Chapter 1509


    N’s eyes widened with surprise as she gazed at him.


    “I have something really tasty with me. Are you feeling hungry?” Drake asked.


    N firmly shook her head and started to retreat, but Drake swiftly blocked her path.


    “Hey, don’t go. Stay right there!” He held onto her with a tight grip. “Um… Your mom actually sent me to


    find you!”


    N hesitated for a moment upon hearing it was her mother. “Is it really her?”


    Drake continued, weaving his tale. “Didn’t she just dash off suddenly? She told you to wait here, didn’t


    she?”


    “Yes…”


    “That’s correct!” Drake beamed. “Little one, if you leave like this, what if your mom can’t find you?”


    “She knows where to find me. I’ll just y here for a bit and then head back to the lobby!”


    “Oh…” Drake nced around. “I know that lobby. I’ll take you there!”


    N became wary and cautiously freed herself, stepping back a couple of paces.


    “I’m truly a friend of your mother’s. If you don’t go back, she’ll be anxious when she can’t locate you,


    right?”


    “Okay, I’ll go back!” she said.


    Drake lifted N onto his shoulder.


    N instinctively cried out, but he covered her mouth before she could make a sound!


    No matter how she struggled, she was no match for an adult man. Drake clenched his fist and struck


    N on the back of her head, causing her to faint, and her doll fell to the ground.

    Alexander arrived at the hotel, familiar with itsyout, nning to extort more money from Drake. He


    didn’t expect to find an unconscious little girl in the room.


    “W-What’s happening here?” he asked.


    “It’s an adult matter! Don’t get involved!” Drake was drenched in sweat.


    Carrying N earlier, he had to evade security and staff all the way. He couldn’t carry her on his


    shoulder, so he had to act as if he was carrying his own child to fool everyone. Being a kidnapper and


    transporting a child had drained him.


    Alexander gave him a skeptical look but then turned his attention to the little girl on the couch.


    He recognized the lovely dress and the delicate face…


    He couldn’t help but murmur her name, “N?”


    “What’s going on? Do you know her?” Drake asked roughly.


    Alexander bit his lip and stayed silent.


    “You little troublemaker, don’t make things difficult for your old man. Got it? This kid is worth a lot of


    money!”


    After the threat, Drake promptly called Bianca.


    “Ms. Bianca, it’s me… Uh-huh!


    “Yes, yes, it’s all under control… Ms. Bianca, I’ve got the child here. I assure you you’ll be pleased with


    this girl!


    “The child is in my room right now, but I’m feeling uneasy… Give me the address, and I’ll bring her over


    immediately!”


    Alexander’s heart raced as he silently sat on the couch, shielding N behind him.


    Then, he heard a sinister chuckle from the phone. The room was pin-drop silent, making theughter


    sound particrly eerie.


    “Excellent!” Bianca’s voice reverberated through the spacious room. “Securely wrap up the child. When


    you exit the room, hug the wall to your right. There’s a blind spot in the surveince there! Then, go


    downstairs through the backyard. A van will be waiting there. Get in with the child!”


    Drake repeatedly agreed and hung up, preparing to follow the instructions. Suddenly, a pair of hands


    grabbed him.


    “W-What are you doing?” He red at Alexander.


    “Dad, you wouldn’t… be nning to sell this girl, would you?” Alexander asked nervously.
