Tristan checked every CCTV footage that he got from the surrounding establishnts of the apartnt complex and found the vehicle that Derrick used when he took his ex-wife away.
They were racing against ti with the police officers involved. Tristan wasn't sure if they would be able to find Addie first before the Police.
He studied the route that the car took while hacking the caras along the streets and because this was a serious matter, Shein was already helping him, and they were talking through a Bluetooth earpiece.
"I found his car traveling north," Shein said. "I'll mark the street he took, and you can add the places where you've seen it."
"Thanks," Tristan said while putting his own marks on the sa Map that they were viewing. "This place is a bit remote. Don't you think so?"
"I agree. By the way, I sent you sothing. Check your inbox."
Tristan opened his inbox as per Shein's instructions and he saw a detailed map of the possible places where the car could have gone to. The last footage that they got showed the car traveling north, but they had no specific idea of its specific destination.
"Of these places that I sent to you, have you checked if Derrick owns a property there or if he has relatives in these remote areas?" Shein asked while viewing several footage from the next city just in case the car really arrived there.
"I just checked, but he has no property in these places. Not his wife or even Addie."
"I hacked the cara of the next city as well, but his car didn't show up there. It only ans one thing."
Tristan didn't need Shein to tell him the next words. He already knew what to do and he imdiately told the three bodyguards to go on separate ways and start looking for Adrianne in the remote areas that he sent them. He also told Officer Nick and Lucian about it.
Bzzz! Bzzz!
Tristan checked his phone and found Cayenne's ssage, asking him if Adrianne has been found already. "We're still looking for her," he responded honestly even if it would cause her to worry. It would be more troubleso if he lied to her and later on, sothing bad actually happened to Adrianne.
"The security team is at your disposal for now. Look for her. I can feel that sothing bad has happened to her."
"Got it, Ms. Yen. I'll be sure to inform you once we find her. I already asked for help from the authorities, too."
"That's good. Keep posted."
Lucian dispatched his team to cooperate with the people that Tristan sent and they looked for Adrianne imdiately. They checked the places that Tristan sent them, asking the neighborhood if they noticed Derrick within the area. Unfortunately, none of them recognized him. They didn't even see the car that he used to abduct his ex-wife.
"Tristan and Shein were certain that the car should have gone to these remote places based on the traveling route that they got from the CCTV connected to the traffic lights and other establishnts. If the car didn't arrive in the neighboring city, it's either he is still within our city's jurisdiction or he used another car before entering the next city. However, where did his original car go?
If soone else used it, they should have found it. If he discarded it sowhere to use another vehicle, we should have seen it on our way here. Sothing doesn't add up."
Lucian thought about it again and again. He sent Tristan another ssage, asking him to check the CCTVs once more and see if Derrick's car returned to the city.
"Give a few minutes. I'll ask Shein to help ," Tristan said and told Shein of the new request. They both worked quickly and check the possible routes that would bring him back to the city, but there was nothing at all. "Lucian, there are no footages that show the car going back here in the city."
"Got it. Send the list of his properties, too."
"Hn. I'll sort them out. I'll send it in a minute."
The call ended and a few seconds later, Lucian received a file from Tristan. It was the list of Derrick's properties. He asked soone to check into his three houses and monitor them if there was anything suspicious.
Ti ticked by and evening ca. There was no positive news of Addie's whereabouts and Cayenne was getting more worried. She even felt guilty for not helping Addie on ti.
"She will be fine," Stefan muttered and rubbed his wife's back. "Our people are looking for her already and the Police are doing their best, too. Don't stress yourself. You rarely get the chance to rest. Don't overthink."
Cayenne wanted to remain calm as her husband said, but she just couldn't. "If she cos back unhard, I will let her deal with her ex-husband the way that she wants. Otherwise, I'd let him taste the endless pain as if he's living in hell."
"Did Tristan tell you the possible reasons why she was abducted by her ex-husband?"
"No. I have not asked him about it, yet."
"Anyway, it's already late in the evening. You should get so sleep. I'll talk to Tristan for a few minutes and help them figure out where Addie could be."
"Okay. But be quick, okay?"
"Hn. I'll be right back. Give five minutes."
"I'll wait. I won't sleep if you are not here yet."
Stefan kissed her forehead and left in a hurry to go to the study room. He knew that Tristan would be working overti because of Addie's disappearance. Although he wasn't part of the Police, they needed his help and vice versa. Only by working together would they be able to find her imdiately.
"You sent soone to check his ho, right?" Stefan asked his secretary. "Did they get anything from his wife or from the helpers or the neighbors?"
"Yes. The helper said that Derrick Quijano left to confront his ex-wife for killing his unborn child. Apparently, his wife went out to et with his ex, and she had a miscarriage. The wife blad Addie and that caused the man to abduct her."
"Investigate the miscarriage thing. Check why his wife wanted to et Addie and where they t. As far as I have heard from her conversation with Ayen, although she still loves her ex-husband, she promised to never show up in front of him again, to set him free so he could find his happiness. I'm sure she won't do sothing that would ruin his life. There must be a big misunderstanding sowhere."
"I see. I'll check on them imdiately," Tristan said, and all of a sudden, he rembered sothing. He wasn't sure if it was because he had watched a lot of dramas with his girlfriend, but he felt that there was an evil sche going on.
When Stefan ended the call, Tristan made a series of calls as well. This ti, he called several people he knew from different hospitals. All of them were Obgyne.
