Adopted Soldier-Chapter 71

Chapter 71

Alex and Rachel returned to the Regius household, when they arrived inside the house, the two saw Rachel's family was all crying . It would seem that Dan told them a heartbreaking tale of anguish and the hardships he had to endure due to his amnesia .

When the Regius family started explaining to Alex, and Rachel why they were crying, the two felt a bit helpless, especially Alex . He already knew what kind of story Dan was going to say, but hearing how dramatically he explained it, made Alex feel like sighing .

Of course he didn't say anything about Alex being a merc . Dan told his family that Alex's father hired him to be Alex's personal martial arts instructor .

Rachel hearing his father's reason for not coming back, was all because of amnesia felt a bit irritated .

'What the hell is this!? Is my life some sort of T . V drama series?!' This was the thought that Rachel was screaming in her mind . Dan then informed Alex that Rachel wouldn't be going to school today, and he had no need to guard her for now, since he was with her .

At first Rachel resisted, screaming at her deadbeat father . "Why the hell should I miss school for you!?" Rachel truly didn't want to miss school just to bond with this loser of a father . Yet because of her mother and brothers' coercion, Rachel reluctantly agreed .

Kumiko wanted to invite Alex as well, but every time she tried to extend an invitation to join them, Dan kept on interrupting her . To her it seems like, even though her husband has amnesia he was still a doting father, same as before .

Seeing as Rachel was with his Instructor Dan, Alex decided it was safe to leave Rachel's protection to him . Also Alex didn't want to disturb their family bonding time . So after bidding goodbye to the Regius family, Alex proceeded to head towards school .

It was then Alex's phone for emergencies started ringing . Alex immediately answered the call . "Alexander here, what's the situation?"

"Young Master, Evangeline Kain has been kidnapped . " The one speaking was one of the maids Alex employed for surveillance .

After the incident where Alex needed to follow Rachel the whole Sunday, without being seen . Alex thought that way was too inefficient, so he made a more efficient way to monitor the area, and everyone related to him . Alex didn't lack money nor personnel, so he created a surveillance team consisting of some of the maids and butlers in the mansion .

He had set up a bunch of CCTV cameras in key areas of the city, under the guise of police work . The cover story was the cameras where there to help improve the safety of the city for the citizens . Of course he asked a favor from the police chief, and even made a detailed report for his dad, before implementing the plan .

Alex hearing that Eva has been kidnapped, tried to focus . "Tell me the current location of the kidnappers, and give me intel of the enemy . "

. . . .

(fifteen minutes before the call to Alex . )

Eva was heading to school like usual, which was being driven to school . At first Eva found nothing strange, but then she noticed that the usual car filled with bodyguards wasn't following them, not only that but the car she was in, has been suddenly surrounded by three similar looking sedans .

"Excuse me, Mr . Ned can you please speed up and pass those strange looking cars? I have a bad feeling about them . " Eva told her driver to speed up, but the driver didn't do so . Mr . Ned who was Eva's driver for the last year gritted his teeth, as he looked at the back mirror apologetically .

Eva seeing the driver's expression can already guess what was going to happen . "I'm sorry Ms . Kain, they took my baby . . . I had no choice . I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry . " Ned kept on apologizing to Eva, as he stopped the car .

Eva sighed helplessly at the current situation . "It's alright Mr . Ned, I do understand your predicament . There is no need to apologize, it was also my fault for not ensuring your family's safety . Being my personal driver does have some danger to it . It's was an error on my part, I guess I shall try better with next driver . "

Even though Eva knew she was about to be kidnapped, she was being still as calm as ever, She was even planning what to do for the next driver, as if this kidnapping was but an every day thing . This made the driver feel a bit unnerved .

Evangeline Kain has been kidnapped numerous times, but only one of those times was truly dangerous, and that was also the time when she met Alex .

The door of the car suddenly opened, and some rough looking men tried to pull her out, but before he could touch her, Eva slapped the hand trying to reach for her .

"No need to be so rough, I can get out by myself . Well then Mr . Ned, I guess you'll be needing another job after this . Don't worry after this incident I will try to find you new employers . " Eva then bowed her head, and proceeded to get out of the car .

"So gentlemen, what is it that you want?" When Eva was about ready to negotiate with her kidnappers, she heard an electronic voice telling one of the kidnappers, to knock her out . The moment she heard those words, something heavy hit the back of her head, which made her lose consciousness .

. . .

"We identified the kidnappers, most of them are from random minor gangs in the city, but the ones wearing mask, seem to be professionals . . . There has been an update on the location of the kidnappers . They seem to be heading towards a shoe factory . I'm sending you the coordinates now . "

Alex then received the exact location of the shoe factory on his phone . It was quite a distance by foot .

"Tsk! Prepare my personal motorcycle, and bring me equipment D, I'll meet you in the front gates of the mansion . Also inform my dad about the current situation . "

"Roger that . "

Alex was a tad irritated, since he was only able to take a power nap for five minutes, so he wasn't in a good condition . He was truly angered by the kidnappers that decided to this today of all days .

Alex mumbled under his breath . "What else could happen?"
