Undisclosed bar.

A man with dark hair sits in the midst of older men wearing stuffy suits, obviously overdressed for the occasion.

"Let me get this straight,this girl isn't your daughter,your niece or anything?" He asks and the man in replacement of Felix rolls his eyes and scoffs.

"What my boss,your father,is trying to say is,she's his niece but her father is our main area of worry here. Get rid of the girl and her husband. That's all." He says and puffs at his cigar.

Josh rolls his eyes and looks at the picture handed to him. The girl seems nice. He thinks.

"How much do I get?" He asks.

"Your dad gets out of prison and no-one reports your shady business to the authorities." The man smirks at him and Josh internally curses.

"What about my sister?" He asks him with a quirked eyebrow.

"She gets to marry the Elron Yoshida or..she gets shipped off to Afghanistan to work as at an orphanage. It's your choice."

Josh grumbles and nods.

"Deal."

"Deal."

>°<>°< Present Day.

"How are you feeling?" I ask Noah who munches on his strawberry cutely. It's been a month since the surgery and we've been trying our possible best to get in touch with Claire but all efforts yeild futile.

"I'm okay,but the strawberry isn't sweet." He says and wipes a red smudge from his lips.

"Where's mommy?" He asks and I begin to panic.

"Um...she...she travelled." I tell him and he easily believes me.

"Well,I hope she didn't go with uncle Josh. That bad man." He says.

What?

"What do you mean?" I ask him.

"Um...uncle Josh and Aunt Edelle were the ones that took us away. They made me cry and they fed me some yucky foods." He says and cringes.

That bastard.

He knew about this all along yet he pretended to be on our side.

"What else do you remember?"

"Um...the place was dark and I remember being taken to some white car. Liam was also there." He says and pushes his try aside.

Speak of the devil.

The bastard walks in with a box of chocolates in his hand and smiles this smile that urks me.

"Hey, there's my big boy." He jokes and totally ignores my presence.
Noah begins to cry and Josh's demeanor shifts before returning to normal.

"No,don't touch me." He cries and I try to calm him down.

"Leave. Now." I command him.

"And what if I say no,he's also my son too you know?" He says.

What?

"Oh she didn't tell you?" He smirks evilly.

"Fucked her on our first date. So tight." He says and kisses two of his fingers.

It's not possible. He's lying. I know my Claire. She would never do that.

"Fuck you!" I yell and punch him in the jaw.

"First, you hurt my kids. Now you want to mess with me. Where is she? Where the fuck is she?!" I yell and deliver punches to his face.

"Stop it!" Liyah tells and tries to break us apart.

By the time she separates us,my fist is red and bruised and so is his face. I smile at myself for making such a beautiful masterpiece.

"Ha-ha. Messing me up won't do shit, Kensington. It'll just motivate me to fuck her up more. She's already like putty in my hands. Just this and she's messed up in the head forever." He says and snaps his fingers.

"Out,get out!" I yell and go back to hug my son.

"Get the kids out of the country. Take them somewhere like The US or China. Just get them out of here." I tell Liyah and she nods.

That sick bastard. He'll pay.

[°°]

The light entering the room is blinding and I have to blink the tears away to adjust.

A familiar figure emerges and I try not to cry in relief of a saviour.

"Josh. You-you found me." I croak.

He walks up to me with his boot crunching on the ground whenever he takes a step.

He places his finger on his lip and indicates for me to hush up.

I nod but when I think I've found my helper,he cocks a gun and aims it directly at my head.

"Do as I say,or you die!" He warns.
