Hide and Seek (The Yamaguchi Veiled Intentions) - Season 2

Chapter 53

Chapter 53

"Usap-usapan sa ngayon ang naganap sa prison hospital kagabi, lalo na sa biglang pagtangay sa isang kilalang lider ng isang organisasyon. Ayon sa mga ulat, isang malaking operasyon ang isinagawa upang makuha ang lider na kasalukuyang nasa comatose state." While we were having breakfast and Milo was giving Hiroki and me updates on what was happening in Japan, especially about Mr. Lim and Tamara, a news report came on the TV that caught our attention.

"Ang naturang lider ay kilala sa kanyang matagal nang impluwensya sa isang organisasyon na matagal nang nasasangkot sa iba't ibang ilegal na aktibidad. Ang kanyang pagkahuli at pagkakulong ay itinuturing na isang malaking tagumpay ng mga awtoridad. Subalit, dalawang taon na ang nakalipas nang matagpuang naghihingalo at nag-aagaw buhay sa naturang resthouse na pagmamay-ari ng isang sikat na pamilya." I stood up when I heard the news reports. Confusion immediately spread throughout the dining room as the news reporting continued.

"Ayon sa Colonel na namamahala sa seguridad ng ospital, ang pagdukot ay tila pinamunuan ng isang bagong lider na humalili sa dating lider ng organisasyon. Ang nasabing bagong lider ay pinaniniwalaang may layuning iligtas o gamitin ang comatose na lider para sa mga personal o pang-organisasyon na kadahilanan. Hanggang ngayon, palaisipan pa rin kung ano ang tunay na motibo sa likod ng biglaang pagtangay." Patuloy ng nagbabalita.

"Hindi ko maintindihan. Why is this on the news?"

"For sure, the government will not just let it slide."

"But why didn't they mention Lucia and Arnaldo's names?"

The news became the main topic of conversation among us, making us all confused. We were trying to understand what was happening and why certain details, like Lucia and Arnaldo's names, weren't mentioned if they wanted this to be on the news and watched by everyone.

"Don Timothy is using his power in the authorities, and he will make sure that Lucia Jones's name isn't mentioned, as the public would find out his connection to her," Hiroki spoke.

"But what is his purpose? Bakit kailangang ipabalita pa ito sa TV kung may koneksyon din naman siya sa gobyerno na hindi na dapat ilantad sa publiko?" Blaze asked.

"It's a message," I spoke, and clenched my jaw. "It's his message to us, to Berlin who's pretending to be the new leader of the Jones Cartel, especially now that Lucia Jones is with us. He won't stop until he finds you," I added, pointing directly at Berlin.

"You need to lay low for now, Berlin, especially since your face is now being used as Arnaldo Pangilinan." Boris advised, his tone serious.

"It may have been part of our plan from the start not to hide your face, but Dad will definitely make sure to hunt you down now, especially since he already saw your face on the CCTV inside Lucia Jones' room." Theron added.

"I don't care about the news, what matters to me is that Lucia Jones is already with us," I said, and smirked. "Don Timothy is surely going crazy trying to figure out where he can find his lover." We already confirmed that they have a relationship, which is why Don Timothy is still doing his best to protect her.

Now, I'm imagining how angry he is right now. I know he'll do everything to get Lucia Jones back, and I'm sure he'll use the authorities just to find her.

"What's our next move?" Camille asked which made me smirked.

"The underground market. That's our next move." I said, and I can't wait anymore for that to happen.

A week passed, but they still couldn't find where Berlin, who was pretending to be the new leader of the Jones Cartel. How could they find him when he's here, hiding with the Yamaguchi? But I know Don Timothy was eager to find Lucia Jones, his lover. What a sweet reunion that would be.
