Nathan went inside the house to get his car keys. He was in a hurry. As early as this morning, he heard a piece of bad news from Veronica.

Phantomflake\'s body disappeared. Someone took her body from the Medical Facility. How could this happen? The facility was heavily guarded. The CCTVs and security alarms should have sensed the intruders.

With a grim expression on his face, Nathan grabbed his coat and his keys, proceeding to the garage. Butler Li was following him behind.

That was the time Ethan and Abigail went downstairs. They saw Nathan and Butler Li running to the garage.

"Why are they in a hurry?" Little Ethan asked himself.

Abigail stood frozen in her spot as soon as she saw Nathan\'s back. She didn\'t know how she would face him. She still couldn\'t accept that he was her old friend.

\'Should I confront him or not? Will he still remember me? Fate is so cruel towards us. How can old friends turn out to be mortal enemies?\' Abigail\'s mind was still in shambles.

"Miss Abi, where do you think Dad is going at this hour? It is too early to go to the office. And he is still in his pajamas." Ethan approached Abigail and tugged her arm.

Abigail could only shake her head as she had no idea either. "Let\'s ask Butler Li."

Abigail and Little Ethan headed to the garage. They heard the screeching sound of the car. Nathan was speeding off as he left the mansion.

Butler Li just stood at the garage gate, watching Nathan\'s departing car. He had an anxious look on his face.

"Uncle Li!" Little Ethan called his attention.

"Young Master Ethan, Miss Abi, good morning!" Butler Li greeted them but he smiled awkwardly.

"Where is Nathan going? Is there an emergency?" Abigail asked him. Ethan also glanced at Butler Li expectantly.

Butler Li took a deep sigh and nodded his head. "An emergency happened in one of the Master\'s medical facilities."

Both Ethan and Abigail were taken aback for a moment. Just this morning... At dawn, Black Rose and Spade hacked the security system of the medical facility owned by Nathan. This emergency might be connected to that incident.

​ Abigail and Ethan exchanged glances with one another. They suddenly got worried. Did the enemies steal some pieces of important information from their database? Perhaps... it\'s confidential data that enemies might use against Nathan and his organization.

Without further ado, Ethan said goodbye to Abigail and Butler Li. He would check if the hacker was able to steal confidential information from the system\'s database.

"Uncle Li, Miss Abi... I\'m going upstairs to check something. See you around later." Ethan waved his hands and went back inside the house.

\'I should have informed my Dad right away about the hacking incidents this morning... Sigh. Did something big happen? Will Dad scold me if he finds out I hid the incident from him?\' Ethan mused to himself.

Abigail frowned as Cherry popped up in her mind. \'Maybe, Cherry has an idea what happened. I should ask her.\'

"Butler Li, have you seen Cherry?"

"Yes. She is in the kitchen, preparing breakfast for today."

Abigail just nodded her head and sprinted inside the house. For some unknown reason, she had a bad feeling about this. Nathan left the house in a flash. What made him so anxious and angry?

\'Wait... don\'t tell me... it has something to do with my body? Did anything happen to my body? But I didn\'t feel any discomfort at all.\' Abigail was trying to figure out what kind of emergency the medical facility was facing right now.

Abigail entered the kitchen and saw Cherry spacing out. Cherry was still wondering what happened about the rescue mission of the Red Dragon Mafia. Spade hadn\'t contacted her yet.

"Cherry, come with me!" Abigail pulled Cherry\'s hand as they headed towards the balcony. Abigail glanced from left to right, searching for a safe spot where the two of them could talk privately, not worrying about someone overhearing their conversation.

"Miss Abi? Is this about the hacking incident?" Cherry asked her anxiously.

Abigail bobbed her head. "Yes," She promptly responded. "Why did you hack the security server of the Syphiruz?"

Abigail was too frank that Cherry couldn\'t utter a word right away. She didn\'t know how she would respond. She didn\'t want Abigail to know her dark sides.

"Miss Abi... I\'m sorry but I can\'t tell you. I don\'t want you to get involved." Cherry looked down. She felt sorry for not being honest with Abigail completely.

Abigail just sighed helplessly. "Okay. I understand. But can you answer one question?"

"It depends upon the question itself... if I could answer it or not."

"Did you steal some data from them?" Abigail glanced at her intently, anticipating her answer.

"No. It\'s not data... but a person..." Cherry\'s tongue slipped out because of Abigail\'s intense gaze. She bit her lower lip and was about to explain but Abigail cut her off immediately.

"I didn\'t mean–"

"I got it! No need to explain..." Abigail could somehow connect the dots.

She turned around to leave, having complicated emotions on her face. She went to Ethan\'s room and used his other laptop.

"Ethan, may I borrow your extra laptop?" Ethan was typing something on his laptop. His three robotic friends– Star_S, Riemc, and Powy, were standing around him, silently watching him.

"Sure, Miss Abi."

Abigail began to search Spade\'s profile and the location of his IP address. She got this from Little Ethan this morning.

After a few minutes, Abigail discovered that Spade was a member of the Red Dragon Mafia. The IP Address came from one of their hideouts here in Country M.

Abigail\'s eyes widened at the realization. \'No way... Cherry... I mean Black Rose... I think... she asked help from the Red Dragon Mafia to find me? To find my body...\'

Abigail didn\'t know if this was a good thing or not. \'Wait... Don\'t tell me... they didn\'t steal any data but they took my body out of the medical facility?!\'

"Miss Abi! Come here... I will show you something."

Abigail, who was still shocked, turned to Ethan. She blinked her eyes when she saw the scene on the monitor screen of Ethan\'s laptop.

"Miss Abi. I opened my access to the live CCTV recordings of the Medical Facility. It seems like people there are panicking, including Aunt Veronica."

Abigail bobbed her head. She could also see it. "It is quite chaotic there..."

\'Damn! Another Mafia Organization took my body. Though I don\'t have animosity towards the Red Dragon Mafia, I am not at ease... knowing that they succeeded in getting my body out of Nathan\'s grasp.\'

\'Shit... I guess the Devil might run amok and will have a hard time calming down.\' For some unknown reason, she got worried about how Nathan would react.

"Ahem... Ethan, Is this alright? Are you going to spy on them?" Abigail asked Ethan. As far as she knew, Ethan had no idea about Nathan\'s connection with the Syphiruz Mafia. She wondered if Ethan knew that this medical facility belonged to a mafia organization.

"Miss Abi. This is my first time doing this. I am curious. Dad is heading here... am I right?"

She just nodded her head as a response. Abigail and Ethan continued to watch the live video coming from the CCTV. They were waiting for Nathan to arrive. They could tell that Nathan was heading to the facility.

******

Fifteen Minutes Later...

Nathan arrived at the medical facility with a chilly aura surrounding him. The guards and other staff couldn\'t look at him. They were afraid of Nathan.

His expression seemed like he was there to punish everyone. He had a sharp deathly look in his eyes. Nathan was walking with large strides, going to Phantomflake\'s ward.

Veronica and the other doctors in charge were already there. Everyone was very anxious, sweating profusely as they waited for Nathan\'s final judgment. He would certainly unleash his wrath today!

Bam!

The door of the ward flew open when Nathan pushed it hard. Veronica and others jolted in surprise. The head of security was also there. They were bowing their heads, unable to meet Nathan\'s bloodshot eyes.

They were trembling and sweating in fear. Nathan didn\'t say a word. The room was engulfed by a deafening and frightening silence.

The only thing they could hear was the fast beating of their hearts along with Nathan\'s heavy footsteps. He was tracing his steps toward the empty bed. Phantomflake\'s body was long gone.

Nathan\'s rage intensified after seeing that empty bed. He held the steel frame of the bed, gripping it tightly as he ground his teeth.

"WHO. TOOK. HER?!" Nathan\'s cold frightening voice sent chills down their spines.

No one spoke up. They were so afraid to utter a word.

"SPEAK!" Nathan\'s veins appeared on his forehead, neck, and knuckles, a sign of his raging fury.

"W-We... d-don\'t... know... S-Sir," the head of security replied, stuttering.

Thud!

CRASH!

Nathan grabbed, flipped, and threw the bed, venting out his frustrations. The nurses screamed from fear including Veronica. They could tell that Nathan was very mad. He was erupting like a volcano!

"FIND. HER! BRING HER BACK!" Nathan ordered them. He slammed his eyes shut and gritted his teeth. His lips and gum bled from gritting too much.

Nathan couldn\'t control his angry self. He wanted to throw everything there just to vent out his frustrations and anger. He had never imagined that someone would try to take Phantomflake\'s body.

\'Who dare challenge me?! I will destroy them!\'
