Semua Bab Bound By Fate: The Billionaire's Contract Bride : Bab 71 - Bab 80

Alexander and Lucas had returned to the apartment, they sat in the living room. Lucas was seated at the dining table, his laptop was open and his phone was connected with a short cord, he scrolled through his laptop trying to find the app that could decipher the now deleted call logs from the phone. “Young Master, I’m almost done,” Lucas said, his eyes remaining on the screen. “I just need a few more minutes.” Alexander rubbed his hand over his face. “I don’t know what I’m feeling but it feels like every second we waste is another moment for Hensley to continue doing whatever the fuck he’s doing to Aria right now. She’s somewhere out there and we don’t know where…” Lucas kept on working. “Young Master, we’re doing everything we can to make sure that we find her. I understand your worry and I will make sure we find her as quickly as possible. Hensley and Ethan will rot in jail for this.” Alexander exhaled sharply, the dull ache of his migraine was adding to his anger and frustratio

As soon as they were back in the car and driving off, Alexander’s curiosity piqued, it got the better of him. He tore open the evidence bag and dug out the wallet. “Let’s see what we’ve got here,” Alexander muttered, flipping open the wallet. His eyes immediately found the driver’s license. “Frieda Bane,” he said. “Young Master, do you have an ID?” Lucas asked, turning around in his seat. “Yeah. Her driver’s license. Her name is Frieda Bane,” Alexander repeated, passing the license to Lucas at the front seat.Lucas wasted no time in pulling out his laptop. “Sir, you might want to search for the phone the deputy Sheriff spoke of.” Lucas said, as he quickly typed the name onto his laptop. Alexander dipped his hand right back into the evidence bag and brought out a phone, truly a face like Aria was covered in heavy makeup as the screen saver. He passed the phone to Lucas and collected the driver’s license, he put it back in its position and continued to sift through the wallet. The

The underground laboratory smelled of sweat and chemicals as Dr. Hensley wiped his brow of sweat. His hands trembled slightly, the paralyzed goon lay slumped on the floor near his workbench. The body of the guy was a dead weight that was becoming more trouble for Hensley. “Damn it! You could have tried to attack me towards that area, that way it would have been easier to move you.” Hensley complained. He gripped the man under the arm and attempted to lift him but the man’s size and bulk made the task almost impossible, but Hensley had no choice but to keep trying. Even though no one would stumble on the body in the laboratory, he liked to be able to move easily around his own side of the laboratory. “You could have just left or better still put a call through. I’d have paid you and moved on but now look at you.” He grumbled to the goon on the floor, he dragged the limp figure toward the corner of the lab. The man’s head lolled left and right as he blinked slowly, the only indicatio

Alexander’s body was limp, and he fell to the ground. Lucas caught him before he hit the ground, fear written all over his face. “Young Master!” He called, as he shook Alexander gently. “Wake up!” Alexander didn’t respond, his breathing was even, it was even as though he was under a spell. Lucas turned to the driver, his voice urgent. “I think we should get him to the hospital immediately.” The driver nodded, moving to help Lucas with getting Alexander to the car. The drive to the hospital was tense, both the driver and Lucas were focused on making sure Alexander was okay. Lucas sat in the backseat with Alexander slumped against him. Alexander’s face was pale and sweaty “He’s burning up,” Lucas said. The driver opened his glove compartment box and gave Lucas his emergency kit, in no time, Lucas was using the cloth to dab on Alexander’s forehead. He had searched for some smelling salts but found none. The driver’s voice broke the silence. “We’re almost at the hospital.”

Dr. Hensley stood over Aria, watching her as she lay unconscious. She tapped her fingers on the steel table beside her gurney. Her face was getting paler but there was nothing that he could do about that, he couldn’t let her wake up anytime soon. The intravenous drip that supplied nutrients was basically just to make sure that she was getting enough nutrients to stay alive and healthy to an extent. His phone buzzed on the work counter, he moved to pick it up, it was a text. “Alexander and I arrive tomorrow. Don’t forget the gift.” A smile spread across his lips, things were working out rather well. The only plan left was how to eventually exchange Aria for Frieda when he was done with her. Hensley checked the machines monitoring Aria’s vitals. They showed that she was steady, though she was noticeably weaker than she had been a short while ago. He wasn’t too concerned with her, she could last a little longer and as long as she was stable, he would keep up his work. The only thing
