Day Fifty-Three…
~~*****~~
[ At Sparks Mansion… ]
Early this morning, Nathan received an unexpected visitor. Mr. Hiroshi showed up in front of their gate along with his right-hand man, Kazuki. Nathan just asked for his DNA sample but he didn't expect that Mr. Hiroshi would go back to Country M by himself.
| Nathan invited him inside. The three of them settled down in the living room.
"What happened to you? Did you get into an accident?" Mr. Hiroshi asked Nathan as he noticed his injured arm and leg.
Nathan fell silent for a moment. He was contemplating whether he would share with him what happened to him and Abigail. He was aware that this old man became so fond of Abigail.
"Abigail and I got into an accident…" Nathan decided to tell him.
"What?! How is she?" Mr. Hiroshi raised his voice. There was a hint of worry on his face.
"She is in a coma…" Nathan spoke with a disheartened tone.
Mr. Hiroshi was shaken when he heard that. Abigail was like a daughter to him. How could this happen? "Where is she? I want to see her."
"I moved her to our medical facility. I will accompany you to the place." Nathan would also bring Mr. Hiroshi to the medical facility to get a DNA sample from him. With their current technology and advanced equipment, he could get the result as early as today.
Without delaying any more time, Mr. Hiroshi, Kazuki, and Nathan drove to the Medical Facility. Mr. Hiroshi didn't bring any guards today. He was in low profile. The Red Dragon Mafia was now targeting him. The Red Dragon Mafia became Mr. Hiroshi's enemy when he found out that a member of the Red Dragon was the one who had shot Abigail before.
It did not take long before they reached the medical facility. Mr. Hiroshi was saddened when he saw Abigail's current condition. He felt like his heart was being squeezed right now. He missed talking to her. He missed seeing her smile and her bright personality.
"How did this happen?" Mr. Hiroshi asked Nathan with a cold voice. "I thought you were going to protect her? You failed again, Nathan!"
Nathan could only lower his gaze. He felt ashamed to face him. Mr. Hiroshi was right. He failed to protect Abigail once more.
"I'm sorry. I became so careless. There are still people who are after her life. But I'll make sure to catch them all." Nathan swore to him.
Mr. Horishi clenched his jaw and said, "If you need my assistance, I'm willing to help. Let's catch those bastards!"
Nathan glanced at him, feeling grateful. Mr. Hiroshi offered him help just to catch those bastards.
"I will not refuse your offer, Mr. Hiroshi." Nathan gladly accepted it.
"Just tell me anything you need. I will mobilize my team. I will send them to you and make use of them as you like!" Mr. Hiroshi was furious because Abigail's life was put in danger again. He had become so attached to her.
"This is noted, Sir." Nathan was polite when talking to this old man.
"By the way, I received your message. You were asking for my DNA sample. Let me ask you this… Have you found my missing daughter?" Mr. Hiroshi remembered the reason why he went to Country M today. He was expecting a piece of good news from Nathan. He thought Nathan wouldn't ask for his DNA sample for no reason. He might have got a clue about his missing daughter's whereabouts.
Nathan looked at him with conflicting thoughts. He wanted to grab this opportunity to use the Sawada Clan's connection.
"I don't want to give you false hope. But I will give you an update as soon as I confirm something. But for now, I need you to trust me. Will you give me a sample of your DNA?"
Mr. Hiroshi just sighed helplessly. "Fine. I'm going to trust you because of Abigail. She has full confidence in you."
"Before that, Mr. Hiroshi… there is something I wanna confess to you." Nathan didn't want to hide his other identity from him.
"What is it?" Mr. Hiroshi asked him expectantly.
"I'm the leader of the Syphiruz Mafia." Nathan declared to him.
Mr. Hiroshi: "..."
"I decided to keep my identity because I know you don't trust me… or the mafia group. I had no choice. But now, I don't want to keep this from you." Nathan revealed it.
Mr. Hiroshi narrowed his eyes at him. "Does she know?"
Nathan bobbed his head. "Yes. Abigail knows my connection with the Syphiruz Mafia. And she accepted it."
Mr. Hiroshi heaved another sigh of defeat. "Alright. I can accept it… as long as Abigail is fine with it."
Nathan felt relieved when he heard that.
"Okay. You can get my blood sample now." Mr. Hiroshi didn't question Nathan anymore.
"Thank you, Mr. Hiroshi. I will inform you as soon as I find your daughter." Nathan reassured him.
Nathan called the nurse who would get Mr. Hiroshi's blood sample. While they were waiting for her, Nathan opened up another topic.
"Mr. Hiroshi… have you heard about the organization called the Raven?" Nathan didn't sleep last night just searching and tracking this organization. But to his disappointment, he didn't get any significant information.
He doubted if this organization truly existed or not. But Phantomflake mentioned it. And she was not lying because of the Truth Serum.
"The Raven?" Mr. Hiroshi rubbed his chin as he tried to think whether he heard of this organization or not.
"I haven't heard of it. But I can ask someone to verify and look for this organization. Why? Do you have any conflict with them?" Mr. Hiroshi asked him.
"Yes. The Raven was the organization that hired someone to kill my ex. For the past two years, I've been trying to get my revenge. But I just found out who called the hit two years ago. The assassin finally confessed."
'Ans that assassin might be your missing daughter,' Nathan added to his thought while staring at Mr. Hiroshi meaningfully.
"Alright. Will you forget about your ex once you get your revenge? Will you devote yourself to only one woman?" Mr. Hiroshi challenged Nathan.
"Yes…" Nathan replied.
"Fine. I'll help you locate them." Mr. Hiroshi said without hesitation. "I'm doing this for Abigail."
"But once you find my daughter, I promise to devote myself and my organization to you." Mr. Hiroshi added. "I will do more… than what you expect me to do."
"Find her soon."
