Chapter 1518


    Everyone in the car was shocked.


    Bianca approached cautiously, spotting dried blood beneath Drake’s head. She ced her hand under


    his nose and detected a faint breath.


    Her hand trembled, and her eyes glinted ruthlessly as she raised her foot and kicked Drake.


    “Get up!” she demanded.


    Lina and Zuko joined her, discovering that the factory was now empty.


    “Where’s the child?” Lina asked.


    “Ow…” Drake groaned on the ground and struggled to get up. “Help, help… This brat!”


    “Drake Dickinson!” Bianca eximed, exasperated.


    After all, she had confidently dered that she knew N’s whereabouts. She had used Drake and


    Alexander of conspiring with Lena to kidnap her.


    With Drake injured and the two children missing, this was aplete deviation from the n she had


    devised to implicate Lena!


    Seeing Bianca clearly, Drake was about to ask for help when he caught her signaling him with her


    eyes. He froze, realizing that Zuko and Lina were present.


    He remembered Bianca’s warning—they were supposed to pretend they didn’t know each other in front


    of outsiders. He cowered and remained silent.


    Zuko stepped forward and asked, “You’re Drake Dickinson?”


    Drake stammered, unable to meet his gaze.


    “You’re Lena’s adoptive father?” Zuko persisted. “Did you and your son coborate to kidnap the Chriss


    child?”


    “No, no!” Drake became flustered. “Young man, please don’t use me! My son, that brat… h-he’s the


    one! Look at my head! He hit me with a brick!”


    “That’s enough!” Bianca feared that further discussion would reveal too much. She looked at him


    sternly, silencing him.


    Lina sneered. This was such a crude trick that it was both foolish and infuriating!


    She said coldly, “Ms. Mosley, didn’t you im they were conspiring? Is there discord among you now?”


    “That’s exactly it!” Drake chimed in, seizing the opportunity. “Miss, my ungrateful son actually attacked


    me with a brick! I don’t know where they’ve gone now… That little brat probably wanted to keep that girl


    for himself so he could have all the money from selling her!”


    Lina nced at him. The Thompsons’ men had arrived by car.


    Lina instructed, “Uncle Ian, kindly escort Mr. Dickinson back. Attend to his injuries first, then I have


    some questions to ask him personally.”

    “Understood.”


    “Also, the two children…” Lina paused for a moment. “Regardless of the methods you employ, you


    must find them!”


    “I understand.” Ian nodded. “It is Ms. Chriss, right?”


    “Yes.” Zuko added, “Uncle Ian, the Hamertons are also sending people to search. If you require any


    assistance, you can contact my assistant.”


    Bianca discreetly moved aside. She couldn’t afford to provoke either the Hamertons or the Thompsons.


    She had intended to pin the me on Lena, but she had fallen into her own trap instead! She bit her


    lip, determined to find a way to evade responsibility before N was located.


    –


    Alexander had already run quite a distance with N.


    They were in the sparsely popted outskirts. They had been running for a while and had no idea of


    their whereabouts. There was only one seemingly endless road, with fields, woods, and wastnd on


    either side, but no other soul in sight.
