it.    I looked back to the front. After Zygo and his grandfather were done w

“Are you really okay?” I asked Zygo after he calmed down. The opening speech was done by his grandfather, and with that time, Zygo remained silent. I was shocked. He was the most extraordinary billionaire of Tranquil, but he looks like he did not exist in this home. “Don’t worry about me; I’m fine,” Zygo muttered and then took a glance at me. I just nodded and let out a deep sigh.  The people present in this event started eating as we remained standing, looking at them. I looked at the end where Zygo’s grandfather was standing with other older men. It’s his family’s business partners. The old man suddenly takes a look in our direction. I raised my left brow when I met his eyes. He stared for a second and shrugged, then brought his eyes back to the men.  “I failed to cancel the engagement,” Zygo mumbled. &

“Where are you guys taking us?!” I shouted when the men wearing red masks forced us into their car. They did not reply and quickly pushed me inside the van.  I hit the chair savagely that made my head spin for a little. “What the hell! Pay attention to your actions towards her. You assholes even dare to point a gun at her!” I heard Zygo holler. He was held by the two men, then struggled and broke free from their grip. He then quickly drew closer inside the van.  I was stunned when he suddenly cupped my cheeks. Even the van was dim, I could feel that Zygo was stressing himself over me.  “Are you okay?” he asked with a panting voice. I nodded as Zygo removed his hands on my cheeks.  “I’m fine,” I said and stared into his brown eyes. “Who are they?” I asked, but he just stared at me with a concerne

“Let’s have lunch here,” Alchy muttered when we entered the tiny eatery, it was a bit distant from where we rested the car since we still had to enter a back street before getting here. “You sure know a lot of things.” Zygo complimented after sitting down. There’s a round table in front of us that is only good for three people.  “As a soldier, yes,” Alchy answered boldly.  “Oh, you are a soldier?” after Zygo said those words, it became silence between him and Alchy. I was sitting between them, and they were staring at each other with intense gazes. “That’s enough. We are here to eat. It’s as if you’re going to slaughter each other with your intense gaze.” I said as I called the waiter who had just finished talking to another customer.  Both of them remained silent, “Do y

“What are we going to do now?” I asked as I lay down on the ground while facing the sky. “We should wait for nightfall before going out from this place,” Zygo answered and then lay beside me. Alchy was left standing in front of us, staring at the sky.  “I wonder what time is it?” I mumbled to myself.  “It’s around four in the afternoon,” Alchy muttered. I thought I just asked myself about those words, but he even heard it.  I stared at Alchy. I did not anticipate spending a lot of time with this black-tag soldier. As I let out a deep sigh, I turned my body to the right, forgetting about Zygo’s existence that we almost bumped into each other’s heads. He just lay still while staring at me.  “Careful,” he said and then grinned. Without hesitation, I stood up. “Where are you going?
