Chapter 327
Abel repeatedly dialed the number he had jotted down from thendline on his phone but to no avail.
The convoy of three cars sped along the road and reached Brookewater vige in less than two hours.
Darkness enveloped the countryside, with only a handful of streetlights illuminating the main road. The
alleyways were even darker, especially in this remote town. The vige where Kendra lived was the
poorest in the area, with many of its inhabitants having already moved out and settled in other
buildings. The remaining households consisted mainly of the elderly, sick, weak, and disabled people.
Kendra''s house, like many others, was a small and old-fashioned building made of tiles. The
bodyguards led the way with their shlights and quickly located her house. However, when they
opened the gate to the courtyard, it was pitch-ck inside, and there was no sign of anyone being
there.
"Ms. Kendra," Luca asked cautiously, "are you inside?" But there was no answer. They entered through
the open door and searched for the light switch.
Abel attempted to call her number once more. Suddenly, Luca noticed a cell phone ringing on the
ground and retrieved it. "Sir, this is Kendra''s phone."
Abel nodded, "She was able to call me before something happened."
"We should search for her quickly," Luca urged, "she shouldn''t have gone far with her child."
Abel considered, "I have a feeling that she may have been abducted by someone."
Luca inquired, "Sir, do you think she has been kidnapped?"
"Yes," Abel confirmed.
"Should we contact the police?" Luca asked.
"We need to inform Inspector Charles''s office first," Abel directed, "it''s a matter concerning a mother
and a child. Please notify him."

"Understood, Mr. Abel." Luca retrieved his phone and dialed Inspector Charles''s number. Inspector
Charles, who was about to sleep, picked up Luca''s call since he held a higher status as the chief
assistant of Struyria''s influential figure, Abel Ryker. Luca quickly exined the situation to him.
"Alright, Mr. Luca," Inspector Charles acknowledged. "I will immediately order a search. Please don''t
worry."
"Thank you, Inspector Charles," Luca expressed his gratitude. "Please update us as soon as they are
found. Mr. Abel is waiting for your good news."
"Got it, Mr. Luca," Inspector Charles reassured, and Luca ended the call.
"Our people should not be idle," ordered Abel, "take two people to help with the search."
"Yes, Sir," Luca acknowledged themand, as he was also worried about Kendra and her hungry
baby.
The next day was a weekend. Early in the morning, Sam opened the ss door and saw a sea of
flowers. "Wow!" She eximed, "Who did this? Who is so kind-hearted and puts roses in front of our
door in the shape of a heart?" She immediately thought of someone.
Sure enough, a voice full ofughter came from beside her, "Sam, do you like it?" Adrien appeared
soon after with augh, admitting to the romantic gesture.
"Mr. Adrien," Sam rolled her eyes, "I knew it was you. No one else could have done it."
"Of course, I am romantic and colorful. That''s why Emma chose me!"
She couldn''t help but acknowledge Adrien''s colorful personality, which was in stark contrast to Abel''s
stern demeanor. Calling him a demon from hell was not an exaggeration.
"Have Emma woken up?" Adrien adjusted his suit and tie, "Let her see my appearance today, won''t it
be impressive?"
"Haha," Sam teased him, "It is quite impressive, with your oiled hair and powdered face."
"Why would you say so?" Adrien defended himself, "I am the most attractive man in the Struyria, the
dream lover of many women."
"Is that so?" She continued tough, "I heard that the dream lover of women in the Struyria is Mr.Abel."
"I admitted that Abel is the most popr among the women,” Adrien rolled his eyes unhappily, "Fine. I
don’t mind being second to him."
