Chapter 516


    A City


    Aidyn couldn’t reach Liana, so he hustled over to her ce, but she was nowhere to be found.


    Without a second thought, Aidyn sped off to the hospital


    There, he found out from the doctors that Liana had been forcibly taken by Tyler


    And to top it off, Tyler had the audacity to hurt Eleanor


    Messing with Mr Laurence’sdy? Was he asking for a death wish?


    Fuming. Aidyn whipped out his phone to call Bernard


    But Bernard was already flying high in his private jet, with his phone switched off


    Aidyn had no choice but to download the surveince footage and send it to Bernard’s phone, then


    make a beeline for B City to find Liana.


    The next morning, as Eleanor was deep in focus, pencil in hand, finalizing thest building on the


    blueprint, her phohe rang. S


    he nced at the caller ID, and her hand slipped, sending her pencil skidding off the ruler.


    There on the screen, the name Ethan Ziegler made her pause before she reached for the phone.


    Ethan hadn’t called since he returned to the G country, and now suddenly he was on the line. Was he


    coming back?


    Sure enough, the first words out of Ethan’s mouth were, I’m back.”Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    His deep voice on the other end of the line made Eleanor freeze up.


    She simply murmured a soft “mm–hmm,” not daring to respond or ask why Ethan was back.


    Ethan lounged on a U–shaped couch, and casually asked, “Has Robin been looking for you?”


    Eleanor had expected Ethan to ask her to fulfill the second agreement, but he asked about Robin


    instead, which was a relief.


    “Yes,’ she replied, then added, “More urately, he’s looking for Emilia.*


    Ethan scoffed at this. When Emilia’s mother had taken her daughters to plead with the Pine family and


    the Spencer family, how had they responded?


    They had kicked the three of them out, leaving them with nowhere to go. They heartlessly dered that


    whether they lived or died, neither the Spencers nor the Pines would lift a finger to help


    And now, for the sake of the olddy of the Pine family, they were looking for Emilia. They were


    shameless!


    Ethan curtly told Eleanor, “Don’t reveal your identity while Robin is sniffing around.”


    Eleanor reassured him, “Dont worry, he doesn’t know about my sister’s death, or that I took her ce.”


    Ethan didn’t respond, his finger idly tapped the ss in his hand. “Bernard’s been helping you evade


    Robin’s search for Emilia, hasn’t he?*


    Eleanor was surprised that Ethan, all the way in the G country, was in the loop about her affairs. “Yes,”


    she admitted.


    A smirk appeared in Ethan’s eyes at her firm reply. Tve told you before, Bernard isn’t right for you. Why


    are you still with him?”


    Eleanor put down her pencil, her brow furrowed. “Ethan, you keep saying Bernard and I aren’t a good


    match. What do you mean by that?”


    Instead of answering. Ethan casually said, “Ille see you in a bit. Just stay put.”


    Before Eleanor could ask why he wanted to see her, he hung up. When she tried to call back, he


    wouldn’t pick up.


    Eleanor had a feeling Ethan’s visit wouldn’t be good news, so she quickly rolled up her blueprints, and


    nned to wait for him at Bernard’s mansion


    But as she got up, a scar–faced man suddenly came in through the window and gagged her with a


    cloth.


    She didn’t even have time to scream or struggle. A few secondster, her eyes rolled back, and she


    passed out.
