"Grandfather, he's been kidnapped," she said with anxiety etched on her face.
Ed's nervousness turned into fear – fear for Adrianna's safety.
Niiya was the son of the head of the council. If Niiya had been kidnapped, his father would have definitely asked for help from all of his resources, including the people at the council.
Ed had to find him. Or else, Adrianna would be in immense danger. He asked, "How do you know that he was kidnapped?"
"The police are suspecting that. He went for a jog in the morning and hasn't returned. There are sniffer dogs in the house and around the area," she replied.
"When did this happen?" he asked.
"This morning Grandfather. I had rushed out of the house after Ookashi sent me a message about Niiya. I am worried about his safety. Moreover, the police are asking me to come to the police station and tell me about his interaction with me," she said.
"Do they know about you and Niiya?" he prodded.
