Chapter 209 Shocking Discovery

Day Twenty Three...

~~*****~~

[ Red Dragon Mafia Branch Headquarters... ]

Spade and the Dragon Lord continued their conversation regarding Phantomflake and the rescue mission they would be conducting. Jack would lead this operation.

"How were you able to trace her?" The Dragon Lord asked Spade curiously. "Were you able to hack Syphiruz's security system?"

Spade shook his head and laughed. He had to admit that he still failed to hack Syphiruz's security system.

However Spade smiled confidently, scratching the tip of his nose. "Boss, sending Jack to Country F was a great choice. Because of that, we were able to trace Phantomflake's location."

The Dragon Lord was confused. Spade didn't give him a concrete answer. He wanted to know the details! "Can you elaborate further?"

"Boss, you are still impatient." Spade let out another chuckle.

"Okay. This is what happened..." Spade began to recollect the moment that led them to the discovery of Phantomflake's where about.

"When Jack monitored Nathan Sparks in Country F, he found out that he brought a coma patient there. Jack asked me to hack the hospital's file to find out who the coma patient was. Looking at the data, I didn't notice right away because they used a fake name."

"But after seeing the photo and CCTV records... I confirmed... that the coma patient was none other than... Phantomflake! Boss...! Did you already know... that Nathan Sparks has connections to the Syphiruz Mafia?" Spade confronted the Dragon Lord.

"Huh? What are you saying?!" The Dragon Lord became more confused.

"Syphiruz Mafia was holding Phantomflake captive... but how come Nathan Sparks was the one who brought Phantomflake in that prestigious hospital in Country F?" Spade started to speculate.

"This only meant... Nathan has connections with the Syphiruz Mafia." Spade was able to connect some dots.

The Dragon Lord fell silent for several seconds, trying to absorb his words. He already had his suspicions before but he didn't have enough proof.

"If Nathan Sparks is connected to the Syphiruz Mafia... the more reason I should bring that organization down!" The Dragon Lord mumbled with a hint of promise in his words.

Spade just bobbed his head in agreement. "The security system of the hospital is not that strong as compared to the security system of Syphiruz. I'm so lucky to find this shocking revelation." Spade heaved a sigh of relief.

"When Nathan Sparks returned to Country M, I tried to find and hack the footage in the airport. That's when I saw a special ambulance where the coma patient was transferred."

"For the whole night... I reviewed the CCTV footage on the streets and found out the last location where the ambulance stopped. It was a facility owned by the Syphiruz Mafia!"

A satisfied smile played across the Dragon Lord's face. Now, all they had to do was to get Phantomflake's body to form an alliance with Black Rose.

But he was glad to hear that Phantomflake was still in a coma. 'She deserves it.'

"Is there anything more significant you found out?" The Dragon Lord was now in a good mood. Targeting both Syphiruz and Nathan Sparks was his priority goal now.

"Yes... There's more, Big Boss!" Spade said excitedly.

"Tell me..." The Dragon Lord was now all ears on Spade.

"When Nathan Sparks was in Country F... he was with a woman... Upon investigating her background... I discovered that she was Abigail Scarlett... an actress." Spade opened a file and passed it to the Dragon Lord.

The Dragon Lord accepted the folder and flipped the pages. The document contained Abigail's profile and background.

The Dragon Lord frowned as soon as he saw Abigail's picture. "Don't tell me he already moved on... and he is dating an actress." The Dragon Lord couldn't believe it.

"I thought Monica was the love of his life..." he murmured, still wondering. "He doesn't deserve her." The Dragon Lord clenched his fists at that thought.

"One more thing, Dragon Lord!" Spade declared enthusiastically.

"What is it?"

"This actress was the one who chased after Jack in the airport! She has sharp eyes. Jack almost got caught because of her." He informed the Dragon Lord as he recalled Jack's story. He told him what happened at the airport.

"Can you look into this actress once more? I want to know how and when Nathan and this actress met!" The Dragon Lord ordered Spade. He thought Nathan already fell in love with another woman. He couldn't accept that Nathan was now moving on. Only two years had passed since her death.

"Yes, Boss. Just leave it to me." Spade said goodbye.

Then an idea popped up in his mind. If Nathan took everything away from him then he would also grab this opportunity to steal something from him.

Now, the Dragon Lord became interested in Abigail. He wondered what Nathan saw in that woman.

'Just you wait... Nathan Sparks. I will let you experience what I have experienced before. This is my revenge.' The Dragon Lord thought to himself, his eyes fixated on Abigail's photo. A mischievous smirk flashed on his face.

Spade just glanced at the Dragon Lord in puzzlement. He didn't know what his Big Boss was thinking. But one thing was for sure. His Boss was already cooking up something.

'I wonder what is the history between our Dragon Lord and Nathan Sparks... Why did our Big Boss have deep resentment towards Nathan Sparks? Sigh. My head is aching just thinking about it. I can't even ask him personally.' Spade could only sigh deeply. The Dragon Lord already motioned him to leave.

"See you around Boss." Spade turned around to leave. But his mind was still preoccupied with something. He was thinking about Nathan's connection to the Syphiruz Mafia. They didn't know yet that Nathan was the Supreme Leader of the Syphiruz Mafia.

When Spade left the Dragon Lord's office, he called another subordinate. He asked him to follow and monitor Nathan while Jack was still busy with his rescue mission. He would like to see how close Nathan was to Abigail Scarlett.

"I'm gonna meet you soon... Abigail Scarlett," the Dragon Lord uttered meaningfully.

[ At La Amanda Village... ]

Since Nathan took back his words, Abigail was no longer grounded for two weeks. Nathan allowed her to leave the mansion, but on one condition, Chantha should go with her always.

Abigail grabbed the chance to visit her assistant and manager. Ana and Santra were anticipating her arrival since they had a lot of catching up to do.

Abigail arrived at La Amanda Village together with Chantha. Abigail was still cautious of Chantha. She was not opening up to her, knowing that Nathan was the one who assigned this bodyguard to her.

Abigail was thinking that Chantha would serve as Nathan's ears and eyes when it came to her. She would try her best to maintain a low profile and not let Chantha suspect her.

Abigail already expected that everything she would do in the presence of Chantha would be reported to Nathan. However, Abigail had to admit that Chantha was very cool. She was so lively and full of energy. The only thing she didn't like about Chantha was that... she was obviously admiring Nathan and feeling close to him.

"Miss Abi! I missed you! When are you going to stay with us?" Santra hugged her tightly as soon as she entered the house. Ana was just watching them from behind. She had a gentle smile on her face.

"Don't worry about her. She is staying in a safe place." Chantha butted in. That was the time Ana and Santra noticed her presence.

"This is my lady bodyguard, Chantha... Chantha, I would like you to meet Ana, my manager, and Santra, my personal assistant." Abigail introduced the ladies to each other.

Santra: "Nice meeting you, Chantha!"

Ana: "Please protect our Abi!"

The two said at the same time. Chantha could only giggle and respond enthusiastically. Nathan gave her this task so she would fulfill it.

"By the way, Abi. Right timing! I already contacted the designer who will make your gown for the Star Gala. Let's go and meet her!" Ana grabbed Abigail's hand, pulling her towards the door. Chantha and Santra could only follow them from behind.

Ana and Santra gasped upon seeing the new car which Chantha and Abigail used today. It was one of Nathan's luxurious cars.

"Who gave you this gift?" Ana asked Abigail in amazement. She knew that Abigail wouldn't buy a car because she was thrifty so she figured out someone must have given her this as a gift.

Abigail shook her head frantically. "This is not mine nor a gift. Someone just let me borrow this. Chantha is the one driving it."

"Whoah! Did you find a rich and very generous sponsor?!" Santra almost jumped with joy.

"Ahem... he is rich... but not Generous!" Abigail responded.

"Oh my gosh! Don't tell me... the young boy who was here a few days ago... is your new sponsor? He looks like he came from a very influential, powerful, wealthy, and extraordinary family!" Santra said exasperatedly.

Chantha could only smile as she listened to their conversation. She secretly glanced at Abigail, anticipating her reply. She wondered if Abigail would boast and be arrogant since Nathan and Ethan were backing her up.

But to her surprise, Abigail didn't look happy at all. She had no plan of boasting about something she didn't own.

"The young boy is such an angel... but his father is a devil." Abigail blurted out without thinking.

Chantha: "..."

'Did she just call our Supreme Leader a devil? Did they fight again? I thought they already made up. Why does she look upset? Wait... perhaps... does she know that our leader is being called the Devil in the underground world?'
