Deborah wouldn't agree with William's suggestion. "What if the kidnappers don't call us?"

"That won't happen. Didn't you say that the kidnappers wanted 20 million dollars?"

"That was what the kidnappers said to threaten me before this, but they might change their minds after so long. What if the kidnappers hurt her? That money doesn't mean much to us and we're willing to pay any amount as long as the kidnappers don't hurt Azalea."

"Grandma, don't worry. I'll arrange for someone to look for Azalea." William had no choice but to agree when he saw how worried Deborah was.

"Don't call the police. I'm afraid that the kidnappers will kill Azalea if they know we made a report!" Deborah reminded again.

"I know. Grandma, don't worry. I promise you with my life that nothing will happen to Azalea."

Callum's phone rang as soon as William made his promise. Emily called. "Did something happen to Azalea?"

"No!" Callum still wanted to hide it from Emily, but s

    Marcus replied half an hour after William called him, "Azalea is currently hiding on a farm outside the city and I've already determined her position. What should we do next, Mr. Howard?" "Do you know who she has been in touch with these days?" Marcus replied, "I didn't arrange for anyone to pay attention to her, so I'm not sure who she has contacted. Mr. Howard, would you like me to investigate this?" "There's no need for that!" William frowned. He remembered that Valeria said that if Azalea had been to the identification centre, she would've gone there to do a DNA test with Emily. However, he did not take it to heart Emily was not related to Azalea at all. After all, Azalea would give up after the results came out. Did this matter have nothing to do with Azalea? Who was the culprit then? But Valeria said that Paisley was there as well. Has Paisley been watching Azalea all this time? Did she know the whole story, or did she exchange Azal

    When the man saw that Azalea was unconscious, he let go of her and covered her mouth. He ordered the driver with a smile on his face, "Speed up! We need to change cars to go up the mountain and we can have a taste of her later." His accomplice immediately sped up after hearing his words. After the car stopped in a remote place, the man carried Azalea out of the car and entered an off-road vehicle. He changed the fake license plate on the vehicle and drove the vehicle deep into the pitch-black forest. It was already midnight when Azalea regained consciousness. She was woken up by the cold and she heard the coarse laughter of the man. She sneezed. "Achoo!" "Is the heiress finally awake?" A teasing voice came. It was the man who had covered her mouth and made her faint. Azalea looked him, but she could not see the man's face clearly because of the dark surroundings. She was filled with inexplicable fear when she felt the man's gaze on her. She felt so uncomfortable that

    Azalea struggled with all her might, but the pain as the thorns pierced into her flesh was unbearable that she fainted again. The other party spat when he saw that Azalea had fainted. He then picked up his phone and sent a photo of Azalea's hand and the broken fingernail on the ground. He soon received a reply, "The employer is very satisfied. You can leave now! By the way, you can't let her call for help, so you need to dislocate her jaw before you leave the scene immediately." "Got it!" The man reached out and pulled on Azalea's chin forcefully until it was dislocated with a resounding crack. The man cursed, "Okay! Let's go! Damn it, I thought she was someone important, but she's just a piece of shit. How unlucky can we be?!" The two of them muttered to themselves as they turned around to leave, but two figures suddenly appeared behind them. They shouted when they heard the sound, "Who is it?" "Make a guess!" The two newcomers quickly took action a

    Meanwhile, in the hospital, Deborah kept urging Fandrey to get news of Azalea. Emily also rushed to the hospital from home. Emily could no longer pretend after knowing that Azalea had been kidnapped. Her eyes were swollen from crying and she kept repeating to Callum, "I only want her to come back safely! I can do anything as long as she can return safely!" The only thing Callum could do was to comfort her. "Don't worry, William has already arranged for people to search for her. Since the kidnappers are after the money, they will definitely call us again. Let's wait and see. Don't worry, Emily. As long as the kidnappers let Azalea go, I won't hesitate even if I need to sacrifice all of my assets." Callum and the Floyd family would never give up on Azalea. However, what Emily was worried about was not the ransom. She was afraid that Ornard's subordinates were the ones that kidnapped Azalea. If that was the case, Ornard would definitely not let Azalea live. "

    Azalea was found by the police and sent to the hospital early in the morning while the two kidnappers were taken away by the police. Emily, Callum, and Deborah all rushed to Azalea's ward when they heard that she had been found. Azalea closed her eyes and fell asleep on the bed after the wounds were bandaged. Deborah didn't know that Azalea's finger had been cut off, so she heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Azalea safe and sound. "I'm so thankful she's alright!" Emily held Azalea's hand carefully with red eyes and tears kept rolling down her cheeks. Deborah noticed and immediately asked, "What's wrong with her hand? Is it hurt?" Emily was choked with sobs while Callum's eyes were red and he didn't answer. The nurse next to him heard Deborah's question and answered, "Her finger was cut off!" "What? Her finger is gone? How... how could this be?" Deborah's heart ached and she kept complaining, "What about William? Didn't they say that she would be unscathe

    William's car stopped in front of Lucian's house at half-past eleven in the morning. Lucian was pushed out of the house by a guard. "Hello, William! Please come in!" William nodded indifferently when he was welcomed into the house and Lucian said respectfully, "Please have a seat, William! Would you like some tea?" "There's no need for that. Let's get down to business!" William sat down on the sofa. Lucian looked at her nurse and said, "You can leave first, I have something to say to William." Lucian lowered her head and she didn't dare to look at William when the nurse left. "William, I have a few things to tell you today and the first thing is about what I did. I'm not a good person. I know Gurmisran and I even worked with him before. There's a big shot behind Gurmisran, but I don't know who he is at present. He's very mysterious and he had a lot of schemes. Raelyn and Declan were his accomplices as well. I'm afraid that he will hurt you..." "What'

    William sat down and said, "Thank you!" "Why are you so being so polite?" Braelynn took the initiative to put some food on William's plate. "I heard from Richard that Angel is pregnant? Is that true?" "Yes!" William also put some food into Braelynn's bowl. "You should eat more as well!" "The Floyd family doesn't know that Angel is pregnant, right? When are you going to expose her? I'm a little worried that the Floyd family will blame you." "Don't worry, they won't. Not only will they not blame me, but they will also thank me." "Isn't that impossible? I think Deborah is a little unreasonable and she has always been protecting Angel. The reason why Angel is so shameless is because she is used to being spoilt. Fandrey and Callum are better, but Angel's pregnancy is not a small matter. No matter how good the Floyd family is, they will not tolerate such a thing." William smiled and said when he saw Braelynn's worried look, "It's okay. It's not a big deal.

    Deborah answered the phone and asked, "Callum, did Azalea wake up?" Callum replied gloomily, "Yes!" "It's good that she has woken up! I have been worried about her. How is she now? She must be frightened after being treated that way." "Yes, she was scared out of her wits. She shouted as soon as she woke up and she kept crying" When Callum mentioned this, he thought of Azalea's face full of snot and felt sick. "Poor child, she must be traumatized. You should arrange for someone to find a good psychologist to give her some therapy." "Okay!" "I asked the staff to make some nourishing soup and I'll bring it to her right away." Callum immediately stopped her. "Mom, you're not in good health. Just ask Auntie to send it over, you don't have to come." "Why not? She's part of the Floyd family and she has been wandering outside by herself for so many years. She has suffered so much. What is Emily thinking? Why is she so cruel?" Deborah began to com

    On the day of Azalea's recovery, she was escorted out of the hospital by two police officers to wait for her sentence. She was wearing shackles and handcuffs as she walked through the parking lot. She saw Michael with Abbie, who was holding Emma in her arms. Michael was holding Abbie's waist, ready to get into their car. Seeing that Michael had recovered, Azalea was extremely perplexed. She had learned from the police that Leonard's man had tried to kill her to silence her and knew that Leonard was using her, so she did not regret her vicious behavior. Azalea stared at the child in Abbie's arms and Michael as she started to have vicious thoughts. If the one who got injured that day was Abbie, and if Abbie died, everything would be different now, wouldn't it? Michael would be living a life worse than death. His child would not have a mother anymore, and no one could have what she couldn't. She would be satisfied. However, all of this was just her imaginatio

    After Leonard's matter was settled, Richard returned to the Clark family. Abbie wasn't asleep yet and was sitting alone in the living room in a daze. Richard walked to her and sat down. Then, he reached out and patted her on the shoulder. "Why aren't you asleep yet?" "I can't sleep. Richard, he... he will be fine, won't he?" "Don't think too much. He will be fine." "I don't want anything to happen to him... Richard, I actually hate him very much and have never thought of being with him again. I have suffered enough! Every time I made up my mind to cut all ties with him, something bad would happen like what happened now. Richard, what should I do?" Richard understood Abbie's dilemma. "Abbie, do you still love him?" "I don't know! I hate him! I hate him so much!" "You can't let him go, can you? You and he broke up three times, but he has always been in your heart." Richard sighed. "To be honest, I don't want you and him to start over again. After

    It was late at night in Azalea's ward as she lay on the bed and fell asleep with her eyes closed. Three of Azalea's ribs were broken while one of her hands was handcuffed to the hospital bed. The policeman guarding her felt that there was no way she could escape, so he relaxed his guard. The man who was arranged by Leonard's assistant had been waiting for the right moment in the hospital. Then, they immediately entered the ward and attacked Azalea when they saw that the policeman had left. Just as they covered Azalea's mouth and were about to suffocate her to death, a soft voice could be heard by the door of the ward. "Hey! Are you trying to silence her?" The man turned his head and saw that Bobby were taking photos with his mobile phone while Silas was bent over in laughter. Later, Leonard was woken up at 2 a.m. in the morning when Richard and his bodyguards came to visit him furiously. Leonard had already guessed the purpose of Richard's visit as soon as

  • That Stranger Lying Beside Me   Chapter 1745 Despise Abbie

    It had been two days since Leonard's assistant brought Azalea back to the city and she was specially sent here today to attack Michael. Although Azalea hated Michael, she did love him immensely in the past and she didn't want to kill him. The one she hated the most was still Abbie. She had been overshadowed by Abbie since she was a child and she had never won against her before. It was all thanks to Abbie now that she ended up like this. Michael wouldn't deal with her if it weren't for Abbie, and she wouldn't have been driven to a dead end like this. She was going to die in the end anyway, so she wanted nothing more than to drag Abbie down with her. She knew that she couldn't get close to Abbie. Besides, she also knew very well that Leonard wanted to use her to kill Michael so that he could marry Abbie. Azalea acted as if she had been persuaded by Leonard's assistant to attack Michael, but in fact, her target was Abbie all along. She saw how desperat

    Azalea looked up when she heard the voice and met Leonard's assistant's gaze in the car. She stopped crying once he got out of the car. "Miss Clark, I've been looking for you everywhere!" Azalea lowered her head frantically when she saw him, but he said warmly, "Miss Clark, get in the car." She didn't know if Leonard's assistant knew about the murder she'd committed, so she hesitated for a moment before getting into the car. He then gave her a bottle of water and some food. Azalea was famished because she hadn't eaten anything for a few days, so she wolfed down her food desperately. Leonard's assistant had been observing Azalea all this time, and he said once she finished eating, "I know what you've done! The police are now looking for you everywhere." Azalea's expression was filled with panic. "Are you going to hand me over to the police?" "No, I'm here to help you." "How can you do that?" Azalea asked in frustration. "I won't be a

    It started to rain again early in the morning, which made the air in the mountains damp and cold. Meanwhile, Azalea lay motionlessly on the messy bed. She could hear the child's wailing from outside while Monthel's mother tried to coax the child. However, there was no sign of it ending even after some time. Monthel's mother started to become angry as well, so she scolded the child and eventually began to target Azalea again. "Why are you still lying in bed at this time? I've never seen someone as lazy as you. A wife should get up early in the morning to cook, but you are the only one who will laze around like this!" This was not the first time that Azalea had been scolded. Monthel's mother had begun to pick on her the second day after she arrived. Azalea would fight back initially, but she no longer dared to talk back after she was slapped in the face by Monthel. Monthel's mother cursed outside for a while. Then, she lifted the curtain and came into the ro

    Leonard's expression turned very ugly, but Richard did not give him a chance to even catch his breath. "After I learnt of your relationship with her, I sent someone to extract the DNA of the fetus in Evelyn's belly and compare it with yours. The results show that she's indeed pregnant with your child, but you can verify it personally if you don't believe me." Since Richard dared to say this, there was no possibility for Leonard to turn the tables. The veins on Leonard's forehead bulged as he was filled with humiliation. He initially wanted to get back at Fandrey by asking him to propose the marriage to the Clark family, but she ended up being embarrased like this. He was furious, but Richard continued, "We are very grateful to you for saving Abbie's life. Although she can't marry you, we can continue to be friends if you want to." What could Leonard say? He had done a terrible mistake, so he couldn't possibly tell Richard that he wanted to cut all ties between t

    Abbie tried her best to escape, but it was useless. Michael even kissed her on the face a few times, which made her so angry that her voice trembled. "Michael... F*ck you... I'm going to kill you!" Michael turned a deaf ear to her words because he hadn't been so close to Abbie for such a long time. He missed her like crazy, so how could he bring himself to let her go? Abbie kept struggling desperately, but her physical strength was no match for Michael's. Michael then carried her back to the sofa, which made her furious because she couldn't escape. "Michael, what are you trying to do?" Michael did not answer her at all. Instead, he just hugged her so tightly as if he didn't want to let her go at all. He hugged her for such a long time that her whole body had gone numb. "Michael, what's wrong with you? Let go of me! I can't move!" It was only then did Michael let go of Abbie. Her limbs had already gone numb and she felt extremely uncomfortable. Just t

    Michael happily placed the coffee he ordered for Abbie in front of her. "Here, I've ordered your favourite coffee." However, Abbie sneered and picked up the coffee to splash it all over him. The coffee was very hot, but Michael just smiled bitterly and said, "Do you hate me so much?" "What do you think?" Abbie looked at Michael coldly without any affection in her eyes. "My feelings for you have never changed! What happened between me and Azalea is all fake, and I've never had anything to do with her. The news with Anastasia was also fake. I was the one who used her to provoke Azalea, but Leonard made up those news articles to get back at me. I swear, I haven't been with anyone else apart from you!" Abbie let out a cold laugh, "Really?" "I'm serious! I swear that I'm not lying to you!" "There's no need to swear, or else even you'll beleive your own lies." Michael became desperate when it was obvious that Abbie didn't believe him. "What do I have
