A Stolen Kiss From THE CEO!

140 Panic

Leon was just walking into his hotel room when his phone started beeping a red signal. His chest tightened and he felt his heartbeat stop. The color drained from his face and was replaced by horror.

He quickly dashed over to his dresser and picked up his necessary travel documents while he dialed Sky’s number.

“Boss, we have already tracked her position to the Mall and I am personally leading a strike team to rescue her,” Sky spoke in a slightly tense tone. He could imagine the horrific look on Leon’s face right now.

“Get there quickly, Sky!” Leon’s voice trembled for the first time in a long time. “I don’t want anything bad to happen to her. I am taking the next available flight back home.”

“Don’t worry boss, we’ve got you covered. We will be there in the next three minutes.” Sky spoke in a reassuring tone.

“Good!” Leon ended the call and dashed out of the room. On his way out of the presidential hotel, he called Maxwell and informed him of the current situation.

“Go and save your wife, son,” Maxwell spoke calmly to his agitated nephew. “Make whoever sent those bastards to her pay dearly for their crime.”

“I will, uncle,” Leon said between clenched jaws and ended the call. On his way to the airport, he was met with another ambush.

Eight masked men, who have been tipped off that Leon was on the move decided to block a central route.

.....

Immediately, Leon’s car was sighted, the eight men jumped out of their vehicles and opened fire on his car.

The heavy sounds of spraying bullets from automatic machine guns and AK-47s filled the air. It was as though a mafia war was ongoing due to the fierceness of the attackers.

Motorists and passengers came out of their cars, screaming and taking cover from the ongoing battle. Unfortunately, some were caught by stray bullets.

Fortunately for Leon, his car was bulletproof but he knew that staying in the car was a death sentence.

Just as Leon was escaping from his car, a grenade launcher was fired toward the car. The driver of the car was instantly killed in the explosion, but Leon was lucky enough to escape. However, due to the continuous spraying of bullets from the assailant’s weapons, Leon caught a bullet on his left shoulder.

Enraged by the temerity of the attacker, the threat to his wife’s life, and his bleeding shoulder, Leon quickly drew out two revolver pistols and repositioned himself like a professional marksman, and aimed at his attackers.

BANG!

BANG!!

BANG!!!

Six of the attackers met their maker instantly while two quickly entered their car and zoomed off at high speed.

At that very moment, Leon’s backup team arrived.

“Quickly, pursue and get back those assholes for interrogation. Hand them over to my uncle,” Leon ordered the first team in a frosty tone.

“Okay, boss,” the first car immediately zoomed off in pursuit of the escaping attackers.

“You, take me to the airport now!” Leon boomed angrily and jumped into the car.

At the airport, Leon quickly chartered a private plane to take him back to Amzone city. A doctor also accompanied him on his travel and attended to his bruised shoulder.

“Mr. Leon, you are one lucky man.” The doctor smiled while attending to Leon’s bruised shoulder. “The bullet was just a flesh wound. A few inches above and we would be looking at a severely damaged bone.”

Leon stared at the doctor but didn’t say anything. His mind was racing with a million questions as he thought of the terror Ella was currently experiencing.

Leon badly wanted to reach out to Ella but he knew that calling her could put her in further jeopardy.

Leon’s mind became poisoned as he thought of all the nasty things he would do to all those who had chosen to torment Ella in his absence.

While Leon was lost in his thoughts and wishing the plane could fly faster than it was already going, he got a call that brought back cheerfulness on his face.

“Babe, are you all right?” Leon asked in a slightly anxious tone. His heart was thumping erratically and his head throbbed from all his worrying. He briskly stood up and pushed the doctor who was attending to his wound, aside.

“I’m fine for now, dear!” Ella replied in a whisper. Her voice felt rather composed for someone who was discharged from the hospital the previous day, due to a panic attack.

“Oh, thank goodness!” Leon breathed out forced air. He placed his hand on his chest to steady his pounding heart and quickly linked the call to Sky’s mobile phone, so that Sky could act swiftly.

“So far, I’ve counted about nine people chasing after me. They are armed and they look very dangerous. One of them has already killed Rico(the head bodyguard) and it is kind of difficult to identify them due to their disguises. I asked my other two bodyguards to wait for me outside the mall and I don’t know if they are still alive.

“Shit!” Leon cursed out loud. He clenched and unclenched his fist to stifle his rampaging emotions. His whole body shook with rage and fear for Ella’s safety.

“I think the people after me want to kidnap me because they have not shot at me even when they have guns in their hands. I have already killed three of them but the other six are hot on my trail and I have only three bullets left in my gun.”

“That’s my girl!” Leon praised her amidst eye-blinding rage. Sky and his men should be at the mall by now. Where are you currently?”

“I’m hiding inside the cinema hall. Shit! Leon, One of the men just spotted me.” Ella’s voice broke into a panic. “He is talking on the phone and another man has joined him. There are three people now who are all running toward me! Help!”

BANG!

BANG!!

BANG!!!

“Ella! Ella!! Ella!!!” Leon screamed at the top of his voice. He listened in horror and heard cries of pain, people screaming voices, scraping of chairs, and a tussle, followed by Ella’s screaming voice; which went silent after a few seconds. Afterward, a loud bang on Ella’s phone which almost ruptured his ear drum came next, and then everything fell silent.
