The Kidnapping

By Bo Widerberg

When Jack Lord and Belle were having their morning coffee, the telephone gave a sharp ring. Jack lifted the receiver, and said. "Jack Lord here." A very quiet voice asked him to have a meeting at Kings and Twelfth at three o'clock. "I believe we have another case," Jack said, and asked if Belle would join him. "So what are we looking for?" She asked. "Someone kidnapped this mans wife, and he want us to meet him at three." "Well that gives as some time," answered Belle. "I thought we could have an early lunch and meet our new customer a bit early. He sounded so frightened, I'm sure he'll be there early." said Jack as he made himself ready to leave the office. Arriving to the address, they found a donuts place that served coffee, and sat down by a window to check out the crossing. "That man on the other side of the street, he looks very nervous. Should I go and have a word with him? asked Belle. "Yeah, do that. I have a feeling he is our man." Belle went pout, and it was Mr. Landly their new customer. Belle and Landly went back to Jack, and Landly explained that the kidnappers wanted three million dollars, "or they would kill Mrs. Landly. It is impossible to get my hand on that kind of money without the government knows about it." "Let's Belle have a talk with them, and let her explain the situation." Belle had to meet a Julia Swan, a member of the kidnapping gang. As they knew that Belle was not associated with Landly, she was taken prisoner, and tied up together with Mrs. Landly. Jack Lord that had a tracking device installed on Belle's car, where able to follow them. And with Belle's help, the entire kidnapping gang was taken by the police, and Mrs. Landly was safely brought home.

Jack Lord sitting in his favorite office chair, stretched out his arm, and accepted the coffee Belle served him. Looking over to the plate, he picked out the biggest of the chocolate donuts, stretched himself again, and said. Life is great isn’t it?

So you took the biggest one, didn't you? Belle said, looking at Jack with a wry face.

You better believe it honey. With the money, we have earned through our latest crime solving adventures. I can hire another assistant to help you Belle so you wouldn't have to make the coffee, Jack Lord, sitting by his desk, was eying a report that arrived with the mail from his CPA. He had a smile on his face while his assistance Belle making the coffee, and checking the fridge for donuts, asked.

Must have been some good news by the look of that grin on your face Jack. Forget the other assistant, and give me the money instead, she answered in a not too friendly tone, she continued. Just give me the money you would have to give that new assistant. And I will keep making the coffee, answered Belle, as she poured a cup for her boss. I am sorry you cannot have any donuts, there is only one left, and that one is for me, she continued as she with a gracious smile handed the coffee to her boss.

Before Jack has a chance to answer, the phone rang. Jack Lord here, he answered in his usual way.

"They are after me, meet me at Kings and Twelfth at three o'clock
