"Yes, Mom I"ll do than thanks for reminding."Despite being careful and taking precautions, Carah wasn"t in control for the turn of events that took place.
The next day...
"What do you mean Lexie"s missing?" Carah had a very bad feeling about this,
"The teacher said that somebody whom the child recognized fetch her and it doesn"t look like abduction since she freely went with him, but up to this time they never reached home, I called up Zander he denied taking Lexie as it"s school days." her mother"s worried made Carah wake up on her from what she is reading.
"Mom, calm down wait at home, I"ll handle this. OK?"
As soon as she hanged up, her phone rung.
" h.e.l.lo Zander? Yes, I know, come to my office and fetch me, I don"t have a car we are going to the bottom of this." She told him brazing herself for the coming word battle with Zander, surely he will blame her for this because Lexie is suppose to be under her care.
She took out her phone and called someone.
" h.e.l.lo Jeff I need a favor please check on the CCTV on the vicinity of Lexie"s school and send it to me."
"What happened Carah?"
"Lexie is missing, she was fetch by someone from school and until now she didn"t returned."
"OK will do Carah, have you check on that Andre guy?"
"No, he"s out of town on a business trip."
"Relax Carah, you won"t be able to think clearly if you panic."
"With the recent developments on my end you can"t expect me not to worry."
"OK, be safe Carah, hope we will find her sooner.
"Thanks Jeff."
"You"re welcome, wait for my update."

As soon as she hang up the receptionist called her office to inform her that Zander is waiting for her in front of the building for her to hurry up, grabbing her bag and securing her gun in her leg holster she proceed to the elevator to meet Zander.
"Where to Carah?"
"I don"t know just drive... maybe we should go to the school first."
The security guard told her that Lexie was fetched by a guy that usually came to take her. There"s no doubt in her mind that it is Andre, but Andre is out of town and she verified it earlier that he was indeed on a business trip.
"What happened to your car?" Zander suddenly ask it"s not that he"s not welcoming the fact that they are together looking for their daughter, but he is aware that if she has an option she will not share this ride with him.
"I"ve met an accident."
"What accident?" He"s just returned from a business trip and wasn"t able to check on the local news lately, besides Carah"s men made it appear that it was a very minor incident to avoid it blowing into proportions and cause it to be sensationalized.
"It"s a long story, right now we should focus on finding Lexie and who took her."
"Do you have enemies Carah?" He ask seriously that it sent shivers on Carah. She is aware that it is a ground for her to lose her custody of their daughter, having the safety of the child in jeopardy.
"Why do you ask?" She kept on thinking for possible reason to appease his feelings.
"It"s obvious that if Lexie was kidnapped then it"s because of the enemy of her parents for a revenge."
"Everyone has an enemy, even you have business rivals they are considered your foes, but I don"t think that harming our child has something to do with it."
"I just hope so Carah, I do feel that there are a lot of things you"re not telling."
She just kept quiet, until her phone sounded.
Meanwhile early on...
"Uncle Andre where are we going, Mama said that I cannot go with anybody only with Dada, Mama and Granny."
"Well she told me to take you as they are all busy." Andre said.
"Why is you voice like that you don"t sound like yourself"
"I am under the weather sweetheart that"s why uncle Andre sounds peculiar. he he he. But you know? I let you into a secret just a tiny secret." He said it to divert her line and of questioning and coax her to go with him.
"What is it?"
"It"s just for the two of us, They ask me to come and get you because they are planning to surprise you."
"Really! OK I"ll just tell my teacher."
" We don"t have time it might spoil the surprise if we came in late. Come on!"
"OK I"m coming."
