Chapter 233: [Bonus Chapter]Poker clan
Back inside the suite, both Gwen nor Alice didn’t woke up even after an hour passed by.
As soon as Ace informed them about the girls, Noah and Karl rushed to the spot and quickly brought them back to the resort.
An emergency doctor was called to check on their condition and when he said that they were out of danger and were just unconscious because of the heavy blow they received on their head, that was when the boys relaxed.
"We should’ve seen this coming" Noah mumbled sitting next to Alice while his eyes fixed on her pale face.
"We had our men around still they managed to break free of the tight security. I just hope Ashley is safe or else it would be a huge problem" Karl averted his eyes from Gwen and looked at Noah sharing a worried glance.
They both knew Tristan wasn’t in the right state, he was only keeping up because he wanted Ashley in front of him safe. He didn’t want to take a reckless step that would lead his enemies to harm his wife.
He was waiting to find Ashley first and then take care of the people who tried to lay their dirty hands on his woman.
Noah looked at Alice for some time before he, let go of her hand that he held all this time and stood up.
"You stay with them. I will check on Tristan" he said and left the room.

Back inside the surveillance room, everything turn quiet and one could only hear the ragged breathing of the man who kneeled in front of Tristan.
Warden felt his blood run dry as he watched Tristan’s eyes grow darker with every passing second. He could see the hollowness in them that ran deeper than the night. It felt like a pitch-black abyss that was eagerly waiting to swallow him.
He didn’t know whom he was talking about. He was the only one who came to do his job, following the couples to get some spicy news about the couples that would boost the viewership of their news channel, until yesterday, he caught someone talking about Ashley being Tristan’s wife.
He followed that man secretly, just to hear him clearly, but lost track when the man changed his route from him.
’Did he mistake my following for something else’ Warden thought as his face crumpled thinking about the obvious. His eyes widen when the realization struck in and he shook his head," I don’t know who that man was. I just followed him because he told someone about Ashley being your wife and not just your girlfriend. A-and it would be her they would kidnap"
Tristan’s face turned ugly the moment words escape his mouth.
"What else did you hear" Tristan reached out his hand and pulled Warden by his collar.
Warden was shocked by Tristan’s quick change and his face turned pale as he stared into his deadpan eyes. He could tell that Tristan was irked by his words and it would be better that he spill everything he was able to hear.
"I couldn’t h-hear clearly as the man walked faster but... but one thing I heard him say was that after kidnapping Ashley they would take her to one of their secret warehouses" Warden spilled everything he was able to grasp until he followed the man before he lost him.
Tristan let go of Warden’s collar and turned at Ace," Get me the locations of every warehouse within ten minutes Ace" just when he was done speaking Noah entered the room and found Warden kneeling next to Tristan’s feet.
"What is doing here?" Noah asked and watched Ace walk past him before greeting him and stepping out of the room.
Tristan didn’t answer Noah and just averted his gaze at the figure of another man who was also stalking them secretly.
Clutching his palm into a fist, Tristan felt his blood boil as veins popped out from his arms. Everyone inside the room could feel the drop in temperature and found it hard to maintain their composure.
While Tristan was busy tormenting himself mentally, Noah took a step ahead, trying to console his friend. He knew Tristan was on the verge of losing control and would be at peace until Ashley stood in front of him.
"Tristan..."Noah called his name and sense him stiff.
"No... Noah not now. I don’t want anyone fucking consoling me" Tristan said gritting his teeth, as he understood what Noah was trying to do.
Clutching his shoulder a little firmly, Noah watched him drop his head. His eyes then turned to the screen in front of them as he scanned the figure walking in a loop and said," Isn’t he a member of the Poker clan, Marcus"
Tristan snapped open his eyes and looked at Noah in confusion and then looked at the figure further zooming his face.
"Prepare our men" Tristan instructed and walked out of the room along with Noah and his few guards.

Warehouse
"Umm..." stirring out of her unconscious state Ashley slowly opened her eyes and found herself in a different place.
"Ah... what is this place" she mumbled and tried to move her hand but felt restricted.
Blinking her eyes she tried to clear her vision before she look down at her hands and found them tied to the chair’s armrest.
Lifting her head she suddenly felt a sharp pain passing through the nape of her neck to her head and she whined," Ah.." the blow she received was strong, with the person remaining unconscious for a few hours.
She tried to suppress the pain and looked around when the memories inside the forest came rushing through her mind and she gasp.
"Gwen, Alice... where are they," she said looking for her friends who were present with her inside the forest. But now that she scanned her eyes around she couldn’t find them anywhere and that was when she realized that she was kidnapped.
Her entire body stilled and a sudden feeling of fear creep into her heart and she closed her eyes before she mumbled one name," Tristan.."
