Daryl went back to his room to get his mobile phone and call Kenzie. She should have reached home by now but she was nowhere to be seen.
He had missed a call from her so he immediately returned the call but it was not reachable. Darryl frowned and noticed the unread message from her.
His heart was beating fast as he read Kennzie's message. He tried to dial Kenzie's number again while running out of the house towards his car. Then he called Kimmy's number.
"Where are you? I can't reach Kenzie's phone!" Daryl barked.
"Sir we have a problem. There was an accident on the road so we missed Missy's car but I'm already on my way to the place she went to meet Harry."Dary's heart was slamming against his chest. He could feel something was wrong. Why would Kimmy's bodyguards who were always tailing her suddenly meet with an accident?
He then dialed the driver's number who fortunately answered.
"Where is Kenzie?" he hissed.
"I-I don't know. Someone knocked me out when I was about to enter the cafe to follow madam and I woke up just now. I'm inside the cafe where she was and according to some waiters here, she lost consciousness, and the man she was with rushed her to the hospital together with another man."
"What?!" Daryl yelled. He could not believe what was happening!
"She's not here sir and I don't know which hospital they took her to. I'm looking at the CCTV footage now. I will send a copy to you right away," Daryl heard. He felt his world crumbling down and his hand trembled as he made calls. He remained inside the car unmoving.
He clenched his fist and gritted his teeth when his mobile phone rang."Are you looking for your wife? I bet you tried to call my number several times but I'm not stupid enough to get tracked easily. I guess you know by now that I have your dearest wife. Let's do an exchange Daryl, and no one will get hurt.
Give me my mother and I will return your beautiful wife back to you, unscathed. You see… Time is running out so you better hurry up because I can't guarantee that she won't be hurt if you drag things further…"
"You bastard!" Daryl snarled. The veins in his neck and temples popped out in fury. He was already planning a million ways to torture and kill Harry in his mind.
"Don't you dare touch Kenzie or I will make sure that your mother never sees the light Harry," Daryl grunted? He went out of the car and signaled one of his men to trace the signal of the call. All he needed to do was prolong the conversation.
"Do you need to do this Harry? Have you stooped so low that you thought of doing something like this? Abducting a weak woman and pregnant woman just because you can't fight me?" Daryl mocked. He added the pregnant thing, hoping Harry would be considerate enough not to hurt his wife.
Daryl was dying of worry and guilt that Kenzie had to experience getting kidnapped just because of his family issues. This was why he chose to leave them and lead a quiet life. But no matter what, he could not just let them kill his father for their selfishness! Should he just close his eyes and let them be?
"Just let this slide once Daryl. I will leave the country with my mother and you will not see us ever again. Consider us dead after that Daryl. Let my mother out and bring her to me alone. I'm not trying to threaten you Daryl, but if you want to see your wife alive then you better listen to me!"
Daryl was about to say more to prolong the conversation but Harry had already cut the call. Then he received a message from Harry that he would call him to tell where and when to meet as soon as his mother was freed.
Daryl looked at the man working on the computer who said, "I got the location…"
As usual, he asked the military police to help him handle the situation at hand. They have trusted men they could call anytime, elite soldiers, and experts who have experience handling such rescue operations.
He was listening intently to their plan to rescue his wife as soon as possible. While they were preparing, Daryl left for a while to see Karen in the detention center. He did not know why but his instincts urged him to see that woman. Maybe because he felt that he would get some clues and hear some important details from Karen as to who was helping Harry in Kenzie's abduction.
Karen had a mocking grin as soon as she saw him enter the room.
"Seeing that look on your face… I can tell that blood is thicker than water for my son. I guess he heeded my advice and contacted the people I asked him to contact. This is what you get for coming back, Daryl. If you had just stayed put and minded your own business then none of this would have happened.
Do you know that those men my son is involved with now are criminals with no mercy? The longer your wife stays there… Well, I don't think I need to remind you of the consequences… I expect to get out of here today so hurry up boy. I would not delay and waste time if I were you."
Daryl stayed silent and just glared at Karen who seemed to be enjoying his misery. He was trying hard to keep his anger under control but his glare was like deadly arrows shooting directly at Karen.
"Trying to kill me with your glare I see… You are still just as arrogant even though your wife is now in danger. If you cared about your wife, you should let me go and beg me to free her, don't you think?
Oh and one more thing... I think it's time for you to know this since our paths will definitely never cross again. The police said that your mother died in an accident because she was under the influence of alcohol and drugs right? Do you really believe that she would do something like that and put her life in danger?" Karen added, laughing like a lunatic.
