Facade Love: Marrying A Perfect Husband

Chapter 159 - 159 ( Like An Eel )

Harry whispered.

"Eating you alive. And museum your bones in the state treasury. I will definitely protect your fossils for hundreds of years to come. You will become an immortal being in the 3000th century,"

Cleo spontaneously shuddered in anger.

"Why did you say that? Are you crazy?" Cleo shrieked sharply.

Cleo at first just wanted to know the authenticity of the answer. But Harry actually dared to play with her?

Whoa! Awesome!

Cleo suppressed her curiosity in silence and all her efforts to retaliate. Harry was already looking coldly at Cleo again.

The bad thoughts about Cleo's answer were still ringing in his mind. Harry certainly would never let that answer out of Cleo's mouth.

He walked to his room and ignored any expressions of dissatisfaction and displeasure from Cleo. Cleo watched him leave with half annoyance. Inflated her cheeks on purpose. Cleo stomped her foot down three times.

Harry was again lost in his disheveled thoughts. Someone suddenly called him. Harry didn't recognize the caller's number. Felt it might be the same number who was terrorizing Cleo.

Harry immediately picked up the phone and heard a woman's voice.

"This is me. Aretta," said the caller who turned out to be Aretta.

Harry immediately stood up straight.

"What do you want and what's your business?" Harry asked super coldly and sharply. Until he didn't expect that Aretta would contact him at this time.

Aretta must be somewhere to hide right now. Harry walked straight to his desk and opened a drawer. Picked up another cell phone, which he rarely used to contact his team.

Harry sent them a quick message.

'The target has appeared. Track my phone right away!'

He wrote briefly on the boardcast to all his main teams. Within a second he immediately received a reply message.

'Okay!'

Wrote Luan fast as the first reply message sender.

Reihan immediately created an impromptu group to make communication easier for all members.

Harry immediately pressed the record button on his cell phone, just in case.

"I called you just to say something," Aretta's voice came again from the other line.

Harry began to listen.

"There is someone who wants to harm you. And he is serious about his actions. I don't know the reason. But he sure doesn't seem to be kidding," Aretta's words made Harry listen to her with full focus.

"Who do you mean?" Harry squinted

Aretta's information would certainly be a piece of valuable information for him. Because he himself was still confused with who the people who were playing with him.

Aretta seemed to answer timidly.

"Mr. Robby. The big boss at Yugio. He plans to destroy your company. He deliberately used me to mess with your feelings so you can't focus on work. Deliberately creating a lot of stumbling blocks to damage your reputation to invite many people. You have to be careful with him," said Aretta in a voice that almost seemed to drown from being deliberately smothered.

Harry and his team still communicated with each other in their group chat.

[ 'I found the IP. ] – wrote Luan. Harry only skimmed through it.

The second message was replied to by Arthur & Reihan simultaneously.

[ 'Where? ]

[ 'Suburbs. Precisely in *Ledug. Using one of the public telephones that are rarely used today. She seemed genuinely afraid of being tracked down. ] – wrote Luan in his chat message.

Several other members joined in.

[ 'What is this? ] - wrote Steven who was invited to the group chat too.

Reihan typed his reply message.

[ 'Aretta just contacted Harry and they are currently communicating. Luan was tracking her position. ]

Steven just said 'Oh'.

[ 'Oh! Okay! And then? ] -Steven looked impatient.

[ 'I'm getting someone to catch her. ] –Arthur wrote quickly. And indeed had asked several people to go there to catch Aretta directly from the data he managed to get.

Alfin seemed to be interested.

[ 'Did it work? Anyway, contact me if it works! I have other business. I'll be back soon ] -he wrote hastily. Then he did his activities again.

Harry provoked Aretta to talk more. Harry seemed to be starting to get curious about the information just now. He obviously also needed to buy time until Luan's men made it to their destination.

"Do you think I still need to believe what you say? And do you have any proof?" Harry asked in an even tone.

Aretta seemed to sense that Harry was very displeased when he spoke to her. Aretta answered again.

"I really don't have any evidence. However, today's incident that happened at the construction site was pure because of their actions."

Harry laughed mockingly.

"Didn't you work for him?" Harry quipped on purpose.

Harry actually wanted to say that if it was really Robby who was the mastermind behind all of his misfortune all these times. Then Aretta must be his accomplice or his ally!

"Then why do you say that?"

Aretta seemed to take Harry's words in a different sense. Thought that what Harry meant was that Aretta had been working for Robby's company all along but why was she so fluent in voicing her own boss's information.

Aretta answered Harry's question in her usual tone of voice.

"I did work for him. That's why I was able to figure this out. And I don't mean to badmouth your important business partner. I just don't want you to be in danger."

Harry immediately gritted his teeth.

'Don't want me to be in danger. But do want my wife to be in danger?'

Harry's eyes lit up.

The anger within him suddenly rose to the top. Harry clearly hadn't paid her what she deserved. And kept counting the time until Luan's men managed to reach their target.

Harry again received a group chat message from Arthur.

[ 'My men will be here soon. They are only a few meters away. ]

Finished reading the message, Harry heard Aretta's words suddenly cut off.

"Harry, I really..."

Aretta sounded difficult to finish her sentence. Harry heard a creaking sound from across the phone. Until the woman sounded like she was struggling in a low voice and there were some moving silently around her.

Could it be that Arthur's men were already there? Harry tried to call Aretta several times.

"Aretta? You.. are you still there?" Harry exclaimed, still listened intently to the sounds that were pulling his hearing to be sharper.

Harry heard someone hang up the phone that Aretta might have accidentally removed. He waited for Arthur to call him back.

[ 'How? ] - Harry wrote briefly in his message.

Arthur replied to the message within a second.

[ 'No news. ] - wrote Arthur.

Harry waited impatiently. Harry seemed to be thinking of something bad. Arthur contacted him immediately when a few minutes had passed frantically.

"This is terrible! Someone seems to have gotten ahead of us. He managed to get Aretta to escape from that place. My people couldn't find her. How did that woman know we were after her?" Arthur cursed angrily and wondered how Aretta was acting like an eel.

They should only be a few steps away but it was too late. Was the thief's ability greater than him?

Harry seemed to be thinking seriously.

"Aretta was not taken away by her allies but was kidnapped. Someone had covered her mouth and took her quietly. You're only a few seconds behind," Harry said which instantly darkened Arthur's face.

"Someone kidnapped her?" Arthur was surprised to learn about that fact.

Then started to rack his brain.

"Who kidnapped her?" he asked without any predictions. Harry answered the question in a relaxed half-cold.

"Robbyanto. I'm sure it was his men who kidnapped Aretta," Harry said with a stiff look.

"Now, your job is to immediately investigate in full of the profile about him. Make me a list of all the reasons that man wants to destroy me. I need to know everything."

The two then ended the call. Arthur immediately told Luan to help him. The two of them were now working together to investigate Robby.

And the person they were investigating was smoking deeply. Robby had just received information from his men about their success in capturing Aretta.

Aretta had now tied and been brought down to an empty room. Aretta was unbelievably frightened. Didn't recognize a single person among the men who ambushed her. Aretta continued to listen carefully to every sound she heard in the darkness.

Her eyes from the time she was ambushed had been blindfolded until she was taken somewhere. Aretta didn't recognize any of her surroundings well in that state.

Aretta could only surrender when her kidnapper removed the blindfold and the knot in her hand. Aretta was quite horrified to think that she was about to experience something bad. She suddenly heard the voice of someone that seemed familiar to her.

The men who brought her handed Aretta to another stranger.

"Boss, this is the woman you are looking for," said one of the subordinates who brought her before the boss.

Aretta heard the boss's voice with a frown.

"Good. Leave her here and let her sit there," the man said while pointing through his eyes which sitting position that the man wanted.

Aretta continued to suppress her heart and saliva so as not to worry. Aretta seemed to know who had kidnapped her. Someone suddenly opened her blindfold.

The glare hit Aretta for a moment before she got used to the bright lighting in the room. She knew very well who the man who was standing in front of her was. Aretta pursed her lips nervously.

Acer looked at her sharply. While Aretta reflexively said his name.
