Chapter 608: Finding Rachel - Part 1

Noah's eyes narrowed as he tried to discern the meaning behind his words. Even though Shane had not given a direct clue, his words had somewhat ignited suspicion in his mind. He flicked his hand and Ronnie and two other men from the group dragged Shane with them.         

    

"Remember this, Noah. You will get what you deserve and soon, you will lose everything you have gained." Shane shouted.     

Unable to tolerate the man's disgusting voice and unbearable words, Ronnie smacked him hard on his head while he pressed on his neck and Shane fainted immediately. The two men then dragged Shane towards one of the free cars while Ronnie looked on. After getting a nod of approval from his Boss, he took the passenger seat and the car drove away, leaving Noah to deal with the matter at hand.     

'What did he mean by his last words?' Noah frowned as he took another car while Kaito occupied the driver seat. He was so lost in his thoughts that he forgot to instruct his men what to do next.     

But being proficient as they were, the men got to work immediately. Even though Noah had not given out any orders to them, they knew what to do next. While more than half among them followed Noah to assist him to handle Jared, the remaining took care of bodies lying before them.     

Kaito observed his Boss who was lost in thoughts while he proceeded towards the direction they were initially going in. Though he now worked for Joshua, to him Noah was still was his Boss and he treated him the same way as he did before.     

"Umm, Boss." Even though he was reluctant to disturb him, he still had to for he had something important to remind him.     

"Yes, Ronnie?" Noah replied absent-mindedly and it was only after the words left his mouth that he realized what he had done.     

"I am sorry, Kaito. Were you saying something?" Noah frowned and chided him for his mistake. Since he was long accustomed to Ronnie driving him around everywhere, he could not help making the error.     

"Boss, we have not informed Master Martin and Doctor Davis about this matter. They might be waiting for your call."     

"Ahh yes. How could I forget about them? Let me call them while you follow the path Aria and Ivy are taking."     

"Yes, Sir." Kaito nodded and checked for all the cars the two girls might have driven but all he got was nothing. He could not detect any other car other than the ones following him and his face scrunched up immediately.     

"Boss, bad news."      

Noah was yet to call Joshua when Kaito's voice interrupted him and he stared at him in confusion.     

"I presume Madam has taken her own car this time instead of yours."     

Kaito did not have to explain further for Noah understood the meaning behind his right away. Every car of his or the ones belonging to the other two men were all equipped with trackers, making it easier to find their location when the situation arose.      

But unfortunately for them, Aria had chosen to drive her own car that did not have any tracker in it and just the thought of her careless and inconsiderate actions was enough to rile him up all the more. He cursed under his breath and quickly placed a call to Joshua who at that moment was trying to trace Rachel's whereabouts.     

"Noah, dammit. What the fuck is happening today?" Joshua roared from the other side and Noah had to move his phone away from his ear so as to not end up being deaf.     

"I am telling you I am incensed right now and I don't know who I will end up killing." He continued, not caring how loud and irritating his voice was.      

The day had been anything but good and they were facing many life-threatening and dreadful situations one after the other. All the four girls who mattered to him were now in danger and it now fell on the men to save them.     

Although they knew where Jared and Maggie were right now and even Aria and Ivy, it was Rachel's whereabouts they were yet to find out. Joshua had tried all possible places, all of Jared's warehouses and properties he could find, and even Shane's house to search for Rachel.     

But unfortunately for him, it had been a vain attempt. There were no traces of Rachel's whatsoever. She even did not have her phone with her, making it all the more difficult for him to find her.     

"If I catch hold of that bastard, I am going to rip him apart and feed to my dogs." Joshua continued to yell and Noah pressed his forehead. His head started to throb lightly. But he ignored it and replied to Joshua, stopping him eventually from shouting any further.     

"Did you find Rachel?"     

"Not yet. I am on it. How many people do I have to keep an eye on? While there is Maggie and Jared with Aria and Ivy right behind them and there is you and your men. Now I even have to find Rachel. I am going crazy with all this shit."     

Joshua was going mad with all the frustration and Noah pitied him even though he too was going through the same sort of emotions.         

    

"Where are Ian and Daniel? Are they with you?"     

"Ian is on his way while Daniel is already here and he is contacting all the men he had allocated to protect Rachel. How was Shane even able to kidnap Rachel with so many people protecting her in secret?"     

Joshua exclaimed as he continued to type a string of codes on his laptop while he kept glancing at another laptop beside him.     

"Jo, it was Shane who had come to her. I presume she left with him on her own accord. Who would have known that Shane would turn out to be a traitor?"     

"Did you find out anything from Shane? Did he speak a word?" Joshua queried. Even though all he had heard was some muffled sounds when Ronnie had called him secretly, he could still make out what had transpired between Noah and Shane and given his friend's character, it was impossible for him to surrender that to in front of a man like Shane.     

Shane must have received the short end of the stick and his plan would have been completely foiled by now.     

"I did find something but I am unable to decode the meaning behind his words."     

"What did he tell you?"     

"He gloated that I would never be able to find Rachel and even if I do, I would then be close to my death. He told me that I was so close yet so far."     

As soon as Joshua heard Noah, he stopped typing and he stared at his phone in shock.     

"What did you say at the end, Noah? Repeat it."     

Noah frowned at his request. Nevertheless, he repeated his words for him. "So close yet so far."     

"Noah, I think I might know where Rachel is."      

"Where?" Noah's eyes gleamed as soon as he heard Joshua and he clenched his fist tight.     

"If my intuitions are, Rachel must be somewhere close to you. Otherwise, Shane would not have said those words."
