Chapter 50: Ch.49/ Everything Is Messed Up
:-
"Don't you think it's quite late since Anu has gone to the washroom?" I voice out my thoughts to Olivia who also gives me a worried look.
"Yes, I am thinking the same. It's already twenty minutes and I don't think she would need so much time." Olivia replies while rubbing Advira's back who is asking for Anupama.
"Let me call her." I say and dial Anupama's number. But to my utter surprise, she doesn't pick up my call. I redial her number and the same thing happens.
"She is not answering my call, Oli." I reply in panic.
"Oh no, let's go to the washroom and see why she is not answering the call." Olivia says and I nod my head in response. I tell the four guards to follow us and we all rush towards the washroom. But we halt when we find the guard who has come with Anupama laying unconscious on the floor. I check him for any injury and notice that there is blood coming out of his head making me scared.
"Anupama is not here but her purse and phone are here." Olivia says coming out of the washroom with Anupama's handbag and mobile.
"Ma'am someone has hit him behind the head and if we don't take him to the hospital he can lose his life." One of the guards remarks making me curse under my breath.
"We need to find Anu as soon as possible before anything bad happens." Olivia says with fear lacing her tone.
"Look we all need to calm down first. Because we can not think clearly if we rush things. You take him to the hospital and you two come with me. We need to look for Anupama." I order the guards.
"Olivia you have to take Advira to Bianchi mansion with you. I will try to find Anupama and if I can't get her then I will call the police for help." I tell but Olivia shakes her head.
"No, I am not leaving without Anupama. I have promised Samuel that I will take care of Anupama. So, I will stay with you and help you find Anu." She replies.
"Try to understand my point, Oli. One of us need to take Advira home because we don't want her to get fussy over not seeing her mother. Please listen to me and go home. I will keep you updated." I plead to her in which she hesitantly nods her head. She gets into the elevator with Advira who has fallen asleep and I along with the guards start to search for Anupama. But much to my horror after half an hour of searching, we don't find any trace of her. So, I dial Subho's number who receive my call after two rings.
"Missing me already?" Subho asks teasingly.
"Subho!" I cry holding the phone close to my ear but can not say anything.
"Jasmine, what's wrong? Why are you crying?" He asks worriedly.
"Anu is missing." I reply trying to control my tears but they just don't stop.
"WHAT?" He shouts over the phone.
"Please come here, Subho. I am feeling scared." I let out.
"Where are you now?" He asks.
"I am at the entrance of the Beverly Center mall." I answer and he replies that he will be here in fifteen minutes.
"Ma'am we need to inform the boss about Mrs. Bianchi's kidnapping." One of the guards tells me.
"Just wait till my husband comes here." I reply. Sure enough, Subho reaches the mall in fifteen minutes later, I run to him and throw my arms around his neck while uncontrollable tears fall from my eyes.
"Shhh, calm down Jasmine. We will find our Anu. Don't cry, babe." Subho says while rubbing my back gently.
"It's my fault that Anu is missing. I should have gone with her but I stayed behind." I say with hiccups.
"Look at me." He says and wipes my tears with the pads of his thumbs.
"This is not the time to see who is at the fault, our main priority right now is to find Anupama. We don't know what happened to her and Mr. Bianchi is also not here. So, please control yourself and tell me everything from the start." He lets out making me nod my head. I tell him everything from the start when we come to the mall, about our shopping, eating lunch and then our plan to watch a movie. I also describe when Anu told us that she needed to go to the washroom and one of the guards went with her. But when after twenty minutes she didn't come back we get there to look for her. However, she was not there and the guard was injured.
"Subho I think we should call the police so that they can help us to find Anu." I suggest but he shakes his head.
"No, we can't do this because this will cause chaos because paparazzi always try to find loopholes in Mr. Bianchi's personal life. It can alert whoever has taken Anu. Let me call Mr. Bianchi first and inform him about the situation." By saying this he dials Mr. Bianchi's number but the call is picked up by Bianca.
"Hmm, Bianca we have a problem in here so can you please give the phone to Mr. Bianchi?" Subho asks over the phone but suddenly his face pales making me more worried. I take the phone from his hand before asking Bianca what she has told Subho.
"Someone has poisoned Alessandro so we are currently in the hospital." Bianca replies with sorrow clear in her voice. I stumble back not believing what I have just heard.
"This can't be happening Bianca. Mr. Bianchi needs to come back or." I stop in the mid-sentence feeling a lump forming in my throat.

Bianca's POV:-
"Or what Jasmine? What is happening there?" I ask while Samuel gives me a concerning look.
"Actually, we have come to the mall but now we can not find Anupama who went to the washroom one hour before." Jasmine replies with a frightened tone. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
"Oh my God! Did you search for her?" I ask.
"Yes, we have searched everywhere but didn't find anything. I am really scared for her and also for Mr. Bianchi. Both of them are in danger and we don't even know if it is a coincidence or someone's vicious plan against them." She answers back.
"I think I have an idea of who can be behind the blunder. However, currently we need to think about Alessandro and Anupama's well-being." I reply.
"How is Mr. Bianchi doing?" She asks.
"The medical team in here is trying their best to cure Alessandro but the doctor has informed us that the poison is incurable as they don't know if it has any antidote or not. The poison has already spread in Alessandro's left lung. So, they are not sure if they can help Alessandro to get better. They have given us 48 hours and if by then Alessandro doesn't gain consciousness, they will put him in a
medically induced coma for his betterment." I let out while wiping the tears that are streaming down my face.
"What are we supposed to do now? I don't even know what I will be telling Advira who was constantly asking for her mum-mum." She says before the line goes silent but soon Subhodeep's voice hears from the other side.
"Bianca, you and Samuel take care of Mr. Bianchi. I will call Marco and Uncle Gabriel to see if they can help us in this matter. Jasmine wanted to take help from the police but knowing Mr. Bianchi's reputation among the paparazzi I know that if by any chance they get to know about the situation with Anupama, they won't keep silent and drag the matter unnecessarily." Subhodeep says and I am relieved to know that he knows how to tackle the situation well.
"Thank you Subhodeep. Please keep me updated about Anupama's whereabouts and I will inform you everything about Alessandro too." I reply and after some more talking, I cut the call. I heave a sigh before looking through the ICU door at the unconscious Alessandro who is hooked up with numerous wires all over his chest and stomach. I feel a hand resting over my shoulder making me turn around to look at Samuel who has a look of shame and self-loathing on his face. I hug him tightly before burying my face in his chest while he wraps his arms around me securely.
"Boss has to wake up Bi or I will not be able to forgive myself for not keeping him safe." He mumbles in my hair.
"Alessandro is a fighter, bro. There is no way that some poison can wipe out his existence. Also, he needs to wake up soon because if he doesn't then he will lose Anupama." I reply sadly.
"I have heard what Mr. and Mrs. Ganguly told you and believe me sis, when boss wakes up and learns that someone has taken his wife hostage, all hell will break loose." He says making me nod my head because Alessandro will kill everyone who is responsible for Anupama's abducting.

Anupama's POV:-
I am trying to open my eyes for some time but still, I am feeling like I need more sleep because of how much my head is spinning. The smell around me is also so disgusting that it is making me nauseous. Suddenly cold water thrown over my face which makes me startle and cough badly because of the sudden action. I shake my head to clear my face of the water and slowly open my eyes when I hear laughter around me.
However, much to my horror I recognize the faces of Sebastian and Samantha White along with... Linda? No, this can't be happening because I clearly remember that we have given her to the police custody then how come she is standing in front of me. I try to stand up but I realize that my hands and feet are bound with chains which has locks in them. I squirm to get out of the chains but I get disappointed which makes Linda laugh loudly before she grips my hair in a fist while making me look at her.
"You can not get out of our hands Anupama. You are now in our mercy and I will be damn if I let you go so easily." She snarl making me clench my fist in anger.
"Why am I here?" I ask with a stern expression but inside I am trying hard to control my fear.
"You are here because we want you to be here. You are our trump card to win against Alessandro." Sebastian replies with a cruel smirk.
"He will not spare you when he gets to know that I am here without my wish. Let me go or you won't like the outcome." I scream at them but they only laugh at my face. I have non-stop tears falling from my eyes by the panic growing in the pit of my stomach. I have never felt this much terror before but I can not let them see me because that will only make them think that they have power over me.
"We already knew that Alessandro would cause trouble and that's why we have eliminated him first." Linda says making my head snaps towards her while my eyes widen in raw fear.
"What are you talking about? What have you done to my husband?" I ask with a frightened tone.
"Oh, it's nothing serious. I have just paid someone to put a little poison in his wine and that has him completely knocked out in the hospital right now." Samantha says as if it's a simple thing for her to do.
"No, you are lying. My Alessandro can't die, do you hear me he can not die." I yell because I believe that if I am alive then my Alessandro is alive too.
"I didn't say that he is dead but also his death is not very far away." Samantha replies while typing something on her phone before showing me a video of a pale looking Alessandro who has many wires attached to his chest along with an oxygen mask over his nose. I feel someone has stabbed me in my chest as I still can't believe that what I am seeing is true.
"How can you be so cruel? You say that you love him then how can you harm the person you love?" I ask while trying to get out of chains but my every effort is getting futile.
"My Love for him died the moment I have learned about your pregnancy." Samantha lets out with hatred but I don't care about her hatred. What I fear that how come she knows about my pregnancy? I want to curl up in a ball and hide from her to save my unborn baby. I don't want the repeat of the past or I will die if anything happens to my baby.
"What? Cat got your tongue?" Linda mocks making me shut my eyes in fear, fear of losing my husband and child.
"I have been keeping tabs on Alessandro and everyone close to him so that I can know about every little thing. Linda was my first weapon and she used to tell me every thing. But then you had to catch her red-handed and exile her from the mansion. However, that only made things better for me as I
finally decided to come here to get my man. After that I have tried everything to get his attention but no, he doesn't give a fuck about anyone other than his wife. So, I decided to destroy you and to do that I asked Sebastian to take help from his friend. To our luck his friend accepted to help us and offered a deal to your company. But again Alessandro saved you from our clutch after learning about the false deal by threatening the owner of the company." Samantha lets out and my eyes well up with more tears upon realizing that Alessandro is always protecting me from harm without my knowledge.
"However, this time we won't be having any problem with Alessandro because a half-dead person can't do anything to us. He has destroyed my drugs and human-trafficking business by notifying everything to the higher authority so I am going to sell his wife to teach him a lesson." Sebastian says making my eyes widen in horror.
"But before doing that I am going to kill your unborn child in your womb. Because if I can't have Alessandro's baby then I won't be letting you have his baby too. Also, I don't think our clients will like to fuck a fat bitch like you." Samantha remarks and the other two laugh loudly as if she has said a joke. I badly want to cover my ears because it's becoming unbearable to listen anymore to their horrible talks. But the chains around my wrists are restraining me to do that.
"You are going to stay here till the doctor come here to get that thing out of your stomach and then we will be taking you to a place where no one can find you. Till then enjoy your stay, bye-bye." Sebastian says and the three of them get out of the room leaving me all alone. I drop my head in defeat and sob loudly feeling helpless.
"Please Alessandro come soon. I know that nothing can stop you from saving me. So, please don't be late or I don't know what they will do to our little bean. I am scared and our baby too. Please I need you." I say aloud in hope that somehow Alessandro will hear my pleading and come through the door to save me. I know what I am expecting seems impossible but I am not going to lose hope till my last breath. Because I have faith in God and my bond with Alessandro that he can't die leaving me alone in the hands of these monsters. So, he is going to come here and save me like he has promised to do.
