Chapter 274 A lesson

[Genovesse Mansion]

Holding her throbbing head, Rachael slowly opened her eyes.

"Hey, you are awake," Janet closed the book she was reading and quickly approached her. "How are you feeling?"

"Janet?" she frowned and looked around only to realise she was not in her room.

"Yes, it's me." Janet glanced at the watch. "You have been sleeping for almost four hours now." She got up. "I will let Riftan know that you are up and I'll get you something to eat as well, okay?"

When Rachael nodded, she stepped out of the room.

Sitting up straight, she grabbed her forehead and groaned. She clearly remembered getting kidnapped by the driver and being dragged to an unknown location. She remembered seeing Riftan with a man she had never seen before. She remembered Riftan approaching her but after that everything was a blur..

"Don't worry, the headache will go away." Riftan entered the room. "The doctor said you will be alright."

Rachael looked at him and frowned. She couldn't understand what was going on. Was he the one who kidnapped her?

"Janet is bringing the food." He sat down in a nearby chair. "You should eat something and take some more rest before your husband comes to take you."

"Andrew is coming?" The way her eyes lit up when he mentioned Andrew's name did not go unnoticed by him.

"Yes, he will come once we inform him about your whereabouts." He handed her his phone. "You will find his number in the contacts."

When she hesitated to take the phone, Riftan assured her. "Relax, I did not kidnap you if that is what you are thinking. You are free to leave whenever Andrew comes to take you."

"Now will you take the phone and call your husband before he blows up the entire city?" When he shoved the phone towards her, Rachael took it.

"Why didn't you tell him before?" It had been almost six hours since she had disappeared. Rachael could only imagine what Andrew must be going through.

The thought of him running around recklessly looking for her clenched her heart.

"What makes you think your husband will believe me?" Riftan chuckled. "If I had called him earlier he would have either thought I was messing with him or that I was the one who kidnapped you to get back at him. So I figured out it would be better if you talked to him first before I give him further direction."

Without saying anything, Rachael quickly looked for Andrew's number and called him.

[Volkov Mansion]

"Where is she, Semion?" Andrew grabbed his collar. "What did you do?"

Semion grabbed Andrew's hand in an attempt to push him away but he couldn't match his strength.

"Andrew—" Justin grabbed his hand and tried to pull him away. "Killing him is not a wise thing to do right now."

More than half of their men were scattered throughout the city looking for Rachael for the past four hours but they still couldn't find her.

Elsa and Kate were already home but they were not in a state to talk. Both of them had been drugged and were currently resting in their respective rooms.

Their only option at the moment was to wait for either of them to get up and tell them what exactly had happened. But Andrew didn't have a single ounce of patience left in him. He was going crazy with each passing second.

At this point, anything could have happened to Rachael. He didn't even know whether she was still alive or dead.

After hours of waiting, Ben managed to find a link between the newly appointed driver and Semion.

This piece of information was enough for him to understand that whatever was happening was related to Semion. He didn't waste a single second to order his men to drag Semion to the mansion from wherever he was.

Justin somehow managed to drag Andrew away.

Semion collapsed on the floor and coughed vigorously.

Andrew was about to say something when his phone started ringing. When he saw the caller ID, he frowned.

"Who is it?" Daniel approached him. "Why is he calling you?"

Without saying anything, Andrew received the call.

"Andrew—"

"Rachael?" Andrew gasped. "Oh my God babe—Is that really you?"

"Y-Yes it's me," Rachael wiped her tears with the back of her hand. "I am so sorry. I know I should have called you earlier but—"

"That doesn't matter," Andrew exclaimed. "Tell me where you are?"

She looked at Riftan. "I am with Riftan, I think it is his house."

Without saying anything, Riftan took out his handkerchief and gave it to her.

"What are you doing there? I mean, how did you get there?" Andrew couldn't understand what was happening.

"I—" When Riftan gestured her to give him the phone, Rachael added, "I think you should talk to him first."

"Alright, give him the phone."

Riftan took the phone from her hand. "Volkov—"

"I swear Riftan if you hurt her I will—"

"Woah, relax. Hurting your wife is not even the last thing I want to do right now," Riftan assured him. "If I wanted to hurt her, why would I rescue her in the first place?"

Keeping quiet for a while, Andrew asked, "Who?"

"Robert Greg," he answered. "Don't worry, it will be easy for you to take him down as he is already injured and at his lowest at the moment."

"Give the phone to Rachael."

"Alright." He handed the phone to her.

"Andrew, are you coming?" Rachael asked. Though she was safe now, her thoughts were still very unsettling. She would feel at peace only after seeing him.

"I will but first I need to take care of something," he remarked. "It will be very quick, okay? I will be there as soon as I can." He assured her.

"A-Are you going after him?" When he did not say anything, she tightened her grip around the phone. "Is it necessary?"

"Of course it's necessary," Riftan remarked. "What Robert did today is unacceptable. Someone has to teach him a lesson."
