His soul-Chapter 559: Still hunting
With sweat dripping all over his body, Diego dragged his heavy steps. Continuing to run, looking for a hiding place made all his strength exhausted. Because his existence was successfully smelled by Massimo’s men scattered all over the place, Diego finally decided to rest for a while in the slums mixed with the homeless who lived side by side with rats.
"Damn Massimo, you really have ruined my life. If I’m destroyed, then all of you must be destroyed," Diego said with trembling lips, holding back the hunger that was tormenting him.
Continuing to look for a safe hiding place, he didn’t have time to eat, the bread he had previously bought at the minimarket he only had one bite before he had to run again because Massimo’s men managed to find him.
"Fuck... my stomach hurts so bad," Diego cursed in annoyance, always eating delicious, high-quality food his whole life making Diego’s stomach ache now with hunger.
Diego’s moans were heard by a homeless person who had sat before Diego, the homeless woman innocently handed Diego a thin, cold burger.
"Eat, it looks like you are very hungry," said the homeless woman with great empathy.
Diego slowly lifted his face, staring at the homeless woman who was holding out her hand to him. Diego’s lips watered at the sight of the burger that looked still worth eating, but his intention to take the burger was lost when he saw how dirty the body and hands of the middle-aged woman in front of him were.
Un thankfully, Diego smacked the homeless woman’s hand so violently that her hard-earned burger fell onto the cold, dirty asphalt. "Eat that disgusting food yourself, don’t offer it to me!" Diego rebuked harshly, with the remaining energy Diego finally decided to immediately leave that place.
The poor bum woman whose kindness was rejected by Diego immediately took back the burger that was previously rejected by Diego, with teary eyes the woman looked at Diego who was getting further away from her. Not wanting to waste her hard-earned food, the woman then opened the burger wrapper and ate it voraciously and gratefully.
Diego, who was now really hungry, finally ventured into a small motel, where prostitutes served with their customers mediocre pockets. Without taking off the hat he was using to cover his already very dirty face, Diego entered the motel and approached the reception desk which was manned by a burly young man watching porn on his cell phone.
"For one hour will get five percent off, two hours eight percent and for..."
"Two days, I want to stay in this place for two days." Diego immediately cut off the perverted receptionist’s words while handing a hundred dollar bill in front of him.
The receptionist, who was enjoying his hobby, immediately turned his attention to the money Diego gave him. A hundred dollars for a two-day stay in his small hotel was a very high price. Without thinking twice, the young man then gave a room key to Diego.
"Room 303, the only room available on the second floor," said the perverted receptionist quickly.
Diego nodded slowly. "Thank You."
"But you have to adapt to the noises that may continue to fill the floor," said the receptionist again.
Diego raised an eyebrow. "Sounds that might fill the floor?"
"You’ll find out soon enough," answered the burly young man quickly.
Because he was very tired, Diego decided to immediately go up to his room on the second floor. Once on the second floor, Diego’s sense of hearing immediately caught the sound of sighs echoing in the room right beside him. And not only that room, other rooms also sounded almost the same.
"Damn it, apparently this motel is a place for prostitutes to satisfy their customers," Diego growled irritated with red ears, although he really doesn’t like prostitutes but when he heard the sound of their sighs making love Diego was tempted. His desire to be a normal grown man rose.
With hurried steps, Diego immediately went to his room. One thing he wanted to do right now was take a shower, his body was already very smelly and uncomfortable. After locking his room with a double lock, Diego rushed into the bathroom. But for fear of someone breaking into his room, Diego decided to take his backpack full of money into the bathroom. As soon as he finished cleaning himself, Diego felt much better. Although his stomach was very hungry but the drowsiness that attacked him was so strong, Diego decided to take a nap. He had to recover his strength before going back to his plans.
Outside where Diego was currently staying, Massimo’s men were walking down the street with weapons well tucked away under their clothes. The prostitutes lining the streets tried to seduce the athletic bodyguards, but none of their temptations worked. The bodyguards remained focused on their work because they didn’t want to disappoint their master.
"What place is this?" asked Martin in a low, half-whispered voice, the stares of the women selling pleasure making him uncomfortable.
"This is one of the most famous prostitution areas in the city, Capt. So you shouldn’t be surprised if you see a lot of women lined up along the street like today," Darius answered quickly.
"Jesus.. it’s still noon, why are they looking for customers? It’s really not classy at all," said Pablo irritated, Pablo was annoyed after a prostitute touched his arm.
Darius smiled slightly at Pablo’s words. "They’re definitely not classy. So you shouldn’t be surprised."
"But how do you know this place so well, could it be that you’ve tasted one of the women in this place, huh?"
Darius immediately nudged Pablo firmly in the stomach. "Watch your words, you bastard. I wouldn’t be that stupid."
"Stop...why are you guys fighting alone?" Martin immediately interrupted Pablo and Darius’ small argument. "Our goal is to find Diego in this place, not to talk about the women."
Darius and Pablo immediately closed their lips tightly with their heads bowed, several other bodyguards laughed lightly seeing their two superiors being reprimanded by the captain who had been focusing on the path in front of them.
"Mr. Massimo’s time is limited, we must immediately find Diego and bring him back," Martin said firmly again. "That’s why I ask you to focus, not even discussing unimportant things."
Darius nodded slowly. "Are you sure Diego would come to a place like this, Capt? We both know how Diego’s life has been all along."
"It is absolutely impossible for Diego Alvarez to be in this place, but that was before all his crimes were exposed and at this time I am absolutely sure Diego will not choose a place to hide. I am very sure he is in one of the rooms in this place," Martin answered quietly without changing the intonation of his voice.
"You want us to go through the motel rooms in this area one by one, Capt?" fifteen bodyguards asked the same sentence.
Martin nodded quickly. "Yes, comb all the rooms in this place without exception."
"But what if the motel forbids us to..."
Darius’s words trailed off as Martin pulled out four hundred dollar bills.
"Use this money to ease your way, I’m sure the receptionists at the front will not refuse the money you bring."
Seeing the money that Martin took out from the small bag that had been attached to his body since last night, Darius and the others did not dare to argue with Martin’s words. Without waiting for orders, Darius then grabbed the money that was in Martin’s hand and immediately distributed it to Pablo and the others as their provisions to explore the dozens of cheap motels that were lined in front of them. After distributing all the money given by Martin fairly, Darius then invited Pablo and the others to immediately move, leaving Martin who was still standing in the middle of the road staring coldly at the tens of motels facing each other.
"Don’t call me Martin Carlo if I can’t drag you out of your hiding place, Diego."
Sanders International Hotel.
Arriving at the hotel, Selena and Rosa took Patricia to her room which was on the tenth floor. Even though Patricia was an unexpected guest, Selena and Rosa still provided good hotel service for her.
"Wow, the view of the city of Barcelona looks amazing from this place," said Patricia honestly, she was fascinated by the beauty of the city of Barcelona from the room where she is currently staying.
Rosa smiled proudly. "Of course, this hotel is one of the best in town."
Patricia immediately turned her face to look at Rosa who had just spoken. "Oh really?"
"Just look on the internet, just type Sanders Hotel in a search engine. You’ll see how good the reviews of this hotel are from the visitors," answered Rosa quickly, she purposely provoked Patricia to find out about her family. Because if Patricia finds out about the Sanders family hotel on the internet, she will automatically find a photo of her with Selena and Gina. Rosa, who was fed up with Patricia, wanted to immediately tell her who she really was.
But Selena, who was still not satisfied with playing with Patricia, grabbed Rosa’s arm, she gave her youngest sister a code not to end their game. Rosa, who understood the code given by Selena, just laughed loudly without a sound, Rosa knew that her sister still wanted to play with Patricia.
"No thanks," said Patricia lazily. "I’m not interested in looking at reviews of a hotel, seeing how luxurious and good the condition of this hotel is already makes me believe that this hotel is a good hotel."
Rosa who had hoped that Patricia would do what she had just instructed was irritated, she looked disappointed. And Selena laughed amused when she saw the look on Rosa’s face that looked disappointed.
"Why? Was there something wrong with what I said?" Patricia asked, confused when she saw Selena laughing. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞
Selena immediately waved her hand quickly. "No, it’s nothing. Don’t mind us. Oh yeah, after this what do you want to do?"
Patricia’s cheeks suddenly turned red. "I want to call Mr Massimo, Daddy wants to speak to him in person so I want to join him on a video call."
"What? You want to call Massimo?" cried Rosa unconsciously. "Aren’t you ashamed of his wife?" Too shocked, Rosa even let go of mentioning Massimo’s wife to Patricia, even though Massimo had previously asked her not to bring up Gina if she wasn’t in a pinch. Because Massimo wanted to introduce Gina directly to Patricia later that night when they ate together.
"W..what? Mr. Massimo is married? Isn’t he still single?" Patricia screamed loudly in disbelief, for the past few weeks she had been looking for Massimo there was no information that said Massimo was married. Her heart beat was also very fast at this time. Patricia suddenly remembered what her best friend had told her not to approach Massimo because Massimo already had someone who was being hidden from the public for her safety.
Selena smirked. "What do you think? Whether Massimo del Cano can marry or not."
