Chapter 610: Rescuing Rachel - Part 1

Noah pressed his forehead as Kaito continued to drive towards the location Joshua was guiding him towards. Since it was impossible for him to track Aria's car himself, he could only rely on Joshua who at that moment was multi-tasking, focusing on a lot of matters at the same time with Daniel helping him.         

    

Joshua retrieved the CCTV footage from Rachel's company and started to view it carefully, observing all that had happened to Rachel since the time Shane had approached her. Though he could not make out the reason why Shane had approached her, it did not come out as a surprise to him that Rachel trusted him and accompanied him out of her cabin.     

He then switched to the video of the parking lot of her company and just as he had expected, she had got inside Shane's car. Joshua started to track Shane's car, trying to find out where he had taken Rachel, only to find him switching cars in the middle.     

Though he could not see clearly, he could make out Rachel's silhouette and the girl seemed to be unconscious. Two men helped her into the car while they nodded at Shane before they drove away.     

Joshua did not even have the time to react for the man beside him kicked the table in anger, startling him completely.     

Daniel gritted his teeth as he glared at the laptop screen, wishing to force himself inside and save his dear girl from her abductors. The poor did not even seem to be awake to know what was happening to her and Daniel clenched his fists, unable to control his fury anymore.     

Joshua gave Daniel a worried look. Though he had known him only recently, from all the conversations they had had, he had come to understand his character and the man was just like Ian. It was not that easy to annoy the two men and never had he seen Daniel in a bad mood, unlike Ian who he was well versed with.     

Now that he saw Daniel losing calm on seeing his beloved being abducted by their enemies, he discerned the depth of his feelings for Rachel. Joshua could not stop the smile from spreading on his face even the situation did not call for it.     

Joshua was genuinely happy for Rachel. She had found a gem of a person who knew how to cherish her and love her with his whole heart. Taking a deep breath, he continued to follow the video, this time focusing on the car that had Rachel in it.     

"Calm down, Daniel. We will find Rachel for sure. Please be calm until then. You can take all your anger on the men responsible for this." Joshua attempted to calm the man down even though he knew that it would not work.     

Who in their sane mind would sit still and watch their beloved being taken away by a bunch of scoundrels? Though Joshua could not understand what Daniel was going through, he was still in a similar situation. While Rachel was already in Jared's hands, his girl, Ivy was almost falling into the same danger even though there were chances of getting out of it unscathed. Yet, he could not ignore the fear that consumed his mind and heart, waiting for the seconds to pass and hoping for Noah to bring Ivy back safe and secure.     

"We first need to find Rachel." He reminded the furious man and Daniel snapped out of his anger and focused on the video that still kept playing.     

"Rachel better be unscathed. Otherwise, I do not know what I will do them." Daniel seethed and Joshua patted his back.      

The intense anger and the bloodthirst from the man beside him surprised him. But he did not resent it. In fact, he was only happy that Daniel felt this way and was willing to avenge his girlfriend for all that she had gone through. Though the man was not as capable as Joshua himself and anybody among the three friends, his desire to protect Rachel was enough for Joshua to give a nod to his relationship.     

Joshua did not speak a word about it but they did hear Ian's voice from the entrance.     

"What the fuck is happening today? I am going to kill that bastard Jared." He bellowed in anger.     

Not only had Jared targetted his hospital and had been successful in releasing the virus. Even though he was yet to find out if any people had been affected by it, the damage had been done.     

"You are only one left out to tell this to me. Join the line. Everyone here wants to kill him." Joshua responded without looking up from his laptop. He had already heard what had happened at the hospital, the reason why Ian was this vexed.     

"Have you found Rachel? What about the other girls?"     

"I am tracking Rachel right now and the girls are..." Joshua glanced at his other laptop and he cursed under his breath. "Dammit, the girls are quite near to where Jared is and if my calculations are right, they will reach him within ten minutes."     

"What about Noah? How far away is he from them?" Ian frowned, unable to control the anxiousness.      

"Damn far. He will need at least another thirty minutes. How the heck did the girls reach Jared this quickly?" Joshua shouted in anger and banged his hand on his laptop in frustration. Fortunately for him, it did not break from the sheer force he had exerted on it.     

"Noah will have to hurry up to catch up with them. I just hope Aria and Maggie will be able to hold Jared off until help arrives. It will be great if they can even kill him. That would be the best outcome." Ian commented, his frown deepening in worry.     

"Joshua, take a look at this." Daniel pointed to the video with a frown and Joshua immediately returned his attention to the car that had Rachel, fast-forwarding it in the meanwhile.      

The car stopped in front of an abandoned warehouse and the three men got out of the car. But there were no signs of Rachel whatsoever.
