Chapter 198 - The Captive Part 1
Andromeda is dreaming that she was in the parking lot when suddenly Ellen came with her bodyguards, she had paper bags with her when suddenly all her bodyguards collapsed on the ground. She panicked and the last guard standing covered her and pushed her to the car telling her to leave.
She moved quickly and get in on the driver's seat. It didn't take long when she went in. Then she started driving the car in a rush. She turned on the emergency alarm to send it to Andel and her brothers. Then Andel immediately called her. She answered it.
"Baby?"
"Andel! I need you! My bodyguards are down!" She panicked. "Men are after me." She cried and hiccupped a little. historical
"Calm down. Your fitness watch, are you wearing it?"
"Yes.."
"Keep the tracker on, I'll already locating you, don't hung up."
"I won't."
She hit the break when cars surrounded her. She wiped her tears and exhaled. She will get ready anytime. She then hit the break and didn't care how much damage it will take for those cars. The very good thing the car is it's four-by-four and bulletproof. Andel upgrades all the car that she's using to bulletproof.
Now, they are shooting her car, but she kept on hitting the cars in front of her. Until one trying to break the glass.
"Andel!"
"Keep going," Andel told. "Baby, I need you to calm down. I need you to fight. I will be there soon, okay?"
"Yes.. Okay.. I love you, Andel." She cried and though she's crying, her eyes are fierce trying to fight all of those.
Andromeda woke up from her sleep. She sat up and then looked at Zach standing beside the bed. He sat down and reached her face. Then he reached the towel and wiped her sweats.
"Ellen is in danger." She told and hold him. Zachary is silent for a while then he called Ellen's bodyguard to make sure that she's safe.
"They just confirmed that she's fine and she's in the restaurant."
"Okay." She went to the bathroom and take a quick cold shower then wrapped the towel around her hair and she started rummaging on her clothes.
Zachary didn't leave yet and watched her gather her things quickly. He took his briefcase and followed her. He held her hand to calm her down and she stopped with a sigh.
"Let's talk in the car." He told.
They settled in the car and he drove carefully to his company building.
"Hmm, are you okay?" He reached her hand.
"Zach, I just dream something bad that is going to happen. I will visit Ellen and make sure that she's safe." She told. "I can't calm down, Zach."
"I understand. Do you want me to come with you?"
"No. I will do it on my own. You canceled a lot in your work." She kissed his cheeks. He stopped the car in front of the building, and he took his briefcase and reached her face and pressed his lips to her forehead and then sucked her lower lip passionately.
"I will be with you later. I'll call Ellen to check on her again." He told. She only nodded and let him leave.
She switched to the driver's seat and drive to Ellen's restaurant. When she saw Ellen, she was relieved. She's wearing a tortoise color t-shirt dress and she's helping on serving. She waved at her as she strode toward her.
"Hi, I will prepare foods for you and hang over the drink." She winked.
Andromeda settled on the corner and massaged her head. A server gave her a cold glass of water with lemon and she thanked her. She sipped on the water and the coldness and refreshing taste relax her.
Ellen prepared more food for her and she waited patiently. The most important thing for her is to see her safe at that moment. She closed her eyes and relaxes on the sofa and the famishing food came and her servants serve it to her. She opened her eyes as Ellen sat down across her.
"I haven't eaten anything yet and I am planning to cook for Andel later. I think I should also cook for my brothers and tell someone to deliver it to the company."
"Andel would love the food that you prepare."
"Well, he will just pick it up here later.. I could still see him during lunch."
"Hmm. Very tricky." She told and reached the spoon and fork. She first tasted everything. The food just exploded on her mouth and they eat and talked and talked until she finished all of it without any residue.
She sighed and rubbed her stomach.
"I will burn all of that later. I am so grateful that I came here." She said. "I am too drunk to even make breakfast for my husband. It's a little frustrating." She sighed. "I wanted to always cook for him.. but he's even more worried about me."
"That's my brother," Ellen told. "Andy, he loved you so much all of these years. Even after your break up with him, he never stopped loving. He sometimes became absent-minded and staring at nowhere during those events and then in few seconds, he's holding your photo staring at it. I caught him many times. Even when he's sleeping with other women, he would blurt out your name and the woman would be running out from the room and screamed at him about your name."
Andromeda's shoulders dropped and she stared at her for a while and looked away. She crossed her arms and rubbed her forearms.
"Andy, even though my brother was a jerk and a fool to leave you.. I know that he did it because he loves you. I am sorry for not telling you and trying to talk to you to go back to him.. I can see a lot of pain from him, though he was silent. None of our family knows what happened.. no one ever comforts him."
"I—I think the past doesn't matter anymore. He's with me right now and he said that he will never promise again because he will never leave me." She said and pressed her lips.
Andromeda couldn't get over it again. She's happy that Zach is with her now, but the trauma of losing her child was the worst.
"I'm sorry that I open this for you.. But all is well and we are only fighting for a few crises together."
The door opens and a man in black polo shirt entered and strode towards them. He kissed Andy's head and patted Ellen's head.
"I wanted something to eat. The very best." Steven said. Ellen rolled her eyes and he looked around like he's searching for someone. "I just saw a chick yesterday. Can we review the CCTV?" He winked at her in a very adorable way.
"I don't know what's with your style Steven." Ellen stood and lead him to her office. Andromeda followed and he turned over. He set the time and date and adjust the hairline of the playback mode of CCTV.
Then, there it is. A woman wearing a black outfit entered and sat at the very corner. A server approached her for her order. She pointed out two meals and the server left. Steven started at the woman like she's a famishing food.
"Damn, I'm gonna fuck that woman. Andel talked to her yesterday.." Then on the video, Andel approached the woman.
Andy sighed and stared at Steven. Is he the way so that Freya wouldn't kill Selina? Well, she will play along and probably use Steven. Steven has been in the military for four years since he was twenty--the same with his twin brother Stanley.
"I'm going to lead you to that woman. Make sure to make her fall on you." Andromeda offers.
His eyes shine and smiled up at her like she's a savior.
"Sure. I'm going to give her to heaven." He winked. Steven is known to be a Casanova but every woman he encounters knew that he only needed a one night stand with them.
"Impregnate her if you must." She murmured.
"Oh, this is trouble." Ellen held her head.
"Hey! I don't want to impregnate anyone!" Steven interjected.
