Mr.Trillionaire and Miss Runaway Convict

Chapter Sixteen

Saira SwitzJefferson:

For the umpteenth time,I feel like I am in an action packed thriller movie,one worthy of casting Tom Cruise.

As if my life is any less exciting and draining.

Beside me,I have the tense trillionaire,clutching the wheel so hard that his veins pop out and just the way his muscles are wired shows there won't be any delay for action.

I scan my surroundings and see we are in the high road going so fast that I would miss the truck that has been following us subtly but I am a criminal after all.

''Is that truck yours?"

A moment of pause.

"Yes."

I wait because I want to hear more without asking and he answers my unsaid question.

"The arch of Hera."

My eyes widen,"No way."

"Saira you have hideouts in the most unpredictable places too,like inside Malaysia's twin tower,under the Big Ben on London and so many more.
This guy is also equally as powerful as you,maybe even more,who knows."

I refrain from giving a snarky comment like,"no one's as powerful as me."
because it's not that it's not true,it's not the right time to boast.
Not when Ethan is so agitated,that he might round up crashing the car and we both will be dead.

I whip my head towards him,"How do you know my hideouts?'

For the first time,or it seemed to me the first time,a smirk creeps up,'I am a good guesser"but then again it vanishes and it's like a dark cloud hovering over him.

I look straight at the road.
'You will find her.'

'How are you so sure?'

Looking straight ahead,I say,
'Because I am here for whatever it takes.'

For a moment the car stops,the trillionaire beside me leans his head back and takes a deep breath.

'I know.'

And just like that,the engine roars and the car starts.

    ______________________________

The car rumbles to a stop in front of the famous arch of Hera and I hear a groan.
Glancing at my right,I find the trillionaire  cradling his head with both his hands with an agonised expression.

'Ethan,everything alright there?'

He nods and looks at me,steadying himself and says,
'Do what I say.'

I frown,'No.You do your thing,I do mine.'

I hop out of the car and in a flash my arm is held tightly and his mouth is so close to my ear,that I can feel it.
'Saira,you do not understand. They're dangerous.'

I look at him like,okay,then,what am I?

He shakes his head,'Just stay close to me,we have to find her now.She must be scared.'

I jerk my head to the direction of the backdoor and he agrees,quite reluctantly.

Once we get in,Ethan takes the lead and I follow.
We pass cabin doors and hallways,auditoriums and corner rooms,yet the trillionaire gives no sign that he will stop soon.

I say nothing,sensing we are about to come close,seeing how security seems to have tightened up around us,yet they stay like statues,immobile.
That's how I gather Ethan is well acquainted with the guy who kidnapped that adorable niece of his.

I can't wait to get my hands on that bastard who kidnapped Rosie.

We end up in a long corridor with blood red carpet and golden curtains draping portraits of girls in gowns and boys in a tux.
All the girls have one thing in common.All their dresses have a slit and cleavage is spilling out.
Without meaning to sound offensive,these girls look exactly like prostitutes.

Ethan places his finger on the scanner and the two doors open symmetrically.

He runs into the room and I follow suit.
What meets my eyes is something that would be shocking to a normal go to person,but for us criminals,this is not an unusual sight.

A man on a chair with limbs binded tightly and blood gushing out from both of his legs.

I am confused,my concern for Rosie outgrows my arrogance,so to confirm my suspicion I speak,
'Has your niece reached home safely?'

Ethan looks at me and smirks,'I got the news halfway so don't blame me for coming here,I wanted to teach him a lesson.'

I nodded pleasantly, 'And I would love to volunteer.'

For the first time,I could see the great rich trillionaire and I having something more than just fights and disagreement.

Wow,did I really say that?
