Chapter 406 - Four Hundred And Six: Miguel Doesn\'t Know What\'s Coming For Him.?

The third point of view:

Nadia didn\'t talk to Sakuzi. The man wasn\'t mourning but boiling in rage. As expected of Angela, the enchantress, even when she-Nadia- felt she was winning, Angela always found a way of weaving her way back into his heart. Nadia was a strong woman, but right now she was weak, it was obvious she had been fighting a losing battle all along.

Because she had been the one to stay at Sakuzi\'s side at the end, Nadia thought she had emerged victoriously. But It was an illusion. Angela won. What was the use of being at a man\'s side if you didn\'t have his heart?

She couldn\'t help but wonder, would Sakuzi grieve her this much if she had been the one that died. Nadia laughed wryly mentally, this was low of her. She was jealous of a dead woman?

The acrid smell of cigarettes burned her nose and her gaze drifted to Sakuzi who had been chain-smoking for over an hour. Right now, he had another stick in his mouth as he cupped his hand around the flame, sucking life into the cigarette.

Although the smoke brought tears to her eyes since she was sitting right next to him, Nadia didn\'t dare to stop him. Sakuzi\'s face was stony and undecipherable, which meant he was most erratic at this moment.

Sakuzi was not a voracious smoker, although he was once, he stopped the instant he got Reina. Hence this was his way of taking things off his mind and she couldn\'t tell if he\'d stop after this or smoke on. It was all up to him.

"Who did it?" It was just one question from Sakuzi but it carried a heavy weight and everyone was afraid to answer.

Reina and Niklaus seated at a side didn\'t say a thing. They had come to the base for the meeting which her father had called. Reina didn\'t even remark about her father smoking, she didn\'t care about that at this moment, she was still numb to everything - not the catatonic kind of withdrawal, just nothing. Emptiness.

Niklaus watched his wife with concern in his eyes, she had not reacted much even when Kim came to her home to get her kid, Tommy last night. The Reina he knew wouldn\'t let Kim\'s filthy legs step at her place, although it was obvious the reason she conceded this time.

But he was still worried, his wife looked all okay which wasn\'t okay. She hardly reconciled with her mother only to have her snatched away by the cold hands of death. A normal person would want to cry, be resentful, and furious, but she was calm. Too calm to be real. It was almost like the calm before the storm and he didn\'t like it one bit.

He knew very well that suppressed feelings were dangerous, plus the fact he couldn\'t read her in this situation. What was on her mind? It couldn\'t be something good. He had been worried she would become catatonic, it seems like he had a whole problem to look out for - apatheism

"We did some investigation," Emerald was the one who dared to speak.

The others had no clue or were simply scared to speak in case they mistakenly said something that pissed off Sakuzi. The bloodlust the man was emitting was thick, choking everyone in the room.

"Miguel\'s men ordered the attack," He answered.

"Who\'s Miguel?" Sakuzi had an indifferent look where a frown should have been.

"Gerald\'s younger brother,"

"Wait a minute," Reina interrupted, "Gerald, the one who attacked me when I was Maya? That Gerald?"

"Yes, that Gerald. His brother Miguel must have been abroad when we cleaned up the gang which is why we missed him," The giant explained.

"And now, he\'s back to avenge the death of his brother," Niklaus figured out, "Reina must have been the target at the hospital but Angela saw the attacker on time and took the bullet in her place,"

"He knows how much you love your daughter so he wants to hurt you where it hurts the most - just like you took his brother," Emerald contributed.

But then, Miguel successfully hurt Sakuzi in one of the places it hurt the most. Although Angela was certain to die and he had made peace with that, it would have been a painless and peaceful death for her instead of being ridden with bullets. Now, this was an insult to his face; they killed his first love.

"It wasn\'t until this incident that I realized that Miguel has been secretly trying to resurrect his brother\'s gang. Also, there was something strange about his men we caught,"

"What is it?" Niklaus asked.

"The shooter had many chances of escaping yet he intentionally fell into our hands," Emerald laid bare his finding.

"He\'s taunting me," said Sakuzi. His voice was rigid and the smoke from the cigarette held in between his fingers swirled around his expression, giving him a mysterious atmosphere," Miguel wants me to come get him, "

"We\'d get him then, " Reina decided determinedly.

Niklaus wanted to say something but decided against it. He would let her be active in the meeting, but there was no way in hell he\'s letting her near that madman especially when she\'s a target.

"But that would be after we return?Angela to earth, let the woman rest in peace before getting our hands bloody - show respect to the dead," Nadia said, earning a look of surprise from Sakuzi.

Unknown to Sakuzi, that simple emotion from him warmed Nadia\'s heart. The man was so stiff and aloof since he received the news of Angela\'s death that it seemed winter came early. So that surprised face showed her he was still capable of feelings.

Sakuzi didn\'t mean to hurt her, but Nadia wouldn\'t understand him right now, rather she would become jealous - that was women\'s nature - so he chose to remain detached - that way he wouldn\'t be bothered.

But when Nadia made that comment, his view of her changed. She was trying to understand him? Sakuzi exhaled deeply and tossed the cigarette into the ashtray - he hated smoking anyway - and took Nadia\'s hands.

He saw the way her face filled with surprise at the movement and then she smiled at him. He smiled back too. Maybe it was better to draw strength from her than to wallow in grief.

Although Sakuzi said he felt nothing for Angela, that was a blatant lie, one-third of his heart would always be open for her - that was the power of first love.

However, he would open up the rest of his heart for Nadia to occupy now. It was time to move on - which he would do after bringing Angela\'s murderers to the same fate. It was blood for blood. The land would not judge him: he had killed Gerald for touching his daughter. Protecting one another was the Sakuzi Clan code. They would live and kill for that.

Miguel doesn\'t know what\'s coming for him.
