A clue

Ch- 38

"Done with the call?" Amy asked Eric.

"Get rid of these people from our base. I can't stand them already," Amy said rolling her eyes at them.

Eric laughed at her.

"Nanny mom, I will," he said with a laugh.

"I want to marry her," Eric added.

"No. She will be taken away by that foreign man. She looks beautiful and classy. If she is gifted, she will do our bidding from there and we can get more benefits," Amy said to him.

Eric didn't doubt her. He nodded his head at her.

"You are the best," he said as gentleness flowed through his eyes for her. One can tell she loves him and he loves her immensely. They both looked like real mothers and sons.

"Boss, working time," Amy reminded him with a smile.

"Amy! Stop calling me boss. You can call me Eric," he said with an offended expression.

"Okay okay. It's lunchtime already now. Let the men who had lunch keep a watch on these people till you finish your food," she said.

"But.." he tried to reason her.

"You are hurt. Need to take meds. After the assignment. Take some rest no more new assignments till you recover. And I am not taking no as my answer," she replied in a final voice.

He could only nod at her.

Luciana could say Eric was a good guy with how he interacted with Amy. But brash. Even though he almost kissed Luciana, that felt disgusting. This scene that happened in front of her changed her opinion of him a little. Just then her mind reminded her that even though Oscar loves his mother too much that he didn't hesitate to rape Luciana. They were all good boys in front of their moms or mom figures. Yes, he was good with Amy. Amy alone. And his change depends on her next steps. As for whether she was really being honest or not, she doesn't know. Right now her goal was to escape this place.

"Come with me," she said dragging him.

He nodded and went after her.

The men stood around them and guarded them like some rare diamonds that would be stolen at any time.

Oscar can say Amy was trying to buy as much time as she can.

"Ayyo, I forgot. You go into the dining hall, I will just come back," she said as she walked towards her room. Eric didn't think much and left.

She put the phone away secretly, took out a paper from her table, and went to the dining hall.

Amy saw Eric was seated already. She smiled at him and walked toward him.

"See, these papers are given to me by our men. You can review them after lunch. It was said they are important and urgent. After lunch and taking meds, you will review these as your first task," Amy said sternly like a mother checking her son's homework.

He nodded. Amy served the food and made him eat as she spoke this and that wasting time. She could only manage for an hour.

Then she made him review the papers and made him reply it.

On the other side….

Ella, Carl, Callum, Joe, and Evelynn were all tensed about their various about. Ella was the one who took the greatest burn from the events. Because the one who went missing was her son. Every guest left without any doubt. And it's been one night. And the morning was approaching.

"If anybody gets a single signal or any call from any new number get them traced," she ordered. She stood in the middle of ten ace hackers. They looked at her with a terrified look. But right now there was no time for them to be terrified. They tracked every message and signal and call from everyone's numbers from the time of Oscar's and Esther's disappearance.

Everyone was at their wit's end.

That's when Ella got a call from an unknown number.

"Trace my call!" Ella ordered before she lifted the call.
