My men were now doing everything to track where the van had gone.
I wondered what Keith had uncovered on his side. Still, I couldn’t believe he wouldn’t let me help with the investigation. We could cross-compare our findings.
I was handed the photos of Jasmine from today. She was being pushed out of the building with Keith. A wave of relief came over me. She was fine. There were more bodyguards all around them compared to other pictures. That told me the phone call she made earlier might have resulted in this.
My powerlessness was getting to me now. I couldn’t continue to do this, watching from afar, not knowing how she was. Not knowing what that bastard was doing to her. Her making an abrupt call like that, my mind can only imagine she had to fight to find an opportunity like that. That he is fully restricting everything she does.
If there was nothing I could do legally, then I had no option but to do things the opposite way.
If I were able to answer her call and talk to her today. I would have gotten some clarity on her situation, and that’s what pains me the most. I haven’t heard her voice in weeks, and I haven’t received even been able to touch her since she was attacked because of Keith.
KEITH’S POV
Though I had calmed my mind still couldn’t get over Jasmine’s near escape. ’I love him.’ The scene as I entered the room continued to replay in my mind. Her heart was still with the Carrington boy. I knew this but hearing it out loud was a painful reminder.
Only a day had passed since then I had increased the security around us. Especially since her leg was healing I didn’t want to take any chances.
I recalled her trying to negotiate with me and saying I was going too far with the everything. Her points were valid and I didn’t want to do this to her but Jasmine was a lot smarter than I credited her for. With how defiant and spiteful she was I couldn’t risk it unfortunately. She definitely try something.
When we arrived home after work we continued our discussion of the investigation in my office. I had more evidence gathered pertaining to Diana.
"So we have a lead on the vehicle used by Diana and the escaped servants," I said as I showed Jasmine the the images of the vehicle laid out on the table in my seating area.
As you recall the cameras lost track of the delivery van after it went to an area with no highway cameras. but they found it later after another half hour from where the last image was taken, meaning my theory had been right. They tried to throw us off.
Her emerald eyes met mine."And where did the truck go?" She then asked.
I then looked through the images and showed her the most compelling one. "This is the last image that was taken in a completely different area to the last image that was taken from before. My men scoured through dozens of images from all the images around the area. This is the final image if the truck. However in this area is car pounding area."
Jasmine carefully examined the images her face serious as he scanned the documents. She was most calm and expressive whenever we talked about Anthony and the investigation. It was the only way I could have a normal conversation with her. Even when she worked in my office she seemed to get lost in the financial documents. She says it’s the reason why she stayed when she escaped from the guards the other day.
