The Billionaire's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 96

Aidan's POV

"My baby!", Anna shouts as I enter the house. She runs out of the car before I can even park the car well in the driveway.

I run after her and barge into the house. I just hope she won't hurt herself. I wonder where Tristan was when it happened.

Who could it be? Is it Damien?

I know Damien isn't the only enemy I have. He isn't the only person I am holding grudges against. Apart from Damien, Tessa is there also and my father. I remember Tony and I wonder if he is capable of doing this to get back at Anna for deceiving him.

By the time I enter, Anna is already on the floor in the living room. We shouldn't have spent a week at my villa, we planned to spend just three days, if we had come back on time, maybe this wouldn't have happened.

"How did it happen, Natalie?" I ask her with my hands on my waist.

"I heard gunshots in the early hours of this morning and came out to check if all the doors are closed when I saw two men dragging Tania out with the baby. They had her mouth closed with something and they took her away in a van." She explains in tears.

"What type of van was it? What color? Can you remember the faces of the men?" She shakes her head.

Anna begins to lament again, more loudly, and the maids around with fears on their faces. No one is safe here anymore.

"What about the securities?"

"They are dead", she breaks down into tears and I spin around, rubbing my face with my hand in confusion.

I want to call the cops when Tristan enters. I throw him a cold glare.

"Where the hell did you go to when this happened?" I push him angrily.

He bows and answers. "I went after them."

"What?" Anna and I exclaim at once. She gets up and rushes to him. She holds his shirt tightly.

"Who are they?"

"I don't know who they are. I lost them but I was able to stick a tracking device on their van", he replies.

I gaze at him intensely. "So you have no idea who they are or who sent them?"

"No, sir", he replies.

"Do you know where they are taking them then?"

"Yes, I believe the device will help as long as they don't notice they are been tracked. I came back for backup, we need to act fast and trace them to wherever they are going to."

I am thinking, trying to figure out who could be responsible for this but as much as I try to shuttle my thoughts between all the people I have issues with, my father, Damien, Tessa and now Tony, only one of them keeps appearing in my mind, Damien.

"Let's go", I walk past Tristan, wishing I can fly to wherever they are and rescue them before Damien can hurt any one of them. I don't know what Damien wants again from me but I am ready to fight him with all I have to save my baby and her nanny.

"I am coming with you", Anna remarks and runs to my side before I can protest.

Evelyn's POV

I am preparing to go over to Aidan's mansion today. The restaurant is ready and I want Anna to help me in recruiting my staff. I have conducted the interviews already and I am indecisive on who to choose. It's been a long time since I visited and I missed Lily. I finish up my make-up and pick up my bag to go out when I hear the knock on my front door.

Who can it be? I wonder. I don't have any friends, my daughter is my only friend.

Is it Anna?

I walk to the door in a hurry. I am glad Anna understands me now. I needed to talk to someone the other day after leaving Pam with her father at that restaurant, so I had to swallow my pride and call the only friend I have, my daughter.

She came running despite how late it was and I told her everything. She listened to me with rapt attention as I pour out my heart. I told her my fears and I confessed what I feel for Adam after assuring her that I will not have anything to do with him again. I saw how she smiled at me in admiration for my courage and it made my heart swell with joy.

I throw the door open and I am surprised to see Pamela standing by the door with a light smile on her face.

"What are you doing here?" I can't hide my surprise that she is at my door by this time of the day. I am also wondering why she is here.

Did something happen to her father? I ask within me.

If something is wrong with her father, she won't be smiling this way.
