One, his father opened the door and let the kidnappers in. Two, the kidnappers had the keys with them and let themselves in.
As he was thinking, George Ken looked up at the pinhole camera inserted in the wall. His father had asked him to install the camera. It was aimed to record Karen Daly when she came over to visit.
He didn't expect this camera to come in handy in such a special situation.
George rushed to his study and turned on his computer.
The surveillance camera recorded every second of footage when he was not at home.
At 8:13 pm, two men who were disguised as plumbing workers rang the doorbell.
Because of his father's appearance, they had agreed that Herbert Ken wouldn't answer the door although George was not at home.
Herbert heard the doorbell. He walked towards the door and looked through the peephole. He didn't recognize the men at the door. So, he returned silently to the study.
The two men waited at the door for a while, and when the door wasn't answered, they took out a key and unlocked the door.
As he heard the door open, Herbert thought that George had returned. He walked out of the study and shouted "George". As soon as he said that, he realized that it wasn't George who was at the door.
He became nervous and wanted to return to the study, but before he could move, he was captured by the two men already.
"Who are you? What do you want?" He asked, struggling.
"Why do you ask so much?" One of the men asked while knocking him unconscious.
Herbert fainted. One of the men became worried and asked in a panic, "You hit him so hard. What if he's hurt? Assistant Black gave us special instructions. He's the father of the master's wife! We can't go too far."
Assistant Black?
Was it Nick Black?
The master's wife?
These clues pointed directly to Kevin and Karen.
Could it bethem?
Nick had been by Kevin's side for more than ten years. He was loyal to Kevin. Everything he did was under Kevin's instructions.
Does this mean that the mastermind behind all this was Kevin?
Could it really be Kevin?
Would Kevin pretend to be a good person while secretly ordering people to kidnap their father?
George didn't know. He wasn't sure, but he also did not have the courage to call Kevin up.
If he really did this, he couldn't let him know that there was a surveillance camera here. His father would definitely be killed.
Time was running out. In a short period of time, George was in a state of chaos. He didn't know what to do.
He can't find someone else to help.
Calling the police would be worse!
In short, he couldn't tell anyone before he was sure who had kidnapped his father.
Just then, his cell phone rang. It was Karen calling. George was excited as he thought he had one last hope.
He answered immediately, "Karen..."
He wanted her to question Kevin on his behalf, but he swallowed his words.
For now, he was just guessing. He had no definite evidence that Kevin was involved in anything.
