"Who are you?" Ellena asked the figure of the unknown man who seemed to be standing beside her.
I don't know who the man who was about 35 years old. There is a thin beard that grows around his cheeks and has a firm jawline. Not to mention the all-black uniform that wrapped his body. Neat. However, impressed like a secret agent.
The man gripped Ellena's wrist tightly, without intending to let go.
"Let go! Why are you doing this to me? Who are you? What did I do to you, ha?" snapped Ellena trying to rebel by stomping and pulling her hand from the grip of the tall and sturdy man.
However, nothing. Ellena still couldn't beat the strength of the man's burly hands.
"Please let me go or I'll scream for everyone here to hear and arrest you, hey, Unethical!" said Ellena immediately gave a threat to the man.
"Shut up!" growled the man.
Instead of letting go, the man pulled Ellena's hand towards the back door of the restaurant.
"Let go! What did you do to me, ha? What did I do wrong that you treat me rudely like this?" Ellena screamed as she tried to free the man's hand. However, she was too weak to fight a man who had strength as hard as steel.
"Shut up! Did you not hear what I said? Do you want me to kill you right now?" snapped the man as they walked out of the restaurant through the back door.
I don't know what the man's motive was for dragging Ellena like that. Could it be that he intended to kidnap Ellena? Oh, can't let it go. Until when will Ellena have to face the harsh reality continuously. What a poor woman.
"I won't hesitate to scream, if you don't let me go!" threatened Ellena still didn't want to give up on saving herself.
"Help m-"
Just as Ellena was about to scream for help, suddenly the man managed to smother her mouth and suddenly she could no longer continue the only action that could help her.
"Haish, damn it!" The man cursed, then opened the black car door and pushed Ellena inside.
Instantly Ellena fell on the back seat of the car, due to a strong push from the man's hand.
"Help-"
"Shut up! You want my life to be killed right now, huh?" sarcasm the man, then grabbed a piece of duct tape from the front car seat pocket.
In one tug he tore off the duct tape and placed it against Ellena's lips. The best way so that Ellena no longer screams that can invite the masses.
Not only that, the man also linked Ellena's hands behind her back, tying them with the duct tape.
"Hmmf!" Ellena shook her head without being able to get a word out of her mouth. She didn't think she would have such bad luck.
Meanwhile, the bearded man didn't care at all. She immediately closed the back door of the car with one strong push, then she took the driver's seat. Now there was only Ellena and the man in the car.
Ellena must have rebelled even more by tugging trying to free her hands that were already tied with duct tape. Panic, fear and tension? Of course. She didn't know where the man would take her, as soon as the car engine started and sped off, out of the restaurant building area.
"Hmmfft!" Ellena kept convulsing and moving her body, trying to pull the hand that was in the black bandage of the adhesive.
It seemed that the man had wrapped the tape around Ellena's hands so many times that it was very difficult for her to take her hands off.
"Shut up, Miss. I won't do anything bad, if you're willing to cooperate with me." The man said, grinning sarcastically with his eyes focused on the steering wheel.
'What does it mean not to do evil? Wouldn't it be a crime for him to kidnap me like this?' Ellena thought angrily.
Again she tried to pull her hand away. However, again her efforts failed. The vibrating cell phone in her bag caught her attention.
'That must be Mr Richard. Ah, she must be really worried about me. Sir, help me. I need your help right now,' muttered Ellena who could only scream in her heart.
Meanwhile, at the restaurant where Richard and Adley had a meeting, Richard looked panicked when his phone repeatedly didn't get an answer from Ellena. He looked restless, starting to worry about Ellena. He looked back over and over again, right in the direction of the toilet. However, the figure he was waiting for did not appear.
This immediately caught the attention of Adley, who had been aware of his client's anxiety.
"What's the matter, Mr. Richard? You seem quite agitated. Did something happen?" asked Adley curiously.
Maybe Adley's question seemed presumptuous because it was too to the point, but Adley was also worried when he saw his client was nervous like that. That was why he needed to make sure, because there was no way the meeting would have gone well if Richard's mind had wandered all over the place.
Richard gasped and immediately turned to Adley, while in his right hand was still a mobile phone. Ah, why did this meeting turn into a mess like this, when Adley was an important client for him.
He must have felt bad for Adley, but Ellena worried him even more.
'How can she ignore my calls in a situation like this? Where exactly did she go?' Richard muttered, wondering to himself.
"Hm ... I'm waiting for my secretary. I don't know why until this moment she still hasn't come back from the toilet. I'm so worried about her," replied Richard with a worried expression.
"Have you contacted her, Sir?" asked Adley to be sure. He seemed to quite understand Richard's concerns at this point.
"It's been several times, but there's been no response at all. She didn't even reply to the messages I sent. The last time she replied to a message from me was about 10 minutes ago and she said, she'd be back soon, but until this second it still hasn't come," explained Richard. frankly.
"I beg your pardon, Sir. Our meeting became such a mess," added Richard feeling uneasy.
"Oh, no problem, Sir. Take it easy." Adley replied, trying to understand the situation. He was sure that Richard didn't want that to happen either. "Shouldn't it be better to go straight to the toilet, Sir?" He added advice.
"Yeah, looks like I'll have to catch up with her, but . . . ." Richard hung up as doubts invaded his heart. Yes, how could he possibly do that, while men are not allowed to enter the women's restroom.
"Ah, you can ask my secretary to catch up Miss Patricia," said Adley, who immediately understood Richard's confused expression.
"Yes, you're right, Sir." Richard replied, smiling happily, though anxiety was still on his mind. "Miss Livia, can you help me?" He asked, looking at Livia expectantly.
"Oh yes, of course, Sir. With pleasure.." Livia replied without a problem.
