CHAPTER 144Nolan made his way to the district officer's office, having confirmed the particular station handling the case. Filing a report and going through court processes would have been cumbersome and time-consuming for Nolan, who had no time. The district officer was initially a little reluctant to provide a copy of the CCTV footage in his custody, but after Nolan explained the situation of things, he immediately forgot about the usual due process of law. The officer slipped the disc into his laptop and Nolan subconsciously ran his hand down his pants legs, pupils dilating. About five minutes later, Nolah staggered, his lips parted, and he suddenly became dizzy. How could this be? It was Cody? The same man who killed his father? His lips suddenly went dry. Scared that he would slump down to the ground, the officer held him, pulling him down a chair. After some probable five minutes, Nolah regained composure, having quenched his thirst with a glass of water. Suddenly, his sens

CHAPTER 145“We will have to track down Cody but the only way we can do that is by waiting to get another call from him,” the police informed Cody. “Why should we have to wait to get his call?” Nolan asked, not sure of the terms.“We have a tracking device already, all we have to do is place it near the phone once he calls,” the police informed.Nolan nods his head as a sign to show that he now understood what they meant.“For now you have to get further evidence of the kidnapper and the relation of him with his father as it might give us a clue on why he continues to torment you,” the police demanded, giving Nolan the task of searching for more information. “Alright but why not commence a silent search and rescue them while we wait,” Nolan suggested to the police, they come to an agreement, after which Nolan goes back to the mansion to search for any clues of the hideaway or information.He goes into his father's home office for the first time since his father died.

Chapter 146ALEXA'S POVThree nights had passed and Cody was becoming more impatient. He paced around in anger, trying to think of what to do.In anger, he grabbed my weak and bruised body and brought his mouth close to my ears. “Can you see now that Nolan doesn't give a damn about you? He doesn't care about you, that's how these wealthy people behave. You left me just because of him and now, you can see the grave consequences playing before your eyes,” Cody said as he dropped me on the floor in frustration.I yelped in pain, and I was terrified of what else he could do in anger. Nolan can't possibly leave me, I know he loves me and can do anything to save me.“Nolan would come to save me, I knew that. And if he fails to come, I'll make sure I save myself from this mess and come back to hunt you down. You will beg at my feet for mercy, Cody,” I voiced out with all the strength left it in me.“Whoa, I love that boldness and certainty. If you really think you can get out of here and co

Chapter 148ALEXA'S POVAfter the shootout, the police had called the paramedics. One of them attended to me, to treat the wounds and bruises that Cody had inflicted me with. I observed my environment as other paramedics combed the area and picked up the dead bodies.I could see that they were the bodies of the men that inflicted pain on me.

During those times, I had thought I was going to die but thankfully, I was strong until the end.I noticed a body bag that they were carrying with ease.
