Chapter 209: Chapter 209

"Mr. Hutson, don't worry. We will find Ms. Rebeeca soon." The police officer gives him words and then moved to see around the house with other cops to find some clues.

Edwin silently glanced at the place when Sam came to him in rush and informed him about the neighbor lady.

"Boss, the old lady opened her eyes. I just got a call from the hospital." Hearing that news, Edwin turned and ordered, "Let's go there with the officer."

Sam nodded and gets the main officer with them to the hospital while Julia who is still in shock, Sam asked her to stay home to help the cops if they need any information.

HOSPITAL

"Doctor, how she is now?" Edwin looked at the doctor with stargazing as he asked about the lady.

“Mr. Hutson, She is alright. Her injury is not serious. She fainted because of a panic attack.” He reported accurately.

“Doctor, can we ask some questions to the patient related to the incident? If it’s alright?” The officer questioned and waited to get a response from him.

“Yes, you can.” As soon as the doctor responded, the officer nodded and get inside the ward with one of his cops with a paper pen. While he requested Edwin to stay outside, he refused to do that, and finally, all four of them entered the ward.

The lady looked at the four-man in front of her and felt a little tensed but Sam come forward and introduced them only then she felt ease.

"Officer, you can ask anything. I'll answer." The lady's words made the officer nod in glad and he seat on the chair beside the bed and started asking questions. While another cop is ready to take note of her answer.

Edwin silently stood on one spot to hear her words.

“Mam, Can you briefly explain what exactly happened with Ms. Rebecca and how you got injured?”

The lady's forehead's all lines showed up as she started explaining the incident, "I was sleepless so I just thought to go out and walk for some time. However, when I opened my door, I heard a TV sound coming from Julia's apartment. I just curiously went to her door and found it opened, and I heard some noise coming from inside…”

"So, what do you see, when you get there?" Edwin raised a question feeling impatience.

The lady looked at him and then responded, “Everything inside there is a mess. I felt nervous and thought to check inside but when I get there, I found a stranger young man holding Rebecca while she was trying to push him.”

Edwin's eyes filled with anger as his hand clenched to hear her words.

“I was terrified to see that and called her name without thinking that it attracted stranger's attention to me. And the next second with her, he also noticed me. However, Rebecca shout on me to run back and call for help but before I could rush to go out, The stranger man used a vase to hit my back and I fainted there. I don't know after that."

Everyone felt serious. When the officer asked another question, “Mam, do you see the face of man?”

The lady tried to think about that but nodded firmly, "Yes, but not clearly because everything happened too fast to even remember. However, the man looked too angry at that moment…and with his clothes…he look coming from well class family."

The cops nodded while Edwin felt furious and raised an additional question, “Can you identify him if we show you the picture?”

The lady think for a moment and answered, “Yes, I can manage to do that.”

Edwin nodded and everyone finally left the ward in silence

“Mr. Hutson, I think, Ms. Rebecca knew that stranger.” The officer looked at Edwin and suggested his thought.

Edwin's brows twisted with seriousness and he asked, "Why do you think that?"

"Because the man did not take the old lady but only Ms. Rebeeca with him. His target was only her in the first place and he choose the right time to kidnap her. It's a kidnapping plan from the start to end."

Edwin's eyes turned sharper as he realize the officer is right. But he does not understand who can do that.

As they entered the apartment, Julia rushed to them and asked about Lady's statement. Sam reported everything.

“But who could be the guy? Why did he kidnap her?” Julia felt frustrated.

"Ms. Julia, don't worry. We will find that soon." The officer tried to console her.

When one cop entered getting new information.

“Sir, we got all the CCTV footage from inside the building but it was all not working.”

Hearing that everyone felt serious.

“The kidnapper should be doing that.” Officer explained and added, “What about outside footage?”

“We are almost collected that. Just need a little more time to let it send in one go and check out that.” the officer nodded.

While Edwin could not wait any longer after hearing all the information. He was worried about Rebecca and the baby's safety, and he yelled at cops in anger, “What do you mean by it will take time? I need footage right now!”

Hearing him the officer asked the cops to do the task faster. While Sam tried to handle Julia who again started sobbing and blaming herself to leave Rebecca alone in the first place.
