100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Day Twenty Nine...

~~*****~~

Violet didn't know what to do since Stephen was already badly beaten up. Bam-Bam also arrived at that time, seeing Stephen's sorry state. His gorgeous face received bruises from Agustav's punches.

But Agustav targeted his body specifically his stomach, causing Stephen to fall to the ground. He tried to get up, kneeling on his right leg. He just sneered at Agustav as he wiped the blood off his face.

"Oh no! Doctor Zhou is badly hurt. I wonder if Master will hold me responsible for this. I am not allowed to intervene." Bam-Bam flew back and forth, feeling anxious. He was worried that Abigail might scold him big time.

"Gosh! I have to inform Master about this. Maybe Nathan can do something for them." Bam-Bam couldn't save them. He could only watch what was happening there. In the end, the magical flying creature decided to come back and informed Abigail about this situation.

As of now, a magical creature like him couldn't use his power in this situation because it was against the rule of being a soul keeper. He had limitations.

In just a blink of an eye, Bam-Bam disappeared. He used his supernatural power to teleport back to Country M where Abigail was waiting for him.

Meanwhile, at Towerville City Hospital, Abigail was secretly watching Nathan and Ethan on the back. Abigail was reluctant to approach the father and son duo since Nathan's expression was very gloomy. It did not take long before Chantha contacted Nathan to report what happened to her twin sister and Stephen.

Nathan excused himself from Ethan upon seeing Chantha's caller ID. He knew that she had an important message to deliver to him. Not allowing Ethan to know his involvement with the Syphiruz Mafia, Nathan made sure to leave the ward before answering Chantha.

Little Ethan could only sigh helplessly. He could sense that his father was trying to hide something from him. What would happen to his Uncle Stephen now? Ethan was lost in his thoughts when Abigail finally made her presence known to him. She sat down next to Ethan.

She could move around the VIP ward after removing the IV drip in her left hand. "Don't worry too much, Ethan. Your Uncle Stephen will be safe. Your Dad will find a way to keep him safe." Abigail wanted to console the young boy.

Ethan just bobbed his head, flashing his adorable smile. "I know, Miss Abi. Dad will do everything just to protect the people close to him. I wish he would do the same to you. I hope that he will keep you safe starting today."

Abigail smiled faintly, a little bit embarrassed. Ethan was truly wishing them to be on good terms and get closer.

"By the way, Ethan... who called your Dad?" Abigail asked, feeling curious. She turned in the direction of the closed door where Nathan disappeared to.

Ethan shook his head as he didn't recognize the caller. "I don't know, Miss Abi. Branch Leader was the Caller ID."

Abigail became more curious. She could tell that this had something to do with the Syphiruz Mafia and the team who was sent to get Phantomflake back.

They were still talking when Bam-Bam showed up. He immediately waved his paws when he met Abigail's gaze. Abigail motioned Bam-Bam to go to the bathroom and she would follow. She couldn't talk to him in front of Ethan.

"Ethan, just stay here. I will just go to the comfort room." Abigail simply said goodbye to Ethan. The young boy obediently listened to her. He stayed in the mini-living room, waiting for both Abigail and Nathan to come back.

When Abigail entered the comfort room, Bam-Bam immediately pounced on her and began to report what he had seen in the Red Dragon Mafia's Sanitarium.

"Master! We are too late. The team that was sent by Nathan was cornered and trapped in the Sanitarium. Many of their comrades died."

"How about Stephen?" Abigail couldn't hide the worries in her tone.

"He was badly beaten up by the Leader of the Red Dragon. I immediately came back because Doctor Zhou was getting bullied. A ruthless guy made him a punching bag."

Abigail had already expected this. If they were in an enemy's territory, it was already given that they would experience some kind of torture. They would love to pick on their trapped and helpless prey and assault them, making them suffer. They would show their dominance to their target, telling them that they were at their mercy.

"The Red Dragon told the Syphiruz Mafia to contact them for negotiation, otherwise, they would kill their hostages. Only five people from the Syphiruz, including Stephen, stayed alive. But the members of the Red Dragon were also violent and unpredictable. Who knows they might kill the remaining members of Syphiruz one by one." Bam-Bam spoke spontaneously, reporting everything he had witnessed.

"There is a woman there, accompanying Stephen. He protected her while diverting the attention of the enemies from the woman to him. If he didn't provoke them, they would have touched the woman already. Thanks to Stephen's protective instinct."

Abigail's face contorted upon hearing that. When a woman was involved, Abigail couldn't help but feel the rage surging up inside her. She didn't want to see a woman being sexually assaulted and taken advantage of by those disgusting bad guys. She felt like she wanted to kill someone at this moment.

"If I were there, I am going to kill them!" Abigail mumbled through her gritted teeth.

Bam-Bam bobbed his head. "I understand you, Master. Nathan must make a move now before it becomes too late for them. They are demanding to talk to the Supreme Leader of the Syphiruz."

Abigail marched out of the comfort room. She would want to know if Nathan already had the plan to rescue his comrades.

Ethan: "Miss Abi, where are you going?"

Bam-Bam: "Master, where are you going?"

The two asked her in unison. But Abigail just raised her left hand, stopping the two from following her. "Just stay here..." She was referring to both.

Bam!

Abigail closed the door, leaving Bam-Bam and Ethan behind. She followed Nathan.

Meanwhile, Nathan was just standing in the corner near Abigail's VIP ward. He was talking to someone over the phone. Abigail silently traced her steps toward him and hid from him. She made sure to eavesdrop on their conversation.

"This is my fault. I shouldn't have let Stephen join the team..." Nathan started blaming himself. According to Chantha, the Red Dragon Mafia already captured Stephen, Violet, and others. She already reported that several members died during the ambush.

"I already allowed him because he was so determined to rescue Phantomflake..." Nathan added, clenching his fist. Nathan was expressing his feelings because he was now talking to Aiden.

Chantha was done reporting to him and he already ordered Axel to contact the Red Dragon Mafia for a negotiation.

"What?! What had gotten into him? Why did he do such a dangerous job?! He was supposed to treat his clients in his clinic, not go to a foreign land, surrounded by armed men!" Aiden reacted exasperatedly. With his loud voice, Abigail could even hear his voice from that distance.

"Because of Phantomflake. He did it because of her." Nathan mumbled, massaging his temples. He hadn't noticed Abigail's presence.

Abigail, on the other hand, arched her eyebrow in amusement. She was wondering why Stephen did the mission for her. She wanted to scold Nathan for allowing Stephen to do that dangerous mission.

'Are they both insane?' Abigail complained in her mind.

"Why her? Why is it my two best friends are so obsessed with Phantomflake?! I know your reason, but how about Stephen? I couldn't fathom his line of thinking at all! He is so hard to figure out sometimes!" Aiden kept on lamenting. He was acting like this because he was worried sick about Stephen.

"Because he was acquainted with her. Stephen knew Phantomflake!" Nathan revealed this to Aiden.

Aiden was taken aback for a moment. But not only him... Abigail was also stupefied when she heard those words from Nathan.

'What? Stephen knew me? How come? I can't remember talking to him before... Do I know him?' Abigail mused to herself. She racked her brain so hard but she couldn't remember meeting Stephen before.

Did she lose her memory? Or maybe, Stephen only mistook her for someone who looked similar to her.

"Aiden, let's talk later. I still need to do something. Rescuing Stephen is my priority right now. I have to go." Nathan hung up and was about to return to the VIP Ward when he bumped into Abigail. She was lost in her train of thought that she forgot to avoid Nathan.

"Aww!" Abigail hit her nose on Nathan's sturdy chest.

"Abi? What are you doing here?" Nathan asked her in disbelief, his hands were holding her shoulder and the back of her waist to support her. Their bodies were pressed at each other.

'Oh, Shit! I got caught again.' Abigail closed her eyes and bit her lower lip.
