Ian grabbed the painting under the bed and violently smashed it on the floor, splitting it in half.
He shoved it to the fireplace and watched it as it was slowly consumed by fire.
He had asked for updates regarding Brandon's whereabouts but still his subordinates didn't give him any positive reports.
They have located his mansion but still there's no sign of him.
News of hunting down the artist T.K in the black market also circulated.
They thought he must've swindled the Lee family's only heir that's why he's being hunted down.
Ian slumped down the couch and looked at Tia.
He felt a sharp pain in his chest thinking about how scared she must've been that she had fainted.
He promised that he will keep her safe but he still failed to do so.
He hates the fact that he couldn't protect her like he was supposed to do.

Meanwhile in an inconspicuous old abandoned building, a girl dressed in a maid outfit was hanged upside down.
Her hands were tied at the back of her hands and her mouth was covered by a white cloth.
She tried to squirmed away, swaying and wobbling like a cocoon.
She doesn't remember how did she end up in that building.
All she remember was after following the orders given to her, she was walking in the hallway then she lose her consciousness.
She saw a pair of well polished shoes underneath her.
She slowly trailed it upwards, her eyes went wide from shock when she saw who it was.
It was the bespectacled man holding a pair of sharp scalpel.
She was so terrified that tears started flowing in her eyes.
She didn't know why, all she did was followed the orders and had been a loyal servant.
The bespectacled man slowly walked towards her, he slowly raised his arm.
A glint of light flashes on the tip of the scalpel, the girl knew what would happened next so she closed her eyes in anticipation.
She was so scared that she had started to wet herself.
She was shaking in fear and the bespectacled man watched her in delight.
"Tut, tut you're too obedient for your own good."
He said then he slashed the girls throat. Blood started spurting out of her as the scalpel cut through her skin.
