Chapter 144 Go to sleep, my baby boy
ALESSANDRO'S POV...
I watched her sleeping in the white hospital bed, with her brows furrowed deeply and black hair
scattered on the white pillow. As if even in a deep sleep she is worrying for her child.
Victoria... She almost lost her mind after losing our baby son. She kept blaming herself and crying
madly.
No one was able to control her and she kept fainting. We had to transfer her to the hospital and now,
she is sleeping with a heavy dose.
Doctor said, she needs sleep and her mind needs to calm down before it's too late to have a mind
stroke.
It's fucking hard for me to see my wife in this condition and the shock of Leo's kidnapping. At this point,
I also want to lose my consciousness but I can't. I need to be strong and find my son and give him back
to his mother.
I have to. There is no option left for me.
The deadliest fear is, Leo is only two months old and he needs to be breastfed from time to time and of
course, he needs his mother's touch.
I never thought at the end, Calvin would do this to me. To us. He was the guy, whom I trusted a lot. But,
at this point, I don't know whom to say my inner conflicts.
The last option for me is, Sage. I do lose my confidence in the police force at this point. It's time to find
my child and Lisa using my own ways only.
Caressing Victoria's hair, I stood up and turned to Arianna who watched me in concern.
"I will be back soon. Please, take care of her. And if she asks where am I? Tell her that, I will rescue our
son no matter what."
"But Aless, police..." She tried to stop me but I was out of the room and soon, of the hospital.
When I went down, I saw Sage waiting for me downstairs. He walked toward me and bowed a little.
"Did you trace his location?" I asked him.
He shook his head. "His location is not within my reach, sir. But, I know where is he. Maybe, in Miss
Carmella's home. Because that place is out of network."
I nodded. "What about the people I asked for?"
"They are ready, sir." He replied.
"Good." I stepped forward to the car, "now, it's time to meet my dear mother."
I went inside my car and Sage started driving. It's only two of us. And soon, three more cars started
following us. Sage informed me that they were the people I asked for.
I hired a badge of a combat group. They are eligible to handle every situation they were put to. And
need these people now because I don't know the risk of that place.
Soon, Sage stopped the car at the start of a dark forest. The three cars stopped following us. When we
get off the car, Sage spoke, "We need to walk further away because cars can't go inside."
"Let's go," I ordered and we all started walking. This time we followed Sage as he came here before for
an investigation.
We walked silently and soon, we stopped before a dark house. I looked around and suddenly, a pink
flash appeared piercing the chest of dark clouds, creating an ear-shattering sound.
It's the hint of a storm, but how did a sunny day just turn this gloomy?
"What the fuck?" I muttered to myself.
"I don't know sir, but this place is always like this. I have searched in different maps under Miss
Edwards's order, but there has been no me turn off this place. Not even in the weather forecast." Sage
said.
"This place gives me shiver and I couldn't find a way to avoid that feeling." He added and he is right.
"No matter what, I need to go inside and find my son," I muttered, encouraging myself.
"Ask the guards to spread around the house," I ordered.
"Yes, sir... Oh! Where are they!?" The moment Sage turned behind, I heard his gasp.
"What do you mean?" I frowned and turned around, only to feel empty in my head. No single man was
there.
"All of them followed us, right?" I asked, frowning deeply.
"Yes, sir. I checked home myself. All of them are the most loyal people in Edwards. They are ready to
give life to them! But, it's just..." He stepped to the forest, searching the combats came with us.
I fixated my gaze on the dark house once again. This place has a negative energy and I don't know
how to consume it. Everything feels different here. Even my mind... I don't know, but this place is
pulling me toward it.
I started walking toward the house. The door opened and I stepped inside. The place inside is lavish,
however, I see no one, not even anyone beside the door. Then who the hell opened the door for me!?
Before I could think about it, suddenly... I heard the crying sounds of a child. No! Not just any child but Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Leo!
My son! He is here! I started looking around for him. Behind the sofa. Under the sofa. Different corners
in the whole hall. But, he is nowhere!
But, I still could hear his cry. As I kept searching, my hand touched the book that was placed on the
shelf and it tilted aside. Immediately, the wall before me started moving.
I blinked in a daze and stepped inside. The whole room was dark and in the distance, some candles
were placed in a circular motion.
Frowning, I stepped further to take a close look and immediately my feet froze in the place. In that
circle, a little baby was kept! And that is my son! My Leonardo!
"Leo!" I gasped as he cried. So, this is the place he was crying! I moved my feet forthwith and get close
to my son.
However, as I was about to cross the candle circle, I heard,
"My dear boy..." A female tone rang in my head and it felt like the tone pinched in my brain cells
painfully, making me suffocated.
I paused, closing my eyes, I first let the pain fade away and opened my eyes again. Thankfully, Leo is
still right before my eyes, just a few steps my son.
But, I turned beside to see the owner of the voice and probably the biggest mistake I made. Because
the moment I turned to her, I saw a familiar face. A very familiar one, I thought I missed for thirty years,
not knowing what she did to me. To my family.
She is Carmella... The woman, who gave birth to me and successfully ignored the responsibility of a
mother.
I stared at her. I don't want to look but... I can't ignore it! As if... As if she is doing something to me! No!
Her look! Her look is so... Fascinating...
She started coming to me, with a smile on her face. "My dear boy... Such a long time later..."
I want to move, but I couldn't. I watched her come close to me, with the same smile on her face. She
raised her left hand and placed it on my forehead, "Go to sleep, my baby boy..."
That's the last thing I heard before everything turned dark before my eyes...
