He had no idea. For what business the maid in the house contacted him at a time like this. Especially when it's still early in the morning.
Do they no longer want to work?
If he could, he might have fired the maid by now.
Feeling annoyed. Anger and worry-filled him.
Elsewhere, Devan and the others are still at Mr. Javier's residence. The man had no intention of moving away from there.
"Sir, madam, you'd better sit and wait for them to come," Ateez said to Devan and Claire.
Devan only glanced at him, then looked back at the maid he ordered to contact the Javier family.
"How? What did he say?" he asked.
"S-seems something happened to Mr. Javier, sir," replied the maid in fear.
"Do I care? I want them to come here and take my son."
"What did he say?" Claire asked.
"N-nothing, madam. Before the call off, I heard Mr. Edrick's voice panicking, sir," replied the maid.
Devan snorted disapprovingly.
"Call the others, I know that Javier still has two other sons. I don't want to know anything, I don't care about anything, no matter how I want them to bring my son," Devan said again giving orders.
Hearing that, the maid immediately nodded and obeyed Mr. Devan's request.
Until a few minutes passed, the result is the same. Neither Mr. Brian nor Mr. Edward, neither of them answered the call.
"S-sir…" the Maid stuttered.
"Mr. Brian and Mr. Edward are not answering my calls, sir," the maid added again, and that made Devan clench his fists again.
"Do they want to play with me?" growled Devan.
"Ateez..." Devan called to the middle-aged man.
"What is it, sir? Do you have an order?" asked Ateez immediately approached Devan.
"Check all the hospitals in this city, look for Javier's whereabouts," Devan ordered.
"I want the results tomorrow," he added then grabbed Claire's arm and walked away.
"Very well, Sir," Ateez replied as he bowed slowly.
Devan paused for a moment, then turned back to face Ateez. "You know what you have to do here, right?"
"I'll have a few people watch over this place, sir. I will give you any information at any time, sir, leave it all to me," Ateez replied still bowing.
Hearing that, Devan turned around and left without saying a word. Claire just followed him without asking. She was too tired to even make a sound.
Back in the car, the Ferrari sped away, leaving Javier's residence.
"Where are we going, Devan?" Claire asked, her voice weak and a little hoarse. Dark circles filled the corners of her eyes, it was clear that she was sleep-deprived.
"Home," said Devan curtly.
"But…"
"You need rest, honey. We're going home now. I don't want you to get sick. Don't refuse, just this once, I beg you to listen to me, honey," said Devan interrupting Claire's words.
Hearing that, Claire took a deep breath, "Okay," she said resignedly. She then leaned back in the car seat, trying to relax her body as much as possible.
While on the other hand. When Leo saw Devan's car, the man immediately walked to the middle of the road and stopped the car. His brow furrowed when he saw no other car besides Devan's.
'Did something happen?' he thought.
"Devan, open the door," Leo said as he knocked on the man's car window.
"You're getting in my way, Leo. Pullover, I want to go," Devan replied right after the man rolled down his car window.
"Where's Dave? He's okay, right?" Leo asked looking very impatient.
Devan shook his head, and that already answered his cousin's question.
"Then what's your plan? Tell me, I'm ready to do anything for you, Devan."
"You and Naila should go home and rest. It's almost morning," replied Devan.
"What do you mean? I can't go home if Dave hasn't been found."
"Leave everything to Mr. Ethan and Edgar. After all, Javier and his sons are not at home," said Devan.
Leo fell silent hearing that, "So what are you going to do now? Are you going back home?" Leo asked after a few seconds of silence.
"I also have to think about Claire's condition. I believe my son will be fine, I asked them to find out where Javier is. There's nothing I can do now other than this," Devan replied with a deep breath.
Hearing that, Leo looked at Claire for a moment.
"Okay, then you guys go. I'll stay here and help the others continue their search," Leo said.
"I'll call you right away if anything happens," he added.
"Thanks, Leo," Devan said then stepped on the gas again. Leaving Leo who is frozen on the spot.
"Is my hearing a problem?" Leo muttered rubbing his ears, this was the first time he'd heard Devan thank him.
"What is it? What happened to you?" said Naila approaching Leo.
The man just shook his head.
***
Devan drove Claire to his house. More precisely to Atmadja's residence. There was no one in the house, except the maids.
The man asked the maids to prepare breakfast and vitamins for his future wife.
"Get some rest, honey. I'll wake you up when breakfast is ready. I want to take a shower first," said Devan.
***
It was already nine in the morning, Devan and Claire had finished breakfast and showered. They both look neat.
Since earlier, Claire had been trying to sleep, but her efforts were unsuccessful. She kept thinking about her son.
Even at breakfast, if Devan didn't force her to eat, maybe she didn't eat anything.
"How? Has there been any news from Ateez?" Claire asked when she saw that Devan had finished talking to someone on the phone.
The man shook his head as he took a deep breath, "Not yet, honey."
At the same time, his cellphone rang again and made Devan immediately look at his cellphone screen.
It was a call from Leo, his cousin.
"Hello?" said Devan the first time.
"Devan, I just got word from Raymond. Just a moment ago when I finished talking to Uncle Naila, I asked Raymond to track down Javier and Edrick's whereabouts."
"Then? How is the result?"
"Right now they're in hospital X," Leo replied.
"I'm on my way there," he added.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
