Kidnapped
Author’s Pov;
” Take me to Ruby’s School” Nathan told his driver who nodded and reversed immediately.
He was just coming back from the airport and wanted to surprise her in school.
It’s bene two freaking weeks and he has missed her.
He wasn’t sure he would, but he did.

Ruby’s face had panic and fear in them as they car overtook and showed up in front of them, blocking their path.
Her heart beat accelerated as she shook in fear.
She started praying fervently in her heart, but it was all just in vain.
Within a twinkle of an eye, she was dragged away from her car to the other car by hefty men.
She could neither scream nor struggled. They were so strong and huge.
She wondered if that’s how her life is gonna end.
Her driver shivered in panic, looking lost and confused.
The highway was empty and quiet and there were few passerbys and therefore, few witnesses.
” We are here” Nathan’s driver announced.
Nathan brought up his heart from his phone to see it was true.
” Go in and call her out” he instructed his driver who left the car right away.
Meanwhile, Ruby’s driver has drive to the nearest police station close to him and reported, but as usual they told him to wait for 24 hours before they can do anything, stating it might not even be serious as he was making it seem.
This infuriated the driver who almost caused a scene there.
The severity of the matter was being overlooked and taken for granted.
“She left already” Nathan’s driver came back to inform him.
He nodded. He should have known but he has hoped otherwise.
” Alright then” he the driver who was just getting into the car.

” What do you mean she hasn’t gotten home? What about her driver?” Nathan screamed at Ella who he was questioning.
How come she wasn’t home yet when he was just returning form her school? It didn’t make any sense to him.
She has absolutely no where to go, so…ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
” I think her driver is here” Ella told her paranoid brother.
He left her and hurried outside to meet the driver.
” Help sir. I… I don’t know what happened. I don’t even know who they are, please” the driver said shakily, getting in his knees.
” What are you talking about? Pull yourself together and talk properly” Nathan snapped, his heartbeat accelerating.
” I… I think shes being abducted sir” the driver informed, bis gaze on the floor.
” What?!” the gasp escape from Ella’s mouth before she could stop it.
Nathan asked the driver to explain everything as it has halo and he did.
The tension was high right now and the whole sitting room was as quiet as a graveyard.
He has just returned from his business trip. ans couldn’t believe this is what he’s coming to see.
He hated himself for not being to protect her.
He has a lot of enemies and should know better.
He’s pretty sure it was the handiwork of one of them.
” Hello… I need your help” Nathan said into the phone, walking up the stairs.

The mansion was put in a state of emergency as a result of this incident.
Nothing like that has ever happened before and the thought that it could be somewhere from within the family scared everyone.
Everyone was warned to be at alert and not let their guard down.
It has been exactly 24 hours and the police were already working on it.
The school has been informed also about this incident and it took a great tool on Diane who still found it hard to believe.
She blamed the damn mathematics competition because she felt that was the reason her friend was going home by that time.
” Still no progress?” Nathan asked the man he was working with directly on the case.
He has asked them to keep him posted but still, he always called every minute.
He was worried and that was the only thing he could do at that time.
There has been few progress so far and he wasn’t happy with the way things are moving.
He was able to block any article from leaking out and reaching out to the wars for outsiders.
He also failed to tell her Dad because he felt that would make matters worse.
It was better to deal with this on his won and.
He would find her by all means and he won’t drop there, he’s gonna go after those trying to hurt and make them pay for not just the things they did to her, but the things the didn’t so as well.
He’s going to make them pay and worse still or they dare lay a finger on her.

* We have the girl, ma’am ” the boss of the gang said into the phone.
They just arrived at the uncompleted building they normally use for their operations.
Ruby was still sedated so he thought it was best to let the person that sent them know they have her with them.
” Good. Just make sure you do as you’re told. I’ll send the rest payments later” the lady’s voice said into the voice and this brought smiles to boss face.
He ended the call and instructed his boys to take Ruby to another empty room.
They did and dumped her on the dirty floor.
She was still unconscious so they planned on dealing with her later.

” It seems the last place her phone was spotted was the place she was abducted. Can you tell us a bit more about these guys?” one of the police officers asked Ruby’s driver.
He has gone to the station with Nathan.
He explained everything just as he has seen that day.
” Dis you see anything.. like the plate number of the car or any other thing?” the man asked him and he shook his head.
” There was no plate number and it was a mini bus. I think it was rented if I’m to guess correctly” the driver explained.
The man doing the questioning heaved deeply.
” Then… I think we have to wait for further hint. Maybe they would call for ransom” he let our slowly, and this didn’t sit well with Nathan.
