The Law of Attraction - Chapter 672

“I will give you the money. Just name your price, Harry…” Kenzie tried to convince Harry.

“It’s not about the money for me, Kenzie. I contemplated a lot when my mom instructed me to contact her backup. I tried to ask Daryl and even you to consider, but both of you paid no heed. I only want my mother back, Kenzie…” Harry whispered, looking at Kenzie with conflicted emotions.

“You want your mother, Harry? But can you affirm that she will not make another move to hurt us once we let her go? You can’t get a hold of your mother, Harry. What happened to father Marcus is the proof. Do you even know that she’s poisoning and killing the man who has been a father to you for so many years?”

There was only silence and Kenzie could tell that Harry was having a hard time assessing everything.

She was about to say more when the door suddenly opened and men barged in.

“We have to move! We’ve been exposed! Throw away your mobile phone!” The man with a big line scar on his face shouted at Harry, while two other men dragged Kenzie out of the room.

“Wait! Be careful she’s pregnant!” Harry shouted and quickly removed the hands of the two men from Kenzie.

“I will take her. Go ahead and lead the way.” Harry shouted with a dark face.

The man with the scar lifted a brow but signaled his two men to let Harry hold Kenzie instead.

No wonder her husband brought up the pregnancy, to make sure Harry would somehow take care of her. Kenzie felt worried. The group of men handling them seemed to be professional.

“What happened?” Harry asked when they were already inside a black car. The man covered Kenzie’s face with a black paper bag so she could not see anything. Knowing there was nothing she could do, she remained quiet and listened to the exchange as her mind processed plans to escape.

“We got intel that the [email protected]’s husband is on his way,  with some military personnel in disguise. There were movements at Cha mansion so I’m sure they are the military team Sy Law Firm facilitates when required. I will provide you a better undetectable phone to use later to call your brother.

Don’t drag things for too long because we have a deadline for this particular task. Your mother and I only agreed on a three weeks task and I’m sure you already know what will happen if you and your mother won’t meet that deadline. I will wipe out everyone who knows us.”

Then the man with the scar looked in Kenzie’s direction and maniacally beamed, “I might consider her services though. It’s such a waste to kill such a beauty…”

Kenzie could feel goosebumps all over her body on hearing the man’s words. She assumed him as the leader.

“I can pay ten folds on what you agreed on with Harry’s mother.” Kenzie tried to negotiate though she knew it would just be a waste of time with people like them since she had already seen the leader’s face.

She cursed silently but still hoped that paying more money could still work so she added, “Or you can  name your price and I will make things happen if you just let me go.”

“Nice try, gorgeous, but it’s not going to happen. We don’t do things like that. We can for sure ask for more money if you’re with us.” she heard the leader say followed by a maniac laugh.

“Just be quiet!” she heard Harry whisper in her ear. She was getting frustrated, not because she was scared of what was going on or of all possible things that could happen to her; She was scared for Daryl and worried about her father’s reaction when news of her kidnapping reached him at the hospital.

She was feeling dizzy and could feel the sudden churning in her stomach. So she blurted out, “I need to vomit! Stop the car!”

She heard the man curse but he instructed her to wait as he handed Harry a paper bag where she could vomit.

“Morning sickness?” she heard Harry murmur, as he gently stroked her back.

“I can’t breathe properly…” she nodded and whispered after puking. Maybe being pregnant would help her convince Harry, but she suddenly felt worried.

‘Morning sickness?’ she wondered. Her period should start tomorrow. Was it really an early symptom or she had just vomited because she was overly worried. She suddenly felt nervous about the possibility of her being pregnant.

Harry, who looked worriedly at her, pulled the blindfold over and covered her eyes with it, so she could breathe more freely, instead of with the black bag on her head.

“Do you know where we are going?” she whispered.

“I don’t know. Just stay quiet Kenzie, everything will be fine if Daryl will just agree to exchange you with my mother. Why is he making things so complicated!” Harry hissed. He was getting worried about the men his mother had contracted for this work. But his mother had reassured him that these men would not hurt him or Kenzie, just as long as he made sure he would not offend their leader.

Meanwhile, Daryl got worried hearing the conversation inside the car.

“What’s going on? What compromise? What movement?!” he asked in a rush.

“The target is changing location, but don’t worry we have someone tailing them. We are monitoring their car through the CCTV’s on the roads as well. We will rescue your wife in no time.” The leader in charge of the rescue reassured, but Daryl felt very weak at that moment.

He suddenly thought if his decision was correct. He should probably let Karen out.

“I can’t compromise with Kenzie’s life. I will let Karen out and let another team take her on-site!” he suddenly instructed. He must have his wife back safe no matter what!

“Once Karen is let out they will surely have ways of knowing and confirming it. They must believe that Karen is in our hands!” Daryl added. He heaved a sigh as the team leader made a call and relayed his instructions.

‘Oh God, please keep Kenzie safe!’ he mused as he tried to call Harry on his mobile and the number Harry had last used to call him. He also left him a text message informing Harry that he was ready with Harry’s mother for the exchange.
