Chapter 609: Finding Rachel - Part 2
"Rachel must be somewhere around you, Noah," Joshua stated his opinion, and Daniel who was close by stopped talking for a moment. He gave him a questioning look, asking him silently what the meaning behind his words was, only to find Joshua nodding at him lightly. He silently promised to explain everything later and focused on Noah first.
"Do you think so too? Where could Rachel be and how could she be around me?" Noah pondered. "I am currently on this isolated road and how could she be here. I think...." He stopped speaking as soon as a notion hit and his eyes widened immediately.
"Oh my God!!" He exclaimed in disbelief. "Kaito, stop the car." He almost shouted in fear.
His sudden yell startled not only the poor Japanese man, even Joshua too moved back on the couch in fright.
"What happened? Did Jared's men attack you again?" Joshua frowned as soon as the words left his mouth while Daniel just stared at him, waiting for him to end his call give him updates about Rachel.
He had been having dinner with his parents, finally mustering all his courage to reveal his relationship with Rachel to them. Their feelings for each other were almost unbreakable and he wanted to take the next step and take her to meet his parents. He wanted to propose to her and marry her.
But all his plans had evaporated as soon as he received the dreadful call from Joshua. It was as though someone had poured a bucket of cold water over him, waking him up from his blissful dream. He was still in disbelief to think that Rachel was kidnapped and nobody knew where she was.
At once, he had left the dinner in the middle, shocking his parents at his strange behavior. He did not even state his reasons for his behavior before he rushed out in a hurry, utterly distressed to find Rachel missing. Only he knew how difficult it was to stay sane and not lose his calm all this time while he waited for any information about his dear girl.
He had driven at an insane speed, jumping all the signals to reach Noah's mansion within less than fifteen minutes. He did not even care about the number of times the camera had flashed at him, ready to bear all the fines and cases against him. All he wanted was to find Rachel and make sure she was safe and unscathed.
Now that they had some information about her whereabouts, Daniel could not help be curious about it and he perched beside Joshua in hopes of finding out what they had dug up.
On finding Daniel right beside him, Joshua pitied the poor man. While Aria and Ivy were putting themselves in danger as every second passed by, Rachel was already in danger. And the man behind all of these was their eternal enemy, Jared.
He patted lightly on Daniel's back and pressed on the handsfree, allowing Daniel too to listen to their conversation.
"Shane told me that Rachel is around me. And now I am in an isolated and far away place. If she is right around me, don't you think her to be in one of the cars or maybe we could find some clue about her?"
Even though he did not explicitly explain his thoughts, both Joshua and Daniel understood the meaning behind his words and they stared at each other in shock.
"Kaito, open the trunk and instruct the others too to check their cars," Noah instructed and rushed out of the car to check the trunk of the car only to find it empty.
On seeing their Boss run out of the car in a hurry, the men behind him too stopped with them wondering what had happened now. They then heard Kaito convey their Boss' instructions and they started checking the cars only to find them empty. They even sent messages to the others who had stayed back to clear the dead bodies at the junction behind.
One by one, all the men reported back the same result and Noah's face fell in dismay. Now all that remained was for Ronnie to report back and he suddenly started to have an inkling that it was in his car they would find some clue about Rachel.
"Please, please, please let us find something about Rachel. Anything." Noah prayed while he waited for Ronnie or anybody else who was driving the car to call him.
Fortunately for him, he received a call quicker than he had thought and he answered it right away.
"Ronnie, did you find anything?" Noah did not allow Ronnie to speak and questioned him the moment he heard his voice from the other side.
"No, Boss. I did not find anything." Ronnie's voice was filled with helplessness and Noah the tire of his car in dismay.
"Dammit," He cursed under his breath and his face darkened in fury. "I am going to kill that bastard." He roared and the intensity in his voice and darkness in his eyes made all his men take a step back in fear. They had never their Boss this incensed before and they could not help be frightened about what lay ahead for them even though they were not the reason for his fury.
Gritting his teeth, he called Joshua again and conveyed the failure of his search to him.
"Jo, keep searching. I will ask Ronnie to deal with Shane and force out the information from him. I need to stop Aria and Ivy before he they do something foolish and end up in Jared's hands. Jared already knows about Aria and Ivy's relationship and given his despicable nature, he would only be...."
Noah did not even have to continue for all the men listening to him understood what he trying to say. Just the thought of Jared laying hands on the three women sent a mad burst of fury in them. Even Noah's men who were listening to him could not help the anger rising in them.
Since the time they had started to work under Noah's command, the one thing expected of them was to respect women. Now that four women were in danger, and all four of them mattered to their Boss, how could they not be furious?
