CHAPTER 736: Mourn for him

"I think Ram is in danger."

A moment of silence followed Dominic's remarks as Heaven furrowed her brows. She slowly put down the glass of whiskey, her eyes still on him.

"Why do you say so?" she asked, only to see him shrug.

"I'm not sure about it, but Wolf called me today. He was asking me about Ram, telling me he hadn't heard from him for quite some time," Dominic explained coolly. "I haven't heard from Ram as well. He was supposed to attend the anniversary, but then told me something came up. That's the last time I heard from him."

"And you're guessing he's in danger because he's now missing in action? Darling, Ram is quite busy. He's the president of a country."

"I know, but considering Dragon is in the picture, it's not impossible. You said it yourself. Your formidable enemies in the past didn't target you first. They chose the patient fight, targeting your limbs to incapacitate you," he explained in a knowing tone. "Even though Ram is a president and his security is tight, I think you, of all people, should know Dragon isn't to be underestimated."

Dominic took a momentary pause as he lowered his head while lifting his eyes. "If you are Dragon, don't you think taking down a president of a country and taking control over that country is quite tempting?"

Another moment of silence weighed on their shoulders as the two stared at each other. Her lips parted as she sighed, taking the glass of whiskey and drinking it in one go.

"Hah!" Heaven slammed the bottom of the glass on the table. "He won't kill him."

"Why? Because you were once former comrades?" Dominic arched a brow as he guided the glass of whiskey to his lips. "You picked him up from the mud, Hera. And yet, he killed you – possibly faked your death or exhumed your body to preserve it because of a twisted and sickening reason."

Heaven ran her tongue across her inner cheek, watching her husband take a sip. "I know that, but Dragon won't just kill people. He's not the type. If he still sees a person's value, he'll keep that person alive until they are no longer useful. That's why I'm saying even if he abducted Ram or kept him captive, he wouldn't kill him just yet. Ram is the president of the country, and do you know why I placed him in that country?"

"Because the neighboring country, or rather, it borders a lawless land where no government governs it?" Dominic guessed, already aware of the geographical conflict in each country. Even if he didn't run for any government position, he was already knowledgeable about it.

"Exactly." Hera nodded. "It won't be a surprise if Dragon had his eyes on this lawless land to conduct his operations."

"I thought that land is where you used to operate?"

"Nope." Heaven shook her head. "I was interested in it not because it's lawless, but rather because many of my enemies took an interest in that land. They all wanted to rule it."

"So... are you saying you're going to do nothing?" Dominic poured himself another glass and then filled her glass as well. "Aren't you worried about Ram?"

"My agreement with Ram is that I won't meddle with his business. All he needs to do is give me regular updates on the lawless land." She leaned forward to grab the glass and casually mentioned her willingness to protect his country from gangs and mafias. "Other than that, we're on our own."

"Are you abandoning him?"

"No." Heaven snapped her eyes up. "All I'm saying is that Ram will manage, Dom. Dragon isn't the first enemy who targeted him, and this isn't the first time our lives were put on the line. It's already a part of our lives, which we all accepted long ago."
