“Sarah went missing this afternoon when she went out to buy something. I couldn’t even contact her. Only when I asked the housekeeper did I learn that she hadn't returned to the seaside villa at all. I checked the surveillance cameras and found that someone covered her mouth and brought her into the car when she was in the car park of a shopping mall.”Rodney said furiously, “Come back right now! Now that you’ve dumped her, she might not be able to survive if this bunch of people who’ve kidnapped her are hooligans.”“I’m coming back now.”Shaun rose to his feet.Catherine hugged him from behind and cast a flirtatious look at him. “Shaun, are you going to leave me behind?”“You can come with me,” Shaun whispered.“But I don’t want to meddle in Sarah’s affairs. Just let Rodney and Chester save her,” Catherine responded with a low voice.Those words made Shaun’s eyes flash with grimness.Subsequently, Rodney’s howl sounded from the phone as the call had not ended.“Catherine Jone
Chance asked the hacker to play the recorded footage. “The car that was used to kidnap Miss Neeson left the car park and headed to the parking area of a nearby playground in the suburb. As the playground has just opened to the public, there are no surveillance cameras in the parking area. It’s a little problematic.“When we got there, there was already no one in the car. We suspect that the kidnappers have left with another car. Through our inspection of every car last night, we can confirm that it’s a black Santana.”Chester said, “From what I just heard, the Santana traveled to the forest in Cheney Hill before going missing.”“Stop droning on. Let’s get there first,” Rodney said impatiently, “It’s been one night. Many things might’ve already happened.”Those words made everyone’s face turn somber.After Shaun got into the car, he sped past the vehicles on the road, heading toward the suburb. On his way there, he asked, “Have you found out who did it?”“We still can’t see the ki
As soon as Sarah finished speaking, she closed her eyes as if she was dead.“Sarah!” Shaun screamed anxiously. He placed his hand by her nose and noticed that she was still breathing shallowly.“Chester, come and save her at once!” Distraught, Shaun roared at Chester.On the other hand, Rodney was so furious that his eyes reddened. “Chester, you must save her, please.”“I will.”Chester promptly asked Shaun to lay Sarah on the ground. Fortunately, he had brought along a first aid kit this morning.After he spent over ten minutes treating Sarah, she let out a moan in an unconscious state. She still remained unconscious.“I’ve tried my best. Although she’s out of danger for now, she needs to be sent to the hospital as soon as possible, or she’ll suffer from a shock in the brain,” Chester said in a deep voice. “Alright. I’ll send her to the hospital right now.”Shaun swiftly carried Sarah and ran toward his car. After he found his car, he raced to the hospital as fast as lightni
“Get up.” Shaun clenched his fists.“No.” Rodney gnashed his teeth with an imploring gaze. “Shaun, the doctor has managed to rescue her, but what if she has nothing else to look forward to after this? What about tomorrow and the day after tomorrow? If she hadn’t encouraged you back in the mental hospital, you probably would’ve given up. Later, she took up psychology because of you. If it weren’t for her three years ago, you would’ve gone insane. Why can’t you sympathize with her a little? You just have to be so cruel, huh?”Shaun’s temples twitched. He turned around to walk out of the ward straight away.Rodney gripped his leg. “Shaun, I beg you. If you don’t agree, I’ll continue to kneel here.”“Rodney, as my buddy, you’re not supposed to threaten me like this.”Shaun broke free from his grip and strode out.“Rodney, get up.” Chester let out a sigh. “I understand that you want Sarah to be happy, but you can’t build her happiness on someone’s pain. Shaun has been feeling guilty o
Shaun continued to look at the photo. His tall and straight figure seemed to be surrounded by frostiness.He was completely dazed.He simply could not believe that Catherine was the one who got this man to kidnap Sarah.“You still trust her, huh?”Rodney snatched the photo and swung it in front of him. “Look, they’re the same. Don’t you get it yet? This is Catherine’s trap. You’ve been trapped!“She has long since arranged for someone to kidnap Sarah. After that, she lured you to Hobart so that she could get the man to kidnap Sarah. If I hadn’t learned about it and got there soon enough, Sarah might have been killed. This woman is too cruel!”Shaun remained motionless. He only gazed at Chester. “What do you think?”Chester’s eyes carried a complicated look. “I think… what Rodney said makes sense. Catherine has a motive, and what’s more, she knows the kidnapper. I previously reminded you that she might have a hidden agenda when she decided to be with you again.” “If you still r
“Just admit it.” Rodney scoffed. “Catherine Jones, I’m giving you two options now. You can either go to jail or let my subordinates have their fun with you. Only then will I let you off the hook.”Catherine chuckled. “For someone like you who isn’t even eligible to inherit the Snow family’s properties, you’re nothing. I’m sure this bunch of people are not the masters from Snow Corporation. If you guys have the guts, you can band together and attack me. Let me see how great you are.”Rodney was so exasperated that his expression changed drastically. At this moment, Shaun had rushed over.He slammed the brakes to stop in front of their cars. He immediately got out.He was still wearing the same shirt as when he had hurriedly left in the wee hours of the morning. Nevertheless, his exquisitely handsome face looked extremely fierce, which was completely different from his gentle appearance yesterday. At the sight of Shaun, Rodney snorted. “Shaun, you came at the right time. She’s admi
Shaun remained silent, but he clearly agreed with Rodney.As Catherine watched the glow in Shaun’s eyes dim little by little, her heart was overwhelmed with sarcasm. She mocked herself for being touched by his words 24 hours ago.After going through so many hardships, had it still not hit her that this man was a liar?When he wanted her, he could say everything.“Shaun, I just want to ask you one thing. What can I do so that you’ll let Logan go?” Catherine asked in a low voice.“Let him go?” Rodney reacted as if he had heard a joke. “Are you dreaming? He hurt Sarah. People like him should be tortured to death. By the way, why are you so worried about someone who works for you? Could it be that you’re having an affair with him?”“Watch your mouth.”As soon as Catherine warned Rodney severely, she could clearly sense the sudden fury in Shaun’s frosty eyes.Deep down, she was cursing Rodney. She even hoped that he would not have any descendants nor get together with the woman he l
Rodney had once destroyed the Snow family’s reputation previously, but that had to do with his private life. If he made a move against Catherine this time, it would most probably cause everyone to boycott the Snow family for the election next year.“If you plan to arrest me, you’d better have evidence first,” Catherine said nonchalantly. With that, she turned around to leave.“Hold on. You’re leaving, but have you asked me?” Shaun approached her with a stony expression. “Did I say you can leave?”Rodney’s eyes lit up. “Shaun, seize her and send her to Liona to torture her.”“You’re planning to seize me, huh?”Catherine looked into Shaun’s eyes, her gaze revealing a rare look of grimness.His heart tightened in an instant. Suddenly, he had no idea what to say.He knew if he did it, the conflict between them would intensify. However, now that she had done such a wicked thing, could he actually pretend that nothing had happened? “Shaun, why are you hesitating?” Rodney thundered,
