Chapter 421


    Cordelia was right. To the outside world, Kelly barely existed. Why would someone specifically


    abduct her?


    Cordelia pressed her lips together and said softly, “Zephyr, it’s strange. I think Nelly definitely has


    something to do with it.


    “It’s not that I have prejudice toward her or I’m picking on her. But think about it, a kidnapper didn’t


    want a known Tanner heiress but went through all that trouble for a Tanner heiress no one even


    knows about. Is it really about the money?”


    Cordelia paused and added, “If it’s for money, it’s not Kelly that should be abducted. If it''s not for


    money, then… then what is it for?”


    “To get rid of her!” Zephyr said abruptly.


    Cordelia felt chills creep up.


    “Maybe my guess is wrong…”


    “Whether it’s right or wrong, nothing must be overlooked.” Zephyr held her shoulders and ran a


    thumb over her face.


    He smiled and felt proud looking at the girl who looked soft but was tough and smart.


    He took her back to the room hand in hand and called Robert before the floor-to-ceiling window


    after she slept.


    Robert said honestly, “Mr. Z, our men have been following Nelly recently. She’s been behaving.


    Doesn’t look like she’s up to anything.”


    Zephyr’s expression was dark as he ordered in a low voice, “Keep watching her. There will definitely


    be something new!”


    Robert agreed and said, “One more thing…”


    “What is it?”


    “Ms. Kelly is awake.”


    Zephyr furrowed his brows.


    “But she doesn’t remember anything,”


    …


    When Cordelia and Zephyr rushed to the hospital in the middle of the night, they saw Josiah sitting


    before Kelly’s bed.


    There was a thick bandage around Kelly’s head, and the hospital gown looked big on her petite


    body.


    She rested by the bed and looked at Josiah with a foreign gaze as she struggled to shrink back.


    “The kid’s been like this since she woke up…” Mandy was barely above her sadness outside the


    door. “She can’t recognize me or anyone else and doesn’t say a word!”


    Josiah left the hospital ward a whileter and leaned against the wall miserably.


    Zephyr went over and patted his shoulder. He wanted to say something but was not good at


    comforting others, so he could only be in his silentpany.


    “Don’t worry,” Cordelia said softly. “Modern medicine’s so advanced now. Ms. Kelly will be healed.”


    “But she doesn’t even recognize me anymore…” Josiah covered his face with both hands and


    sobbed.


    Cordelia had never seen him so sad. After all, he was usually carefree and cheerful.


    “It’s Nelly! It must be her!” Mandy was suddenly agitated. “She did this to Kelly!”


    “What are you saying!?” Joe gave her a look. “Stop making things up in front of so many people!”


    It was already embarrassing that they had a hidden daughter. If more rumors went around, the


    Tanners would be at the cusp of the talk.


    The fund merging would be postponed, and they could forget about the joint hospital project.


    Joe scowled and coughed as he looked at Mandy.


    “Nelly’s our daughter too. How could she harm her little sister!?”

    “She’s not! No!” Mandy raised her voice. “She’s—”


    “Enough!” Joe did not want his family’s dirtyundry to be aired and red at his wife. “What do you


    want? Kelly’s hurt, and you lost your mind?”


    Mandy bit her lips and shook.


    She did say what she said out of anger, but those who heard it thought otherwise.
