Chapter 394 - RUNAWAY

Under the cold hands of Lis and Lexus, it was a piece of cake to control the market by taking over most of the shares owned by the Dawson family, although news of the kidnapping of Ramon and Hailee was still a hot topic.

It was not that they didn't care about Ramon and Hailee's safety, but under these conditions, if they didn't strengthen their position, then it would be even more difficult for them to find Hailee and Ramon.

This showed that the Tordoff company was powerful and that people who were after this company should not do anything stupid.

This step was also taken to protect them from unnecessary internal or external problems.

At least, seeing how the Tordoff company took over from the Dawson company, they would think twice before attacking this family.

And besides, of course Diego was looking for the quickest way to find Ramon and Hailee, trying to find Leon's hideout.

They tried to follow Giana, but the woman had disappeared from the public eye.

No one had seen her since the last board meeting and now, Dawson's company was run by the younger brother of Giana's father, who seemed to be struggling to keep the company stable.

"Who's this?" Lexus asked when he picked up a foreign call on his cell phone.

"Ian," a male voice answered from the other end.

Immediately, Lexus sat up. "My brother has taken the hard road to send you to safety, why are you back already?" Lexus grumbled. He wasn't in the mood to get into new trouble with Ian's business, the existing problems were already enough to hurt his head.

"I'm not looking for trouble, okay?" Ian grumbled. "It's not that hard for Ramon to find a place for me to hide after all." Since it wasn't Ramon who was looking for the place, the bastard just approved of the idea.

"Where are you now?"

"At Town A airport," Ian answered directly. "Send someone to pick me up."

"I'll send you a ticket, you can go back to your hiding place instead," Lexus replied.

"No, thank you. Where are you?"

"At the office," Lexus answered automatically.

"Don't go anywhere, I'll take a taxi and you'll pay as soon as I get there."

"What?" Shameless bastard. Lexus grumbled resentfully. However, a moment later, Lexus remembered something.

"You're from the Arena, aren't you?" Lexus asked immediately.

"Arena?" Ian frowned. Why did Lexus suddenly ask this question? "Yeah, I'm from there."

"Good," Lexus said, sounding much more excited than before.

"Hmm?" Ian still didn't understand the sudden change in the tone Lexus used when talking to him.

"Come here quickly, we have important things to talk about," Lexus said, then disconnected the line.

=================

At first, Giana intended to visit Hailee, but her already chaotic mind that was confused by the drugs she had just used, made Giana cancel her intention. Instead she turned down the corridor and headed for the place where Ramon was being held captive.

Giana's face brightened when she saw that two men, apparently the guards, were about to give Ramon a new dose.

In the hands of one of the men, was a syringe that they would give to Ramon, so that the man could be easier to manage.

This had been routinely done after Ramon's attack on Giana and the man almost managed to escape.

"Leave us alone," Giana said excitedly, she walked over to the guard who was holding the syringe, and grabbed it.

One of them tried to stop Giana because they knew this woman wasn't in the right mind, but of course Giana didn't want to listen to them.

Therefore, the two of them could only stand in the doorway and wait to see what this woman would do.

Meanwhile, Ramon sat with his head down, and his back leaning against the wall behind him. He looked like he was sleeping, but when Ramon heard footsteps approaching him, he lifted his head.

Sweat dripped down Ramon's face and his hands trembled slightly. The effects of the medicine were so strong that it made Ramon look so affected when they were too late to give him the next dose.

"Are you happy to see me? Are you happy to see me now?" Giana asked cheerfully, waving the syringe in her hand.

Ramon's eyes narrowed when he saw the disgusting thing, because he knew what would happen next.

"Why are you silent? I asked you if you were happy to see me…" Giana repeated her question.

At this point, Giana was nothing like the woman who ran the Dawson company single-handedly. She didn't look like a woman from a prominent family but like a woman who lived in delusions, and was unable to manage her life properly.

"Ramon… you know, don't you, that I love you so much?" Giana muttered, and took Ramon's hand, stroking it gently.

Ramon's hands were clasped together in front of his body, shackled by a handcuff.

"I can't possibly hurt you," Giana said softly, she then kissed Ramon's hand very passionately.

Ramon still didn't react to the woman's actions.

"But, you actually hurt me in such a way…"

Ramon still didn't utter a word, but when Giana stuck the needle into his arm, Ramon made a movement that was quite shocking and broke the needle.

"Ramon!" Giana screamed when she saw the broken needle, as well as the blood flowing from the wound on his arm.

However, Ramon didn't seem to notice that, his forehead didn't even wrinkle at all.

Seeing this incident, one of the guards who was standing at the door, immediately entered and dragged Giana out of the room.

But, the woman screamed angrily, as she hit, scratched and tried to free herself.

"I WILL TELL UNCLE LEON THAT YOU ARE TREATING ME LIKE THIS!" she cried angrily.

However, the guard shouted back at Giana. "This is an order from Leon!" With great difficulty, the guard pulled Giana out by dragging her. "You get another shot," the guard ordered his friend, as he struggled to get rid of Giana.

"Okay," said the second guard, who then closed the door and left Ramon there alone.

After the silence and as the sound of Giana's struggling voice getting further and further away, Ramon used the needle still stuck in his arm to open the handcuffs.

This was difficult to do, considering the needles weren't very strong, so he had to break them in half first, and also because his mind seemed to be in a fog, due to the effects of the medicine they gave him.

===================

The guard returned with a fresh shot and when he opened the door, he frowned to find an empty room.
