"Hey, don't play stupid, you bastard! You ordered us to arrest a woman. Who would've known that she is such an important person! Aiden brought a lot of people here and he will wipe us all off the earth. Quickly sort this out or I'll let your sister go to Aiden and get the money he offers. Don't blame us if we give your name to him!"

"Is there a misunderstanding? Is the woman you kidnapped really my sister? My sister and I were not close, but why did you kidnap her? I don't know who ordered you, but if my sister is really in your hands, I suggest you let her go. Don't think about getting money from Aiden. You will suffer instead!" Agnes said calmly.

​​

The bodyguard stared at Aiden in confusion, not knowing what to say. He did not expect Agnes to not fall into his trap and still lies to them.

Aiden immediately typed a sentence using his cellphone and showed his bodyguard. The man then nodded quickly.

"It's impossible to let go. She already saw our faces. And you've seen ours. So we will not let you go," the guard approached Agnes, carrying a knife.

Upon hearing the threat, Agnes felt her throat tighten, "Wait, wait… Calm down! I will never report you!"

"At the time of the incident, there was no CCTV recording our actions because the flood had destroyed everything. Once you die, we will be safe," the guard put his knife around Agnes' neck. "Very beautiful. Too bad you will die like this."

"Please wait a moment. Shall we discuss it first? My uncle has a lot of money. As long as you let me go, he will give you everything!" Agnes said frantically.

Aiden typed again then picked up the phone. After seeing the contents, Aiden's bodyguard immediately patted Agnes on the cheek using the flat part of the knife. "Your uncle? He's not even your father. Why would he spend so much money to save you? Don't brag!"

"I ... I am his daughter!" Agnes said.

The bodyguard laughed loudly. The more she pretended, the more convincing her acting became. "Galih Pratama's eldest daughter is dead. And we are currently holding Anya, his youngest daughter, hostage. Are you his daughter too? Where do you come from? An illegitimate child, huh?"

"Illegitimate child? No!" Agnes said angrily. "You only want money, right? I can give you money. I really don't want to die. As long as you let me go, I will never report you. If the police questioned me, I would say that I didn't see your faces clearly."

The bodyguard turned to Aiden and asked for help. Agnes was too cautious and did not divulge any information.

Previously, Anya had complained to Aiden because her father paid too much attention to Agnes. Because of that, Indah was annoyed at her husband because he loved her niece more than her own daughter.

Who would have thought that Agnes turned out to be Galih's real daughter?

Aiden thought for a moment and then rushed to write a new sentence on his cell phone. When his bodyguard saw it, he was momentarily shocked.

"You damn liar! Anya said the same thing! Do you think we will believe that? Look, this is the woman who made us have to face Aiden and Galih. She looks beautiful. It's a waste if we're just going to kill her. Why not play with her for a while? If she dies, let's find a safe place to bury her!" The bodyguard immediately tore the hospital gown that Agnes was wearing using the knife he was carrying.

Agnes felt the wind blow against her skin. She shuddered when she imagined what would happen to her.

She didn't know where she was and how many people were there. But she could hear many whistling sounds. Those people dared to threaten her with knives and kidnap her somewhere she didn't know.

She was terrified when she imagined what those people would do.

Aiden waved his hand at the bodyguards around him. The guards' hands were shaking slightly but they were trying to do their job very well.

"Ahhhh!" Agnes screamed as Aiden's bodyguards touched her body. "Don't touch me. I want to meet Reza!"

The man then looked at Aiden and waited for further instructions.

Aiden used his cell phone one more time and showed it to his bodyguard. The large hand of the guard fell onto Agnes' shoulder. "Reza has run away and he cannot be contacted. This is all your fault. Who told you to see our faces!"

"I don't see you all clearly. I've forgotten, I swear! If you let me go, I can give you whatever you want!" Agnes shook her body from side to side, trying to get rid of the big hand that was holding her shoulders. But the hand didn't want to move either.

The broad palm stroked Agnes's shoulder and slowly went up to her neck. Agnes could feel her heart rising, and her throat choked, making it difficult for her to breathe. "I have 10 billion! Don't touch me!"

"10 billion? Are you serious?" The guard's hand stopped moving.

"Yes! 10 billion! I promise. I won't report you. But… but my sister is evil. She's not like me. I'm sure she won't just let you go. So…"

"Pretty girl, don't worry. I can solve everything for you. So you can calm down and be the only daughter of your father. As long as you give the money to me," the bodyguard caressed Agnes' body again.

"Stop!" said Agnes. "When are you going to let me go?"

"After I got the money!" Following Aiden's order, the bodyguard took Agnes' cell phone and sent 10 billion to Anya's bank account.

In order to free herself, Agnes actually paid the 10 billion.

When the guard saw Aiden's instructions, he said, "Honey, I will kill your sister now. Do you have any last messages?"

"Nothing! I don't care!" Agnes said impatiently. "I have sent the money. Now can you let me go?"

Aiden got up and walked towards Agnes. He removed the black cloth covering her eyes.

Agnes had a hard time opening her eyes because a very bright light suddenly made her shut her eyes back.

But when she saw that the figure standing in front of her was Aiden, her face immediately turned pale. "A-Aiden…"

"I heard that the attackers stabbed your stomach. Is it here?" Aiden took the knife held by his bodyguard and stabbed Agnes in the stomach without hesitation. "You pretended to be hurt, you should have acted better."

"Aiden, you…" Agnes was shaking with pain and couldn't speak.

"Don't let her die. Send her back to the hospital," Aiden said coldly.

The guards immediately covered the wound on Agnes' stomach with a bandage to ensure that she did not lose too much blood until she arrived at the hospital.

Aiden brought some of his men to go to the village and besiege Reza.

However, Reza continues to dodge and does not want to admit that Anya is in his hands.

But Aiden knew very well that Anya was there. Otherwise, why did Agnes suddenly mention Reza's name at a crucial moment?

How did Agnes know Reza's name if she didn't tell him to arrest Anya?

"Aiden, why did you come to my village and bring so many people?" Reza pretended not to know anything.

Aiden took out his gun and set it on the table. His face looked very calm as if the gun was just a toy.

His hand touched the gun casually, not afraid that the weapon could kill anyone at any time.

"I want to take my wife home. I hope you can help me and solve all these problems once for all."

The expression on Reza's face seemed to change. He looked surprised, stiffened and then calmed down again. Even though the change only lasted a split second, Aiden could see everything clearly.

"The person you are looking for is not here," said Reza.

"Search the whole place," Aiden said calmly. With this, his bodyguards began searching the area.

"Aiden, stop! If the person you are looking for is not here, I will definitely make you pay in a more brutal way! My men are strong enough to fight you!" Reza grinned viciously.
