Chapter 47: Lead Ben’s POV Ben choose to stay out of the room, he was watching them through the glass of the door. He watched how worried they are. His eyes fell on his cousin who lost his cool and was mad at the girl lying on the hospital bed, who he also love the most. ‘This man will never think twice to share his knowledge about this with her.’ He thought and then he turned to the girl who was holding Fera’s other hand. ‘No one could ever read every Fuentes and their trusted people. Knowing she was the most trusted secretary of Mr. Fuentes, she wouldn’t stand where she was standing for nothing.’ He calculated her every move, small but he couldn’t estimate her experience. He got his phone out and messaged Nick that he was heading out. He randomly choose a room and got in there, he removed his pajamas, and he was wearing ready-to-go clothes inside. Then he had thrown it into the trash bin in that room. He waited until someone got in, he acted as if he was busy on his cellphone. The nurse who got in saw him but didn’t ask him or anything, he just went straight to check the patient on the bed, he almost rolled his eyes when he realized that someone was lying on the hospital bed. He looked at her and saw she was looking at him. He smiled and using his thumb, he pointed to the door behind him. “Gotta go,” she smiled and nodded so he went out as if he knew that patient and just visited her. He walked calmly and waited for a taxi. He didn’t go straight home but dropped at the firm he was working for. He went inside for a coffee and waited for five minutes before going home. In his head, if the culprit didn’t expect this to happen, he’ll definitely do something to mend this situation. He had a great feeling that whoever it was, he or she could see everything that was happening to Fera. “We’ll wait for them to move for now.” He whispered and typed the ‘Loraly De Jesus’ the picture popped on his screen, it was an image of her in her straight black hair, thick black reading glasses, and corporate outfit. She was holding a blue folder in her left hand. All of her pictures were stolen, he kept scrolling and he stumbled on the picture of her in her high school uniform. “A province girl. Twenty-eight years of old, Mr. Fuentes’ secretary for nine years, almost a decade, huh?” He already knew that she was too young when Mr. Fuentes hired her but didn’t expect her to be that young. He had cleared her name neatly. Trained her well and molded her to be a great secretary. Then he found a picture of her with Fera, ‘how much do you treasure his daughter?’ he thought while looking at the picture, the twenty years old she was holding the seven years old Fera as they walk across the road. Another picture came in, it was the rarest picture of baby Fera in the arms of a woman. He knew who it was, it was the old lady that Fera treasures the most. These elusive people around her were difficult to read. Loralie is the secret agent of an agency that was targeting Mr. Fuentes. She graduated Bachelor of Mass communication when she was an IT literate and a secretary. Felicidad Torres her nanny since she was born, military graduate, and served for twenty years until Fuentes offered her a job to take care of her daughter. When she accepted it, the whole media world was shocked and the newspaper publisher had gone far broadcast it. Why would a couple hire a soldier with no experience with babies to take care of their daughter? Every violent reaction did nothing to stop it. Baldo the butler that just popped in out of nowhere. No complete name or family background even educational background. All he knew was that this man was beyond those previous employees in every way to have the full trust of Mr. Fuentes. Obvious enough that she was well-guarded even as an orphan. As if the couple made sure of her safety, with or without them. “Now, I can’t imagine how huge it is below the tip of this iceberg.” He switched to the footage of their house, which was given by Lora. All the footage a month before he was killed and another month after he was killed. ‘If all of their servants were not there, then maybe the neighbor’s servants did.’ He broke into their CCTV cameras around the village to check the nearest house from their house. His finger stopped mid-way when he realized what was happening. He easily broke into their security system when he knew that Fuentes was beyond clever even their enemies.
“Crap!” He easily escaped but glitches show up. “Stupid!” He did all he can to defend his system until his keyboard wasn’t functioning anymore. He didn’t care if he broke his keyboard just to save his data. He kept entering codes and he gradually won it back. Until he left with a notification that said ‘Download file complete.’ He was hesitant upon clicking that notification but he eventually did.
Unexpectedly, someone sent him a video clip of the Fuentes couple fighting. He put his headphone on and watched the video.
‘I have told you already, that this is not a good idea.’ Mrs. Fuentes strongly disagreed. ‘Well, I don’t need your opinion! Stay out of this. Go take care of our daughter.” He was calm but his words were too harsh which made her cringe on her forehead while Mr. Fuentes sat on his swivel chair. ‘What did you just say? Are you implying something, Ferdinand?’ She still had her calm and soft composure. ‘You have nothing to do with this.’ He said and lighted up his pipe with tobacco in it. ‘You have been hiding a lot, Ferdinand, and I am not liking it. I won’t be surprised if a mistress would show up pregnant claiming you as the father of her baby.’ ‘Don’t start with me, Raina. I am not the one who was seeing someone behind your back. You might think that I didn’t know about Reymondo.’ The camera was in the perfect place to capture the shocked expression of Mrs. Raina. ‘It’s not what you think!’ ‘Losing your cool that quick, I doubt that I am not missing something in here.’ The video ended there, they were staring at each other’s eyes. “Reymondo.” He whispered under his breath.
