Chapter 143: The rules of legality

Alan saw Aria's GPS traveling too fast away from the city. But It was their bad luck, they were moving towards Vince Fang's Private mansion. Even if Alan gets late, Vince could reach sooner. But till that Aria must be safe.

Alan threw a wad of cash he had exchanged at the airport to the biker and took his bike forcefully throwing his car key at him. He knew he couldn't drive the car faster in the city traffic hence he geared up and drove fast running off many traffic signals.

Aria was feeling her head too heavy to move, the pain made her hard to open her eyes when she heard the music.

She was in the car truck.

She checked her dress pocket for her mobile. She sent her live location to Alan for the safer side if GPS wasn't working.

She felt her head too painful and drifted off to unconscious again. Since she was forcing her to be awake, she was conscious and unconscious frequently.

Seeing her motionless, a man carried her inside the car garage and he smoked outside with others.

When Aria got back her consciousness, she used up all her energy to push the grease can on the ground to spill out all grease.

She bumped into many things and fell down numerous times searching for anything which could start the fire. After finding the lighter, she waited if Alan enters but seeing unknown two men enter, she was about to fire to create a fire barrier to keep them away but those men didn't notice grease and fell on it and the grease caught the fire.

Aria didn't want to kill anybody even for self-defense and her tears rolled down seeing them fall back on grease as the fire spread completely blocking the path and they caught the fire too.

There weren't any flammable things on her side so she knew fire wouldn't spread but the smoke made her cough and fell unconscious again.

In less than five minutes, Vince reached to see the smoke coming out of the garage.

His intimidating aura would keep anybody away from him. The genteel look he had around Aria was nowhere to be seen.

The local gang knew him and started trembling and fell on knees seeing the gun in his hand. They knew well, Vince hardly touches weapons, if he holds, then he wouldn't leave it without killing.

"Boss... Boss..."

'Snap'

He shot right on his center of the forehead who tried to speak. 

It didn't stop there. Vince personally shot each and everyone by the time his team shouted, "Boss, Miss is on that side of the fire."

He had just finished, Alan who had reached and heard, slide between fire quicker and reached Aria who had got conscious back.

"Alan..."

Her feeble sound fell on his ear when he hugged her before she fell unconscious again.

Vince's men quickly extinguished the fire to bring them out and they left in a chopper which had reached after the location confirmed.

Vince didn't want to take the chance of those men holding Aria as hostage hence he had reached by road first. 

Nobody had time to talk about anything and everything was happening swiftly without wasting time.

Aria was taken to the hospital which was under the Fang family business. Vince first time saw Alan's every panic and worrying side including the weaker side. 

Aria again got conscious and heard Alan, "Aria... Aria, Nothing will happen to you. Hang in there with me..."

Aria tried to hug him back but she didn't have the energy. She hummed and spoke with a lot of difficulties, "You... ... there... ... will... ...fine."

Alan could only make out those words before she drifted off again. Even though they heard incoherent, Vince and Alan both understood what she said, 'You are there, I will be fine.' 

Alan quickly carried her towards the operation theatre and stared at the door where the red light was on.

Vince didn't know how to calm anyone so he just sat.

Clenching his fist, Alan turned to Vince, "Investigated?"

"Ellem Brith."

Alan strode out as he called the unknown number he had got a call, "I'm coming to your place. Where are you?"

Vince cued his men to follow Alan. The latter got the address and hopped on the car Vince's subordinate drove.

He just spoke the address and sat emotionlessly throughout the journey. The other two men in the car felt hard to breathe in the car under Alan's arduous air.

Alan snatched the handgun from a man's back where he was hiding it and entered the apartment.

Ellem had no idea about how Alan Morgan really was. She didn't know the real identity of Vince Fan. She didn't know Aria Cooper wasn't just any normal girl.

She was delusional enough to think that finally, Alan noticed her knowing Aria left him alone. So she didn't think twice to give her apartment address.

She had just wanted her brother to scare Aria but looking at her young and beautiful, his friend's gang took Aria away

Alan pressed on calling bell. Ellem excitedly opened, "Al..."

Alan's hand clutched her neck tight pinning her on the wall as soon as his eyes fell on her. The face which always stayed emotionless most of the time had murderous intent. If a piercing glare could cut the flesh, she would be cut into millions of pieces by then.

Vince's men quickly closed the door as one of them called his men to take care of security cameras.

Alan's voice was reminded of death call to Ellem who was struggling to breathe, "Were you thinking I will let you off for planning against my girl?"

He threw her off aside without mercy when she almost lost her breath and was falling unconscious.

Vince's men had thought that Vince was heartless and coldblooded but realized his friend was no less than him seeing his terrorizing manner.

Ellem tried to catch her breath coughing rapidly but Alan's shiny black leather shoes kicked her without an ounce of pity. That made her intensively cough out blood.

He pointed the gun at her temple who widened her eyes. She always thought Alan was a sensitive and considerate man. She never in her dreams thought Alan to be stout-hearted and scary.

"Alan, let me go, Alan... You will go to prison if you kill me, it's not legal, Alan..." Ellem played her last card in her jittery voice.

"Heh?" Alan raised his brow, "You are right. Aria shouldn't marry a murderer. I will not kill you." Alan sat back on the sofa.

Ellem breathed a sigh of relief thinking she was safe. Vince's men were confused without understanding what he was up to.

When Isla Turner and Toby Lewis hurt Aria, Alan had made sure one to beg on the roads for her daily life and another one was sentenced to death.

He had no time to play by the rules of legality in a different country so how was he going to deal with Ellem who sent Aria to the bunch of beasts to savor her?
