Chapter 628 - Six Hundred And Twenty-eight: Jasmine Was Missing (2/2)

He looked around the square, there were thousands of people moving to and fro and Jasmine could be trapped amongst them, looking for him as well. How and where was he going to start looking?

But then, a lot of negative thoughts crept into his mind, what if Jasmine was kidnapped. What if the rebels sighted them and instead of killing them right away, resorted to kidnapping Jasmine to make his parents suffer and kill her off eventually?

”Oh my God!” Akim groaned, pulling tight at his strand. What was he going to do? What would he tell his parents? His mother had warned him sternly about the outside and yet he stubbornly, resorted to his own tactics.

Akim was having a panic attack yet he didn't care, everything was all his fault. He couldn't dare to think of the heartbreak and disappointment on his parent's faces - especially his mother - when he shared this news.

He brought out the phone in his pocket, at war on what to do. The sooner he called his parents, the earlier the better but he couldn't. Once his parents knew of the incident, they would surely know his secret route. But it's your sister that's missing! It's Jasmine!

Pedro threw his head back once more in frustration, hot tears on the tip of his lashes. He then turned to the side and there, as if God answered his prayers, he saw it, his sister being dragged away by someone. And no, his eyes were not playing tricks on him. It was indeed his sister, her royal highness, Jasmine, in her superwoman suit.

Hope surfaced in him while his heart began to pound loudly as he quickly went after that kidnapper.

It was a brisk walk at first, but the next, Akim broke into a sprint as he chased after the person who was still dragging his sister to God knows where - probably to hide her.

Soon, he caught up to them and grabbed the kidnapper by the arm, forcefully turning her to him only to discover it was a girl - a young girl to be precise.

”What the hell?!” The girl said as Akim grabbed her roughly.

”I should be the one asking that after you took my sister!” his anger only rose as he couldn't believe that such an innocent-looking face would have the heart to kidnap his sister.

”Brother?!” Jasmine hugged his waist at once.

”He's your brother?!” The strange girl looked at him with distaste, ”Didn't you say he was handsome and well-mannered?”

But Akim looked between the both of them in confusion, ”What's going on here?” he couldn't understand anymore. It almost seemed like the kidnapper and his sister were best friends.

Jasmine explained immediately, ”I can't really tell, brother, but all I knew was that while I was looking around with you, someone bumped into me and the next thing I knew, I was shoved far away from you by this swarm of people. By the time I could move out of the crowd, I couldn't find you! ”

She took a deep breath and continued, ”Do you know how terrifying that was?!”Jasmine cried out, ”I didn't know the way and I couldn't recognize anyone from the crowd. I was so alone and afraid. But that was until she found me,” She gestured to the strange girl.

Akim felt a sense of shame wash over him, to think that he had been rude and rough with the girl who rescued his sister. His parents didn't raise him that well, they would surely scold him if they knew of this incident.

If only he knew…
