SHE IS MY BROKEN ANGEL

FOLLOWING FRANCESCO

Arthur’s P.O.V.

I couldn’t believe what happened in the hospital. Keira left us again. Later we realized that she intentionally registered her presence in the room. After she left us on the roof, we all came back to Britanny’s room. It was Chris who questioned how did she enter the room when we all were present at the front gate all that time. Then we realized that there was something wrong in the room.

Later, we found that there was a big open shaft inside the washroom which was quite suspecting. We changed Britanny’s room and ordered the hospital authority to seal that room. Due to our line of work, we already had so many enemies and we knew that Drako was still behind us. Uncle Peter was shocked at first but then his eyes became watery. He was overwhelmed that Keira still loved her mother and worried for her mother’s health.

I again got a message through our servers about bidding going to be conducted at the outskirt of Boston. The message contained the nature of the bidding, the location, and the information about the gang that was going to conduct this bidding. I was sure that Italian Mafia Don, Francesco, who once saved Keira, Stacy, and Angel would also come in this bidding. My team was already keeping surveillance on the arrival and departure of the people from Boston, New York, Montreal, Philadelphia, and Brookline through every means of transport.

I alerted all my agents throughout the world to keep an eye on those mafia gangs whom I suspected that they would take part in the bidding. My agent from Italy told me that Francesco had already left the country. I wanted to meet him before the bidding because the bidding was not the place where we could talk. To my dismay, my team couldn’t locate him around the city. There was no trace of him that indicated that he entered the city from anywhere. I was sure that he was already inside the city but couldn’t know how to reach him. He was the only person who could tell us about her whereabouts. I only wanted to ensure that she is recovering.

“Sir… the person with almost 70% resemblance with Francesco has been seen near a small restaurant in Boston this afternoon”, one of the team members of the Cyber King reported to me. “I am coming there”, I informed him and then went out of my room. So, he was already in Boston. I wondered when did he arrive in Boston?

I went inside the surveillance room and asked the person to show me whatever he had on that person. He showed one of the government security camera footage at the cross-section of the roads. He was talking on the phone while walking casually. This was the busiest street in Boston. I narrowed my eye when I recognized the area.

After sometimes he entered a small local restaurant at the end of the road. The restaurant was near Kyle’s office. I guess I could meet Kyle for the lunch there. “He is visiting the same restaurant almost every afternoon for the past 5 days”, the person informed me and I nodded. I asked him to get a closer look and he zoomed in the camera on the still of that man. The corner of my lips curled up instantly. Francesco disguised himself very well but he couldn’t do anything about his height and the features of his body.

“Send me this picture and keep an eye on this man. Look for everywhere in Boston and tell me what are the other places where he goes”, I instructed him before leaving the room. I was sure now that Keira should be in Boston right now. She would try to stop Francesco because there was no way that she would hurt him at any cost. She already had information about my every move. She would try to avoid any situation where she had to choose whom to save between us and Francesco.

“Hey… Kyle… what are you doing in the afternoon today?” I asked Kyle while going towards my room. “Are you okay?” his question took me off guard. “What’s that mean?” I questioned him back in an annoying tone. “The all almighty Arthur Williams is asking about my schedule…. Did you hit your head somewhere?” I huffed and he giggled on the other side.

“Can’t I ask my friend about his whereabouts?” I was completely annoyed by his reactions. “Of course you can ask but I wondered what made you ask this question after such a long time”, I rolled my eyes on his response. He was exaggerating things now.

“I am free this afternoon as Chris is going to attend a meeting with one of our clients in his company. Are you inviting me for the lunch?” I smiled and shook my head as he was beaming on the other side. “Yes… I was thinking to invited you over lunch today”, I laughed this time and he screamed with joy. “I am free…. I am free… tell me where to come?” I laughed more. He couldn’t change ever. He was still the same person that he was seven years ago.

“Okay….. I am coming to your office first and then we will decide where to go, okay?” I informed him and he instantly said yes to me. Then we hung up the call. The person sent me the locations wherever they spot Francesco in the last 5 days. There were three-four places where he visited frequently and stayed for a long time. I knew what I needed to do now.

I took my jacket and went out of my room. It was time to meet my old friend. Suddenly my phone rang again. It was Kyle. I knitted my brows while picking up the phone. “I forgot to tell you that Keira implanted a bug in Britanny’s bracelet that night”, I rubbed my temple in frustration. It was 4 days ago and he was telling me today. “Kyle”, I almost yelled at him and he immediately cut the phone.

I took a long breath. He was demanding a beating now. I drove towards his office while calling Tom. “Hey, Tom… how is Bri?” I asked him in a concerned tone. “She is fine now. We are taking her home today. The doctor said that she is fine for now and can go home”, he informed me. “Did you get any call from Kyle?” I asked him and he questioned me back, “Yes…. He called me every day for Bri… why?”

I sighed and then told him, “Did he tell you anything about a bug?” I wanted to confirm first that whether Tom knew or not. “No…. he didn’t tell me anything about any bug… what is it???? Is there something we need to worry?” I could sense the worry and anxiousness in his tone. “Everything is okay, Tom. Keira implanted a bug in Bri’s bracelet that night. I guess she wanted to keep herself update about Bri’s health”, I said in a calm tone and he sighed.

“Let me look for that bug first. I will try to locate her location through that bug”, he said to me and I pursed my lips. “Inform me about Bri, okay?” I said to him and he said okay to me. I hung up the call and sighed aloud. Sometimes I suspected Kyle still involved with Keira. I needed to keep an on him also. I remembered that in the past, there were various incidents where Keira escaped from my grip in a very weird way. Keira and Kyle shared a special kind of bond since their first meet in the college.

I got the message from my man that Francesco would come to the restaurant today also. He had taken a cab for the same destination. I hoped that I could talk with him anyhow today. After almost 45 minutes of driving, I reached to my destination. I was surprised to see that the restaurant was just opposite the building where Kyle’s office was. I parked the car near the restaurant and called Kyle.

“I am standing across the road of your building”, I told him while looking up towards the floor of his office. “Where are you there?” he asked me in a suspicious tone. “It’s already lunchtime and I am starving. I saw this restaurant. I look… ummm… nice… let’s have lunch here”, I almost lied through my teeth to him. I didn’t want to tell him my real intention. If he is still associated with Keira then I would surely inform her about my visit here.

“Okay…. go inside and order for me too. I will be here in ten minutes”, he said and I said okay to him before cutting the call. I was still inside my car. I decided to wait for Francesco. I wanted him entered the place first. My man was constantly watching him. According to his information, Francesco was also about to reach the same place.

After five minutes, I saw him entering the restaurant. He was on call and entered the restaurant without looking anywhere. I came out of my car and locked the car. I went inside and the place instantly made me feel like I am home. It was a small place but very cozy. I looked around for Francesco and our eyes met in the next second.
