The Runaway Groom
Zachary recognized the man-he was one of the protective details Stan had arranged for them whom
Zachary stationed outside.
He frowned. ‘Why are you panicking?”
The man shook his head-he was not panicking, but it was urgent.
“There is someone asking for you outside,” the man reported.
“Who?” Zachary asked.
“No idea.”
Why did he bother asking?
Zachary started to head outside, with the man in tow. “Let’s go take a look.”
At the gates, Zachary saw that the person looking for him was actually a boy. Standing at a modest five
foot four, he looked scrawny and his cheeks were dirty as if he had not bathed for a long time, and he
had tied up his long hair.
Zachary felt suspicious since the filth hid the boy’s face, but asked, “You were looking for me?”
The boy nodded.
“Who sent you?” Zachary asked.
“A Zidonian named James Cross,” the boy said, still staring at him. “He told me about this place.”
Zachary turned serious since James did know about the place.
However, he did not believe the boy immediately, since they had been getting into endless and
complicated problems.
“Really?”
“Yes.” The boy held out his palm to show the number written on it, which was Zachary’s too. “He said to
call you if I can’t find you here.”
Zachary believed the boy already but did not lead him into the house.
He told the man beside him quietly in his ear, “Tell the others I’m leaving for the night.”
Irene and her children were staying here, and he should not recklessly bring the boy, Barzel, inside
without knowing who he was.
Taking Barzel to a hotel, he said, “Get yourself cleaned up. I’ll get you some clothes.”
Barzel nodded.
Zachary left the room, heading to the lobby to buy some clothes.
He then went somewhere quiet and called Stan, who quickly picked up.” Hello?”
“Have you found James yet?” Zachary asked.
“We know who has him, but we haven’t gotten him out yet.”
Zachary leaned against the wall as he said, “There’s this boy who just came to me. He looks around
sixteen and local. He said James sent him, but I’m not sure if he’s friend or foe.”
Stan did not know either, and said, “I’m hanging up. Just wait for a while- ill call you later.”
Zachary did so, but he waited a long while without any reply from Stan.
Almost losing patience, he was wondering if he should call Stan again when his phone rang.
“So?” he asked impatiently after answering. “How did it go? And what took you so long?”
Stan ignored the last part and said, “Just found out who he is. He’s good, but don’t bring him into the
house.”
He then gave a summary of Barzel, who turned out to be the son of the couple who saved Isaac.
Barzel had been a hostage and was confined in the same place with James after he was captured.
James helped him escape when he had a chance, telling him Zachary’s address instead of Isaac’s
castle just in case. After all, if Barzel turned out to have been brainwashed, he would lead the gang
straight to Isaac’s family.
Zachary had therefore shown composure and wit since he took Barzel straight to a hotel instead of into
his own home.
Hanging up later, Zachary headed back to the hotel room, and waited on the couch, prepared to probe
Barzel’s allegiances.
However, Barzel did not leave the bathroom even after a long while, and Zachary checked his watch.
It had been over an hour—Barzel had to be done by now!
What was keeping him?
Zachary walked over to knock on the bathroom door, but Barzel did not respond.
He opened it to find the room still filled with steam, but Barzel was nowhere to be seen.
Where did he go?!
