Chapter 429 The Show Must Go On
At that moment, Sonia was overwhelmed by despair and pessimism. Deep down, she wished there
was someone who could save her right away, no matter who it was.
However, she quickly understood that it was just her wishful thinking, but when she closed her eyes
hopelessly, a person’s silhouette shed across her mind so fast that she wasn’t able to see who it
was. Nevertheless, she hoped that someone coulde to her rescue and get her out of the sticky
situation.
In the meantime, the kidnapper with the mobile phone came to Den and said, “Young Master
Den, here is the location of Misty Mountain.”
Den took a quick glimpse at the phone and showed his acknowledgment. Soon, another guy
approached him with a serious look on his face. “Young Master Den, the road traffic department in
Fredburg is now searching for our whereabouts through the security cameras on every street.”
“What?” Den’s face darkened. “What’s going on? Is that Lucius’ doing?”
“No, Lucius is not so powerful that the road traffic department has to go through every security footage
in the city just to help him look for us. In fact, it’s the Fuller Group’s president, Toby Fuller, who is onto
us.”
“That guy?” Den frowned. Knowing Toby as the Fuller Family’s patriarch and the Fuller Group’s
president, he deemed him as powerful as his own father, Robert. Thus, he understood why Toby was
able to get help from the national road traffic department to extract the security footage from every
corner of the city. However, something seemingly crossed Den’s mind as his eyes darkened. “Are
you sure Toby is onto us?”
“I’m absolutely sure because our men in Fredburg have news for us that Toby has been digging around
for the van in which Sonia was taken.” The man nodded affirmatively.
Den gritted his teeth, radiating a stern aura. “Why is he looking for our van?”
Is Sonia rted to Toby by any chance?
Den’s suspicion was quickly confirmed when the man added, “Well, Sonia is Toby’s ex-wife, whom
he cares a lot about. So, now that Sonia has been captured by us, he is definitely on the move to look
for her.”
“What?” Den’s face changed. “They used to be married? Howe you didn’t know this when you
did your digging about Sonia?”
If they had known that Sonia was someone important to the Toby Fuller, Den wouldn’t have allowed
his men to execute the n. After all, Toby was a powerful and influential man whom he could barely
match. Moreover, he had limited manpower, considering the fact that he was in Seafield City at that
moment. Thus, he was well aware of the odds between him and Toby if they were to take on each
other.

Toby is known to be vengeful, so if hees after me, I’m going to be as good as dead.
“Damn it!” Den bellowed in anger.
The man looked down and apologized. “I’m sorry, Young Master Den. It’s our fault for overlooking
this matter. We did as you said and only focused on learning Lucius’ rtionship with Sonia, so we
neglected her rtionship with the others. That’s why…” He swallowed his words, pausing mid-
sentence.
On the other hand, Den red at the man with a pair of bloodshot eyes and clenched his fist before
swinging it across his face. Beaten, the man looked down and apologized once more. “I’m sorry, Young
Master Den.”
Den clenched his fists so hard that his finger joints began to make popping sounds. Then, he spoke
with a chilly voice. “You should be grateful because you’re still useful to me, or I’m going to maim you
right here right away!”
Upon hearing those words, the muscr kidnapper was seen with fear shing across his face.
Despite his beefy build and strong physique, he was surprisingly scared of Den because he couldn’t
forget the sight of how this crazy man tortured his victim. Therefore, he knew he would likely be
skinned if he was going to be punished by him. Now that Den decided to spare his life for the
moment, he heaved a sigh of relief and calmed himself down. “So, what do we do now, Young Master
Den? Do we take her back to where she was taken?”
“Take her back?” Den squinted. “Do you think Toby is going to let us off if we do that? Impossible.”
Ever since he ordered Sonia’s kidnap, he had just made himself Toby’s enemy, yet he knew sending
her back was not going to resolve their vendetta. Thus, he squeezed his fists and said with a cial
voice, “We’ll carry on with the n.”
“What?” The man sounded surprised. “Are we seriously going to continue the n?”
“What do you think?” Den shot his underling a cold gaze. “There is no turning back for us now. Toby
is never going to let us go easily, whether or not we send Sonia back. In that case, we might as well
keep her until she outlives her usefulness.”
“Wise words, Young Master Den.” The man nodded.
“However, this ce is no longer safe for us, so tell the others that we’re leaving for Misty Mountain.
Besides, please gag Sonia’s mouth so that she doesn’t shout like crazy on our way to our new
destination and draw unnecessary attention.”
“Understood!” the man replied and did as he was told.
Den pulled his long hair that was hanging in front of his chest with a distorted look on his face. After
all, he thought his meticulous n was so perfect that he would be able to sessfully kill Lucius, only
to be dismayed when he unknowingly dragged Toby into his mess.
Now that Toby was involved, Den realized his n had gotten out of control and deviated from his
expectation. After all, he had no idea what would happen in the end, as he wondered if he would
seed in killing Lucius or suffer a terrible fate at the hands of either Toby or Lucius.
Without any option left, Den could only take a leap of faith and y it by ear, no matter what kind of
ending his n would lead to. It’s toote to turn back now, so my n will have to work out, no matter
what! He then clenched his fists and returned to his MPV. In order to prevent further exposure, Den
and his men decided to take the streets and avoid the highways due to the fewer security cameras.
Meanwhile, Toby, who was still at the junction, received a call from Tom. “President Fuller, the road
traffic department has some information about the route the van took. Right after they left First World
Hospital, they made a left turn at Southeast Junction and headed straight out of the city. Then, they
passed by the toll on their way to the highway, where the toll attendant reported sights of that van.”
“Really?!” Toby tightened his fingers around his phone.
Tom nodded. “Yes. Besides, an MPV and a small pickup truck were spotted along with it. So, I think
they’re probably working together. Anyway, the three vehicles stopped there for slightly more than ten
minutes before they left the highway through the off-ramp.”
“Alright, I heard you. Send me the route after that off-ramp.” Toby ced his hand on the steering while
instructing his assistant.
“Alright.” Tom nodded in response.
As soon as Toby finished the call, he put away his phone and continued to wait. Two minutester, his
phone vibrated, whereupon he reached for it and viewed the map Tom had sent him. He then
immediately opened it to take a quick glimpse at the route before he closed the webpage and started
the engine, making a left turn at the junction. Unknown to him, he was followed by a few ck sedans
right behind his car.
In the meantime, Carl was sitting in front of hisptop in a hotel in Seafield City, seemingly typing on
the keyboard with an intimidating look on his chiseled face. At the same time, his eyes were bloodshot
as he radiated a cold and murderous aura. “How dare you kidnap her, Den! I swear to God that I will
make you pay!” Carl clenched his jaw, speaking with a menacing voice.
