THEY ARE NOW planning to take action to recur Bella's mother, but they are still looking for an opportunity to get out of the mansion unsuspecting. Dylan has already taken care of everything, the only thing they have to do is get Aling Cecil from the syndicate.
Ara entered the conference room, the first Archon was holding another meeting for another mission. She wondered why she was not called to attend the meeting, so it was too late because the meeting was over.
"Why are you here? You should be resting", ani Salem.
"What's going on? Why does no one orient me?" She asked them.
"Because we are all worried about you." Zyl said, "We appreciate your hard work, but we know you also need a break... Go get some rest", Zyl added, then tapped her shoulder and left the conference room.
Everyone who was there was shocked, it was the first time that their team's tracker hadn't scolded her. "That— was odd" she murmured.
"And new", Than added, then smiled at her "Get well soon. Let us take care of this mission, we will also return before dawn."
Salem just tapped her back lightly, then left the conference room with Than. She was left inside with the first Archon because the other crew had already left. She felt so awkward, and couldn't even speak. After what happened the other day, it never left her mind. When she woke up, the first Archon was next to her on the bed and his arm was wrapped around her waist.
She regained her senses when Zandro said to her "I didn't call you anymore because you needed a break. Just stay here in the mansion, I've added people to replace you for a while."
"Y-yeah" she sparingly answered, then turned around.
"Hey wait!" Zandro stopped her. "About what happened? Believe me, I didn't mean that."
She looked at Zandro again. "I understand" she said sparingly, "I'm going back to my room to rest."
"O-okay, there is food in the refrigerator, just heat it when you are hungry," Zandro said. Ara just nodded, then went back to her room. She immediately got dressed and put on a vest for protection. When the whole team left, she went to Bella's room, which had been waiting for her.
"Are you ready?" she asked Bella.
"Y-yeah—" Bella nodded "Do you think it will work?"
Ara was quite stunned by Bella's question "It needs to work. I will risk everything for it. That is all I can do to make up for everything that happened to you."
Bella couldn't answer, she just followed Ara into the weapons room. Ara took two guns and inserted them in her waistband and the other was given to Bella. "You will need it, just in case someone tries to hurt you, shoot them in the head", Ara reminded.
Fortunately, there was no CCTV in the hallway leading to the weapons room. After they took up the weapons, they went through Ara's bedroom window. That's the only way they couldn't be seen on camera. There they passed, then went out to the village to meet Dylan.
"So, you're Bella?" Dylan asked.
Bella nodded "Y-yeah" Dy, opened the door for them so they immediately got into the car. When Dy sat in the driver's seat, he immediately started the engine.
"We only have 9 hours to finish this mission. Alex Kang is the leader of one of the biggest syndicates, so we need to be more careful..." Ara said "The most important plan is not to die... Dy, you'll take care of the guards outside, once we get inside don't let us die!" she added then she winked to annoy him.
While Bella was just sitting quietly. Ara took Bella's hand and looked into her. "You have to trust me, we can get through it. When we get Aling Cecil, Dylan will take you both to the airport to ensure your safety."
Bella nodded and was silent throughout the trip. When they arrived in front of Alex Kang's mansion, Dylan immediately took his place. "All set, be careful" Ara heard from the earpiece.
When they entered the gate, the guards immediately took Ara's gun. It's a good thing that the mansion is full of windows. The sniper can easily do his job because there are not too many obstacles.
As soon as Ara and Bella entered the gate, Alex Kang was waiting in the garden with his men. Ara couldn't help but gulp hard when he saw the crowd of men holding guns.
When she saw Alex Kang she immediately felt angry. She was just holding back because the man hadn't released Bella's mother yet.
"Let my mother and me go, in exchange for this woman," said Bella.
Alex smiled when he saw Ara, "What a big surprise, Bella."
Bella is nervous but she tries to hide it, she needs to be strong for her mother "Ilabas mo ang Nanay ko!—"
"Relax". Alex raised his hand and signaled to his staff to show Bella's mother "Bring me the maid."
"Yes, Boss!" said the man in black sunglasses.
When Alex showed Bella's mother, her head got even heated up when she saw the bruises and scars on the body of Aling Cecil, which was obviously weakening.
"Ma!!" Bella shouted and immediately approached her mother "What did you do to my mother ?!" Bella said to Alex.
"I just played honey, it was just a little scratch," Alex replied, then grinned.
Ara clenched her fist in anger and looked sharply at Alex Kang. "Now, let them go—" she exclaimed.
Alex laughed slightly then pointed the gun at Bella and her mother. "What if I don't want to?"
"I'm what you want, right ? I'm already here, so let them go." There was a warning in Ara's voice.
"A-gatha?" Pabulong na sambit ng Ina ni Bella ng maaninag ang mukha niya. Aling Cecil looked at her daughter Bella, who hugged her tightly. "Bakit mo siya d-inala dito?."
"Ma!, Hindi natin laban ito— kailangan natin makawala!" Bella murmured.
"Stop your drama B*itches!!" Alex shouted, so Bella and Aling Cecil fell silent.
"Agatha," Alex said, then smiled at her "I have been looking for you for a long time!."
"Let them go!" ani Ara.
"Masyado ka naman nagmamadali. Gusto ko pang makipag kwentuhan sayo... When my boss gave me your photo, I was obsessed about finding you! Don ko din nalaman na ibang babae pala ang hawak ko—"
"I said let them go!!" Ara shouted with anger.
Alex stood up in annoyance. Then he fired a gun into the sky. "Don't make me angry!" Alex exclaimed, "And since you are the only one, you can only choose one of them. The daughter or— the Mother!"
Ara's eyes widened and she was having a hard time controlling her anger. "I want them both—"
"Only one honey!!. My game! My rules!" bulalas ni Alex.
"You shoot half" Ara murmured. Dy understood what Ara wanted, so he immediately shot half of the men. The leader of the syndicate scowled when half of his men fell on the ground. "F*ck!" Alex said without even moving on to his position.
"My rules darling!" Ara exclaimed, then smiled half.
Alex laughed because of Ara's courage. "I didn't expect this!. But you only give me more reason to be obsessed with claiming you!."
"Let them go, then I will think about whether I surrender myself to you", ani Ara.
"Fine, let's have a deal... I will release them both but with one condition", Alex Kang replied.
"Spit it out!—" Ara exclaimed.
"Get rid of your fellow sniper with the captive, and if you try to break the condition I demanded, I'll make sure that you all die."
"Call" she answered.
"Now, order your men to do what I want."
"You heard him? Take Bella and her mother and leave. I'll take care of this f*cker" she murmured.
"I can't leave you!—" Dylan replied from the earpiece.
"Just do it" sagot naman niya.
"Let them go". Alex orders his staff "I won't need them anymore, so go ahead... Run my little mouse!!"
When Bella and Cecil were released, they immediately ran to the gate and immediately went out. When Ara was left alone she took a deep breath before looking at Alex.
"Sigurado mo na naka-alis na sila," Alex said, then the small remote was pulled out of his pocket "Or else, they will die."
"What the!—"
"I'm not a fool to let them go that easily, darling." ani Alex pagkatapos ay humakbang ng kaunti papalapit sa kaniya "There is a microchip bomb attached to Bella's mother, and when you make a mistake, she will die."
Ara bit her lip and looked sharply at Alex. "Take them away Dylan, remove the microchip immediately. I will take care of myself" she murmured.
"Do I have no other choice?" Dy replied.
"No, just do what I tell you to do. Promise, susunod ako sa inyo." She promised. When Dylan agreed, she focused her gaze on Alex, then took a little step and gave him a warning look. "Give me the remote!" she shouted.
"If you want it?!— take it from me!" sagot naman ni Alex Kang.
