Chapter 1514


    Lena gazed at him, her lips moving as aplex expression crossed her face.


    Suddenly, Chris’ phone rang. It was Fleur calling, sounding anxious as she urged him to return


    immediately.

    Chris had no choice but to follow his mother’s instructions and bring Lena back to the Hamertons.


    They found Zuko and Lina already present inside the spacious living room, all wearing serious


    expressions.


    When Lena entered, Fleur appeared to have something important to say, her gaze fixed on Lena.


    Lina locked eyes with Lena and smiled determinedly, leaving Lena slightly puzzled.


    Bianca calmly entered the room, catching Lena’s attention.


    “Aunt Fleur, Chris, I’ve located N! I know where she is!” Bianca announced eagerly.


    Chris paused, surprised. “How did you find out? What’s the source of this information?”


    Bianca smiled confidently. “Don’t think you’re the only one with connections just because you were in


    the special forces. The Hamertons aren’t all-powerful, and there are things you can’t uncover.”


    Fleur cleared her throat calmly, and Zuko exchanged nces with Lina, preparing for what was about


    to unfold.


    However, Chris’ frown deepened.


    A look of triumph shed in Bianca’s eyes. She had carefully nned her actions on her way there.


    Drake’s statement had reminded her that kidnapping was still abduction. If she could paint Lena as a


    child trafficker like her mother, she would erode everyone’s trust in her.


    Bianca didn’t believe that Lina, now a mother herself, would tolerate a child trafficker. She also doubted


    that Chris would continue to treasure Lena once he knew the truth.


    Thus, she made a bold move. She intended to sell out Drake and use Alexander and Drake of


    conspiring with Lena to kidnap N. The three of them were like a family, and Lena would have no way


    to defend herself in front of everyone.


    Bianca turned to Chris and said matter-of-factly, “Alexander and Drake Dickinson took N!”


    “Who?”


    It wasn’t just Chris—Lena’s ears buzzed, and her heart raced. She stared at Bianca in shock. The


    name Bianca had just uttered felt like a curse, sending shivers down her spine.


    “What are you saying?” Chris raised his voice. “I know Alexander. He’s a student from our charity


    project. We brought him down from the mountains! He has no reason to harm the Chrisses. In fact, he


    owes us! Why would he kidnap N? And we don’t even know this Drake!”


    “Chris!” Bianca’s tone hardened. “Just because you don’t know him doesn’t mean others don’t!”


    Bianca turned to Lena, who was pale. “Ms. Harding, you know him, don’t you?”


    Unable to bear it any longer, Chris pulled Lena behind him.


    “Aunt Fleur, please trust me! I’ve done extensive research on this matter!” Bianca implored Fleur,


    rushing to her side. “Drake is Alexander’s father, and he was Lena’s adoptive father!”


    Chris’ gaze dimmed, but he refused to release Lena’s hand. He could feel her cold, trembling fingers


    and chose to believe her. He believed that Lena would never lie to him.


    Fleur finally spoke up in a low voice. “Bianca, please tell us what’s going on.”
