Chapter 353 - Three Hundred And Fifty-three: Stay Off My Son
The third point of view:
"How is it?" Fernandez asked the hacker he had employed to track down Cecil's location while he purposely delayed her on call.
"Nothing," The hacker shrugged with a resigned sigh, "They have an impenetrable firewall, I can't access her location at all,"
"What does that mean?" he was confused.
"It means that wherever this woman is, she's adequately protected. I'm sorry sir, but you might be dealing with a powerful figure here and I advise you to stop before it's too late," was his sincere suggestion.
"Powerful figure?" Fernandez chuckled, who could be powerful enough to accept that whore?
Who knows, she might be servicing an old man - Being a sugar baby doesn't seem that bad. However, whatever she did wasn't his business because he needed her. At the moment, she was the cure to this maddening curse; Fernandez had a strong feeling she was the one who would give him a male child - it was already guaranteed with the birth of Pedro. It was double assurance once he had Pedro and another son, hence, he needed her desperately.
"Why do you say so?" He asked the hacker.
"I've encountered this kind of firewall and I can say it belongs to one of the powerful gangs around,"
"What gang?" he asked out of curiosity.
Fernandez wasn't clueless about the existence of the mafia groups since he hires some of them to execute his dirty works. As the leader of the Fernandez family, he had to do a lot of things to keep the family business going - even if that means threatening or eliminating his competitors.
Which is why he needed Pedro. He can't gather all this wealth and it goes to his illegitimate daughters who would marry off one day and the son-in-law takes over or his unrelated son taking over everything - that would be his worst nightmare. Moreover, with how naive Cecil had been in her youthful age, he could already imagine how she trained up his son to be - a sissy probably.
Fernandez pinched the bridge of his nose in exhaustion, he would have to restructure the boy; his mentality, and character. This was too much work, but he had enough time.
"The Falcon Gang," was his reply.
"The Falcon Gang?" his eyes widened from surprise.
He had heard about the gang but had no relation with them since they were picky with the missions they accepted. Even the government feared them since they had knowledge and evidence of their skeletons in the wardrobe.
The mob would have been tagged a terrorist group with the kind of power they possessed if not for the fact they liked to remain low and carried out their missions in secret. Also, the president wasn't stupid to piss them off since they didn't want trouble - they just wanted to carry out their business peacefully.
No wonder Cecil had been very confident in speaking, Fernandez thought, nodding his head. She must feel so proud knowing she was protected.
A dark smile curved his mouth. He bet she was together with one of the lower members of the gang, he had plans of meeting the superiors of the Falcon Gang. He would offer them a lot of money in exchange for the woman. There was no way a shrewd businessman wouldn't take that.
Fernandez knew the rules of the game, money rules the world. He'd see how much Cecil would laugh when the same people she trusted hands her over to him on a platter of gold. He felt a twitch below and looked down to notice how hard he was. Fuck! He couldn't wait to push her down and bury his seeds inside of her - the seed that would bore him his second male child. The thought thrilled Fernandez, he couldn't wait to get started.
"I'll suggest you find another way to draw her out," the hacker told him.
"Don't worry, I know of a way already, '' he smiled.
"You do?"
Fernandez was just about to relate his plans to him when a knock sounded on his door and one of his men came in reluctantly.
"What is it?" he asked, not pleased with his interference.
The man spoke with caution, "I don't know if this would be of importance but I wanted to inform you anyway,"
Fernandez readjusted in his seat to receive the news, "What is it?"
"This is your son's cell phone. It seems to have fallen off of him during the attack," he handed the phone over to Fernandez who received it, examining it.
"So?"
"There has been a number constantly calling him ever since," the man reported.
"Really?" he checked the phone once more, "It's locked," he then turned to the hacker, "I believe you can do something about it,"
"Sure," He said, catching the phone Fernandez tossed to him and began to work on breaking the code. Since it was just an average password, it wasn't long before he hacked it and accessed the contents.
"My strong girlfriend," The hacker called out the contact name, "Seems to be his gal," he added, "And a cute one at that," he turned the computer so Fernandez could have a look at his son and Isabella together.
"Hmm," Fernandez said. Pedro was indeed his blood, they both shared the same interest in pretty women.
"Do you know who she is?" he asked.
"I'll run a facial recognition," the hacker said, his hands flying over the keyboard in fast strokes and minutes, pulled up her information,
"Isabella Spencer, Eighteen years of age and daughter of business Tycoon, Niklaus Spencer...." he glanced up at Fernandez, "Should I go on?"
"No," Fernandez halted him with a hand gesture, a smile on his face. Relationship with the Spencer's was a good one, his son was smart - it seems one
cannot outrun his blood.
Once Pedro returns to his side, he'd propose marriage to the Spencer's and engage the kids. Pedro had done the work already, he just had to solidify their relationship.
"The girl is someone we cannot touch but it'd be wise to have her followed, she might be able to lead us to where Pedro is," Fernandez suggested.
He then turned to the man that came in with the news, "Have my men follow them. If I know enough of puppy love, then I'm sure Pedro would surely try to contact her and both would meet. Then, we would strike."
It would be so much easier. Then, he'd see whether Cecil wouldn't come with him when he had his son - It would be like killing two birds with a stone.
Fernandez clapped his hand," With these two measures in place, I'm sure I can safely say the plan is ensured. Go ahead and do not fail me this time,"
"Alright, sir," The hacker packed his stuff and bowed before leaving, with the other man doing the same.
There was a smile on Fernandez's face, it wouldn't be long now. In fact, he could already feel the faint taste of victory on his lips.
Done with his plans, he exited his study and had made it down the stairs when he met his so-called wife waiting for him.
"What is it?" he asked, displeased by her presence. Ever since he had the idea of her cheating on him, she became a sore in his eyes.
"Aren't you coming for dinner?" she asked, studying his reaction.
"Why do you ask? Have you prepared to poison me so you could hand my property over to your son? Is that it?"
The woman was dumbfounded, extremely shocked by his comment. Was this really the man who had been so sweet to her when they first met? Why couldn't she see through him then? Had she been that blinded by love?
"How could you say that?" she expressed her shock by placing her hand on her chest, " You know I wouldn't do that to you!"
"Really?" he scoffed, "It's quite a pity I don't believe that. A woman who led me into believing her lover's son was mine for years wouldn't hesitate to cut my head off," Fernandez argued with her.
"And whose fault was that?!" She hissed out, "You intentionally approached me ….." she laughed at herself," I was just too blind to see that - blinded by stupid emotions - when all you wanted was the wealth and power my family offered!"
"So?" His brows raised.
"So?" Her heart broke, how could he say that to her, "If you had gotten what you wanted, you should have at least loved me! Was that too much to ask!"
"Are you done?" Fernandez rubbed the inside of his ear as if filtering dirt.
"How can you be so heartless?" She whispered.
"I don't care about your business with your lovers - you can go to them for attention. But I just want to inform you that my son would be reuniting with me soon, so don't you dare try anything stupid,"
"Your son?" the women went pale neither did Fernandez notice her hand going to her belly. How was she going to tell him she was pregnant with his baby when his interest was on this one already. Would he even believe her, after all, they had done it when he was drunk?
"Yes," He said to her, "Pedro would lead the company and all my resources in the future, so stay off him," he came closer, "It's not a warning but a threat,"
