My mother's SON-IN-LAW

89  BIANCA or QUIN - 2

"Let me talk to her first, why did you send that pic to her?" asked Chris when reality dawned on him.

Alicia has a very crazy side to her which makes her very interested I humiliating him publicly.

It's a pleasure of hers he has not been able to understand till this day.

She can be very unreasonable or calm and even cunning but when she wants to 'END YOU' she does it effortlessly.

Edward simply raised his eyebrow and said, "You know she won't listen to anything you. especially after the stunt you pulled with her company five months ago.

She lost a huge contract because of that lawsuit Chris, but your stubbornness made her even crazier."

Chris glared at him fervently.

Of course he knew about her craziness, but he couldn't help her much with the lawsuit anyway. They needed that client in the law firm and he sacrificed a simple contract from his little sister for it.

Although it was really wrong of him to do that, he really was in a tight position. But he had agreed to help her out the next time she would find herself in a very sticky situation. It just so seems that she wasn't in one at the moment since Frank Hanover took over as the Chairman.

The man is like a god for some reason.

Every lawsuit they had scheduled ended outside of court. More like they all felt as if they would loose the lawsuit anyway so why would they waste their time and money on it anyway.

Noah on the other hand took their distraction as a way of escape.

He hurriedly tidied himself up and was about to walk away when something finally dawned on him, 'ALICIA ? she's been in that room with Liam for longer than needed, She had just escaped from his hands yet she was now alone with him in an enclosed room.'

He turned back lightly and said, "Where is Alicia?"

that simple question rang bells on both Edward and Chris's mind.

'Right, they were here to take her back home with them. Why is she taking longer than expected?'

What if, .....

The three of them dashed back into the restaurant with their hearts in their hands.

They had been too careless, they little girl would disappear from them again just like five years ago.

They can't let that happen in their watch.

When they got into the room it was total doom for the three of them

'SHE'S GONE'

and looking at the grilled cheese which was untouched as well as the crumbs in the other seat which looked like it was from another grilled cheese sandwich as well. They realised fully that she was basically kidnapped after she ate the sandwich.

'little foodie idiot!'

Edward simply took out his phone and looked at the message he had sent to her. The fact that he was left of 'read' meant that she wasn't taken by someone who wanted any ransom from them in tern.

This only meant that there was only 'one person' who could have taken her, ...

Edward quickly put his phone away and lightly said, "Liam, it had to be that idiot again. I really can't stand his dumb face."

Noah, ".."

Chris, "..."

'we understand that you hate him but why did you sound like you were cheated for some reason?

Your acting like a little kid.

Noah on the side chuckled a little and said, "we might be staying in Paris for a while longer than I had planned."

with that he took out his phone and started doodling on it seriously.

Chris was speechless. His sister was kidnapped here, why did it sound like he was planning for a vacation instead.

Edward on the other side called Felix's phone and waited for him to answer the call.

Felix on the other side of the call furrowed his brows when he saw that the caller's ID was unknown. It was almost impossible for him to actually receive any call from anyone. It was he who had always been the one to call people up instead.

After a few moments of contemplation he answered the phone lightly with, "This is Cezar."

Edward raised his brow at the person who answered and said, "Mr Felix Cezar."

Felix had the side of his lips curved upwards when he heard the caller's words and said, "I'm well known. But I hate to be the bearer of bad news. I'm not interested in men."

Edward, "..."

Felix continued with, "I'm not gay."

Edward's mouth twitched completely by the fearless words he heard from the man.

What would have made him think that he was trying to hit on him?

What on earth was he thinking.

Edward coughed furiously from his words and Felix and the other hand laughed when he heard his reaction.

Without wasting anymore time Felix then asked, "Who are you and what do you want?"

Edward on the other side could feel the pressure in his voice when he spoke to him.

There was a hidden chilliness in it. He found himself shuddering.

He simply answered him with, "Edward, I'm, ..."

he was cut off but Felix said, "Alicia's brother, what do you from me?"

Edward was speechless.

Not many people knew that Alicia addressed him as her brother. Although they were both born from different families, he had always taken her as his little peanut sister.

But this man knew that so easily.

He had a newfound respect for the man.

Without wasting any more time, he said, "She's been kidnapped."

There was a silent moment in the other side of the call before Felix simply said, "So?"

Edward smiled and said, "It's Liam Walker again. He took her while we were in the same restaurant with them."

Felix quickly answered with, "Useless".

and there was another string of silence and after a while he continued with, "What do you want to do now?"

Edward didn't answer him for a while as if he was thinking or something.

A small smile played at Edwards lips as he said, "Why don't you decide? As her father that is, ..."
