Zayn Is Awake
"I still cannot get him."
Carla had no idea how to tell Jamal that Daemon was unable to help her given his current condition.
She could not bear to disturb him at a crucial time like that.
Jamal sighed and said, "I'm getting too anxious, and that's why I keep urging you to contact Mr. Lierger. Come to think of it, I doubt he will be able to deal with other things right now."
"Yes, " agreed Carla. "Regardless, I will try to find a way out of this…"
Jamal was pessimistic. "The other party is very experienced. Every move he makes is perfect. None of us is his match. Unless the real Mr. Giblo returns, we will surely lose this battle."
"I'm sure there will be a way out of this, " Carla consoled him.
"It must be quite hard on you. I shouldn't be pressuring you when it comes to company matters. Just focus on finding your children." Jamal advised her sincerely, "Nothing else is more important than the safety of the children."
"I understand…"
Carla felt sad and was at a loss for words.
"I will hang up now. Take care of yourself, " said Jamal before he ended the call.
With a heavy heart, Carla looked up at the wedding photos that were on the wall.
In the photos, Zayn looked at her with such tenderness. Her eyes teared up, and she mumbled, "Hubby, where are you? Come back soon. I can't take it any longer…"
Deep within the forest, Zayn felt as if he had heard Carla's call. He opened his eyes suddenly and shouted, "Carla!"
"You are finally awake?" someone said in a cold and disdainful voice. "If you continue to remain unconscious, your wife and children will continue to suffer at the hands of bullies."
"What did you say?"
Zayn turned his head slowly and frowned when he saw a woman with a dark green-colored face mask.
Derela was cooking at the moment, and Sam was sleeping on her shoulders. When Sam heard Zayn speak, it glanced at him before going back to sleep again.
"Your sons have been kidnapped, and your wife is being bullied by the Giblo family. You are such a useless man." Derela continued to lash out at him, "The worst part is that my children suffered as a result of it too. That group of b_stards kidnapped my three babies as well and caused serious injury to Alpha!"
At this point, Derela grew more and more agitated. "If I find out who is behind this, I will make him pay!"
"Are you saying…" Zayn became flustered and wanted to turn over, but he was unable to move. He twisted his neck around as best as he could and asked, "My sons got kidnapped? By whom?"
"Don't ask stupid questions! How would I know?" Derela glared at him. "If I knew, I would have gone after him already."
"What exactly happened?" Zayn questioned her anxiously. "What else do you know?"
"The Giblo family, along with the Gold family, bullied Carla, " said Derela impatiently. "They also chased away a vegetative patient, a cripple, and Alpha too. They refused to let them stay in the hospital. Alpha was running a fever, and Carla had to beg an old man named Spence or something like that to get her a place in the hospital. I have long heard that none of the Giblo family are good people, and it turned out to be true. While you were lying around half-dead, they took the opportunity to bully defenseless people. What a bunch of scoundrels!"
"Wait…"
Zayn was trying to make sense of what Derela was saying. Her story was not in sequence, and she did not even have some of the names. It was about as good as not telling him anything.
However, after thinking long and hard about her story, he managed to figure out what was going on.
"You must be referring to the Gold family of Konadra. While I was out, they must have tried to steal Giblo Group's assets. I can only assume that b_stard Boris is in cahoots with them. Together, they must have taken over the board of directors and chased Carla out of the Giblo family. After that, they kidnapped the children in order to threaten Carla. As for the vegetative patient, could it be Benard? He got shot because he was trying to save me. Most likely, he is alive but still in a coma. As for the cripple, it must be either Brandy or Bugara. They injured themselves while rescuing others from the fire."
