They thoroughly searched every corner of Ventropolis, tracing the route to Marisburg, and did not overlook any neighboring cities. Upon receiving the missing persons case, police stations received orders, and officers mobilized immediately.In addition, the security company Zach instructed also went all out to locate Madelyn. It was a comprehensive search, and they almost turned Ventropolis upside down.Zach stayed up all night, patiently waiting for her news the next day. Kai spoke up because he could not stand it anymore, "I know you're worried about her, but skipping rest and medication won't help. If you keep going like this, you'll be a goner before we find Maddie."Zach remained unmoved, eyes closed, tightly clutching the ring. Kai never imagined that when Zach fell for someone, he would become so crazy that he did not even care about his life. At this rate, he would end up killing himself.Kai assisted him with the medication. Just then, Kevin entered, holding something in h
The police told her it was not a big deal. "The wife of the CEO of Jardin Corporation got kidnapped while she was out. If you know anything, it's best to report it immediately.""Oh. Sure." When the hotel's landlady left the police station, she hurried back home, wasted no time packing her stuff, and prepared to leave. She had no idea the lady she hosted had such a status.'If it comes to light, I'd face serious consequences! I've been doing this for so many years and never thought it would go south this time.'After hitting a dead end with the clues, the police began investigating all the vehicles leaving that road. As night fell, an old and grungy place was revealed beneath the glamorous facade."Don't touch me!" Someone took Madelyn into a car. "Where are you taking me?"Two guys beside her tied her up, and their hands wandered all over her. "You're lucky. A big shot in Marisburg has taken an interest in you. We're taking you to meet him. You'd better not pull any stunts when w
Madelyn looked very calm. She was not humble or arrogant. She also did not appear afraid at all."I paint. It's not a big deal. If there's nothing else, I'll walk away now." Madelyn nodded and walked past Eva."You..." A woman wanted to step forward and teach Madelyn a lesson as she thought she was behaving badly. Eva stopped the woman and looked at Madelyn as she left.Madelyn was squatting on the ground, comforting a crying young lady.After chatting with her for a while, Madelyn learned that the young lady had been sold by her parents to Paradise Club in Marisburg.All the women there wore billing devices for customers to swipe their cards. Customers could swipe their cards and pay by the minute if they wanted them. The women could not resist no matter what the customers did, or they would face harsh beatings.The scars on this young lady's body were the best evidence.It would be Madelyn's turn soon.After mulling over the situation, Madelyn asked, "Haven't you tried to esc
It was snowing heavily on the road.The air conditioning in the car was set to a comfortable temperature. Kevin looked at the rearview mirror worriedly, "We'll bring Ms. Jent back. Mr. Jardin, you're still sick. You don't need to go on this trip personally."Zach was unconscious for a while. He wanted to find Madelyn as soon as he woke up.Fortunately, they could finally trace Madelyn's address.The hotel's landlady lied. But under Zach's people's coercion and temptation, she finally told the truth.The police could not do anything to her, but it did not mean Zach's people could not.Zach was never a good person. After he found out that Madelyn was drugged and sent to the club by the hotel's landlady, she merely had her fingers broken and was sent to the police station. If this had happened in the past, Zach would never have allowed her to live.After the court's decision, she would have a hard time in prison.Other than that, the police took the opportunity to crack down on th
Fred stood up. He appeared extremely tall next to Madelyn's petite figure. He looked intimidating and dangerous, causing Madelyn to take a step back. But Fred continued to approach her. He slowly cornered her against the wall until she had no space left to move. He raised his hand, held it against the wall behind Madelyn, and slowly leaned down.In desperation, Madelyn suddenly blurted out, "Fred, you've deceived Mya for so long. Does she not hold any place in your heart?"Madelyn was betting that Fred had some feelings for Mya.She continued, "If you touch me today, Mya will never forgive you for the rest of her life."When Fred heard Mya's name, he stopped moving as if something bothered him. Mya's innocent face and eyes appeared in his mind. He could also hear her voice, 'Fred, I'm hungry.'Fred, I'm thirsty. I want to drink water.'Fred, you're pressing very hard against my tummy.'Fred, I want to sleep a little more...'Madelyn noticed an unusual expression that quickly fl
Madelyn could smell fragrant incense as she stared at the white-colored ceiling. She was still dizzy as she looked at the crystal chandelier above her. She only regained complete consciousness when she heard the sound of water in the bathroom.She subconsciously struggled when she felt her legs being lifted. She raised her head and saw a naked man kneeling between her legs, staring at her lecherously.He said, "Pretty lady, stop acting innocent. I'll give you twenty thousand dollars after you make me feel good. I'll also take you to eat and drink the best food and drinks!"Madelyn was still under the effects of the drug. She weakly tried to sit up on the bed and said, "D–Don't touch me!"As she was getting up, she was immediately pushed back down by the man.He said, "Bitch, why are you still pretending even now? You're just a plaything used countless times by others."The other man, wrapped in a towel, walked out of the bathroom, "Why are you wasting time talking to her? Let's p
The manager switched on the lights. Kevin glanced around the room and said, "Mr. Jardin, I don't see Ms. Jent here."The manager was scared. He immediately asked the waiter who had just served this private room.The waiter said, "I don't know where she went after she left the room."Zach exuded a chilling aura and said in a frosty tone, "Search every room, including all nearby hotel rooms. If there's not enough manpower, get the police to lock down the city until we find her."Check all surveillance footage, and make sure not to miss any spot."The manager received a threatening look from Zach again, "If anything happens to her, all of you will pay the price."The people who Paradise Club served were all prominent figures in Marisburg. Zach's action would undoubtedly anger some distinguished customers.However, no one could do anything about it. Although Zach controlled the entire Ventropolis and did not have jurisdiction over Marisburg, he could easily hurt Marisburg's developm
The manager thought, 'Of all the people that those from Southgate City could bring here, they kidnapped the wife of the CEO of Jardin Corporation. Now, anyone who's related to this incident can't escape.'To make amends for his actions, the manager quickly said, "Mr. Jardin, if I knew the location of your wife, could you give me a chance?!"...It was extremely cold when the large snowflakes fell on Madelyn's exposed body.She was so disheveled, as if she was a madwoman. There were injuries on her body. Everyone avoided her when she was walking on the bustling street. People were carrying their bags, rushing home for the holiday.Then, the big screen on the street played a host wishing everybody a happy holiday and live performances by celebrities.The cold wind blew at Madelyn. Her eyes and nose felt a little sour. She had no money with her now because everything had been taken away.She did not know where to go. She no longer had a home.When Madelyn escaped, she took the ped
