203 Re-investigate
As promised to Romaria before, Kainer also works secretly without Christian’s knowledge to find out more about the figure of the masked girl who Suri previously said was one of the people who had kidnapped her. Although not close enough to Elena, Kainer still doubts if Elena is the masked girl.
Using an unknown cell phone to Christian, Kainer continued to communicate with a hacker who he asked to find more obvious photos or videos of the masked girl who had just come out of the hotel where Suri was taken by her kidnappers. Kainer felt if the masked girl who had just come out of the hotel was not a careless girl, from the way she walked to how she hid her face made Kainer feel if the girl was a professional which of course was very different from Elena who was just an ordinary girl. But because Kainer still has not found strong evidence that the masked girl and Elena are two different people, he has not dared to express his opinion to Christian or Jack who have both stated that Elena and the masked girl are the same person.
“What are you doing in this place, Kainer?” Christian asked, suddenly startling Kainer who had just finished talking to his servant who was looking for information about the figure of the masked girl who was the source of Elena’s disaster.
Kainer who was standing near the quiet garden turned directly towards Christian. “I’m looking for fresh air, sir.”
“Fresh air?”
“Yes, hours in the room staring at the laptop screen makes both eyes feel hot all of a sudden, sir. That’s why I try to warm up a little while breathing fresh air,” Kainer lied.
Christian who was not at all suspicious of Kainer nodding his head slowly, he understood if their work lately had indeed been too heavy. “You can take leave if you want.”
“Excuse me?”
Christian smiled. “I’m not a dictatorial and ignorant boss, Kainer. That’s why I’m giving you permission to take a few days off to charge your energy so you can work to the fullest again.”
.....
“I’m fine, young master. Besides, I also don’t have any activities in the apartment so it would be very useless if I...”
“But you need a break, Kainer. For almost two months now you’ve really worked hard. It’s very hard and I don’t want to see you sick, so you’d better take two or three days off to rest this weekend, “Christian said attentively to Kainer.
Kainer frowned. “Don’t you have a flight schedule to Geneva this weekend, sir?”
“Indeed.”
“Then why did you ask me to take leave when you wanted to go to Geneva, sir? You didn’t mean to replace me with someone else, did you?”
Christian laughed heartily at Kainer’s very absurd words, as someone who was very familiar with how Kainer worked it was unlikely Christian would replace his best assistant position with someone else’s.
“I’m serious, sir!”
Christian patted Kainer’s shoulder slowly. “I’m asking you for a leave of absence this weekend because I will also be spending time with my family in Geneva. Suri who has started working at Muller Finance International has just gotten her first salary so she wants to treat us all to meals. That’s why I have to go home. I can’t possibly refuse Suri’s request. ”
Kainer’s body immediately tensed. “So you returned to Geneva at Miss Suri’s request?”
“Yes, she asked us all to have dinner together at a restaurant we used to visit often,” Christian replied with a smile. “My sister is an adult now.” Christian’s eyes showed how proud he was of Suri today.
“But you haven’t visited the villa in almost two months, sir,” Kainer said softly. “Don’t you want to take Elena to the hospital for a routine checkup? She’s almost seven months pregnant, sir.”
Christian’s face immediately changed as soon as Kainer mentioned Elena’s name. “Indeed, why has the age of her pregnancy been seven months?”
“Don’t you want to see your baby develop, sir?”
“Doctor Caitlyn has ordered me to come to the villa to monitor Elena’s condition on a regular basis, so why do I have to come to the villa as well?”
“But sir...”
Kainer’s words were stopped by a wave of Christian’s hand in the air.
“Don’t break my mood by talking about the woman, Kainer. I’m kind enough to her now because of the baby, so please don’t make me change my mind,” said Christian coldly, for nearly three months Christian chose to keep himself busy with work that was not never ran out for the sake of diverting his desire to make love. Elena’s pregnancy really put all his plans to make Elena pay all her debts to Suri come to a halt. “You’re my man, Kainer. So stop defending her.”
“I’m not defending Elena, sir. I’m just thinking about the baby, even though it’s still in her mother’s womb but the baby still needs your presence. Baby is very sensitive and smart, sir.”
Christian frowned. “Have you ever had a child, Kainer?”
“Of course not, sir,” Kainer replied quickly.
“If you’ve never had a child, why can you talk like that? Unless you’ve ever had a child, then you can say that to me,” Christian said suddenly. “After all, after the baby is born, I will immediately take her away from Elena to be cared for at home, while Elena will remain in the villa to continue the punishment I have set.”
“You want to separate the baby from Elena, sir?” Kainer asked loudly, almost shouting.
Christian nodded softly. “Yeah, that’s my plan since I found out she’s pregnant. The baby is mine and Elena has no right to it, so there’s no problem isn’t it, if I take the baby home with me?”
“What a newborn needs is its mother, sir,” Kainer said hoarsely.
“Why do you keep defending Elena, Kainer? You have no feelings for her, do you?”
Kainer shook his head in panic. “How dare I do that, sir. I have no feelings at all for Elena.”
“Then why do you keep defending her?”
“What if Elena is innocent, sir?” asked Kainer slowly, Kainer who could no longer stand the accusations that Christian kept giving him finally decided to speak up.
Christian’s jaw hardened, his neck muscles bulging. “Innocent? After all the evidence we’ve got you’re still talking like that? Who are you really on, Kainer? You’re my man, not Elena’s man. The way you talk is really not right.”
“I only feel if the masked girl that Miss Suri mentions is not Elena, sir,” Kainer said softly. “Although they don’t see directly, the way they walk looks very different.”
“Kainer,” Christian growled.
“It would be better if we ask Miss Suri again, we confirm again what the truth is like. Before...”
“Stop Kainer, stop!” shout Christian ran out of patience, continuing to hear Kainer’s words defending Elena, making Christian’s emotions rise. His chest went up and down as he spoke.
Kainer immediately lowered his head.
“Don’t make me mad at you, don’t ever be a hero of madness for that cunning woman. I don’t know what she’s told you so you keep defending her like this. Because I really appreciate your loyalty to me all this time, I think this talk never happened. So in the future don’t ever go back to what you just told me and another thing you have to remember is if the victim is Suri, my sister who was the victim of the atrocities of Elena and her group.It is not easy for a kidnapping victim to rise from the trauma she got and I don’t want to leverage the old wound that has been healed little by little. Suri. ”
After saying that, Christian then walked away from Kainer’s car parked in front of the lobby. This afternoon Christian had a schedule to accompany Charlotte to meet some people from the Luxembourg city social service who were involved in a project similar to her. After nearly three weeks in Germany, Charlotte returned to Luxembourg to take care of some of the social activities she still handles. Because that is why Charlotte is now asking for Christian help, the main reason why Charlotte is asking for Christian help is to get more people involved in the program she is running with the United Nations. Charlotte used the charm of Christian Clarke to get more public attention. And this would of course make Christian’s name better known to the general public, which is why Christian did not refuse when Charlotte asked him for help.
Seeing the master leave, Kainer sighed. Talking to a Christian who is so stubborn is the hardest thing to win, especially now that Christian is so defending Suri. Christian did not realize that if his excessive pity for Suri had blinded both eyes to his sanity, Christian could not distinguish which was right and which was wrong. Christian blames Elena as a shield over his guilt on Suri over the kidnapping.
“I hope you don’t regret your decision, sir,” Kainer said in his heart, although he had not yet found clear evidence that the masked girl was not Elena but Kainer was already so convinced. His instincts told him that Elena was not someone with abilities like the masked girl.

“Fuck!” Christian went back to cursing angrily when the traffic light turned red.
Christian who was still so upset at Kainer vented his anger at the traffic lights. The words that Kainer had said before were so disturbing to him.
“Isn’t that Elena? It’s clear that the facial resemblance between the photo of the masked girl and Elena is almost perfect, not to mention Suri’s surprise when she saw Elena. As a kidnapping victim, Suri must still remember the faces of the damn criminals, that’s why she immediately recognized “Elena” as soon as they met at that time. It’s not possible for Suri to be so upset when she met Elena if she didn’t have any trauma on that woman. Fuck you Elena, what have you said to Kainer that he dared to fight me,” said Christian emotionally, Christian who is very sure if Elena is the masked girl who kidnapped Suri so unhappy when Kainer says if Elena is not the masked girl.
