LOUIS POV
"One of the bodyguards has woken up," the side informed me.
"I'll meet with him tonight I announced.
As soon as my work shift ended I went straight to the hospital and towards the rooms where
I glanced in the direction Jasmine's room had been, as I made my way.
Upon entering the room I was met with the bodyguard, Leon, seated up in the hospital bed. He was talking to his wife and child who sat beside the bed. They looked at me as I entered.
"I'll see you in a bit honey," Leo said to his wife. They then left the room so I could talk to him.
"Are you alright, Leon?" I asked the bodyguard as I sat in the seat his wife had sat in.
"Yes, just a little sore from my injuries he told me.
"I apologize for failing to protect Ms. Towers, sir," he said to me.
"I don't blame you for that," I said to him this assailant was an unknown force with unpredictable power. "Have you talked to the police?"
"Yes, earlier this afternoon" he told me.
"Now, tell me what happened in that underground parking lot?" I asked him.
"We parked the car in there and as we made our way to the elevator we were suddenly ambushed by a group of masked men in all black."
He then went on to explain everything that all the bodyguards did to protect Jasmine and Tony.
"…By the end of it, I was one of the last lines of defence for Ms. Towers and her son. We told her to find help by going up an emergency staircase. Unfortunately, I became powerless when they sprayed us with that poison powder. I fell to the floor and one of the men went up the emergency stairs Jasmie
The last thing I remember seeing was the masked man exiting the emergency staircase with the boy over his shoulders as he left the scene.
This confirmed that they had in fact taken Tony. I internally let out a sigh. This whole ambush seemed well planned ahead of time. They were aware of Jasmine's movements, they sabotaged the cameras, when they ambushed them they made sure to split the bodyguards up so they could attack them in smaller groups before finally isolating Jasmine and Tony.
I had been wondering all this time whether, had I been there with Jasmine could have prevented Tony from being taken? I wasn't so sure now. It seems like they would have found a way regardless.
"Did you see any of their faces? What vehicle did they come in? Anything at all that could be useful?" I asked.
