Bibbler’s Tale?A bar?Nina frowned after she hung up the phone. Luca was kidnapped, yet Luke was drinking at a bar?Although it was normal to drink at the bar, he had to attend to his business partners, after all. However, should he not be prioritizing finding Luca at a time like this?Nina suddenly thought that something was wrong when she thought so.Luca was not Binaca, and there was no need for Luke to be responsible for her, not to mention look for her.Nina found her keys, shook her head, and closed the door. She thought of what crossed her mind just now, and she thought it was because Luca was similar to Bianca, so she had such thoughts. Bibbler’s Tale.Percy drank a mouthful of liquor and watched Luke put his phone back in his pocket. Then, he asked, “Any news on Luca?”“Do you think I could sit here calmly if it was about her?”Percy nodded. “That’s true.”Luke did not stop him as he looked at the man who seemed to want to get drunk. After all, someone was on her
"I don't want to be around him." Nina shook her head as she looked at the slightly drunk man. Although he had never pestered her during this period, a drunk man could do anything. She was unwilling to keep him company. Luke frowned. “His driver is not here yet. It’s not appropriate for him to drive after drinking so much. And he’s helping to look for Luca too. You know that. If Pierre is the one who did this, then Percy will be the quickest one to find out about it. Otherwise, we won’t be able to get any news on Luca later. What if it’s really Pierre who’s behind this? He has the whole night to transfer Luca somewhere else.” What Luke said was reasonable. Nina hesitated for a moment. She was not worried about what Percy would do to her after he got drunk. She was more worried about Luca. She was partly responsible for it if Luca was really kidnapped by Pierre. After all, if it had not been for her, Luca would not have gone against Pierre. “Fine…” Nina sounded helpless.Percy
Percy stood there, looking disheveled. "Send me back. It'll be inconvenient to drive mine." Nina thought for a moment. Indeed, she had to use her car tomorrow. She would have to hail a ride and drive her car back if she drove Percy home with his car.Although she was disgusted by the strong alcohol smell on him, she wanted to rest early today. Hence, she pulled out her keys and pressed the button.The car that was parked on the roadside beeped at once.Nina said, “Come on, get him into the car.”The waiter chose not to say anything and helped him get into Nina’s car since Percy was one of the bar’s VIPs.She took a deep breath and looked at the man in the passenger seat. Then, she got into the car.She forgot to remind the waiter, who immediately placed Percy in the front passenger seat. She had no choice but to give up on the idea. She would save herself the trouble of moving him to the backseat. The air in the car was filled with a strong alcohol smell when she closed the d
The maid hurriedly came to open the door after a while.Percy held his phone and tried to ask the maid not to open the door. The door was still opened in the end. He sat in the car and put his phone back into his pocket.Maybe he should have told her that he was still staying in the villa they used to stay in.He dismissed the servants at the villa after she insisted on leaving. There was only one maid left there who was responsible for occasionally cleaning the house.Percy sat in the car and listened to the conversation between Nina and his maid. “Hello, your young master is in the car. He’s drunk, and his legs are not working now. Please come over and help him into the house.” Nina did not forget to taunt him when she was talking to the maid.Percy wanted to show her that he could walk, but she had a soft rather than hard temperament. It was better for him to pretend to be weak now.The maid shot a glance at the person in the car. It was indeed her young master. She walked o
"This is what I need." Luca was calm. She knew that pissing off the kidnappers would not do her any good. Nonetheless, she wanted to fight for more opportunities to see if she could find out more information from them.The man rolled his eyes and mocked her. "You’re being kidnapped, you’re not on vacation.""I know. You can let me die of thirst and tell your boss that I died because I was too weak to withstand your beatings." Luca looked at the hideous mask on his face without any fear."Will you die if you drink two fewer glasses of water? Do you think I'm a three-year-old child?" The man pinched her chin. If he was not afraid of hurting her again, he would have already taken action."I was beaten until my forehead bled yesterday and I'm very weak now. You can refuse to meet my demands. However, when the person behind you asks you for a handover, you need to figure out how you’re going to explain it to him." Luca still appeared tough even though her chin was being gripped by the k
Luca was certain after she saw him evade her question.It was Pierre!"Didn't you find out more before you kidnapped me? I was rumored to be romantically involved with Luke Crawford. Also, I work in T Corporation. If I don’t show up to work, they’ll know that I'm missing and call the police." Luca reminded him in a casual tone.The man knew that Luca's kidnapping had been announced on the news.The kidnappers thought that even if a passerby who was around when they kidnapped her called the police to report it, it would take a long time for the mindless police officers to find out Luca's identity.They never expected that on the second day of the kidnapping, the police already knew who Luca was and issued a notice.‘Could it be… that what she said is true?’They had been involved in multiple kidnappings of prominent figures but they had never dared to provoke the Crawford and Mallory families.Everyone in their line of work knew that the businesses those two families were involv
"Of course, your wedding gift will be different from other people's. Let's put it this way. You can have whichever of Mallory Corporation’s subsidiaries you fancy. We’ll go through the transfer procedures. You can build your career and won't have to work for me anymore," Percy said."Subsidiary? I don't want any of them, Brother. I'm happy with how things are now. I get to take the company's dividends and occasionally do what you tell me to do. My life is leisurely." Pierre turned Percy down when he heard that he wanted to give him a subsidiary company.Even though Percy was his brother, he would never hand over Mallory Corporation to him.What he wanted most was Mallory Corporation, not any of its subsidiaries. Nevertheless, he was not stupid. He knew that if he said something, he would be turned down. Maybe he would even reveal something, so he chose to keep it to himself.Percy listened to Pierre, who positioned himself as a hands-off shopkeeper. If he had not investigated him a
"No, we didn't say anything. She was the one who asked us if someone from the Mallory family was involved." Eric did not dare to mention that she guessed it because of what he said for fear of being scolded.Pierre did not expect Luca to be so smart. He yelled into the phone, "Good-for-nothings! How did she act after she asked that?""Nothing. She's very calm," Eric replied as he made a helpless look at his companion."Stay away from her. I'm going to find a way to divert her suspicions," Pierre said. He then hung up the phone and drove to the villa.Percy's men followed behind him, but Pierre did not notice because they were skilled.When Pierre was halfway there, Luke's men met up with Percy's. They talked and changed positions so Pierre would not notice that something was wrong.He drove to the villa. Luke's men arrived and knew that this was not Pierre's usual address, so they sent the location to Luke.At the same time, Percy was also updated on their location.He sent Luk
