The CEO's Return (Tracy and Alex) novel Chapter 47

Alex

"What do you mean? We just left there." Lewis said and I nodded.

"He said Tracy was calling me already when she left, but this is Tracy's phone in her bag," I said showing them the phone.

"Wait, that is true, but why can't we see the car she drove?." Cole asked

"He probably did something about it," Lewis answered

"Oh my goodness! Why didn't I think of it?" James said facepalming himself

"What are you talking about?" I asked hoping he remembered something.

"When I came here eight years ago, I brought some antique houses which I renovated, there were some houses with secret passages, but I'm not sure which one has, I have to check for the maps I was given when I bought the houses, The house I sold to Sam might be one of the houses with secret passages." He said and I stood up.

"What are we waiting for? Let's go to your place." I said and he nodded.

It was well past ten but none of us seemed to notice, we filed out, we were about to get into the car when we noticed, the security guards were talking to someone at the door.

I'm sure we all rushed to the door with the same intention, that it was Tracy at the door, we were suprised to see that it was Rebecca, Lewis' wife at the door, the moment we told the guards to let her in, she fell into her husband's arm and started sobbing.

It took a few minutes before she could calm down enough to tell us what was wrong.

"We have to go and save them."

"Who?"

"Tiana and the kids!, Gun!, some men went to their house and is trying to take Tiana and the kids, Tiana is stalling them, I drove to be with her and the kids but when I got there and saw those men, I knew I had to come to find you." She said and Cole started going towards the gate but James pulled him back.

"Let me go!, My wife and kids."

"You have to calm down his kids are there too, we have to be reasonable about this," James said making Cole relax.

"How many men did you see?" James asked

"Three, but I'm sure there is another one on the lookout, I didn't stay long enough to find out."

"Good, what I'll do is call someone at the police station, we'll all try to move quietly so we won't alert those people, but we have to be fast at the same time."

James moved away and placed a call, he took a few minutes then came back.

"It is settled they'll meet us at the intersection before Cole's house, who is driving the car?."

"Oh, the kids are in the car!" Rebecca said rushing outside

"I'll just follow whichever car you are driving," Lewis said then followed his wife.

"I'll drive," Cole said

"What?, I'll rather drive." He said collecting the key from me.
