Chapter 354 - Something Is Fishy...

Meanwhile, in Florida ... Ashley was worried because Tanaga was not answering his phone. She's afraid that something terrible has happened to him, and she needs to be sure. She also asked grandma Hanada to make a call to Tanaga, but the same thing happened ... He also didn't answer.

"Grandma, what are we going to do ... W-what if something bad has happened, and we don't know anything." Ashley starts sobbing out of concern for her husband. 

She could not understand why her chest was thumping so hard. Usually, Tanaga will call back immediately whenever he missed her call. However, it has been more than thirty minutes, and he has not called back? Ashley could not keep still, and she kept walking back and forth while in deep thought.

"Child, can you please sit down. You're making me dizzy with you pacing like that." Grandma Hanada banters. However, inwardly she felt the same way. She worries that something terrible might have happened to her grandson.

Moments later, Ashley suddenly stopped pacing back and forth. A thought suddenly hit her. And there's another way to find out what's going on with her husband. 

Brother Tiny can call Tanaga's bodyguard and find out what's going on, why he can't answer the phone.

Ashley is in a hurry to go to Tiny.

"Brother Tiny! Brother Tiny! I need your help!" Ashley shouted as she approached the house in the back where Tiny lived...

When Tiny heard Ashley loudly calling, he quickly ran out of the house to discover what his female boss needed. 

Fely, Jessie, and butler Ruffy also heard Ashley's loudly calling for Tiny, and promptly stopped their Two-hits game. [Tong-it] and hurriedly met the hysterical Ashley.

The four almost stumbled and could no longer put on their slippers. With everyone's with wide eyes, they simultaneously asked Ashley why she was screaming from the top of her lung.

"Ma'am, is everything alright? You called for me?" Tiny quickly asked, still trying to put on a T-shirt because he was exercising when he heard Ashley's call.

"Yes, dear! Why are you out of your mind shouting like crazy looking for Tiny here? We feel scared half to death. We thought that the house was on fire!" Fely said while you could see the concern on her face.

Ruffy and Jessie, on the other hand, did not ask to find out why Ashley shouted like that while calling Tiny?

"I'm sorry, it's just an emergency because I can't contact Tanaga. Grandma Hanada also tried, but it's the same, and he didn't answer. That's why I called brother Tiny to call his bodyguard. I just want to make sure he is okay and has no problems. "Ashley explained as she was still catching her breath.

Fely sighed as Jessie approached his youngest child and put his arm around her. "All right, alright!... Calm down ... I'm sure nothing terrible happened to your husband. Hahaha! Who knows, he could be in the bathroom and forgot the phone. Maybe he was doing number 2 or taking a bath ... So don't worry, okay. " Jessie was doing his best to give comforting words.

"I hope so, Dad, I don't think I can handle it if something bad will happen to him," Ashley said to her father as she started to cry.

As Jessie comfort and advised Ashley, Tiny quickly went back inside to pick up his cellphone. As he walked, he dialed his second in command, which is supposed to be with Tanaga. After a while, his second in command answered. 

"Boss, what's up! Who do I owe this pleasure to receive a call from you?" Banters Raul. Tiny's second in command bewildered as he waited for his reply.

"Yes, are you with sir Jones right now?" Tiny asked as he walked closer to where Ashley, Fely, Jessie, and Ruffy were. The speaker on Tiny's phone was on so they could hear the answer.

"I'm sorry, sir... It's my Day off today, and there are two temporary bodyguards from the agency that's guarding him right now. Since we will be going home later, I decided to go out and buy souvenirs. Why did something happen?" Raul asked thoughtfully.

"Shit! You mean only two temporary bodyguards are with bossing? Where are you now? Are you at the hotel? You need to check what is happening to the boss because he is not answering the call." Tiny explained as he looked at Ashley, who heard Raul's answer.

Tiny was about to say more when Ashley suddenly snatched the phone, and she repeated Tiny's question.

"Raul, can you go to your sir Jones. No matter where you are now, please ... Go to him, and I am nervous." Ashley commanded, crying as her voice growled.

"M-ma'am... Don't cry. I'm sure nothing terrible happened to sir Jones. Don't worry, and I'm already in the hotel lobby. Now I will go up and make sure that boss is okay. All right, I'll tell the boss to call you. "At the same time, Raul quickly hung up and did not wait for Ashley's answer.

Raul hurries to get to the penthouse to make sure their boss is in good condition. He knows that if anything ever happens to his charge, Tiny would have his head on the platter and serve it to Chairwoman Hanada, who will be his doomed. He made the sign of the cross before praying wholeheartedly that nothing terrible happens to Tanaga.

A short time later, Tanaga's private elevator arrived, and when it opened, Raul first checked to see if the two bodyguards were standing at the door. When he saw that the two were standing and seemed to be talking ... He took a deep breath then let out a big sigh...

When the two bodyguards saw Raul coming, they swiftly stood like statues on either side of the door. He was still far away when they bowed down to greet him.

"Good afternoon, sir!" The two said together.

"Good afternoon, to you too! Anything suspicious while I was away?" Raul asked as he was ready to enter the penthouse to talk to Tanaga. Raul was shocked when the two of them suddenly stopped him ...

"I'm sorry, sir! Sir Jones instructed me not to disturb him. He said he needed to rest before leaving for America." One of the bodyguards said while his face was solemn.

"What? What do you mean, sir Jones doesn't want to be disturbed? This is the first time I heard of this; let me get through." Raul snarled while the two were still blocking him and would not let him enter the room.

"I'm sorry, sir! But that's sir Jones' order. Not unless the hotel is on fire or the world is collapsing, don't bother him. We are only following his order." Another bodyguard explained as he looked straight at Raul and was ready to fight him just in case.

He contemplated if he should give Tanaga a call or listen to the two bodyguards and leave him to be so he could rest. The latter won and since they wouldn't let him enter... There was nothing he could do but to turn around and pretend to leave. He knows that the two are elite bodyguards because he himself chosen them, and they used to be mercenaries.

However, as he walks towards his room, he got into thinking of the situation and was preparing to call Tiny back to let him know of his hunch...

"Something is going in there that I'm not sure of. I need to find a way to get in and make sure nothing terrible happens to sir Jones. But I can't reveal it to these two. They seem to be with whoever is inside the penthouse." Raul mumbles to himself as he entered the elevator.
