Married to the heartless Billionaire

Chapter 107. HOPE

"Ma'am when will you reveal yourself to Sophia?" Carlos asked the woman who had hired him to kidnap her.

He was yet to see her face properly as each time she approached them, it was in a dim room and she always has glasses on and a hat too.

"I would love to reveal myself but when I eventually do, it is to kill her. I do not plan to return her back to her husband. I want her out of the way for me to have him," she replied.

"Why not kill her already? Why keep her if you have no intention to contact her husband to tell him you have her?" Carlos boss asked.

She let out a small laugh. "To punish her and also punish him a little."

"Can you explain better?" Carlos boss Anderson asked.

"I am not supposed to tell you what I plan to do as I am the one paying you and not the other way round but I will tell you," she replied and folded her legs.

"She stole my man. Adrian is mine and not her but she stole him and so I will kill her and have him because right from time he has always been mine," the lady explained.

"He was yours before she married him? Is that what you mean?" Anderson asked.

"Yes and no. Adri seem to have forgotten the promise we made to each other but because I went for too long, I came back to hear that he was married," she clicked her tongue.

"It's fine. I do not plan to give her back to him. I will let him go crazy for weeks unable to get a clue and will reveal her dead body to him," she told them.

"So we will be watching her for week? Can we torture her since she won't be useful to you?" Carlos asked.

"Of course. She won't be alive for long anyways and the fact she is pregnant makes me hate her more. How dare her get pregnant for him," she seethe.

"She's a beautiful woman. I will surely have my fun with her," Carlos smirked.

"Do what it is that you want with her, I could careless. That's what thieves like her deserves anyways. You cannot steal from others and not face Karan," she laughed out loud.

Anderson sighed before clasping his finger together. "The deal was to kidnap her and yours pay us but it seems we will be keeping her for long and you have no intentions in asking for ransom from her husband so there will have to be little adjustment, don't you think?"

"State your price. I know it always has to do with money when you talk like this," the lady said.

"Since we will be keeping her for weeks which might be a month, you will have to triple the normal amount you have paid us, what do you say?" Anderson remarked.

"That's fine by me. As long as she doesn't escape and is tortured, then it's fine by me," she replied.

"I will send money weekly for you. Also Carlos," she turned to him.

"Remember not to come out. You are wanted. Be very careful too. All of you because I do not want that girl safe. I will kill her in the end so you guys better not fuck it up for me or I promise you that you will regret it," she warned sternly before standing on her feet to leave.

"We won't fuck it up. As long as we all keep to our side of the bargain," Anderson replied her.

ADRIAN CASTILLO

It's been over a week since Sophia has gone missing and each time I found it hard to live with myself. I haven't slept properly because I couldn't sleep.

Each time I close my eyes, I see her in pain, crying that I come to save her and that she's scared.

There was no clue at all. What those men wanted we do not know. They haven't contacted me and it scares me.

What other plans do they have? Did Sophia die on the way? Was that why they didn't bother to contact me?

Two nights ago I cried like a child missing his mother. It was hard for me. My private investigator was yet to give me any information concerning her. Sophia's mother has been crying every day and pleading that I help her find her child.

I have asked everyone I know that can be of help but none know anything or even a clue.

Today I plan on telling the whole world about my missing wife so that they can help me find her with the little pieces of evidence we have.

I need her back.

Sophia's parents and her sister are all with me at the media station. Today we are all going to inform the media of my missing wife and I plan to pay a huge amount of money to anyone who can help me find my wife.

"You can begin Mr. Castillo." The director informed me and I looked right into the camera.

I cleared my throat. "Hello everyone watching this news right now. I am sure every one of you already heard of my missing wife and for those who haven't heard yet, my wife, Sophia Castillo has been kidnapped."

"She was kidnapped on her twenty-first birthday in the hall where we celebrated her birthday party. At first, we were unable to get anything but we have details of the men who had kidnapped her."

"Carlos smith is an ex-convict, he used to reside in Eastern Harlem but not anymore. He has no relative at all but in case you are familiar with him or you have seen his face before and you know where it is that we can find him then please contact me and I promise you that we will page a huge amount of money," I informed them before showing the images of Carlos.

"Please help me find my wife. She's pregnant too, thank you." I said.

Detective decker, the detective in charge of Sophia's case came to me.

"I told you not to bring this to this media. Do you know you are letting the criminals aware and now they will be more cautious?" He whispered to me.

"That's it. That's the more reason everyone has to know. Nobody knows where he is and I'm sure that he is somewhere and once someone sees this news, they can help us. We need all the help we can get," I informed him.

"You do not get it, Mr. Castillo. I understand that you want to find your wife Mr. Castillo but she's kidnapped not missing. These kidnappers know what it is they are doing...."

"What if my wife is dead? Have you thought of that? I mean who kidnaps someone and does not inform who she stays with? Do they want money or what? Have you thought of that?" I questioned.

It pains me to talk about her death when I do not want to be pessimistic. I just cannot help it. It's been over a week and nothing.

It's scaring the fuck out of me. If she is truly dead then let me see her body. I doubt I'd be able to take it and I really hope she's fine and these kidnappers are just testing my patience.

"Your wife is alive. I do not think she's dead and why I said this is so that they won't move location. We need to find them," the detective explained.

"No. I think that's good. If she's with them and after this news, they decided to move, people will notice it, and since his face is all over the news. I'm sure we will get a good reply soon. I am being optimistic. I promise to ruin their lives," I clenched my fist.

"Anyways, we got the names of the other two men and we located one of them. As I ask you now, my men are on their way to get them. Because their names were not out there, they think they are free and were seen roaming. Once we get them, we will be able to find the location of your wife," Detective decker informed.

"Tell me this is a lie?" I asked.

This was good news and I pray that they can get those men because I need to get my baby back in my arms soon.

"Let's posit...." His phone rang.

"One minute," he told me before answering his phone.

"You got him? Are you on your way back to the station? Good. We will join you now," Detective decker said before ending the call.

"My men say they've gotten the men involved in kidnapping your wife. They are on their way to the station," he informed me.

Hope! Hope! I just couldn't help but feel I was just a few steps getting close to my wife. I was finally going to find my woman.
