Giovanni POV

Just like Kendra planned, we waited for George's call but it never came. The two days had elapsed but still, he didn't show up nor did he plan anything. I was almost tempted to call him but Melody asked me to wait time just passed by and I anticipated the worst. While anticipating George's call, I made sure everyone was heavily guarded by highly trained Ex-military men. If he were to attack any member of my family he wouldn't be able to get to them. On the fourth day, I came to the office to review some business proposals and that was when it happened.

In the middle of reviewing the proposals, I got a call from an unrestricted number. A number I have been expecting for days.

"Hello," I was quick to answer the phone.

"Giovanni!" I heard my mother trembling voice sounded over the phone.

"Mum," I couldn't believe that George allowed her to make the call. "Where are you mother? Tell me, I'll come to pick you up."

"George has gone mad Giovanni. Give him whatever he wants. "

"Where is he? How are you even making this call?" I inquired

"He left for something a while ago and he left his phone. Please son, just gives him whatever he wants."

"Where are you?" I asked.

"Erm, we are in an abandoned building around the land road."

"Stay there mother. I'll come to get you." I promised and ended the call.

As soon as the call ended, I put a call through to Lorenzo and Kendra informing them about George's location. Ten minutes after making the call, Lorenzo arrived first in my office followed by Kendra and Lara who arrived fifteen minutes after.

"You can't just go like a superman all because of a phone call. It could be a trap." Kendra pointed out.

"It's my mother we are talking about here. She could be in danger. " I reminded them.

"I understand you Giovanni but what Kendra is trying to say is that this could be a trap. " Lara added to what Kendra had said but I was having a hard time trusting their words. I just wanted to save my mother from the maniac man who had ruined our family.

"Please Lara, help dispatch some cops to the building. We can get my father. " I pleaded.

"I still think something is off about this," Kendra said but I didn't reply to her instead I turned to Lorenzo and gave him instructions.

"Make sure you and Dennis save mother while the police surround the building."

"Okay Giovanni," he answered back.

We all moved out of the office and entered into different cars. Dennis, Lorenzo, and I rode in my white Venza while Lara and Kendra took a different car. On our way down to the abandoned building, I was feeling anxious. I scratched the tip of my left thumb with my right thumb. I didn't know why I was doing that but I just had a weird feeling.
