Chapter 1524


    Bianca and Drake soon appeared on the big screen while chatting in the hotel backyard.


    In the background, the PA system emitted sounds.


    Bianca: “I’ve already bribed two Hamerton bodyguards… When the timees, you just need to


    cooperate with them and kidnap the child. I’ll give you a substantial amount of money!”


    Drake: “A girl?! What’s the point of stealing a girl? They’re not worth much!”


    Bianca: “Shut up! Just do what I asked! Kidnap the child I requested!”


    …


    Bianca’s face turned pale, and her knees gave way as if all the air had been sucked out of her.


    “So, thisdy was attempting to kidnap the Hamertons’ daughter?” someone remarked.


    “There have been some strange urrencestely, especially this year. That’s the Hamertons and


    Thompsons’ most precious princess! Does she think she can just snatch her away whenever she


    pleases? Ha!” Another person chimed in.


    “No, no…” Bianca stammered in panic. “That’s not what I was trying to do. Please let me exin,


    Zuko!”


    Lina red coldly and retorted, “Your voice was clear. What’s there to exin? Are you going to im it


    wasn’t you in the video?”

    “Bianca, you’ve bitten off more than you can chew,” Zuko said.


    He took a few imposing steps forward, silencing the room. “Do you believe that the Hamerton


    bodyguards are so easily bribed?”


    “What?” Bianca lifted her head, only for two individuals to walk in—the bodyguards she thought she


    had sessfully bribed. Their expressions were cold and impassive.


    “You betrayed me?” Bianca eximed after a moment of stunned silence.


    “Are you messing with us, Ms. Mosley?” Lina smiled. “They’re our bodyguards, just doing their job, not


    ‘betraying’ you.”


    The Hamerton bodyguards were the elite of the elite. They underwent rigorous training and


    professional psychological evaluations during the hiring process. Anyone failing the tests would be


    disqualified. Moreover, the Hamertons provided them with exceptional treatment. Betraying such a


    benefactor would be unwise.


    Hence, they had promptly informed Zuko when Bianca had tried to bribe them, leading to heightened


    security for Sephy. However, they hadn’t anticipated Drake’s interference in the n or kidnap N.


    Bianca sat on the ground, panting heavily. She was drenched in sweat as if she had been pulled from


    the water.


    A few attendees from the Mosleys were also present at the banquet, but they kept a low profile amidst


    the crowd. Fleur, however, confronted them directly.


    “The Mosleys are known for their prestige, but how did they raise a daughter like that?” Fleur’s voice


    echoed. “It appears our generations-old friendship ends here!”


    “Aunt Fleur…” Bianca tried to crawl toward her, attempting to grasp her dress, but Fleur skillfully


    evaded her.


    “I’m sorry, aunt! I was confused. I never intended to kidnap the Hamertons’ little girl… Please, help me,


    aunt. I…”


    “Confused?” Lina interjected angrily. “You plotted to kidnap my daughter just to frame Lena! Your n


    was devious—you even used a child! And now you seek mercy?”


    “That’s right!” The usuallyposed Elijah stood up, his voice trembling. “No parent can forgive


    someone who harms their child!


    “Bianca, you hurt my daughter, and I will ensure you pay dearly for it.”


    Bianca made several attempts to stand but failed, eventually lying on the ground, ovee with fear.


    Chris arrived at the ballroom entrance just as the police officers arrived. Pete grinned knowingly,


    nudged him, and said, “This time, we’re really here to apprehend someone, right?”


    Chris nodded, giving a thumbs-up and pointing toward the room. “She’s in there.”


    Pete organized a group to escort Bianca away.
