After more than ten minutes, Malcolm returned with a pale face and reported in a low voice, "Sir, Mrs. Ford has been kidnapped..."Blake's eyes darkened, and he had an ominous look as he turned to Malcolm. "What did you say?"Malcolm showed Blake the surveillance footage. "This is the surveillance footage from this morning. Mrs. Ford left Newphoria Bay and took a taxi, but then, she disappeared.""What about surveillance footage from other places?""They'd all been intentionally destroyed," Malcolm answered.A cold glint flashed across Blake's eyes. "Are you telling me that she disappeared after getting into the taxi?""Yes."So, it was a premeditated kidnapping.Blake's expression was blank as he asked, "Can we track down the driver?""No..." Malcolm said. But upon seeing Blake's ominous expression, he changed his phrasing and replied, "We haven't found him yet. Our people need some time. The kidnapping was premeditated.""It could be Brian." Brian was the only suspect that
Just as Janice was about to put on a pitiful act, Blake ran out of patience. He tightened his grip, causing her face to turn white."I'll talk! I'll talk..." Janice couldn't breathe, and her face was turning purple.But just as she was about to suffocate, Blake finally let go.Janice fell back to the ground, drenched in sweat and looking wretched.Blake looked down at her. His face was expressionless as he asked, "Where is Brian hiding?"Janice held her neck and took a few breaths before weakly saying, "I don't know. He just sent me an email."Upon hearing this, Blake took a step toward her.Janice was frightened and moved back. She trembled as she explained, "Even though I don't know where he is, I can show you the email. You can trace it through the IP address..."Blake finally stopped in his tracks and called Malcolm over.Janice breathed a sigh of relief as her heart raced. Then, as soon as Malcolm brought the computer over, she typed in her email.Malcolm opened the emai
Blake's murderous gaze gradually faded as he listened to Malcolm's words. He kicked Janice away and coldly said, "Change your face back to your original look. If I ever see you imitating her again, I'll disfigure you."Janice's head hit the coffee table. She then shivered uncontrollably, not daring to say a word.After that, Blake walked out with Malcolm following behind.Blake glanced at the cloudy sky. Then, he got into the car.Throughout the car ride, Blake reflected on and regretted his actions. He thought about how he shouldn't have tried to surprise Yasmin. If he had personally picked her up at Newphoria Bay and taken her to NAS Group, she wouldn't have gotten kidnapped.Upon thinking of this, Blake's eyes grew dark and gloomy.Suddenly, his phone rang.It was a call from Roxy.Blake answered it."Blake, why are you having people watch us and not letting us go out? This is illegal confinement, you know?" Roxy angrily complained on the other end of the line. She co
"I didn't," Yasmin said, denying it. Brian was acting like a madman now. So, Yasmin didn't want to anger him and risk suffering the consequences."You didn't? Then why did you give me a fake document?""I never touched the document. I saw the FH221 written on it and took a picture. I didn't think too much about it at the time...""You lied to me." Brian's cold fingertips tightly pinched Yasmin's chin. His menacing eyes bore a hole into her as he said, "If you had really deceived him, how could he have forgiven you? "After you disappeared, he issued a warrant to the entire city. Yet, you're still lying and saying that you're on my side?""He's looking for me?" Yasmin was surprised."Yes. His people are monitoring the customs stations and the airports. It's difficult to leave Stanton City."Yasmin was stunned. She didn't expect that Blake would mobilize a city-wide search to find her."I won't let you off so easily for doing this to me," Brian said with a cold smile, a malic
For the sake of the child, Yasmin had to say this. Otherwise, if these men forced themselves on her, the child would definitely be in danger.Yasmin couldn't hide the fact that she was pregnant anymore. She said, "You can humiliate me if you want, but if something happens to Blake's child, your whole family will suffer. Do you really want to cause trouble for your whole family? "If you want a way out, you can go abroad. With money, you can still live well. There's no need to go seeking death, right?"Yasmin was betting now—she was betting that Brian still wanted to live and that his family's lives mattered to him.After hearing this, Brian narrowed his eyes and looked at her. He smiled and said, "Yasmin, you really surprise me every time."He then got up and walked over to Yasmin. He casually pushed aside a bodyguard and squatted in front of her. "How many months has it been?""Almost four months," Yasmin quickly replied and breathed a sigh of relief. She had won the bet. Br
Or was she lying to Brian on purpose to buy time?Blake couldn't figure out what was going on. But suddenly, he thought about how Yasmin had been behaving around him recently.She always had a good appetite and would occasionally vomit. She was also very attentive to her stomach whenever she was going out. Not to mention, her waist had become a bit thicker than before.Blake then suddenly recalled the time when she was in the hospital's obstetrics department. She had bumped into him and looked panicked.Blake narrowed his eyes. So, at that time, she was already pregnant?But why didn't she tell him?Just as Blake was lost in thought, the phone beside him rang.Blake picked it up. He said coldly, "Hello?""Blake, it's me," Brian's voice came from the other end of the line. "Your wife and child are in my hands. I advise you not to act rashly."Brian emphasized the word "child".Blake's eyes narrowed. He said in a deep voice, "What do you want?""I want you to prepare a pri
Yasmin felt anxious as she drank the water.Coincidentally, another pregnant woman was beside her. While Yasmin was getting water, she blocked her hand from Brian's view and slipped a note into the pregnant woman's hand.After getting the water, Yasmin casually walked away as if nothing had happened.The pregnant woman glanced at Yasmin only after she had left. Then, she saw Yasmin quietly sitting in front of several men and drinking the water.Everything seemed normal, but Yasmin's face was very pale.The pregnant woman had a strange feeling in her heart. Then, she walked a few steps away before opening the note Yasmin had given her.It read, "My name is Yasmin Starr. I'm being threatened. Please contact my husband and tell him that I'm here. His phone number is..."Yasmin had secretly written this note while she was in the basement.She had thought that if she couldn't find an opportunity to escape, it would be better to seek help than to do nothing at all.The pregnant wo
Brian laughed grimly. "Good. Blake tricked me into coming here for an ultrasound and set me up. "Yasmin, it's not that I don't want you alive, but Blake doesn't want you alive. If you want to blame anyone, blame him."Then, Brian pulled the trigger.At that moment, Yasmin felt a chill engulfing her from head to toe. It sent shivers down her spine.Perhaps she was truly going to die now.As death approached, time seemed to slow down. But suddenly, a strange courage surged within Yasmin. And in that instant, she leaped up, pushed Brian away, and ran.Shocked, Brian pulled the trigger.The sound of the bullet brushed past Yasmin's ears. Then, she heard a "bang" as the bullet lodged itself into the body.However, the one who fell to the ground was Brian.Brian's shot earlier had missed. Then, a shot from the front door had hit Brian, and he'd fallen to the ground.Then, a tall, dark figure ran from around the corner and held Yasmin in a warm embrace.Yasmin was stunned and ca
