And at the end of Hendra's sentence, a punch flew towards him, it came from Kevin.
But unfortunately, Kevin's perfectly clenched fist was successfully stopped by Hendra.
Brian was furious.
"AN OLD MAN LIKE YOU DARE AGAINST ME?" Brian raised one of his hands, and soon several people dressed in black approached him.
"Finish him and search her. Take the woman out," Brian ordered.
"Yes sir," replied the bodyguards in unison.
Hearing this, Hendra put on a wary attitude. For a moment the shady look on his face disappeared, replaced with a very sharp gaze.
He hit hard on Kevin's hand which was in his grip, then Hendra took a few steps back.
Immediately several people lunged at him from both directions, trying to grab his arm while throwing punches and kicks. Who initially thought they would overthrow that middle-aged man, suddenly hesitated, because Hendra quickly blocked their attacks one by one and even managed to do attacks and counter blows, hitting their vital points.
In just an instant, several black-clothed men were successfully repulsed. However, that does not mean they gave up.
Brian, who was still standing in his position, didn't budge a bit. His eyes then scanned the surroundings, signaling the few remaining men to enter the house immediately.
"Kevin, just leave them alone and open the door," Brian pleaded to the man next to him.
"Okay, sir," Kevin said nodding firmly, and then walked towards the door of the house, followed by several people.
But only a few minutes, the man walked back to Brian. "Sorry…"
"Can't open huh?" Brian cut in quickly as if he knew what Kevin was going to say next.
The one being spoken to nodded, "That's right, sir."
"Then find another way," said Brian.
Brian's people are now leading Hendra away from there, and here they are now, in the yard not far from the garage.
While Deden, the middle-aged man approached quietly towards the main door, hiding behind a bonsai plant with a very careful movement. Now and then his focus was on Hendra who was still fighting. His gaze was so sharp, he saw a row of parked cars with an eagle logo on each car.
Dean's brows furrowed, as if to confirm what he saw, he drew closer, and only stopped when he was already a few meters away from the four-wheeled vehicles.
"The Javier family crest?" he muttered as the wrinkles on his face became clearer, turning towards where Hendra was, a harsh sigh could be heard escaping his lips.
"What is that family doing in this country?" he added, his current way of speaking did not at all describe his job as a gardener, nor did he seem to be the person Miss Byanca had snapped at a moment ago.
Reached into his trouser pocket and took out a flat-shaped object from there, it appeared in one of his hands a circular ring that was the same as Hendra's. Looking for Mr. Devan's contact, intending to tell the man the current situation.
It's just that after a long connected knock, there was no answer at all from Mr. Devan, even so, Deden didn't even intend to stop contacting the man.
Only on the third call, someone finally picks up the phone, and at that moment Deden breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hello, sir," Deden greeted in a slightly suppressed voice.
"Hello. What's wrong?"
"Where are you now, Sir?" asked Deden.
"What? Is Byanca home?" Instead of answering, Devan threw another question.
"Yes sir, Miss Byanca has been at home for a long time."
"But that's not the case, sir," added Deden again.
"What do you mean?"
"Javier's men are at home, sir."
"Javier?" Devan's tone suddenly turned cold and flat.
"Yes sir."
"Do you know what the problem is?"
"If I'm not mistaken, they want Miss Anna, sir," replied Deden, occasionally darting his eyes around to check his surroundings.
Silence, no sound was heard from the other side, making Deden check his cellphone screen thinking that the connection was lost but in fact, it wasn't.
"Mr. Devan?"
Tut
The connection was disconnected, Devan turned off his cellphone unilaterally making Deden sigh again harshly.
While on the other hand, after turning off the phone, Devan hit the gas, faster than before. He is currently on his way home.
FLASHBACK ON
A few minutes ago.
Devan didn't slow down a bit until the four-wheeled vehicle entered the mansion which is the residence of the Atmadja family.
Stopping the car in front of the door, Devan immediately walked in without heeding the welcome from the maids.
"Where's my mother?" Asked Devan suddenly stopping his steps, turning to face a Maid who was still bowing.
"Keep your head up," Devan said.
"Your mother is on the third floor Sir, relaxing with the others."
Hearing this, Devan did not respond and immediately headed for the elevator, going up to the third floor.
"Mom… I've come," Devan said right after entering the small garden, where everyone seemed to gather while sipping tea and some other snacks, chatting and joking between one family and another. Yes, in the park there is grandma, her mother, Byanca's parents and also Leo's parents.
"Eh Devan, come here and join us," said Byanca's mother when she saw the man just standing at the entrance of the park. The atmosphere this afternoon is not too hot, a little cloudy and it adds to the perfection of the atmosphere in the park.
"Where's Byanca?" Seira asked looking around as if she was looking for someone.
"I came alone, Mom."
"Tell me why Mama called me here?" added Devan again.
"Eh? Come along?" Mrs. Seira looked confused.
"What's wrong Mom? Will I not be enough?"
"No, it's not like that. She asked me to persuade you to come here," Seira replied in a tone that sounded a little smaller than before.
Devan who heard his mother's words froze on the spot, the wrinkles on his face visible.
'That woman....' Devan thought growling.
Without saying a word, he immediately turned away and left a million questions on everyone's mind.
"Did something happen that I don't know about?" asked Grandma turning to Seira.
"Ah, no Mom, It's okay."
"But somehow I feel that Byanca and Devan are not like they used to be."
Hearing this, everyone was silent for a moment, slightly confirming. Yes, for a few days in Indonesia they also felt the same way, it's just that they chose to remain silent and didn't express it directly, afraid that someone might feel offended.
"What did you say? Never mind, You are old, maybe it's just Mama's feelings," said Seira, smiling, her eyes occasionally turned to the direction of Devan's departure. Deep in her heart, it would be a lie if she didn't feel it too.
While on the other hand, Devan quickened his pace towards the car, hitting the gas.. There was nothing else on the man's mind but Anna.
