She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 678: HE’S FINALLY DOWN

“Boss, this is the place where I have located the signal and the IP address.” Tristan expressed while showing Stefan the map where Napoleone was hiding. “Two of our men went ahead and scouted the place but they couldn’t find any lodging or any house where someone can stay.”

Stefan studied the map and other details which could possibly help them. Since there wasn’t any house where Napoleone can stay surely, there should be a place where he could hide even if it was not a house.

“Did they find some abandoned properties? Anything. It can be a warehouse, a house, an unfinished building, a car – anything.” Stefan inquired while keeping his eyes on the map. On the northern part of the map, there was a river that separated the place from another property. To the west was a private-owned land which has live wires as fences. The east side was a huge piece of land that the government-owned in order to build a new hospital.

The property where the signal appeared wasn’t really a big area but it was enough for someone to hide and make a run to escape. They just needed proper planning.

“Martin, bring some people and guard the north side of this area. Erwin, help me guard the east. Rey, bring some of our men to the west. Tristan, monitor the highway for me and make sure that no one will leave this area. I’ll come and check the whole place.”

“Are you crazy?! What if he installed some cameras and he’s monitoring you?”

“I highly doubt it at this point. I have a gut feeling that he has no one by his side now.”

.....

“And what if you are mistaken? What if something happens to you? What am I going to tell the madam about it?” Tristan retorted quickly and at the same time, he tightened his grip on Stefan’s arm to stop him. “How about I go on your behalf?”

“And what am I supposed to tell Elena if something happens to you?”

“Nothing. Yeah, sure, she’ll be sad but she won’t mourn for me.”

Stefan frowned at his response and he couldn’t stop himself from narrowing his eyes at his secretary. “I thought you two have been doing well.”

“We were. It’s just that, some things aren’t meant for us.”

After arguing back and forth, they both decided to go and check the place themselves. Stefan was very meticulous when it comes to looking for hiding spots. He was very observant of every movement and he kept his eyes and ears sharp for anything suspicious.

He checked the dilapidated house, the abandoned car, and the old-aged barn which was no longer functioning. Tristan has searched for some information regarding this place and it was said that this was a private-owned place but there was no decent property that would indicate that someone was residing in this area.

The two of them continued to walk around with only the moon’s bright light as their guide. Not noticing the protruding metal on the ground, Tristan stepped on it and something on the garage wall has moved.

They immediately walked over but Stefan noticed a creeping shadow that was moving away from them. “There he is!” without giving a second thought, he fired his gun with his aim on the man’s head. Sadly, the night didn’t help him see his target properly.

“He’s running to the east part. Get prepared!” Stefan commanded while chasing after the man.

Napoleone smiled when his lackey successfully baited Stefan to chase after him. He immediately got out of his hiding place and ran to the northern part. Unfortunately, Tristan hadn’t gotten far from the garage and he immediately saw Napoleone.

“Stefan, come back here! That’s a bait! Our target is heading north.”

Napoleone angrily pulled the trigger of his gun and shoot Tristan on his arm. He was confident in his running skills and since he thought that Stefan hadn’t planned properly, he dashed straight to the north area where he could cross the river and get to the next property.

There, he met Martin’s men and bullets rained on him. He was quick to take cover behind the abandoned car but not quick enough to evade the three bullets which hit his thigh, abdomen and shoulder.

“Napoleone, just come out and face me.” Stefan calmly mentioned while waiting with his men. “We have surrounded you and there’s no chance for you to escape.”

“Ha! If you think you are wiser than me then, think again! Did you really think I’d go down by myself? Impossible! I’ll make sure to drag someone to hell with me.”

“Nah, uh uh...that won’t do. Satan won’t be happy to see uninvited visitors.”

Napoleone peeked his head to see where Stefan was but a bullet grazed the spot right in front of him. He wasn’t sure if the man missed him or if it was a warning for him to come out.

“Come on.” Stefan taunted in a bored tone. “I can’t believe you’d be so cowardly.”

“Shut up!” Napoleone angrily yelled and jumped out from where he was hiding. His gun was aimed to Stefan but when he managed to fire his gun thrice, bullets have made their way to him as well. Holes can be seen on his body from the bullets but no one felt pity while watching him slowly die on the ground.

“Throw him into the river. His life can’t be compared to those innocent people that he killed. There no need for the police to interfere this time.”

Rey and Martin readily complied and dragged Napoleone’s body to the river near them. The blood was trailing behind them but it didn’t matter to them. When they have made sure that Napoleone would die from this, Stefan walked back to his car and everyone started leaving the place – not bothering to clean their mess at all.

It was already past midnight and Stefan wasn’t home yet. Cayenne was wide awake while sitting on the porch to wait for him. Luiz already asked her to come inside for the nth time but she wouldn’t budge at all. She was feeling distress that Stefan has lied to her again but she didn’t want to blame him because it was for their own safety.

“Lord, please bring him back to me.” Cayenne prayed solemnly with her hands clasped together in tight prayer.

However, when he arrived home later, she slammed the door to his face and crossed her arms over her chest. “You are not allowed to sleep with me tonight.”
