Tess loud shriek was what drew every other person's attention to us. 

"What's wrong?" My mom asked looking at Tess but she said nothing.

   How do I break the news to them, especially to Evie and her parents?

  " Kelvin where's Shayan? Evie keeps on asking for her." Her dad spoke up.

"Tess please take Evie to her room" Tess carried Evie from Shayan's dad and went upstairs, I could see the guards following them. Heck, what if one of them was in it too. I don't even know what to do.

   " Uhmm...she...she was... kidnapped." I finished, slurring the words not looking at their faces, I felt so ashamed right now. I wasn't able to protect her.

"She was what?" Her mother let out a loud scream

"Do you have any idea who did it?" Her dad asked calmly and I nodded.

  " Let's all go inside so we can talk about it." My mom suggested and we nodded following her in.

   Once we sat down I could feel everyone's eye on me urging me to reveal what I knew.

"Who took her Kelvin?" Her mom snapped at me.

"Carlos." I replied, the fury surging through me.

  "Carlos? Your bestfriend Carlos?" That's what everyone seemed to have chorused, the shock evident in their tone and faces.

"Why would he do that?" Her dad asked quizzically.

"Because he wants Shayan." That was the only thing I could think of, that must be his motive.

   The head security Williams welcomed the police officers in.
"So the case is that your wife was kidnapped by your ex best friend, any evidence to prove?" The officer in charge of the case asked.

"He has been sending her threatening messages to kidnap our daughter, it should be on her phone and then there's proof from the CCTV." I replied, I heard someone gasp when I said he has been sending threatening messages to kidnap Evie.

  "Can we see her phone to check the last message sent?" Geoff the second police offer spoke up.

"I didn't see her phone anywhere." I replied.

"When was the last time you saw her?"

"That should be around 6:50, nearly an hour ago." I replied looking at my watch.

"So it can be possible that her phone is with her then." The third officer,a woman asked and I nodded.

  "Has he called or sent a text, did he leave a note, I want a record of the people that came and their time of departure." Williams spoke up, his tone rising with authority.

   This was going to be a long night.

   We went first to the room and they analyzed the scenario that happened. Perhaps he had come in when she was leaving, she dropped the album and then he drugged her and pulled her out. We then went to check the CCTV footage. I also gave them the list of invited guests, we accesed each of them most especially the ones that left in the last hour.

"Can you make a list of the properties he has?"

  I listed all the properties that I know he has and then they began their search.

  One of the officers led the team to check out the properties and the other was going through the surveillance cameras at the gate assessing the guests that left.

"The only person that seems to have left the house during the incident happens to be Jess or is there an alternative exit?" Williams asked

"It's just the main estate gate.'' I replied, what are they trying to insinuate?
