    "Who are you people, and what do you want?"


    In the backseat of the speeding car, Joanne clutched Tail tightly to her chest. She could feel the tiny


    tremors of fear from the girl''s body.


    Tail had never been exposed to such a terrifying situation.


    But she gritted her teeth and held on, refusing to let her fear get the better of her. Yet her pale face


    betrayed her inner panic. Joanne tried to remain calm. She pulled Tail''s face into her embrace,


    shielding her from the gazes of the men in the car.


    Perhaps if Tail didn''t see their faces, she could find some small measure of safety.


    "Don''t be afraid. We''re not bad people. Our boss just wants to have a word with you," said the man in


    the lead.


    The image of a handsome but loathsome face shed through Joanne''s mind. "You were sent by


    Edwin?"


    The man didn''t respond.


    The tension in the car was palpable, like sparks igniting in the air. Joanne''s voice was tight with anger


    as she spoke through clenched teeth. "Did you send that text message earlier? Was it all just a ploy to


    lure me out and kidnap me? Stop the car! Let my daughter go. She''s innocent. I''ll go with you to see


    Edwin."


    The bodyguard looked ufortable and shook his head." If you have something to say, you should


    speak with our boss."


    Joanne''s clear eyes zed with fury.


    Edwin had stooped so low as to kidnap her and her daughter just to force her to see him!


    Did he have no fear that something might go wrong?


    What if Tail was scared out of shape?


    Oblivious to everything, Edwin was eagerly anticipating Joanne''s arrival in a luxurious presidential suite


    at a nearby hotel.


    But a chilly wind blew on his back, creeping under his skin and giving him a sense of ominous


    foreboding.


    Wearing a Bluetooth headset, Lucas was standing on the side. He answered two calls before


    respectfully reporting to Edwin, "They have been picked up. Should I inform thewyer to loosen up?"


    Edwin replied with disgust, "What''s the point of picking up that girl?"


    Unsure of the specifics, Lucas cleared his throat and said stiffly, "It seems to be a case of mother-


    daughter love. The two were holding hands tightly and could only be picked up together."


    Edwin''s face turned icy. He had no desire to see that brat at all!


    Her fans online were so fierce, and she was Patrick''s daughter.


    "Book the earliest flight to Mourpa and send the girl back."


    Lucas felt a chill run down his spine. "I''m afraid Mrs.


    Atherton will not agree."


    "Not my concern. She''s not my daughter anyway!" Edwin yanked at his tie and roared with impatience.


    Lucas immediately realized how irritable Edwin was at that moment. He shut his mouth and went to


    book the flight.


    Ten minutester...


    Joanne and Tail were escorted out of the car.


    Joanne looked at the hotel and recognized it as one of Edwin''s properties.


    Sure enough, this was his doing.


    He was simply despicable and shameless.


    "Please follow me. Our boss is waiting for you upstairs," said the head bodyguard as he led the way


    and gestured for her to follow.


    Joanne stepped on the shiny tip of his leather shoe and sneered, "You''re such a good dog trained by


    Edwin."All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org.
