A Cue For Love Chapter 1082


    Chapter 1082 Only Death Awaits Her


    The instant Natalie’s words rang out, Jerome eximed in astonishment, “What? You were the one


    who blew up ze’s underground base in Dellmoor, Chanaea? The internal rumors credited it to Prince


    Jonathan, iming that it was his subordinates who aplished the raid and detonation in Chanaea


    this time.”


    His voice brimmed with regret on Natalie’s behalf. On the contrary, Natalie didn’t find it meritorious and


    didn’t mind whoever the rumors credited.


    Back then, she only slipped into ze’s underground base to obtain the antidote for Samuel’s


    elerated aging. Even if she could reverse time and make a different decision, she would still choose


    to find the antidote and blow up the underground base filled with biochemistry perils.


    “It doesn’t matter.” Natalie shook her head indifferently as she maintained solemnly, “I’m only


    concerned about this woman known as Zophie. Where is she now, and why did she kidnap Yumi?


    Wouldn’t it have been better to take Sophia if she wanted revenge against me? Since she knew that


    the kids are my weakness and wanted to use them to threaten me, why did she take Yumi instead of


    Sophia when it boiled down to a choice between the two of them?”


    She simply couldn’t make any sense of that. Although ze was exceedingly mysterious, they didn’t


    seem the type to make such a careless mistake, judging from her few confrontations with them. “Could


    it have been an ident?” Jerome wondered with a frown.


    “That’s impossible,” Natalie answered intuitively. “I asked Sophia, and at that time, she and Yumi were


    the only ones there. When it boiled down to a choice between the two girls, picking Sophia would’ve


    been the smarter choice. There must be some reason that woman took Yumi away instead of Sophia,


    my biological daughter.”


    “My men are already investigating the matter. They’ll report back as soon as there’s news. Natalie, that


    woman must have had some motive to choose to capture Yumi alive. As such, Yumi’s life won’t be in


    danger for the time being. No matter what, I’ll figure out a way to help you rescue her together,” Jerome


    vowed.


    Natalie felt much more at ease with Jerome helping her. “Thank you so much, Jerome.” She cast her


    gaze back at the man. At that, Jerome pursed his lips. “How many times have I repeated this? There’s


    no need for such formalities between us.”


    Time ticked by. There was no news from Jerome’s side, but Natalie’s phone on the table started


    ringing. The caller ID indicated an unknown number. Swiping the answer button, Natalie brought her


    phone to her ear. “Hello—”


    “Turn off your phone’s location tracker.” A woman’s eerily cool voice drifted out of the phone. “You’re


    Zophie?” Natalie inquired, cutting straight to the chase.

    “Sure enough, you’re something else that you even know my name.” In a sh, the woman’s voice


    turned chilly. “Since you know who I am, you must know that your precious daughter is in my hands. If


    you want her to remain safe and sound, do as I said and turn off your phone’s location tracking!”


    “Okay, I’ll do it.” Exiting the phone call interface, Natalie turned off the location tracking function Xavian


    developed for her. “I’ve turned it off, Zophie. Now, you can tell me why exactly you kidnapped my


    daughter,” she uttered, her brows furrowed.


    Zophie nced back over her shoulder at the girl tied in the corner before sneering, “This kid should’ve


    had a jade key on her. But now, it isn’t with her. Thus, it must be in your hands. Hand me the key, and


    I’ll return her to you. I’ll slowly settle the score for our other past grievances with you in the future.”


    A jade key? Immediately, Natalie recalled the precious jade key hanging around Yumi’s neck when she


    first adopted her.


    At that time, she felt that it was more of some insignia or a key to some sort of mechanism besides


    being valuable, so she suggested that Yumi entrust it to her for safekeeping.


    Never had she thought that Yumi was kidnapped by a member of ze because of that jade key. Since


    ze wants the jade key, it proves that its importance far exceeds my expectations previously.


    When Zophie received no response from her, her voice suddenly turned vicious. “Speak up! Did you


    not hear my demand clearly? I want the jade key! Give me the jade key on this little girl! As long as you


    do so, I promise that she’ll remain alive. Otherwise, only death awaits her!”
