chapter 73

YOU ARE THE RHYTHM OF MY HEART!GChapter 73 :Yeshwanth grabbed Nandu’s shoulder, giving it a firm squeeze of comfort before commanding,“Gaurav! Send the number to the control room. Trace its whereabouts immediately”.Then turning to Nandu, he added with calm authority,“Nandu! Calm down. Think rationally instead of panicking”.Nandu took a deep breath, trying to compose himself before speaking again, his voice firm and unwavering.“I believe this is Rajveer’s doing. I’ve seen the way he looked at Aadhya—like he wanted to burn her alive on stage. It has to be him”.Muttering those words, Nandu swiftly dialed the number and pressed the phone to his ear, praying someone would answer. But the call went unanswered—it switched to voicemail.Without wasting a second, he dialed another number. As soon as it connected, he barked into the phone,“I’m sending you a mobile number and a car number. Track the person immediately. It’s urgent”.His voice was firm, sharp, and left no room for delay.Ending the call, he rushed toward the exit, followed closely by Akhil, Yeshwanth, and Gaurav. Reaching his car, Nandu yanked open the driver’s door and jumped in, the others quickly taking their seats.With a loud roar of the engine, he hit the accelerator. The screech of the tires drew startled glances from the nearby staff and guards as the vehicle sped through the driveway and burst out of the building’s campus.“Nandu!”, Yeshwanth called from the passenger seat, gripping the handle. Then, with frustration lacing his voice, he asked,“Where do you even plan to search? Do you have any clue where they might’ve taken her?”.Shaking his head in denial, Nandu spoke, his voice carrying the weight of anguish.“No, Dad! I’m not sure where he’s taken her, but give me a moment—I’ll find out his whereabouts and we can head there immediately. My instincts tell me he’s taken her to his farmhouse on the outskirts”, he explained.Within minutes, Nandu received a call from the person he had contacted earlier. The update confirmed Rajveer’s location. Informing the others in the car, Nandu sped off toward the farmhouse, leaving a thick cloud of dust swirling in his wake.Meanwhile, Rajveer drove toward his farmhouse, with Laila in the passenger seat. In the back, Aadhya and Sruthi sat tied up, fear etched on their faces.Aadhya trembled as memories flashed in her mind—how Rajveer had abducted them. A chill ran down her spine, a haunting sense of danger creeping in.It had happened so fast When Akhil stepped away to take a phone call, Aadhya kept walking slowly, expecting him to return soon. But before she could react, someone grabbed her from behind, clamping a hand over her mouth to silence her screams. He dragged her away from the secluded area toward his vehicle.Sruthi saw what was happening and rushed toward Aadhya, but the man seized her too, shoving her into the car. It was then that Aadhya saw his face and recognized him—it was Rajveer, and beside him stood Laila, helping him without hesitation.-  *KRISH*
