"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.

"Okay, I'm also leaving soon," replied Devan. Hearing that, Claire immediately got up from her position.

"Honey, you just stay here. Let me go," said Devan while holding his future wife's shoulders.

"But…"

"Trust me. It would be better if you stayed here honey. It's not that I don't understand your feelings, I'm just afraid that something bad will happen later, honey."

"Javier Family are family who we cannot take lightly. They will do everything in their power to achieve their goals," Devan added.

Heard that. Claire pouted. The woman looked down sadly, to her, staying at home or joining the search for Dave was the same. The feeling of worry in her could not go away.

"I promise, I won't bother you," Claire muttered, her voice very small, but still able to reach Devan's ears.

The man sighed, paused for a moment then said again, "Okay."

Reflex Claire looked up, saw Devan then hugged him. "Thank you, Devan. Thank you," she said.

"Then let's go now," she added and grabbed Devan's arm, walking out of the room. And it managed to make Devan silent, at a loss for words, and just listen to Claire's words.

Before leaving his mother's residence, Devan contacted his father and the others first. He also asked about the condition of his grandmother 'Mrs. Raina'.

It had rained a few moments ago, it was marked by the asphalt of the road that looked still wet, not completely dry.

After traveling for several tens of minutes, they finally arrived at the hospital Leo had said before.

Devan knew that his son not being in the hospital. However, to find his son, he must first meet Javier, the middle-aged man who was the mastermind behind his son's abduction.

It turned out that Leo had arrived first. The man seemed to be waiting for his arrival.

"Come on, honey," Devan said to Claire just as he opened the door for her.

Claire nodded, took Devan's hand, and got out of the car.

Leo and Naila who saw that immediately approached them.

"Are you sure this is the right hospital?" Devan asked Leo.

"Right. I also confirmed Javier's name on the patient list before you came." Yes, what Leo said is true.

Devan nodded. He then turned to Claire.

"Honey, wait for me here with Naila. Let me and Leo come in, OK?" said Devan to the woman.

"Okay, I'll take care of Claire here. You guys come in," Naila said immediately, the girl then hugged Claire's arm. Making the woman have no other choice but to obey Devan's words.

"Good. I'll get some people to guard around here," Devan said, and Leo nodded in agreement.

After that, the two of them and a few people dressed in black started to move. Enter the elevator and head to the room where Mr. Javier is being treated.

Devan ordered several people who were with him to stop and guard in each corridor. Not only that, but he also asked them to look normal so as not to attract anyone's attention.

In the end, all that was left was Leo and Devan. The two men stepped unhesitatingly into the room where Mr. Javier was being cared for.

Checking the conditions around, the atmosphere is very quiet. Only the occasional nurse and doctor were seen passing by.

Without knocking on the door, Devan and Leo immediately entered Javier's room and locked the door from the inside.

The sudden action made Edrick, who had just been lying on the sofa, suddenly feel shocked. Reflexively he rose from his position.

"Hey... What are you doing? Why are you entering other people's rooms so casually?" Said Edrick, the man was angry and immediately approached Devan and Leo with clenched fists.

"Go out!" he snapped.

Without caring about anything, Devan immediately punched the man in front of him.

He did not give Edrick a chance to fight back.

Devan continued to beat the man until he was helpless. Bruises and blood filled his face.

"Devan, stop!" said Leo at last.

"You can kill him if you keep hitting him like that," Leo added, trying to stop his cousin's actions.

But what a shame. Devan doesn't care and keeps hitting Edrick relentlessly. Pushing his body violently against the wall and then strangling his neck made it difficult for him to breathe.

Even Edrick didn't have time to digest what happened and was already helpless like this.

"Wh-who are you, sir? W-why did you hit me?" Edrick stuttered, from his voice, anyone could tell that the man was trying so hard just to say those few words.

"You don't know me or you pretend you don't, Huh?"

"Tell me, where is my son?" asked Devan, his voice so firm, sharp and so domineering.

"Devan, let him go. He can't answer you if you strangle him like that," Leo said.

"I know you're very angry, but following your feelings won't solve the problem," Leo added again, trying to temper his cousin's anger. Right now they were in the hospital, he was worried that someone would find out what was going on in the room.

Devan immediately let go of his grip on Edrick's neck, and at the same time, the man coughed, his breath panting.

"Tell me where is my son, Damn it," Devan cursed.

"Or you'll never see your father again," he added, pointing to the gurney.

"Your son? Who is your son, sir? I don't understand all that you're saying," Edrick replied. But a few seconds after saying that, he was stunned, seemed to realize something.

"Do you think I will believe you? I will not hesitate to destroy your family. Do you think, we're in the hospital and I'd be afraid to do something bad to you?"

"Was the trouble caused by Black Jack yesterday still not enough, Huh? Looks like you guys didn't afraid anything," Devan added, looking like he wanted to kick Edrick who was sitting on the floor, but failed because Leo held him back.

"Calm yourself first, Devan," Leo said then pulled his cousin's arm back a few steps.

Although he did not understand what Devan said, Leo still tried to calm the man, he then approached Edrick.

"Is it true that you don't know who we are?" Leo asked, crouching down and leveling his position with Edrick.
