The Billionaire's Daughter novel Chapter 30

Franco

Five hours passed and my plan failed. I thought I saw something from the opposite building adjacent to Saphira’s hotel room. I thought I saw a telescope that may have been used by Romano to monitor our movements.

Together with the Police, we went to check my hunch. We saw the telescope and it was owned by a little boy who checked in the room with his parents a night before.

The weird thing about the room was it was all frilly and pink. Something that is unusual to be rented by a family.

When we went to the room with the Police, the boy and his parents were out. But we saw their luggage and the police found nothing wrong. Rob and I tried to go inside the bedroom but the police said there was no need for us to investigate further.

A good news was waiting for us at the hotel when we got back. Saphira’s Billionaire father sent a secret agent.

“Rob, Franco, this is Agent Trey. He is one of the best operative agents of the government and he will help us recover Saphira from his captor.”

“From here on, I will be in charge of this case. I have been briefed already and here are my initial findings. The room you have been to just now was the room initially used by Romano and Saphira. She was removed from the place just 45 minutes from your arrival. I hacked inside the hotel’s system and cctv footages to validate this claim. Romano did not check out of the hotel since he used a family as decoy. The family who helped him to rent the room is now in our office for questioning.”

“But, where is Saphira now?”

“I am getting there. Please don’t interrupt.”

This man is serious business. I just hope he will be the key to save Saphira.

“Please continue.”

“Saphira is being transferred to a secured location as of this moment. Romano stealthily used a cab for their escape, which is difficult to track in this city due to their uniformity. I am hooked in the traffic satellite system to trace any unusual movements that may help us find them. For now, I suggest you take a rest and I will advise you for any updates. This is all for now. If I have been here hours before we could have caught them but I was only briefed an hour ago by my superiors and took to work immediately.”

“How can you be so sure that they are still travelling and is still not in a secure location?”

“Because, knowing Romano, he will not take risks knowing that he was almost caught. He will ensure that no loose trails will be made from his escape. Don’t worry I know how he thinks and will soon find out where he is taking her.”
