CHAPTER 84: THE CULPRIT

"Why did you buy this bracelets?" Charlie asked.

"This is a couples bracelet and it was said that any couple who wears this bracelets will be forever" Eve said.

Charlie chuckled and said "are you sure that story is true? Okay go on and rest now" Charlie said tucking her into the bed.

At the resort....

In Natasha's room....

Natasha has been calling Roberto's number but it was not connecting and it getting her frustrated.

"Why haven't I been able to contact Roberto? Is it that the plan was not successful and he has been caught? No... No that can't be true" Natasha murmuring and shaking her head sideways while she continue dialing the number. 

After minutes of unsuccessful attempts she gave up and a thought flashed through her mind, "well even though he is caught he won't dare to involve or talk less of mentioning his name" Natasha said, "And Incase this plan doesn't work I need to formulate another solid plan that is guaranteed to work" Natasha said smirking.

~~~~~~~~~

Charlie's secret chamber....

The torture room.....

"Who sent you to kidnap our boss's wife!?" Ken shouted while signaling his men to continue torturing Roberto and his minions.

"Haven't they said who sent them yet?" Ken and the other bodyguards turn to see their boss Charlie walking towards them with his two hands in both side pockets of his pants and they all immediately bowed their head and greeted him in unison.

"Good morning boss!" All of them said together.

The atmosphere in the torturing room became very cold due to Charlie's mood which tells the bodyguards that their boss is really angry and they know that their boss might not spare the set of people tied up in front of them.

Charlie sits down on the chair and pulls out a knife that looks like that of a soldier and it is very sharp. This made the prisoners shiver. They were scared because they know what Charles Powell is capable of whenever he is angry.

"Please... We are very sorry, we didn't know that the lady was your wife. We just did what we were ordered to do, that's all" one of the prisoners said while crying.

"Shut up! Didn't I say we aren't supposed to tell anyone" Roberto shouted at the one who said that cautioning him.

"Isn't supposed to tell anyone?" Charlie said smirking while looking at Roberto.

"I... I.. I am sorry but we can't tell you who sent us" Roberto said shaking and stammering.

"Really?" Charlie said and his anger can be sensed and seen on his eyes.

"Ye..yes" Roberto said not sure what charlie would do to them but he was sure they might not be able to get out of there alive.

Charlie signaled ken to give him his gun and ken immediately gave him his gun. Charlie collected the gun and looked at Roberto again.

"You won't tell me who sent you?" Charlie asked.

"Y...es" Roberto said.

Immediately Charlie heard his answer he shot one of his men on his head and he died immediately.

"Ha!" Roberto and his minions shouted with fear written on their face.

"If you don't say reveal the person who sent you by tomorrow morning just consider yourself dead" Charlie said as he stood up and was about to leave the room when he was stopped.

"But if you kill us you won't be able to find out who sent us" Roberto said thinking that as far as Charlie wanted something information from them he won't be able to kill them so he wants to buy time for him and his men before they find out a way to escape this place but what he doesn't know was that anyone who enters the torture room as a prisoner will not make it out alive.

Charlie stopped and turns to look at Roberto and said, "don't think I won't kil you of you don't tell me who sent you to kidnap my wife, I have other ways to find out so don't even hope I will not kill you" he said and left leaving Roberto bewildered with what he said.

"I need to find a way out immediately" Roberto thought.

Ken left with Charlie. Charlie stopped in the narrow pathway and said, make sure they talk morning if not kill them all and abandon their body in a bush."

"Yes boss" ken said and escorted Charlie out of the secret chamber.

Eve hospital room.....

Eve was playing a game on her phone when she heard the door to her room open and she lifts her head and sees Charlie entering with a bag in his hands and becomes curious about it's content.

"What is that?" Eve asked.

"Food" Charlie said and Eve face lights up while dropping her phone on the bed. Charlie begins to laugh.

"Are you that excited to see food?" Charlie asked in - between his laughs.

Eve pouted and said, "of course! I am really bored which is making me feel more hungrier than I am" she said stretching out her hands to collect the food from Charlie's hand.

Charlie sits on the bed and puts the mini table on the bed with Eve's leg in - between the legs of the table.

Charlie begins the foods and place them on the mini table on the bed.

"Wow! This are all my favorite dishes" Eve said with her eyes sparkling looking at the dishes in front of her.

"You like them?" Charlie asked.

"Mhm" Eve hummed nodding her head repeatedly like a child given gift on a christmas morning.

Charlie is pleased to see Eve's reaction and laughed.

"Okay go on eat" Charlie said.

"Mhm" Eve hummed and was about to eat before she remembered something.

"Charlie? I want to tell you something" Eve called.

"Hmm? Go on" Charlie hummed.

"It's about my kidnapping" Eve said tangling her fingers together.

Charlie immediately looked up at Eve.

"Well I don't know if it would be useful to you but I think I heard the men that kidnapped me say that the person who sent them is Natasha" Eve said.

Immediately Charlie heard Natasha's name his mood changed and the temperature inside the room was brought down to zero.

"Charlie?" Eve called him.

"Don't worry eat I will be back" Charlie said, he stood up and leaves the room.

Outside the room Charlie called ken and said, "kill them" and heads to his company.

~~~~~~~~

JK corporation....

Charlie's office....

"Come to my office now" Charlie said to Dan his secretary through the intercom.

"Okay sir" Dan said and immediately leaves his office and heads to Charlie's office.

Few minutes later Charlie heard a knock on the door.

"Come in" Charlie said and he sees Dan opening the door and entering inside and stood in front of him.

"What do you want me to do for you, sir?" Dan asked.

"Make sure the Holmes cooperation goes bankrupt before the end of today" Charlie said and faces the french window in his office looking at the city.

"Okay sir" Dan said bowed down his head and leaves the office.

~~~~~~~~~

Holmes company.....

Mr Holmes office....

Mr Holmes was working on signing the documents on his desk when his secretary ran into his office without knocking.

"Can't you knock before coming in?" Mr John frowns his face as he was angry at his secretary.

"Sorry sir but the situation on ground is rather urgent" his secretary said.

"What is it?" John asked.

"Our investors are pulling out their investments and the company shares are falling at a speed rate and am afraid that by the end of today the shares would have no value and that would make the company go bankrupt" the secretary said.

"What how did that happen?" John shouted.

"I don't know sir" the secretary said.

John is in a daze when he was pulled out by his phone ringing. He picks it up and sees the caller ID to be Charles Powell and he answers it.

"Hello" John said.

"Make sure your daughter doesn't try anything stupid towards my wife or else I will make you and your family experience worse then you all are now" Charlie said and hung up.

"..." The call was disconnected even before he could say anything. John was beyond mad and he said to his secretary, "send someone to Hawaii and make sure my daughter is dragged back by tonight."

"Okay sir" his secretary said bowing his head and leaves the house.

~~~~~~~

Holmes mansion.....

John didn't even change his cloth and shouted, "Natasha!".

"Hey dad, welcome" Natasha said.

"What did you do to Charlie's wife?" John questioned Natasha with an anger.
