Chapter 67
Andre's POV
"Andre, what should we do now, are Su and Emily in danger? Do you know where they are being held right now?"
Kevin asked me anxiously. He simply couldn't calm down and think seriously about the problem as he looked at the pictures sent by the kidnappers on my phone.
I frowned and thought.
I wasn't sure what the purpose of these kidnappers was. Rarely would any kidnapper use the kidnapped person's cell phone to send text messages or make phone calls to their relatives? Because it was very easy to reveal their location, no one knew if the kidnapped person had a location system installed on their phone.
"Kevin, you take this surveillance video to find a private detective to investigate the background of these kidnappers, I think this matter is not that complicated. It's just that Susan is injured now, and we need to find her and Emily as soon as possible."
I watched Kevin's back as he hurriedly left, staring at the photos on my phone in quiet thought. If these kidnappers didn't intentionally provoke me and Kevin with the text messages they sent from Emily's phone, then the people who kidnapped Emily and Susan wouldn't be too capable.
The injury to the corner of Susan's mouth should be the most serious injury they can cause and more excessive things this group of kidnappers simply will not or dare to do. These people are likely to be very randomly organized to carry out this kidnapping, but the video is very clear in their purpose as if to kidnap Emily and Susan is not a random selection of people.
Who was the person who hired the kidnappers?
"Andre, I got it!"
No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn't guess who the mastermind of this kidnapping was. The people who could hurt or wanted to hurt Emily were now all staying abroad, living under my surveillance with no chance or condition to return to the country.
Only one person has now quietly returned to the country, but Fiona spent all her savings abroad there is no way she could have the money to hire kidnappers to kidnap Emily.
Kevin suddenly returned to the surveillance room at this time, holding a copy of the information in his hand. There are only two possibilities to find out the identity background of those kidnappers with such speed, this kidnapping gang is famous or just a homeless person without any skills.
I hope the information Kevin brought was the second one, so we can proceed with my plan to get Emily and Susan out safely and make sure they won't be harmed at all.
"Well? What are the identities of the kidnappers?"
"The man with the mask covering himself very tightly we can't know his identity, but those tall men are just vagrants who like to rob supermarkets or pedestrians for money in poor areas and live on the government dole every day. They didn't even have any weapons in their hands that could hurt people to use, because those things were too expensive for them to afford."
I was relieved by Kevin's words, I was now pretty sure that these kidnappers were just trying to demand a large sum of money and escape without Emily and Susan after Kevin and I learned that Emily and Susan had been kidnapped and were too out of control to think properly and calmly!
The person who hired them must not have had a smart plan either, or they wouldn't have chosen such a bunch of losers as kidnappers. They wouldn't even have any advanced equipment to monitor Kevin and me to prevent us from finding the police to arrest them. Everything was planned according to the hired men's guesses, and Kevin and I had plenty of time and a safe enough way to get Emily and Susan out.
"Kevin, you go to the police now, and it's best to bring some of your family's bodyguards with you. But don't let the reporters or other people know about this, we still need to prevent the kidnappers from doing something excessive to Emily and Susan after they know we called the police."
"Don't worry, Andre, everything will be done according to your plan."
I watched as Kevin once again eagerly ran out of the surveillance room and took out his cell phone to call Nathan. I certainly wasn't going to install a location system on Emily's phone, even after she was already pregnant. I knew Emily wouldn't like the feeling of being watched, and I didn't want me to turn into the controlling man she hated one day.
But the cell phone Emily is now using is the latest product from a company Nathan's family invested in and was given to Emily as a gift by Nathan when he knew she was pregnant. The phone's radio signal cannot be blocked, even if it is not in use, but as long as it is not turned off or thrown away it can be scouted for location.
The professional employees who make cell phones can use this to determine the exact location of the user of the phone, which will make it easier for Kevin and me to find Emily and Susan
"Nathan, I'm sorry to bother you at lunchtime. But now I have a very important thing that I need your help with, please bring the staff responsible for the company's newest cell phone tracking detection and their equipment to my villa immediately, Emily is missing, but her cell phone is still being used by the kidnapper is the one you gave her, we need to track the radio signal emitted from the cell phone to find her."
Nathan hung up after confirming with me the address of my villa, I knew he would go and arrange what I had instructed him to do because he and Emily were now friends. I backed up the video from the surveillance room about Emily's kidnapping to my phone and rushed back to the villa as fast as I could.
Kevin and Nathan were already waiting inside the villa with the police and bodyguards and the employees responsible for tracking Emily's exact location. I handed the surveillance video from my phone to the police and then went to watch those employees operate. The professional equipment in their hands quickly tracked the location of the signal about the phone.
I took a look at the location, it was a suburban area, where there was a lot of poverty and there were homeless people or stores with smashed glass and abandoned factories and warehouses. We packed up our things and were ready to go to rescue Emily and Susan when my phone received another text message from the kidnappers on Emily's phone.
"Bring $50 million to this address and prepare a ticket to X. I will make sure your fiancée is safe. You come alone, if you dare to call the police, I will kill her!"
The kidnapper didn't seem to know that Kevin and I were staying with the police right now, which proved that they didn't have much power, just a bunch of bums that could easily be dealt with. The location he gave was not the location of the phone on the map, but it was not far away, and I chose to agree to his request to keep the kidnappers from becoming suspicious.
I brought $50 million with me so that I could still use the money to get Emily and Susan out in case of an accident. Too many people would likely attract the kidnapper's attention, so I told Nathan to take his staff back to the office and wait for news from Kevin and me.
Nathan also understood that this matter does not allow any little mistake to happen, otherwise it may harm Emily and Susan's life. So he did not refute my request and left again in a hurry with his staff and equipment. Before getting into the car, Nathan told me to call him if I needed anything, and that he would do his best to help us rescue Emily and Susan.
I agreed and took Kevin and the police and bodyguards to Emily's location. Kevin and I split into two groups, I took the money to meet with the hired man and capture him. Kevin was in charge of leading the men quietly to Emily and Susan's warehouse to wait for the next move.
"You're finally here, Mr. Vincent." "Toby?
"Toby? How come it's you?!"
The person who came to meet me was very thin, and he was not as recognized with the same mask as in the video as well as the hat. But because I was now at a distance from him, I recognized this man as Emily's father Toby through those familiar eyes.
Emily is his daughter, and he threatened me for money by kidnapping his daughter!
"Toby, why are you doing this? Emily is your daughter, she is not your enemy, why did you kidnap her? Where is she staying now?"
My heart was very angry, I have never seen a father like Toby. I questioned him loudly, not only to distract Toby but also because I was confused inside!
"Of course, I know that Emily is my daughter, so I just kidnapped her and didn't hurt her. And as long as you, Mr. Vincent, give me the $50 million and the tickets, I will let Emily and her friends go immediately. I knew Emily was pregnant, so I took very good care of her, and a crazy woman who joined us halfway tried to hurt Emily but was stopped by the people I brought."
