Go After My Ex-wife -
Chapter 1129 Found No One
The ferocity in his tone made her freeze for a moment, but she stared at Zorion as if nothing happened. Sometimes, people acted like Zorion, who would disregard everything when their families were threatened.
Raeleigh understood how Zorion felt, the burning, angry urge to see Deanna right away.
"Listen to me. It's useless even if you kill him. Now, it's time to find De..."
"Find Helma's whereabouts, ask clearly, and find a way to punish him. Look at his family. His sons and the daughters-in-law are here. He is already so old, and it's so embarrassing. There are so many of us against him, and he's no match for us."
Zorion held the knife in his hand and glared at Salman. "Where's Helma?"
Salman remained quiet. Santiago went over and grabbed the small child. Gasps rang out, and Salman's family became hysterical, with two women dropping to their knees, blubbering.
"Please, I beg you. If you want to kill someone, then kill him. The child is innocent." The two women started to sob, and their wails sounded particularly piercing in the silent night. Raeleigh could not bear it and helped them up. "Stand up. Get up first."
The child next to her burst into tears, which made her even more anxious.
The women on the ground cried stubbornly, refusing to stand up. Raeleigh could only stare at Zorion. "Say something."
He said after a while, "Ask him to tell us where Helma is now."
Raeleigh turned to Salman. "If you don't tell us, then your family will die."
Salman's chin wobbled, and he then fell to his knees with a loud thud. "I've lost her."
Zorion turned to him slowly, with his eyes flashing. "Are you still in denial amidst all this?" "No... It's not like that..."
Salman shook his head fiercely, explaining, "No, I'm really telling the truth. That day, I really paid 500, 000 dollars for that girl. I wanted to do it in the car later, so I made a move on her in the car. Who knew that she was uncooperative, so I parked the car in a quiet place and tried to force her. Unfortunately, her voice was too loud and even attracted surrounding gangsters."
Those people were going to turn my car over, and I got down without doing anything to her. After I got out of the car, they took away all my cash and some valuables. I thought that was it, but when they saw a woman in my car, they went in and took her away."
"If there is a lie in what I said, then I... I swear, I will die a tragic death."
Raeleigh stood aside and stared blankly, speechless. How could a man in his seventies still do such a thing? She did not know what to feel.
At that time, Salman suddenly stood up and stepped back to move closer to his youngest daughter. He pulled her over and shoved her to Zorion. "Look, this daughter of mine is beautiful. Isn't she pretty? I can give her to you."
The old man pushed his own daughter over. Zorion did not dodge, and she crashed into him, but then she immediately walked away. She took two steps back, stared at Zorion with his dark eyes, and then commented, "I'm not his daughter."
"You little b*tch..."
Salman slapped her right in the cheek, which was something Raeleigh did not expect. She leaned forward to support her and glowered at him. "Are you even human? How can you treat your own daughter like this? Even as an elderly, you're doing shameless things outside, yet you still dare to hurt your daughter. Aren't you ashamed?"
She felt as furious as a bull. Salman was nothing but trash.
Zorion snarled, "Where did you lose her?"
"Not far from the road behind the resort is that area," Salman answered immediately.
He paused, and then added, "I know I was wrong. I just want to... Ah!"
With a quick movement, Zorion stabbed his knife directly into Salman's crotch. He lifted the knife and drew it back, with crimson blood dripping from the blade.
Salman's family was so frightened that they cried out in alarm. Santiago flung the child onto the couch, while Zorion looked at Salman as he crouched on the floor. His eyes were wide open from the excruciating pain. "That way, you'll be able to rest in peace."
After saying that, Zorion glanced coldly at the girl in front of him. "Take her away."
Turning around, Zorion left, followed by Raeleigh and the others. After that, he sent his men to search nearby.
However, they found no one. Zorion was leaning against his car seat. It was a limo, and a few people sat next to him.
"Don't worry. Since she had been taken away, we can start with the gangsters nearby. You'll definitely find her," Raeleigh said. Meanwhile, Zorion raised his head, but he did not reply to her.
The car stopped by the beach, and Zorion got down. He stood alone in the dark while the wind was blowing on the beach. Raeleigh and the others simply watched.
Jepherson got out of the car in the back. In fact, Jepherson arrived earlier. He had been sitting in the back of the car, following them, but he never got out of his car. Getting off the vehicle, Jepherson fastened the buttons on his coat and walked forward.
At that time, only Zorion and Jepherson were standing on the beach. Zorion faced the sea and remained silent. His face was lifeless.
Jepherson stopped. He stood for a while with his arms crossed. "Your father should be informed about this."
Zorion did not answer. Both hands were clutched at his waist, his breathing a little heavy.
"Although Santiago and Cynthia are engaged, you should know that this is just a pawn in a game of chess. Once the victor emerges, their relationship will end." Jepherson analyzed, and he then kept his arms behind his back.
Zorion remained silent. He just kept his head down, and paced back and forth in the same place.
It was not until Jepherson said, "If something really happens, then I'll tell Santiago."
Zorion snorted and looked at him. "What do you want to do? Do you want me to die?"
Jepherson looked at him in return. "Then, what do you think we should do? If something really happened, then it'll be Deanna's life on the line."
Zorion turned his face and replied, "I can't do this. If we do that, then we'll only let Santiago down, and Santiago doesn't owe us anything."
The wind was still blowing. Raeleigh observed Jepherson and Zorion, who had been standing by the seaside for more than half an hour. She was a little anxious. Then, she urged Santiago, who was in front of her. "Santiago, let's go and find them. You have a solution. You must be able to find gangsters in the surrounding areas."
Santiago turned to look at her. "The people directly involved are not in a hurry, so why are you, a bystander, feeling nervous?"
Raeleigh pulled a long face. "Are you coming or not?"
Santiago got out of the car and went to another one. He opened the door and got in, while Raeleigh and Scarlette followed. There was no more space for Stuart, but he still had to look after Salman's daughter. Hence, he could not leave the car.
Although it was in the dead of the night, the sea breeze was blowing strongly. Neither Zorion nor Jepherson saw Raeleigh and the others leave until they were far away.
When they arrived at Waverly Village, Raeleigh and the others came down and started a search party in the middle of the night.
Raeleigh asked Scarlette, "This is a village. Have we left Capital City?"
Scarlette looked around and answered, "It should be. After we left the resort, we actually left the city. The place that we are looking for is a little remote."
"The most populated place is around this area. If we aren't in Waverly Village, then I would have thought that we're in a big city, wouldn't you? It's almost as bustling as Capital City."
"Raeleigh..." Suddenly, Scarlette deliberately dragged her voice. Raeleigh looked at her and asked, "What's up?"
"It's 3 o'clock in the morning. We haven't had anything for the whole day. You're pregnant, remember?" Raeleigh wouldn't have felt hungry if Scarlette hadn't said anything about it. Now that she reminded her, Raeleigh indeed felt a little hungry. However, a glance around indicated that there was nowhere they could've gone, let alone finding someplace to eat.
