"Sir, I think we've found Ms. Morgan's whereabouts."

"Where is she?"

"After leaving the hospital yesterday, she took several different buses before ending up at a mansion."

Chandler rolled down his car window, catching every word of their conversation.

It was clear that Rachel wasn't there. The kidnappers had taken her.

Christopher turned at the sound behind him, his face faltering when he saw Chandler.

He clearly hadn't expected Chandler to find his villa so quickly. Christopher forced a smile despite his unease.
