Chapter 31


    Chapter 31 Forced to Talk


    Tony escorted Nicole to the office door and lingered outside without going in. With a faint smile on his


    face, he stretched out his hand and made an inviting gesture.


    Nicole thanked him before entering.


    Upon opening the door, she saw Colton sitting at his desk at a nce.


    As usual, Colton was sitting upright at his desk with his back ramrod straight. The ck suit that he


    donned made him seem calm and grounded.


    But unlikest time, there were four unfamiliar men kneeling on the floor in front of the desk right now.


    Colton looked up when he heard the door open. When he saw that it was Nicole, his face softened, and


    he stood up, striding over.


    “Miss Lisa.” His low voice was mellow and carried a hint of respect as he spoke, making Nicole feel like


    he was apletely different personpared to thest time she was here.


    Colton’s upright figure was a head taller than her as he stood in front of her. When she looked up, her


    gaze fell on the dark circles underneath his eyes.


    Although his face was full of energy now, it was not difficult to see the hint of exhaustion in his eyes.


    “President Gardner, you didn’t have to do this.” Nicole nodded slightly, feeling a little apologetic.


    “It’s not a big deal, Miss Lisa. If you have any questions, just ask them directly.” Colton was always


    gentle to her, and each of his actions were conducted wlessly.


    Nicole looked at the four people kneeling on the ground, her eyes narrowed. Without beating around


    the bush, she demanded, “Who sent you to kidnap my son?”


    They shrank together without saying a word.


    Nicole stood in front of them, looking condescendingly down at them, and continued in a cold tone,


    “F&M Apparel’s legal department can easilynd you in jail for kidnapping underage children.”


    The leader of the thugs finally spoke up, insisting, “We didn’t kidnap him. We were just ordered by the


    child’s grandfather to send him over to meet him. Don’t just use us blindly.”


    Nicole’s eyes darkened. It seemed that this was indeed the Anderson Family’s doing.


    “Answer me, was it Queenie’s instructions?” Nicole questioned.


    William obviously didn’t know that Nicole had a son. Only Queenie knew that. If the Anderson Family


    did this, Queenie must have been behind it.


    However, no matter what she asked the thugs, they only insisted that they were taking her son to see


    his grandfather. As for the house’s messy state, they weren’t sure what had happened, giving excuses


    like perhaps after they had left with her son, a robber had entered.


    Nicole was trembling with anger. They refused to admit it even when threatened with death.


    “Miss Anderson, you are all family. If there is a conflict within your family, you can’t take out your anger


    on us.”

    Seeing that Nicole couldn’t get anything out of them, Colton took a step forward. His leg, d in a pair


    of neat trousers, rose andnded directly on the man’s face.


    He didn’t hold back on his kick at all. As a result, the man’s face immediately turned red, and a tooth


    popped out of his mouth.


    “Yes or no?” Colton’s eyes werepletely cold, and although he didn’t threaten them out loud, the


    meaning behind his words were very obvious.


    The man’s eyes zed with fury, but just as he was about to retort, Colton mercilessly kicked him


    heavily in the chest again.


    “Yes! Yes!” Seeing blood in his mouth and Colton’s cruel behavior, the man was afraid that if he didn’t


    tell the truth, he would die here.


    After Colton got his answer, he retracted his feet. When he looked at Nicole, the cruel expression on


    his face had already disappeared.


    “Miss Lisa, your son should be in the Anderson Residence,” Colton said.


    Nicole nodded, not concealing it. “I’ve already retrieved him from the Anderson Family. This time, I


    came here to find out who the mastermind behind the scenes is.”


    Colton nced faintly at the people on the ground before taking out a napkin from the table and


    throwing it on the ground. He used it to rub against his shoes, as if he disliked the fact that his shoes


    had just kicked the man in the face.


    “These thugs hang out with Joseph all year round. You can look into that, Miss Lisa.”


    Nicole thanked him. “All right, I see. Thanks for the info.”


    It seems that this incident was nned by Queenie and Joseph. Nicole clenched her fists. They’ll


    definitely pay for what they did!
