Mr Ceo's Pregnant Ex-wife-Chapter 134 - KIDNAPPED

Ace's scheduled flight to Brittania was yesterday. Twenty-four hours passed since then but I haven't received a call from him informing me his flight had been cancelled.

My worries keep growing. Negative ideas kept popping inside my thoughts. The fact that he was not answering his phone scared me more.

What if Vince kidnapped him? What if something happened to Ace without me knowing?

I took a deep, steadying breath and kicked the negative thoughts away. Fretting would never take me anywhere.

…. The number you have dialed is either unattended or out of coverage. Please try your call later…..

It was the fourteenth time I try to call him. But like the previous attempts, no one answered.

From the amount of?my failed tries and having to listen to the same voice over and over again, I memorized the lines.

Sighing, I returned the phone on top of the?night table. Then I shifted my gaze to my daughter.

Faith Vienne was lying inside her crib, flailing her arms in the air. I picked her up and carried her towards the terrace for a breath of fresh air.

The soft whistle of cold wind helped ease a bit of my stress. Slowly, I calm down.

It's a beautiful day, I thought. My eyes sweeping to the scenic clear blue sky looking like a scene straight out of a painting as ist spread through the horizon.

As I enjoyed the view and the soft caress of the cold wind, I prayed to the heavens that Ace is safe wherever he is now.

Even if it takes long for Ace to return, perhaps it would take days or even a week, I will wait for him.

And if by chance he does not return then it's time to take action….

I rocked Faith Vienne into my arms and sang her a song until she sleepily yawned and closed her adorable eyes.

When my daughter was fast asleep, I entered my room then laid a soft kiss on her rosy cheeks before lowering her into the queen size bed.

While I was arranging the pillows around my little girl, there was a soft rustle of movement behind me. When I looked in the direction of the doors, there Elisa stood.

"Have you called Ace?" She asked as she swiftly moved closer and?sat on the edge of the bed.

I shook my head and weakly mumbled 'no.'

Seeing the sad look upon my face, she smiled and cheered me up. "Don't worry,?he will be here soon, his trip was simply delayed."

"I hope so." I replied. Hoping my best friend was right.

While Elisa was there, I took a quick bath and changed into a fit pink t-shirt and jeans. After I emerged from the bathroom, I grabbed the car keys on the top of the night table and headed to the door.

"Take care Beatrix," Elisa said as I headed to the door. 𝘧𝔯e𝗲𝙬ℯ𝙗𝓷o𝘷e𝗹.𝐜𝑜𝒎

"Thanks a lot Lis. Promise, I will be quick,?I just need to buy diapers and a feeding bottle ...."

"No problem," She replied. f𝘳ℯℯ𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oν𝑒Ɩ.c𝑜𝙢

I opened the door and closed it behind me. The house was extremely quiet. It became like that when Ace left. Perhaps it was just my imagination.

The foyer was empty. Madam Stella was nowhere to be seen. I want to ask her if she wants me to buy something for her.

I shrugged my shoulders and walked outside the house.

The refreshing cold wind brushes past me. It was a cloudy day, a beautiful opportunity?for a picnic. Unfortunately, Ace wasn't here yet so I need to move my plans until he arrives.

I climbed inside the car, put my seatbelt on, and turned the engine. The car slowly made its way towards the gates.

It was boring to drive alone under the exquisite blue sky. I'm used to having Ace follow me like a shadow wherever I go. Now that he's away, I feel the nagging emptiness.

To cheer myself up, I turned the radio on. A heartbreak song blasted on the speaker and my mood plummeted to the ground.

I turned the radio off. It wasn't helping me anyway.

Sighing, I focused my attention on the road.

The car?behind me caught my attention. I noticed it in the rear view mirror?after I left the estate. It did not overtake my car even if it had the chance. I could not help but wonder if it was tailing me or I'm just paranoid here.

After a thirty minute drive, my car halted into the parking area in front of the supermarket.?The car that had been following my car drove past me. I sighed,

relieved that it was not what I thought.

The guard opened the door as I got inside. I mumbled a quick thank you before I picked a cart and pushed it towards the baby section.

I grabbed a three piece set of assorted color baby bottles displayed on the rack and loaded it on the cart. When I finished, I moved forward.

The cart pulled into a halt when I reached the area where diapers are displayed. Carefully, I selected the most trusted and tested brand and?grabbed three large packs?and placed it inside the cart. Three large packs of diapers is equivalent to three weeks to one month's supply. I always buy diapers in bulk since I hate going to crowded supermarkets every week.

I headed straight into the counter where a long queue was waiting. When it's my turn, I paid the cashier in cash.

Five minutes later, I emerged out of the door carrying the items I purchased. Hurriedly, I made my way to where my car was parked. When I reached the spot, I pulled the compartment open and loaded the items inside before closing it again.

An ominous feeling descended on me after I climbed inside the car and closed the door. Before I could turn the engine, things escalated quickly.

A muscular arm hooked around my neck, suspending my breathing. A piercing scream tore from my lips.
