Meanwhile...

"Who is this Ghitt Asher?" The unknown man who is tied down on the hospital bed looked up.

He was sure that this person in front of him is the person that shouldn't be pissed off. One wrong answer and he could lose everything, including his life.

Where is Kensington Strife? He should be the one asking this question!

The unknown man said to himself.

He struggled but the rope didn't budged.

"That is pointless young man. You know I am proud that a youngster like you, had the balls to give wrong information to Kensington." The man who is around his, 50's breath out the smoke from his cigar.

"I don't think that these two young man plotted all of these." The old man showed the young the pictures of two high school boys.

The young man's eyes widened.

"I'm pretty sure someone is behind this, yes?"

The young man kept his mouth shut.

"I know who you are already...Alden Villarosa." The old man said.

Alden Villarosa, kept his stoic face and stared at the old man.

"If you don't want to lose those boys, you will tell me who Ghitt Asher is, and the whereabouts of Rhegitt Strife."

The old man saw how Alden struggled to the hospital bed. He was grinning when he saw how helpless Alden is.

"Come on Alden, I know how you feel about those two. You treated them like your own brothers. A little bit of leak of information is all I want."

Alden glared at the old man, his jaw tightened. "Go to hell!" The old man's grin fade and his face turned into a cold stoic expression.

"Do everything to make him spill." The old man ordered his men. He heard how Alden groaned and grunts in pain. It was like music to his ears.

Suffering.

He smiled to himself and pulled the pictures of the two high school boys.

"It's time to hunt." He said and disappeared into the shadows of an old abandoned factory.

*Kensington Strife's residence*

Benjamin Williams, the most trusted man of Kensington Strife ran towards the gazebo where his boss was resting, carrying a phone.

"Lord Kensington." The former looked up to him and was surprised that Benjamin was smiling.

"About time!" He expected it was good news. So Benjamin handed the phone to him, Kensington saw his grandson smiling in the phone.

A video call?

Kensington was confused.

"Gramps! I found Rhegitt!" The first thing Rad told him and the old man sighed in relief.

"That's great Rad! Well done, my boy!" Kensington couldn't help but to smile at his grandson.

"Yeah! But I think you overdid it a little, and you broke her coffeeshop." Rad said which made him chortled.

"It was just a building. We could fix it right away."

Rad sighed and shook his head lightly.

"So when are you coming home?" He asked, and when he saw how unsure Rad's face is, his smile dropped.
