Meanwhile, Luciana was 'helped' by the hotel waitress to her car. Nobody paid her attention as she was taken away by them.
Even she was taken away in a car and in the middle, she was shifted into a van.

On the other hand…
Ella was petrified to see the empty room. They entered the room and checked for everything. Joe and Evelynn were disappointed. They decided to continue looking after her.
"Why don't we go check the security room?" Evelynn asked. Joe nodded.
Ella's mind stopped working the moment her eyes saw the clean room. She saw her son going inside this room. Then he left a jacket on the couch and changed into a different one as a glass of wine dropped on his blazer. Even though he attended the party again, his blazer shall be there. But it was no where to be found.
Her heart started to pound hardly. There were some beads on the floor. Her fear of something unimaginable happening was getting best of her. She picked the beads. Just then her eyes went on to the bracelet which was near the door.
"Stop!" Ella said as she walked towards them.
Evelyn and Joe stopped as they turned their gaze towards her. They both understood that she was looking at something at the place they stood. Following her line of sight, they looked at the thing near their foot.
"This is hers!" Joe exclaimed when he noticed the broken bracelet.
"This is hers?" Evelynn asked she asked with a shaky voice. She knew it's hers, she just want to hear a no from him.
"It is! This is her favorite bracelet. She never takes it off. No matter what," Joe said still finding hard to see the bracelet.
Ella started searching in the room vehemently. She found nothing but an unscrewed waterbottle. She took it and smelled it lightly. Ella realized what happened with her son.
And the presence of Luciana's bracelet in the room, sent chills in her spine. What if something happened to both of them.
"Stop panicking. I know what to do," Ella said.
Picking her phone she called carl and callum to the room they were in.
"Mom," Callum greeted.
"My Lady," Carl greeted.
"Luciana and Oscar are missing. Close the gates. Let the guests enjoy their party. Call a musician or an artist and add a surprising event in the banquet. I don't want anybody to go out until I know who is responsible for this!" Ella said as she tried to suppress her anger.
"Carl, you will take care of that," Ella said. Carl nodded his head and left to take care of things.
"Gather all guards," Ella gave out the orders.
"Wait, first call the guards who were standing outside," Ella asked something felt off with them earlier.
Callum went out to call them, but he noticed that they were already trying to run away.
"Mom, they are running away!" Callum said shocked.
"What do you want me to do!? Go run after them! Gather others!" Ella barked orders on him.
Callum ran after them. She went to her penthouse in tow with Joe and Evelynn. She took her bluetooth and connected emergency call with ever gaurd.
"Everyone! I need attention," she said with a serious tone.
Even Guards were surprised at the situation. It's always their Master who connects with them and gives orders. But Ella connecting to them and asking their attention was something serious.
Every guard showed their attention to her saying their code words.
"Since, everyone are here. I will tell things. Your Master Oscar and the pianist Luciana disappeared. We marked out two guards, who were pretending to be our guards. They are on run now. So…Whoever in the ground floor, help Callum. He is chasing those two intruders. I need them alive and in a position to to speak. As for how bring them to me, I don't care," she said in a chilly voice which sent shivers in everyone's spine.
Guards who were on ground floor, took on a run to find those people.
"Remember, don't disturb the guests," She added.
She heard a series of yes from her men.
"Others, gather in the cellar in two minutes," Ella said.
"Yes, Lady!" she heard the yes's again.
"Lady Ella, We can do some tasks too," Evelynn said not being able to sit idly when her friend missing.
She felt awed when Ella continued to do things calmly, organized way and still managing things in a productive way. But she wants to do something on her own too. She can't just sit idly.
"Then take two guards with you and interrogate the staff," Ella said
She immediately called two more guards to her penthouse and then asked them to accompany them to interrogate the staff.
Ella went to the parking basement, and met the guards.
When the guards saw Ella walking towards them, they bowed to her.
"Stop with these. Now, tell me when was the last time you saw Oscar?" she directly went to the point.
Many gave different answers but two guards answers stood out.
"Master was drunk heavily and was carried by a waiter. He claimed that you asked him to take him to his penthouse and allow nobody to meet," A guard siad.
Even Ella believed it for a second. Because these were the words she used to tell them when Oscar was drunk. It's just that him drinking to the point of turning unconscious made her suspicious.
"And he asked me to keep those ladies away who were trying to 'volunteer' to 'help' master," he added with a slight cough.
Ella brushed it off. Because most of the women were after her son for money but not for him or his son. The ladies who were trying to get closer to her son were already rejected by her even before they could reach him.
"My Lady, the same or different waiter asked me to bring the hangover soup for master personally and asked not to involve others. When I went to give the soup to master, a cleaner said that there is no one inside the penthouse. I thought Master left on his own, didn't expect…" his words trailed.
