Chapter 45

Zee pov

The first thing I do is get in contact with the PI guy to quickly sort through the copies my father gave me to track the devices used to connect Nhu's phone. With that, I drive to Nhu's apartment, hoping that I'm almost done with everything. I smile to myself. By tomorrow, we'll have the stalker's details and bring him down, than we'll talk to my dad's lawyers and Nhu would no longer be in my dad's record label. I let myself in and find Nhu getting out of the company car. He comes and hugs me. "How was your show? I couldn't watch it because I was busy." I say sounding apologetic. He smiles. "I know. It was amazing, actually." He says. "No one gave you trouble?" I ask, making his smile fade a little bit. "Not really, just paparazzi on the way." He says, taking his hoodie off. I hug him from the back and sniff his neck. "This will be over soon," I promise. He turns to look at me and kisses me. My phone rings. It's the PI guy. "Sorry, Nhu, I have to take this." I say, giving him a kiss on the cheek. "Hello?" I answer the phone. "I found the device details that have been contacting Nhu's number. It's active right now." He says. I check the time and it's around 9, which is strange because the company is locked by this time. The only people that have the keys are my dad, and maybe me if my dad didn't change the locks. "It's active right now?" I ask to confirm. "Yes, boss." He says. I hang up and immediately call Max. "Hey, man." He greets. I explain to him everything that just happened. "... So I'm going to the company right now." I say while putting on a jacket. Nhu looks at me weirdly. "Right now by yourself?" Max asks through the phone. I bet he has the same expression as Nhu. "Yes. We can't miss this opportunity." I say. "You know how to access the security cameras, right? Please do so in case he runs away." I tell Max. "it will take me about an hour to get to the warehouse man, let's do this in the morning. " max complains "we have to do it now please." I plea with him. He finally agrees and hangs up. I turn to Nhu. "I'll be back, OK?" He nods and kisses me. With that, I leave to go to my father's office.

I don't park too far from the building to avoid alerting the person inside. I walk to the door and notice it's slightly ajar. My father never cared much about security. He had motion sensors, cameras and all that, but he expected his men to guard the place. He said there was nothing to steal in the building. All the paperwork was digitized by the end of the day and any music record was saved on a cloud that only a few could access with the permission of two others. My heart was pounding like crazy as I got closer to the sound of typing. I grabbed a nearby vase just in case things went wrong. I quietly approached the dark figure sitting in front of a laptop, on the screen were pictures of Nhu and me from an hour ago when we got back to his apartment. I raised the vase to hit the guy on the head when suddenly I felt a blow to my head. I felt the world spinning as I got dizzy and fell to my knees, the vase in my hands dropped too and shattered into small sharp pieces. As my head hit the ground, I could smell a metallic scent, I knew I was bleeding, my eyes turned blurry and heavy before they closed themselves, I caught a glimpse of red high heels - Anna. I thought to myself as my ears started ringing and everything went dark..

"So I'm going to the company right now," he says while putting on a jacket. I give him a look. "Right now by yourself?" Max asks through the phone. What was he up to? "Yes. We can't miss this opportunity," he says. "You know how to access the security cameras, right? Please do so in case he runs away," he pleas with max for a bit before he hangs up. He turns to me. "I'll be back, OK?" I nod, and he kisses me. With that, he leaves to go to his father's office, leaving me stunned. I keep pacing up and down until I finally decide to call his phone. It rings the first time, but the second it goes straight to voicemail. Instead, I get a text from him.

"I can't talk rn. Meet me at the office. :)"

I find that weird because that's not how he texts me at all. I brush it off. Maybe he picked up that text style from me? I don't know, but I just put on my hoodie and head for his father's office. I start feeling uneasy for some reason. I call a cab, and on my way, I go.

As I arrive at the office, I see his car parked outside. I try calling him again because the office lights were off and it looked creepy. Again, voicemail. After a few minutes of biting my nails and stressing, I finally walk in. It's a huge building, and I don't even know where to start looking for him. "Hia?" I particularly squeak out, scared to say it too loud. I decide to use the stairs to go to the control room because I've heard Max and his talk about it many times, so he might be there. I slowly open the door. It's dark, but the few computers that are on light the room dimly. After a few steps, I stumble on some things. I look down and see Hia's unconscious body on the floor. I gasp, and with shaky hands, I lift him to check his breathing. "Hia, wake up," I try to say while crying. I shake him as he grunts and moans. He struggles to open his eyes, and when he finally does, they are blurry and unfocused.
I hear a woman's voice scream as she pushes me off him. It's Anna. She's holding an ice pack and putting it on Hia's head. "What did you do, Anna?" I ask in disbelief. I know Anna isn't well mentally, but hurting Hia is too far.

"It wasn't me," she says, crying. I push her away from Hia when he starts being more responsive. I don't like her touching him. "Hia, are you okay?" I ask, holding the ice pack for him. He clings to my hoodie, holding it tight.

Anna obviously does not like this. She holds both my arms so hard that her nails dig into my skin and tries to get me away from Hia. "Anna, stop," I plead. I'm on my knees with Hia in my arms, so I can't use any of my limbs to fight back. She has the advantage. Even though my hoodie it still hurt, a lot.

"Anna!" I hear a new voice—a male voice. She immediately lets me go, making me feel relieved. I don't pay her much mind as she goes to the guy. I'm too busy with Hia.

"Nhu," Hia grunts out his words, slurred and his face scrunched in pain. I try to secretly take out my phone to call the police, but I'm slapped so hard my face becomes hot and my head dizzy. My lip feels numb, but I can still taste the blood.

My head is pulled back by my hair, and I look up to see the person responsible for everything. I look at Anna as a silent plea for help. She shakes her head and looks away, rubbing her arm that looks bruised.
