BXBX NOVEL Chapter 496 Taken
Tristan and Matthew exchanged glances with one another after hearing the word of the Gang Leader.
"Just come with us peacefully and we will never hurt the ladies," the gang leader repeated his words.
Zhen-Zhen shook her head. She had a bad feeling about this. She wondered what these men would do to Tristan and Matthew.
This was the first time she encountered something like this in this world. She could associate these men with those guardian warriors who surrounded them before.
This scene brought back bad memories from the past. She could feel that these men were trying to use her and Sophia just to get what they wanted from Tristan and Matthew.
It was the same thing the guardian warriors did in the past, holding Zhen-Zhen and her mother as hostages to attack and harm her father, the demon god.
Meanwhile, Tristan nodded at Matthew, signaling him to agree. Matthew didn't object to Tristan's decision. Their main priority was their women's safety.
"Alright, we are coming with you, just release the ladies," Tristan responded to the gang leader.
The gang leader smirked triumphantly. He was glad that both men were together with their women. The mission of luring Tristan and Matthew to follow them became easy.
Both Tristan and Matthew raised both hands as a sign that they were surrendering themselves. They didn't have any plan to start a fight there as long as Zhen-Zhen and Sophia would be safe.
Soon, the gang leader signaled his underlings to restrain Matthew and Tristan, bringing them inside the black van.
"Matt!" Sophia called his name worriedly. She didn't know what they would do to them.
Matthew just gave her a reassuring smile. He didn't want Sophia to be in danger. He would do everything just to protect her.
Tristan also glanced at Zhen-Zhen meaningfully. He didn't want Zhen-Zhen and their baby to be at risk. Though Zhen-Zhen had power, Tristan would not allow her to use it just to save them.
People might learn about her power so it was better for Tristan to settle this without letting her use her power. It would be troublesome for them if many people would discover Zhen-Zhen's extraordinary ability.
Little did Tristan know, this incident had triggered Zhen-Zhen. She recalled the past event in her life when her family fought the guardian warriors.
Zhen-Zhen's emotions were slowly becoming unstable right now. Zhen-Zhen's inner demon started kicking in her subconscious as she watched Tristan and Matthew being dragged by a group of men.
"Boss, what should we do with them? If we let them go, they might report us to the police," one man asked their leader. He was referring to Sophia and Zhen-Zhen.
The gang leader raised his eyebrow when he heard that. His underling had a point.
"Hmm, well. Then we have no choice but to bring them with us. We will not touch them but I'm afraid they will see how their loving men will be beaten into a pulp."
"Now, let's go! It's nice to have audiences as we torture those men. This is gonna be more fun," the gang leader added, flashing his sinister smile.
"Ok, boss! Got it. Men, bring the ladies to the other van."
They pushed Sophia and Zhen-Zhen toward the other van. Matthew and Tristan didn't see that Sophia and Zhen-Zhen were also taken by the gang members. The men already tied their hands inside the van and blindfolded them.
Soon, Tristan and Matthew felt the car moving. They didn't have any idea where they were going. They wondered who ordered these men to capture them. Tristan started to speculate in his mind.
'Who is the mastermind behind this? Could it be Clifford Sy? But Clifford has no reason to involve Matthew here. The man a while ago specifically mentioned Matthew's name. So it couldn't be Clifford.'
"Who the hell would try to go against the Davis Family and Wilkins Family? Are they stupid?' Tristan thought to himself.
'I swear, once I learn who is the person behind this, I will give him a good lesson! Only fools will try to mess with me and Matthew!'
Matthew was thinking about the same thing. The two men already made a mental note to punish the mastermind of this.
They hated the fact that they used Zhen-Zhen and Sophia in order to get them. They would surely fight back after this.
Meanwhile, on the other van, Sophia was very anxious. Just like Tristan and Matthew, Zhen-Zhen and Sophia were blindfolded. Sophia held Zhen-Zhen's hand. She was so scared for their safety.
Sophia felt helpless. What if something bad would happen to Matthew and Tristan? There was no way to ask for help. The men confiscated their phones.
Who would have thought that they would be held captive by unknown men? She was also afraid of Zhen-Zhen's safety and her baby. What if these men would also try to hurt them?
Sophia felt like crying already. She thought that they were in a very desperate situation wherein no one could help them.
She was praying silently, hoping that someone would accidentally come and save them.
Zhen-Zhen, on the other hand, was very silent in her seat. She could feel Sophia's negative emotions. She could tell that she was terrified and anxious.
Zhen-Zhen wanted to calm her and comfort Sophia but she couldn't concentrate.
She was trying to control her emotion as she could feel her inner demon was trying to take over her consciousness.
She couldn't allow that to happen, not now! If she lost control of her mind, her inner demon might do something she was not supposed to do again.
She had to stop her inner demon from taking over her mind and body at all costs. That's the only way she could keep everyone safe.
Zhen-Zhen was so occupied with fighting her inner demon that she failed to contact FaMo and informed him about their situation.
After thirty minutes, the van finally stopped, indicating that they already reached their destination.
Zhen-Zhen and Sophia heard the gang leader giving instructions to his underlings.
"The two of you wait here and watch the girls. We will go first and do our job. Just bring them in once we need more fun."
"Yes, boss. Got it!"
