Itâs me, Mr. Abel, I beg you to save me and my child, oh my godâ¦â
âWhatâs going on?â Abel was very anxious, âI could not reach you last time? Where are you right now?â
âMy daughter and I were kidnapped,â Kendra cried out, âThey found out about the person who has bought the child, and they are going to silence me foreverâ¦â
âTell me, where are you now?â
A monotonous sound came as a reply.
The line was dead now.
A film of cold sweat formed on Abelâs skin.
What kind of vile person would kidnap a woman as poor as Kendra?
Once they sold the child, they would kilt Kendra!
What kind of secret was Kendra hiding to the point that she was a target by some scheming people?
Abel quickly put down his phone and checked the origin of that phone number just now.
It was just an ordinary number.
âLuca!â Abel shouted.
âYes, Mr. Abel!â Luca appeared in front of Abel in no time.
He saw that Abel was no longer seated. His handsome face was now covered in sweat.
It made him think that maybe Abel would pass out because of starvation.
âMr. Abelâ¦â
However, Abel shoved a memo to him. Luca took that memo, feeling a little puzzled, and saw a string of phone numbers written on it.
âContact the base station now! You need to pinpoint the caller by using this number!â
âRoger, Mr. Abel.â
Luca did not venture further into this topic. He had a feeling that it must have something to do with Kendra.
He immediately called the base station while clutching the memo.
In just five minutes, he obtained the geographical location of the caller.
âMr. Abel,â Luca ran back to the CEOâs office, âThe caller called from Brookwater Village. Itâs a reservoir guard station.â
âGather everyone now. We will go there now!â
After more than two hours, two off-road vehicles arrived at a reservoir which was located in a secluded part of Brookwater Village.
From afar, they could spot a guard station that resembled a hut made of stones, and it was located next to the massive dam. They reckoned that it must be the guard station.
Abel instructed the driver, âTurn off the headlights. We need to get near without being conspicuous.â
âRoger, Mr. Abel,â The driver turned off the headlights like he was instructed to.
The two off-road vehicles slowly trudged through the terrain, approaching the station.
As they were almost in striking distance from the station, Abel gave another order, âStop the vehicle.â
âRoger, Mr. Abel,â The driver halted the vehicle.
Abel got off the vehicle, followed by Luca and some bodyguards.
The other vehicle rolled to a stop too. Bodyguards poured out of it and they were loading bullets into their weapons. They stealthily followed Abelâs footsteps.
They stopped short just a few feet away from the station. They squatted among the bushes to hide themselves.
There was a crying sound of a baby coming from the station.
âMr. Abel,â Luca whispered, âIt seems that Kendra and the girl are in there.â
âTwo of you, go,â Abel ordered, âGo check things out.â
âRoger.â
Luca waved his hand and a bodyguard stepped forward. The two of them traversed toward the station without making any sound.
In no time, Luca and that bodyguard returned.
âItâs confirmed that Kendra and the girl are in there,â Luca reported, âThere are two men who are drinking away in there as well.â
Abel bellowed, âMake sure not to kill anyone. Go!â
Luca sauntered into the compound of the station while holding a gun. He made sure not to make any noise.
Two bodyguards flanked him and positioned themselves next to two windows. They aimed their guns at the kidnappers in there.
Luca kicked the wooden door hard to force it to open. He roared, âStop moving!â
Before those kidnappers could react, two bullets had already hit them in their wrists. Two loud bangs echoed in the small space.
âOh my god!â
âSpare me!â
The two kidnappers immediately kneeled down on the ground.
Luca rushed in and ordered his two men to tie those guys up.
Finally, Abel made his appearance.
âMr. Abel!â Kendra immediately came over to him with her daughter in her embrace.
Abel opened his arms and caught the mother-and-daughter duo who were all shaken up.
âWhat happened?â He asked, âWhy did those guys kidnap you?â
âLetâs run now. We canât talk here,â Kendra answered hastily, âThere are still two more bad guys here, and they are going to return soonâ¦
