Captivation: Want Nothing But You
Chapter 439: Roger Came

In the Sue Garden Il sorry the number you are trying to call is not reachable.

Please try again later...

Rachel hung up before the phone prompt could finish its message.

Since Victor left the Sue Garden almost an hour ago, Rachel had called Joey more than twentytimes.

Each time, she received a voice recording telling her that his number couldn't be reached.Meanwhile, Andy was calling people he knew.

When he was done, he went to the balcony and saw Rachel staring at the screen of her phoneabsentmindedly.

"Miss Bennet..."

Andy walked towards Rachel.He happened to glance at Rachel's phone screen and saw Joey'snumber on it.He knew how worried she was so he tried to comfort her.

"Joey is a smart kid.He will be safe.Don’t worry too much.”

"Okay," Rachel answered distractedly.

Joey had always been a smart kid.He had been kidnapped before when he was younger.

Rachel had just returned to the headquarters of the Red Hackers, where she became the newpresident.

However, many members of the alliance wanted her position as well.

Even if she was the president, she didn't have the full confidence of the people.

Because of her precarious position in the Red Hackers, Rachel tried her best to keep Joey out oftheir sight.

But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't hide Joey all the time.

Rachel had just assumed the presidency for more than half a month.

It was during this time that the unfortunate thing happened.

She had been working so hard that she fell ill.

It was her noon break, and she had a video chat with Joey.

Quintin entered the office.

He thought that Rachel didn't look well so he touched her arm, which was hot to the touch."Boss, you have a fever."

Joey heard what Quentin had said.

They boy got worried and wanted to see Rachel.

When the video chat with Rachel ended, Joey sneaked out of the house.

At that time, the situation in the Red Hackers was getting terrible and Rachel's home had alreadybeen targeted.

As soon as Joey got out of the yard, someone took him away.

As soon as the nanny found Joey was missing, she called Rachel.

The island was not big and it was Rachel's territory, being the headquarters of the Red Hackers.She put someone to check all the surveillance videos to replace Joey.

Joey was found an hour after he went missing.

He was sitting in the bathtub with a lollipop in his hand.

On the floor of the bathroom, a person was lying down and his forehead was bleeding.

When Rachel checked the surveillance video later, she found that Joey didn't show any resistancewhen the kidnapper took him.

He didn't cry or make any noise.

Joey even asked the man to buy him a lollipop, and he did.

Joey was taken to a bathroom where he was locked up.He looked at the toiletries rack, took thebottles and jars that he could reach, and put them in the bathtub.He opened one bottle, whichhappened to be body wash, and poured it on the bathroom floor.He then sat in the bathtub andcried aloud to call the attention of the kidnapper.

The bathroom door opened and the kidnapper went in to see what had happened to Joey.He didn'tnotice the liquid on the floor so he slipped and fell.

The kidnapper glanced at Joey who had this naughty look in his eyes.He knew at once that it wasthe boy who intentionally spilled the body wash on the floor.He naturally got furious.He grabbedthe handrail so he could stand and grab Joey.

But Joey began throwing the bottles and jars at the kidnapper, who instinctively covered his facewith his hands.He staggered to his feet.He slipped and fell again, and in the process, he slammedhimself against the toiletries rack.

A bottle of shampoo on the top shelf of the rack fell and hit the kidnapper on his forehead.

The cut on his forehead started bleeding Rachel pursed her lips as she thought of how Joey wasable to get out of danger that time.

She prayed hard that he would be safe this time.

But she knew it was different this time.

That time, the kidnapping happened on the island, where the headquarters of the Red Hackers was,so Rachel could easily replace Joey.

She somehow knew that the kidnapper wouldn't hurt Joey.

He only took Joey to threaten her so she would give up her position as the president.

And if something had happened to Joey, the kidnapper wouldn't be the president.

Moreover, Rachel would take revenge on him.

But this time, they were in Apliaria, and she didn't have control over things here.

More than that, Rachel was suspecting that Susan was behind this.

She knew very well what extreme things a woman would do when she was overwhelmed by hatebecause of love.

Joey would be Susan's way of threatening Victor! Rachel knew only too well that Susan would nothave any mercy on Joey as long as she could threaten Victor.

Ding! Someone rang the doorbell of the Sue Garden.

'Did Victor come back? Did he come back with Joey?" Rachel shivered and wanted to stand up tohave a look.

But when she did, she felt pain in her ankle.

Lukas hurried to the door and looked at the monitor screen.

Seeing the man at the other side of the door, he asked a servant to let the man in.

Lukas then walked back to the living room.

"Lukas, is it..."

"Miss Bennet, it's not Joey,"

Lukas cut in when he saw the expectant look in Rachel's eyes.

"It's Roger."

Rachel's eyes darkened.

The servant ushered Roger into the living room.

"Mr.Jimenez."

Lukas greeted Roger politely.

Roger nodded, acknowledging the greeting.

When he saw Rachel sitting on the sofa, he immediately noticed her inflamed ankle.

His eyes narrowed and he walked toward Rachel.

"Why are you here, Roger?"

His eyes still on Rachel's ankle, Roger answered, "I've heard that Joey was kidnapped.The vehicle ofthe person who took him stopped at the gate of the Jimenez Group.I already asked someone tosecure a copy of the recording of the surveillance camera at the gate of the Jimenez Group.I'm sureit will be helpful.”

"Joey was taken away at the gate of the Jimenez Group?"

Rachel asked with her eyes widened.

Roger nodded and then took the USB flash drive out of his coat pocket.

"I was there at that time, but I didn't notice them.l had my back towards them."

Tears welled up in Rachel's eyes when she realized that Joey went there to look for her.

Joey must have known from somewhere that Rachel was with Roger.

He then asked Carson to take him to the Jimenez Group so he could wait for her.

Roger knew that Rachel was worried about Joey.

"Don’t worry," he said in a comforting tone.

"Joey is a member of the Sullivan family.The kidnappers just want money.And the worst thing thatwe will do is to pay the ransom.”

Rachel turned her eyes to Lukas.

"Please bring me the laptop.l want to see the surveillance video.”

Lukas immediately went to get the laptop.

Looking at Rachel's red ankle, Roger frowned.

"What happened to your ankle, Rachel? Did Victor...?"

Rachel took a deep breath before she said, "Roger, Joey is my son.”
