Abigail fell silent just thinking about what she would do to the culprit. Part of her wanted to meet those who targeted Nathan. Who was the mastermind for Nathan\'s assassination attempt?

"Can I meet him? I wonder who ordered the hit," Abigail mumbled.

Ethan, Nathan, and Cherry frowned when they heard that. They didn\'t agree to her request. Why would she want to meet the person who shot her?

That shooting incident should have been a traumatic experience for her. But it looked like the opposite. The natural reaction of an ordinary person who experienced a life-threatening experience would fear the person who almost killed her.

\'Abigail already experienced this similar situation. She fell from the 13th floor. Someone pushed her. It was also a traumatic experience for her… but she remained strong.\' Nathan admired Abigail\'s strong will and bravery.

"Miss Abi, are you not afraid? That man is a dangerous person!" Ethan raised his concern. Then he gazed at his father, asking for his support. Ethan was very protective of Abigail. He didn\'t wish to expose her to traumatic events or something that might give her stress.

However, even before Nathan could say a word, Abigail spoke up, cutting him off. "Don\'t worry, Ethan. Your Dad will protect me against the bad guy. I trust him. Besides, I just want to meet the person who tried to harm your father. I want to give him a lesson myself."

Nathan didn\'t expect to hear those words from Abigail. Was she telling the truth? She wanted to see the culprit because of Nathan.

"Cough! Cough!" Nathan cleared his throat, trying to conceal the smile that was threatening to show up.

"Please, I just want to see him." Abigail pleaded to Nathan. Cherry could only sigh helplessly. She was amazed because Abigail wasn\'t afraid to confront the culprit. She was as brave as the woman she knew.

\'Sigh. I miss sis… Phantomflake. I wonder if Abigail is right. Can Nathan help us to get my sister back?\' Cherry shifted her gaze to Nathan, wondering how Abigail would ask for his help. Thinking that it was not her place to stay there, Cherry went to the mini-kitchen to put the items they bought in the refrigerator.

"I will think about it first. You still need to recuperate. Once you recover, I will make sure that you will see him." Nathan could no longer refuse Abigail\'s request. He was also anticipating what lesson Abigail would give Jack once she met him.

\'It\'s not a bad idea to watch her punish the hitman. She has the right to do that. So I will leave that man to her…\' Nathan\'s lips twitched, a sly smirk appearing on his face. But the smile disappeared right away as he remembered that Abigail\'s identity was still questionable. She mentioned Black Rose and the Phantom\'s Assassin Guild but Joker didn\'t find any connections between her and the assassin guild.

"Okay. I can recover fast. So that wouldn\'t be a problem," Abigail confidently said. She could also feel it. Her body was recovering fast. She wondered if Bam-Bam had something to do with this.

"Nate…" Abigail called him out. She wanted to ask him whether he finally found the location of the Red Dragon Mafia\'s Sanitarium or not. But there was no way she could ask him directly.

Meanwhile, Nathan met her gaze, waiting for her next words. He could sense that she had something important to say.

"What is it?"

Abigail shook her head. "It\'s nothing."

Nathan didn\'t ask her further. Then his phone suddenly rang. It was a call coming from the Syphiruz Headquarters.

"Supreme Leader, Joker has an important update. Are you free? Can you go back here to our headquarters?" Violet politely asked Nathan. But her voice was filled with urgency.

Nathan had complicated look in his eyes as he stared at Abigail. What if Joker already had an answer to his question? \'Who is Black Rose? Is it Abigail?\'

Nathan was thinking of preparing himself to hear the truth. He didn\'t want to lose control of his temper in front of Abigail. This was the least he could do since he owed her for saving his life.

"Okay. I\'m going back. Just tell him to wait." After hanging up the phone, Nathan said goodbye to Ethan and Abigail. "I have to leave now. There is an urgent matter that I need to address in the office." Nathan used the company as an alibi. But Abigail was already aware that Nathan was busy with something related to the Syphiruz Mafia.

"Okay, Dad! You can leave Miss Abi with me. I\'ll take care of her on your behalf," Ethan reassured his father while giving him a teasing smile. He loved to tease his father, especially in front of Abigail.

Nathan could only purse his lips, eyeing his son with a warning. Little Ethan just ignored his father\'s sharp gaze and stuck his tongue out at him. Ethan also giggled as he waved at his father. "Go, Dad! Leave now. I want to have private time with Miss Abi."

Nathan could only sigh in defeat. His son was being playful and mischievous. He immediately left the hospital and headed straight to the Syphiruz Headquarters.

The moment he arrived, Joker, Violet, and Chantha were already inside his office. Only Spider was not around since he was still investigating the woman whom Spade met… the woman who pretended to be a member of Syphiruz Mafia and called herself SizzlingAugust08. But aside from Nathan, there was another person who came. It was Stephen!

"What are you doing here?" Nathan asked his best friend. He was surprised to see him in the headquarters.

"I want to hear an update about Phantomflake… Did you find her location?" Stephen was too frank and direct with his motive. For the past few nights, Stephen couldn\'t sleep just thinking about Phantomflake. Just like Nathan, he was worried sick since Phantomflake was not in Nathan\'s territory.

He couldn\'t protect her. At least, he could do something for her if she was in Nathan\'s territory. Stephen hadn\'t given up yet on convincing Nathan to forget about his revenge.

Nathan assessed his best friend\'s expression. Nathan was not dumb. He already noticed the way Stephen cared about Phantomflake. He had been asking himself why Stephen\'s attention was always directed to Phantomflake. He had been protecting her in the shadow.

Nathan could still remember the shock on Stephen\'s face the moment he saw Phantomflake in person. He saw her lying unconscious in the ICU of their Medical Facility. Nathan always had a suspicion that Stephen might have known Phantomflake personally.

But Nathan chose to respect his best friend\'s privacy since he could tell that Stephen had no intention of sharing his story with him. He turned a blind eye for the past two years but now, he wanted to confront Stephen about his relationship with Phantomflake.

"Before I answer that, we need to talk," Nathan coldly said with a serious expression on his face. "Follow me on the rooftop."

Stephen nodded his head as he followed Nathan behind. As the two were walking in the hallway, Nathan\'s phone beeped. It was a unique sound indicating that his account, SizzlingAugust08, received a message from someone.

Nathan came to halt for a moment to check his message. It did not take long when a deep crease on his forehead after reading a message from the sender whose name was Cliste. Abigail used this account to communicate with Nathan. Ethan helped her to connect with Nathan\'s old account. Ethan accepted Abigail\'s friend request using his Dad\'s account.

A disbelief resurfaced in his eyes. As far as he could remember, he didn\'t add anyone as a friend but the person who messaged him appeared to be his friend.

\'This might be a friend of Ethan.\' He thought to himself.

"Is there something wrong, Nate?" Stephen asked him in puzzlement. He took a peek at Nathan\'s phone. "Are you still using your old account?" Stephen had a baffled look in his eyes since Nathan had a new friend.

Nathan moved sideways, hiding his phone screen from Stephen. "Just mind your own business, Steph…"

Stephen just let out a soft chuckle before apologizing to Nathan. He just wanted to lighten the mood since Nathan looked very serious.

Nathan didn\'t say a word and just focused on his phone, opening Cliste\'s message. Nathan was taken aback once more when he read the content of the message.

[ Red Dragon Mafia\'s Sanitarium: Country J, Abella\'s St. Block 9. 2nd Floor. VIP Room 555. ]

\'Don\'t tell me this is the exact location of the Red Dragon\'s Sanitarium? Who is Cliste? How did this person know that I was searching for this?\'

"Nate! You are spacing out again. What is it?" Stephen snapped his fingers in front of Nathan\'s face to catch his attention.

Nathan glanced at Stephen with complicated emotions on his face. "I think… Someone already tracked Phantomflake\'s location." Nathan showed his phone to Stephen. He shared the address with him.

Stephen snatched the phone from Nathan\'s hand as soon as Phantomflake\'s name was mentioned. He read the message carefully. "Who is Cliste?"

"I don\'t know," Nathan promptly responded.

"Just be careful. This might be a trap!" Stephen warned his best friend.

"I know what I have to do. I will verify this information first before I take action," Nathan extended his right hand in front of Stephen, asking him to give his phone back.

"What are you planning, Nate? Are you going to get her back personally?" Stephen asked him curiously. He knew his best friend. Nathan wouldn\'t stand still.

"Yes. I will. I have to do it. I\'ll go to Country J, myself," Nathan responded promptly,

But Stephen shook his head and held his shoulder. "Stay here, Nate. Allow me to do it. There are lots of people after your life. I will take her back on your behalf."

"Stephen, why? Why do you want to do this? You are not even a member of the Syphiruz. This is a dangerous mission. Why are you willing to do this?" Nathan wanted to hear the truth from him.

Stephen fell silent for a moment, just staring into Nathan\'s eyes. He was still contemplating whether he would reveal the truth or not.

Seeing the reluctance in Stephen\'s eyes, Nathan spoke again, urging him to tell the truth and be honest with him. "Trust me, Stephen. I\'m your best friend. I want to know the reason why you badly want to protect Phantomflake. Do you know her? Are you acquainted with each other?"

Stephen could no longer keep his secret from Nathan. This was the first time Nathan confronted him about Phantomflake.

"Yes… I knew her… I was acquainted with her in the past…"
