CHAPTER 38

THIRD PERSON POV

Ace lifts his phone to ring Joseph and Leo together up as soon as they answers the call, Ace greets him and tells them the situation. 

Both the cousins panic but Ace interrupts their thoughts "I want you to help me without involving Uncle Simon and Uncle Silas" 

They both agree but a few seconds later Leo asks "Why can't we tell my father or Uncle Simon?" 

"It is related to the security matters which I don't want to tell now, if it is possible bring more people." Ace says 

"Ok." Leo says while Joseph listens calmly

"Bring the people you trust" Ace says 

They hang up telling Ace that they will reach to him as soon as possible. 

Santiago who was angry came into the mansion, asking Hazel where everyone are he reaches Ace's office seeing all the brothers sat there together he looses his cool. 

"What happened how did you let this happen" Santiago asks

Steve scoffs "Why will we let anything happen to our own child And who are you to question us" he shouts 

"We were drugged and someone from our people did it" Ace says his voice getting heavy

"Where is this person" San asks 

"In the basement" Elijah says 

Santiago nods and gets out of the room searching the door to the basement. Issac calls him " wait let me take you" 

Santiago nods once again in appreciation. They enter the basement where Ava was tied to a chair and was being questioned by Arthur and Alex .

Alex turns to look at the intruder and tries his best to give an excuse for the scene he is able to see now.

Santiago waves him off saying " I know you are a mafia you don't have to give any explanation" rolling up his sleeves " I am not that good myself" he says 

"What" Alex asks him quizzed by his words.

All the brothers enters the room followed by their father and stand in the dark seeing how and what Santiago is going to do.

Santiago moves towards Ava and bends a little to see her face " Ava is it?" 

Ava nods scared by this man. "Hmm" 

He turns to Arthur and asks him "Can you let me take over?" 

Arthur hesitates a bit and steps back 

"So let me ask you politely first where is my sister" he asks turning towards Ava 

Ava doesn't speak making Santiago anger rise. He looks around and spots a kris knife kept among various tools "Ahh there you see that" he asks Ava pointing towards the knife 

"I will have to use that if you don't speak now. I won't be giving another chance so SPEAK " San says 

Ava shakes her head Santiago moves towards the knife grabbing it he goes back in front of Ava and says "You didn't ask me how I knew your name did you?" he asks darkly Ava shakes her head chills run through her back
