A Bloody Sign
Lorraine barked, ‘‘Drive faster! We need to get back to the hotel.’‘
‘‘Don’t worry, Ms. Lorraine. I’ll get you there in ten minutes.’‘ The chauffeur stomped on the gas pedal
and sped toward the hotel.
As he promised, the car pulled into the hotel driveway in under ten minutes.
Lorraine was filled with inexplicable dread as she walked along the corridor. She shot her subordinate a
look, and he slowly clasped her hand to offer her support.
It’s silent. Far too silent. She suddenly realized what was off about the whole situation. The place was
unusually quiet. When she left, she had arranged two men to guard Sonia, and it was too odd for the
room to be completely noiseless.
She turned around and whispered to her subordinate, ‘‘Go in and check out the situation. I think
something happened. It’s far too quiet. Be careful.’‘
He nodded in acknowledgment before cautiously ascending the stairs. Then, he gently opened the
door to the room which held Sonia captive.
He froze on the spot as his gaze roved over the mess in the room. It appeared as though a fight had
taken place. More worryingly, no one was in the room.
‘‘Ms. Lorraine! There’s an emergency! Come up here right away!’‘ he yelled toward his boss
downstairs.
D*mn it! Something bad really happened. Lorraine’s heart sank when she heard her subordinate’s
yells. Immediately, she rushed upstairs and entered the room.
‘‘What on earth happened? Where did everyone go?’‘ Lorraine shrieked at the man beside her.
He hastily lowered his head as though he had done something wrong and mumbled, ‘‘I don’t know.’‘
Though he had little to do with their disappearance, he was the one who chose the two guards in the
first place.
Right then, he hated those two outlaws with a vengeance and wished for nothing more than to capture
them immediately.
‘‘I don’t care about the guards. Where the heck is Sonia?’‘ Lorraine struggled to suppress her rage and
paced the room agitatedly.
She looked like a volcano that was about to explode.
Sonia was no ordinary figure, and her subordinate knew they had to tread with caution. To that end, he
had chosen the two most trustworthy-looking fellows to guard her, yet things still went wrong.
‘‘Maybe her family came to save her and took the guards away? What do you think, Ms. Lorraine?’‘ he
reminded Lorraine when she continued to pace the room.
However, she did not answer him and appeared to be searching the room for something. Finally, she
discarded the cigarette in her hand and slowly knelt as though she had discovered something, staring
intently at the floor.
‘‘What did you find, Ms. Lorraine?’‘ Her subordinate quickly followed her line of gaze and stared at the
floor, but he did not notice anything amid the mess.
Lorraine got to her feet and explained, ‘‘Bloodstains! Send some men to track the two guards down
immediately. I fear that Sonia was injured, not rescued.’‘
At the same time, the two guards who had fled the room covered their faces with caps and were
muttering anxiously among themselves.
The shorter of the two grumbled, ‘‘Why did you hit her so hard? How could you kill her when you just
wanted to knock her out cold?’‘
‘‘All you know is to complain about me. If you didn’t try to take advantage of her, she wouldn’t have
struggled so much. There wouldn’t have been a need to hit her then!’‘ His fellow guard sighed in
exasperation.
After they had knocked Sonia out cold, they thought of giving Lorraine a call. Alas, before they dialed
her number, they noticed that Sonia’s head was bleeding profusely and that her breathing had become
dangerously shallow.
Fearful of potential retributions owing to Sonia’s background, they opted to abandon the injured Sonia
and escape.
They believed they were safe as long as they returned to their home country before anyone found out
about Sonia’s kidnapping.
