He turned to me in that moment and tilted my chin to face his evil grin.

"it seems you both are really fated, because he's reached out to me before I could contact him.....He wants to speak to you?"

An unwilling cry escaped my mouth when his grip on my chin turned painful.

"you heard that boy?She's alright now, but won't be soon"

He pressed the end call button and stared at me with a hardened expression

"I wished it didn't have to end this way between us daughter "

He let's go of me and straightened to full height.

I watched him turned off the lights and left leaving me once again in complete darkness.

Chapter THIRTY EIGHT

Fuck!

The call ended.I crashed the cellphone to the nearest wall in a fit of rage.

The fucking bastard must have hurted her, her cry of pain over the phone echoed in my head.

The CCTV footage showed Matteo lurking around the mall.

I paced about restlessly like a caged tiger, words couldn't explain how I felt at this moment in time.

Sebastian spared me a glance but didn't say a word.

This matter was not just a simple case of me saving Gracie from a kidnapping, most especially since dad has gotten involved.

I guess we all want Matteo, but I wanted Gracie more...The thought of her being in that bastard Matteo hands made my fists clenched tightly.

She had deceived me only to get caught by him, she probably didn't know the difference between him and her uncle.

She should never have left me.Big mistake on her part, especially when she knew danger was lurking around

I guess her desire to leave me...to escape me beat whatever danger she thought was out there.

I tried to push back the sour taste of hurt, but it still pricked my insides like a thousand needles.

I just had to get her back first.

I stopped pacing and turned to Sebastian

"Why isn't there fucking any news yet!"

Matteo had said he was going to send me the time and location before he had abruptly ended the call, But we've already got our men tracking him down but we haven't gotten any news until now.

"You've got to get your shits together "

"He still has her hostage I can't fucking calm down!" I breathed out in harsh pants .
