Chapter 1073 I Hope She’ll Be Safe and Sound

Imperium found the kidnappers' identities—three brothers. The next step was to contact the kidnappers and try to find their location by tracing the call. An unknown emotion filled Joseph’s eyes. “There’s a mastermind behind these kidnappers. These three must believe whatever that person told them.” Frowning in confusion, Chloe asked, "Who's the person behind them?" Joseph whispered, "Your father." Callum had taken these kidnappers in despite their many crimes because they had made some contributions. It had been many years since then, so Joseph was not sure what the current situation was. Chloe asked in shock, "Was this Callum's order?" "Unlikely." Joseph got back into the car with Jasper and Chloe and instructed the driver, "Head to Docwood." Regardless, their vacation had to be canceled. On their way home, Joseph contacted Callum and asked about the kidnappers in a roundabout way. Callum answered absent-mindedly, "I let Ken handle them as he needs help while learning his way." Joseph was unsurprised by that answer. When he was about to hang up, Callum added, "By the way, I looked into Xavia. Yes, Ken got some airport staff to pull tricks. I’ve already given him an earful and have arranged for more people to keep a lookout for her." Joseph sneered. He felt like telling Callum that Kenneth had done more than that, but he did not want to say anything before obtaining conclusive evidence. * Back at Docwood, while Noah was on the phone with the kidnappers, Vince was trying his best to locate them. "I can't get 14 million dollars in such a short time. Can you give me two days?" Noah sounded calm and tender as if he were a harmless person. The kidnapper on the line laughed savagely. He knew that Noah was good at hiding his fierceness and cruelty. "Stop messing around. The Sullivans have the money even if you don't. Just leave the money near the second dustbin under the bridge at East Shore Street. I'll get someone to meet you. Don't try any tricks or you'll lose both the money and the woman." Noah frowned and was about to say something, but the kidnapper had already hung up. Vince anxiously asked a man who had his head lowered to a computer, “Did you find them?" The man pointed at the blinking red dot on the screen. "I managed to triangulate the location, but you’ll have to search the area to find the exact location." "Okay, I'll arrange for some people to go there now." Vince patted the man's shoulders. Vince, who was using crutches, gathered a few men and set off though he had difficulty getting about. He looked like a bold man charging forward for love. Noah glanced at Vince with an unreadable expression. "Hang on. I'll get someone to bring the money." This baffled Vince. "Why? Do you really intend to pay them?" "It's a safety net in case they notice your men. They'll let down their guard if we provide the money. Also, Zoelle is one of the few friends I have. I hope she'll be safe and sound." Vince nodded and accepted Noah's suggestion as he found it logical. Based on his colleague’s hints, Vince located Zoelle at an abandoned house. "Travis, she's so pretty and curvy." "Pipe down and stop your nonsense.” "I didn't mean it. I'm a new man now and won't touch her."
