SENSITIVE LOVE

64

It's been two weeks, Clara's search continues. Steven was becoming more grim than ever. He is currently lying in the hospital. In weakness and stress. Clara's departure was fatal to her mentally.

Steven finished what he did with Aston four days ago. Circulating what they refer to as a drink for endurance. Imagine a company as big as Aston that produces the drink with taste variants and is intended for all ages. Circulate in the market and export it all over the world.

What is contained in it is a deadly poison that will paralyze the work of the heart in seconds if detonated. Made in such a way that when it enters the body, it will be identified as toxic and processed in the liver. The problem is, the liver will not be able to process it. Can not be neutralized, the poison bomb will only stick and stay there until it is detonated.

The moment that micro particle broke apart, it would instantly spread into the veins. After that, it would cause death as if it were a heart attack. The poison that Steven created was a new kind of poison. Only they have the tools to detect it.

The time bomb was also connected to a device in Aston's lab. Every production has a code, the codes that become a method to identify where and to the body where the poison entered. Just like a time bomb in micro form, it is controlled from afar. Aston easily killed whoever he wanted.

Violet's healed?

That is impossible, Aston is not as good as it treats its enemies. Violet was the first to drink the poison. He was made as if healed but would die at the time appointed by him.

The company secrets kept by West have also been obtained. With the help of Aston, West eventually handed him over. West seemed content to see the change of his only daughter. There is no pain and weakness like before. That made the old man lower his guard to his enemy. Aston took the opportunity to help Steven. Because Steven also posed a threat to expose what they were doing.

Pretty dangerous actually threatening Aston with it. Aston is the real demon king. Have no mercy at all and kill the feathers. It's just that Aston did treat him special from the start. I don't know what's on his mind, but ever since he became interested in Steven's genius, Aston treated him like his golden boy. Although he did not hesitate to hurt people around him, he never hurt Steven even though he was rude to him.

Steven's mother was always waiting for him. His father had returned to Korea because of the company. Jun is still driving around with Billi looking for Clara. So did Carlos. Jun will occasionally replace Steven in the company when his boss just wants to lie in Clara's room. Those were the times Steven couldn't hold back his longing. He would regret his foolish decision not being straightforward from the start.

Jun walks into Steven's inpatient room. He saw Steven who was just ignoring his mother. After all, Steven was still young despite being much more mentally mature. But moments like this, he looks like a boy in general who is heartbroken.

Steven has just entered the age of 22, very young for him to lead many companies. It is still very young to face the likes of Aston and West who are as old as his father. Even West is older than his father. But because of his genius brain he grew much more mature than his real age.

"What did you find? I hope that's good news" Steven said coldly.

"A teenage neighbor of Clara in Indonesia, saw someone break into Clara's house before Clara disappeared."

"Who is he?"

"He didn't know her, it was dark. But a cctv from his neighbor's house catches Clara's friend Aldo's car passing from the direction of Clara's house. Our men are investigating it."

"Investigating?" repeat Steven, "Bring him to me!" steven's orders, his jaw hardened.

"Stevens! what are you gonna do? instead of asking her nicely, be more polite. He's Clara's friend, after all. Not necessarily him_"

"Mom.." cut out Steven, looking at his mother who was still sitting on the side of his bed. "Anyone who dares to take my woman away, means she's ready to die in my hands" he continued coldly. His eyes now look on compassion.

His mother got up, soon came out knowing she would not be able to hold back the tears of her son's changing attitude. When he got outside, his mother sat in the waiting room. Scrubbing his head while adjusting his breath so as not to cry.

"I will order them to take him immediately" Jun said, then left Steven alone.

As Jun passes Steven's mother, Jun pauses. He gave a salute before continuing his steps.

"June!" Jun stopped, turning to look at Steven's mother who called out to him.

"I heard you were pretty close to Clara, do you really not know where she went?"

"You suspect me, Madam?" Steven's mother shook her head quickly.

"No no! I'm just asking because Clara might call you..."

"Miss knows very well I'm Mr. Steven's most loyal man. Even though we were friends, he wouldn't ask me for help on this matter." Jun replied flatly.

"I'm sorry, I just... I'm so worried now. Steven is very different. He became even more cruel and cold. She lost the warmth in her heart."

"We just have to find Miss."

"Yes, you need to find him right away. Steven'll just come back the way he used to be if Clara comes back."

'So much as I am.' Jun said inwardly.

.

Meanwhile, Arnold, Yuno and his three best friends come along with Aldo who was successfully brought by Steven's men. Jun accidentally tells them all to come to help him resuscitate Steven if he's going to be cruel to Aldo. After all, if Aldo dies then Clara will forever hate Steven. Hates him for letting Steven. Of course Jun won't let that happen. He will also not survive if he dares to prevent Steven alone.

Aldo was taken with a threat. Want to not want him to not be able to fight. To remove Clara's tracks, Aldo hides her phone. His house was ransacked, causing trouble. Moreover, his grandfather was very angry when his only grandson was forced to come along with Steven's people. He was angry, but he couldn't do anything. His power was not that big to be able to fight back.

"So..have you hidden Clara?" steven said, his tone was low and full of intimidation.

Aldo tied to a bench. Before him Steven stood arrogantly. Jun and Yuno were behind him. Arnold and his three best friends just arrived. With a worried face standing in the doorway. Following Jun's instructions telling them to shut up.

"I told you I didn't hide Clara."

Brak!

Steven kicked Aldo in the chest until his stool fell backwards and broke. The ties on the bench were released because it was deliberately not tied strongly. Aldo woke up holding his aching chest. Looking at Steven who looks very different. An empty look with a horrifying cold expression.

"Say, where is he?" ask Steven again.

Once again Aldo answered the same, Steven smiled, the kind of crazy psychopathic smile that finds its prey. Aldo even retreated backwards in fear.

"Don't know?" hiss Steven.

He pulled the gun in his pocket and fired a bullet that hit Aldo's thigh.

"Aldo! just tell me where Clara is! Steven's just gonna bring her back, not hurt her!" Shouted Samuel. Steven's three best friends look very shocked and worried.

Aldo fell with blood coming out of his thigh. He grimaced with pain. Then his eyes looked at Steven boldly.

"Kill me! then you'll lose Clara forever. Even if I knew, I wouldn't say it. I promised him." said Aldo.

Steven's heart burned, realizing his girl was leaving with someone else. Makes him want to finish Aldo off. He again brandished his weapon, aiming at Aldo's head.

"No...NO STEVEN!" scream Teddy. Bravely walked in front of Steven and blocked him. "You'll regret killing him. Be aware! What's in your head now!"

"Steve's! calm okay? We'll find Clara together. I'll help you too." said Sam, standing next to Steven and holding his hand.

Steven smiled cynically, his hand moving to point the gun at Teddy's head which blocked him.

"Master.." prevent Yuno. His feet were even trembling to see Steven now. He only wanted to see his boss because he had news of being ill. Didn't expect the problem to be like this.

"Master, calm down." stop Jun. He stood in front of Teddy, making the gun touch his forehead.

Steven chuckled in a creepy way. He dropped his gun and turned around. "Get me what I want, Jun. Otherwise you're the one who's gonna get the next shot" he said before leaving.

After Steven's departure, Sam and Bobby wake Aldo up, taking him to the room where Jun told them to. A small room in the Missions. Jun immediately called the doctor to help Aldo.

"Why did you help Clara leave?" sam asked when the doctor came out. The bullet in his leg has been lifted.

"You think I can resist when the woman I still love asks for my help?" aldo asked sarcastically. "She was crying, I've never seen Clara cry like that. It was more poignant than the time of his father's death. He's lost his footing and hope." Aldo continued. Then he looked at the silent Sam. "Why did Steven throw it away? Now sorry and want to look for it again? Hmh! don't expect me to help her."

Samuel sighed, to be honest he did not understand either. No one knows the true events between them. But Sam only has faith.

"Steven won't get engaged to another woman because. I'm sure he has a reason."

"Whatever the reason he hurt Clara." said Aldo.

Samuel nodded in agreement, even so at least they wanted to hear that reason.

While Teddy and Bobby catch up with Steven to talk to him. Jun went into that room. Sam looked at Jun. Stare at him full of probes. Sam hears some gossip, about Jun's proximity to Clara. Also the kidnapping incident involving Jun and Clara back then, makes Sam wonder how close they are.

"Just tell me where Clara is at the moment, Mister won't be patient any longer. If it doesn't kill you, then it will destroy what your family has" Jun said flatly.

Sam frowned, clearly feeling very disturbed. Not in what Jun said, but in Jun's way of calling Clara by name alone. Wonder how close they are now?

"He's already destroyed your grandfather once, are you going to waste your grandfather's hard work this time?" continue Jun.

Aldo looked angry, but he said nothing. Jun spoke again, this time making Aldo surprised.

"You left him alone out there right now. Do you know how many enemies master? there's also Raka, the crazy psychopath who wants it. If anything happens before master, I'll kill you first."

Sam gulped his saliva with great difficulty. The aura Jun gave off was clearly very different. He looks scary. Sam turned to Aldo who looked worried.

"I promised him." - Aldo.

"You can apologize later, Clara's safety is also important. Jun is right, what if those people find him? Or another bad guy?" sahut Sam's. He also tried to convince Aldo. So with all the doubts he had, Aldo finally mentioned one address.

.

Steven and Jun stood in front of a house. Look around that looks lonely. Someone came from behind the house, carrying a broom in his hand. The old mother was the owner of a house rented by Clara. He was astonished to see Steven and Jun, then approached the two.

"Who are you looking for? or want to rent this house?" tanyakanya.

"A girl who lived here for a few days, she is our friend" Jun said politely.

"Oh... Clara?"

"Yes, is he inside?" june asked again, glancing at Steven who stepped near the door of the house. But his steps came to a halt as the old mother answered Jun's question.

"He's gone with his new friend. Clara said she wanted to go back to her home country but lost her passport. So he wants to help Clara get it back. They had just left this morning, Clara said she was going to live with her friend in the suburbs."

Steven exchanged looks with Jun. Somehow the two had a bad feeling about this new friend that mother mentioned.

"You know his friend?" ask Steven.

"No, I've never seen him either. Don't know where Clara knew from. His friend had played here a few times before he brought Clara."

"Woman or..."

"A woman, somewhat more mature and brunettes." said the mother quickly.

The two immediately left after thanking the old mother. Steven immediately ordered Billi to check all CCTV that Clara might pass. They already get an idea of the brand of the car and what clothes they wear.

"I can't believe he's following someone he just met. That's not her at all."

Jun who was driving glanced for a moment, "You're right, but desperation can make him reckless" Jun said.

Both were panicked. Afraid that this woman will only use Clara, or will even do evil to her. From the old mother's story alone there have been many irregularities about his new friend.
