Daniel thought about the modes of transportation going there and it was only possible by car or by air. But because of landing zone restrictions, he was left with the option to only travel by car. "Lucas, it"s a long drive from here, I don"t think my car"s fast enough. And looking for legal landing zones there will take time, which I already don"t have. What should I do? I need to get there."Lucas then started to devise a plan with Daniel and after their conversation ended, Daniel faced his brother once more, "Liam, I-"
"Don"t worry. I"ll take care of things in here, go and make sure Samantha"s safe.", Liam interrupted his brother, he already knew what Daniel had to do and he was going to help him in every way possible.
Daniel nodded and left his office to drive towards an address that Lucas had given him. And when he got there, he was greeted by a group of men in black suits. One man who looked like the leader of the team walked up to Daniel and bowed, "Sir, my name is Logan and I am the team captain of this group. We are here to follow your command. Just say the word and we"ll execute."
Daniel nodded, "I do hope it won"t have to come to that."
"Of course. Please come this way.", Logan lead the way and brought Daniel to the garage.
When they got there, Daniel"s brows raised as he saw a Hennessey Venom F5 in black sitting in the middle of the garage.
"Master said that you needed something fast and this is the best that we have. I will go with you on the way and there will also be a team who will meet with us at the town just next to Mansfield."
"Keys.", Daniel didn"t have time to think anymore, he just needed to get moving.
Logan pa.s.sed him the keys and the both of them got inside the car. A group of six other men also got inside the other cars that were parked in the huge garage.
Daniel started the car and sped off without saying anything else. He was already getting impatient.
"I"m sorry, but I just have to ask… is it true? Are you… The… Swift?", Logan got really curious as Daniel started to pick up his speed but safe enough to maneuver his way around the crowded city.
Instead of answering, Daniel took out his phone and pa.s.sed it onto him. "Keep calling the speed dial #1."
Logan caught the phone and followed his order, however, Samantha"s phone number was still out of reach.
Thirty minutes of driving, they have already reached a rural area when a faint ring started to sound from Daniel"s phone. Logan had been calling the phone nonstop and finally, a ring was heard.
When he heard this, he slowed down his speed and waited for Samantha to pick up the call.
"Put it on speaker.", he requested and Logan followed.
"Hey love… have you been calling me since earlier?", Samantha spoke on the phone and it made Daniel breathe out a sigh of relief.
"Yes, where are you?"
"We just arrived back at the hotel, my battery died a couple of hours ago. I forgot to charge it before leaving.", she answered.
It was indeed a relief for Daniel to hear Samantha"s voice and know that she was safe.
"Okay. Where"s Becca?", he asked.
"She"s-", Samantha had just managed to utter a word when a loud *bang!* was heard from the other line, startling Daniel and Logan inside the car that made him suddenly step on the brakes.
"What was that?", he asked frantically but Samantha didn"t respond.
More loud noises were heard and it sounded like things were getting broken and smashed.
"Who are you, people?", Samantha asked the men who came barging inside their room and Daniel heard her speak.
He gripped the steering wheel hard until his knuckles became white, "Samantha! What is going on?", he growled.
Not hearing Samantha"s response but only a faint sound of movements from the speaker made him very anxious that he didn"t know what to do.
A scream was heard and then the call got cut off. Daniel froze on the spot and Logan who was sitting on the pa.s.senger"s seat, felt that the temperature inside the car had gotten colder. Looking at the man beside him, Logan suddenly realized that this man"s aura was frightening.
He had worked under The Olsen"s family for years and he knew how ruthless they were but it was the first time that he had encountered a man like this. The dangerous vibe that Daniel emitted at that time made Logan realize that he was not the kind of man that you should toy with, or you will surely be courting death.
Daniel closed his eyes in an attempt to calm himself down as he knew that nothing good would ever come out if he let his emotions get the best of him.
He straightened up and with clenched teeth, he started to drive the car again. This time, he was more focused and determined to get there as fast as he could. And with the way that he was driving, Logan no longer had any doubts that the man in the driver"s seat was indeed the Swift; the poor man paled as Daniel sped through the long and winding road.
…
Mansfield Town.
In a brightly lit bedroom, Samantha and Becca sat on the bed. Samantha had a small cut on her forehead in which she got when she tried to fight off the men who tried to grab her while Becca had some bruises on her wrist.
On a large comfy armchair, sat a devilishly handsome looking man clad in a white suit. With his das.h.i.+ng appearance and a sense of n.o.bility, one would say that he could be a prince.
Becca shot daggers at him and he smiled at her. Clasping his fingers together, he leaned forward and spoke in a low and slow voice, "Love, it"s so good to see you. You look as beautiful as ever."
Becca tried her best to contain her emotions and all that she could do was to respond by saying his name, "Gael."
