Hidden

Chapter 25

"So you remember me," Dan smirked as he stared at Achara.

"Dan, I warn you. Leave Kong alone." Achara glared.

Dan laughed, "Oh! I'm soo scared!"

"Mom..." Kongpob breathed, worried to even make a slight movement as he could see the knife that Dan was holding against his neck.

"Aw, so this is your mom. The traitor who betrayed your own mother! How could you do this Kongpob!?" Dan pressed his elbow tightly around Kongpob's neck making him choke. 

"Dan! Please...don't hurt him!" Achara could feel herself getting weak on her knees, but she held it up. It wasn't the time to breakdown.

"Wow! P'Achara is begging me! I can die peacefully now!" Dan let out a sarcastic laugh.

"Why are you doing this?" Kongpob whispered, his hand over Dan's arm on his neck.

Dan turned to look down at his nephew, "Why? You ask me why?"

"Dan-" Achara tried to walk forward but Dan pointed the knife at her.

"Stay there!" Dan glared at her.

Dan turned towards Kongpob and kicked his stomach, Kongpob coughed, he heard Achara shouting his name.

Dan knelt and took Kongpob's face in his palm.

"You and your lover destroyed my whole empire! Do you think you could just give me in the hands of laws!? You're wrong my boy." Dan smirked.

Dan turned to face Achara, "Arthit has one weakness. It's his parents and you." Dan pointed at Kongpob.

"No! Please! Nàa! Please don't do this to me!" Kongpob begged, the only thing he didn't want was to be used as Arthit's weakness.

"What do you want Dan? I'll give you anything, just leave Kong and my son alone." Achara bit her lips.

"Give me the pistol." Dan reached his hand out.

Achara gulped. She looked at Kongpob who was shaking his head. Achara walked forward and placed the pistol on his hand.

"Good girl." Dan pocketed the pistol and turned towards Kongpob. He made him stand up and wrapped his arm around the younger's neck, holding him in place.

"Where's Sam?"

Kongpob's eyes widened. He gulped, looking at Achara who stared back at him with fear, he shook his head.

"He-he's not here." Kongpob lied earning a punch on his face from Dan.

"Don't lie! I know he's here!" Dan shouted.

"I'm saying the truth! He's not here!" Kongpob tried to state his ground.

Dan was about to shout when he heard a car's horn.

"Seems like we have more guests," Dan smirked.

"Please, leave him alone. Don't hurt him." Achara pleaded when she saw Dan place the knife on Kongpob's neck again.

"Kong! Mom!"

Achara and Kongpob  turned their gazes towards the entrance. Kongpob could feel the tears on the corner of his eyes when he saw Arthit's panicked expression.

"Kong..." Arthit's steps halted when he saw the scene in front of him.

"Nice to meet you Arthit." Dan smiled wickedly, "Oh! Hi P'Chaow!"

Choaw who rushed behind Arthit was stunned when be saw what was happening in his house.

"Dan, leave Kong alone!" Arthit glared at him.
