Chapter 1909


    When Sean was about to get in touch with the rted department, he received a call from Gordon. The


    that Ms. Cece took earlier. ording to the driver, she was taken away by a group of men in ck right


    after she got off it.”


    In a split second, Danrique knitted his brows. Even though he seemed to be nonchnt as ever, there


    was a glint of unmissable anxiousness in his eyes.


    “Who are those men?” Sean asked


    hastily.


    “ording to the driver, those men in ck were seemingly well-trained, and they were all holding


    guns. I''ve requested someone to help retrieve the footage of the surveince camera at the airport


    entrance. However, nothing could be captured as the surveince camera was damaged. At the


    moment, our men are trying to locate the cars parked by the roadside when Ms. Cece was abducted.


    I''m wondering if we''ll be able to obtain any clues from the dashcam footage of the particr vehicles,”


    Gordon responded somberly.


    Danrique snatched Sean''s phone and instructed grimly, “Mobilize all your men for a search! You must


    leave no stones unturned to track her down!”


    “Noted, Mr. Lindberg!” Gordon replied respectfully. Knowing they were racing against time, he wasted


    no time carrying out his task.


    At the sight of Danrique on pins and needles, Sean tried to put him at ease by reassuring him, “Mr.


    Lindberg, don''t worry. I bet they must have abducted Dr. Felch to threaten you. Thus, I''m sure they


    won''t easilyy a finger on her. Apart from that, she''s gifted with incredible aptitude. Who knows, she''ll


    be able to escape at any time...”


    Nheless, Danrique cut him off. “Her aptitude only works in specific circumstances. She''s unable to


    summon the beasts on the road. Not to mention, there''s an injury inside her brain!”


    Prevailed by sheer apprehension that intensified as time psed, he instructed solemnly, “Get in touch


    with the military now!”


    “I''m afraid it''ll stir up turmoil in the political sector if we do so. Mr. Lindberg, we''re now in a precarious


    state, encircled by enemies. If you alert the military because of your private matter, the others will


    surely bombard you with oppressive mockery!” Sean reminded him without a second thought.


    “Shut up! Just do as I say!” Danrique bellowed in exasperation.


    Sean did not dare to go against his will. He had no choice but stutter, “N-Noted!”


    Right that instant, Sloan, who was driving, apologized guiltily, “Mr.


    Lindberg, I''m sorry. It''s my fault...”


    “Were you the one who released her?” Danrique snapped coldly with utter frigidness in his eyes.


    “I discovered it when Dr. Felch tried to flee, but I chose not to say anything...” Sloan elucidated warily.


    After a pause, he tried to speak up for himself. “She''d saved my life before, so I don''t have the heart to


    expose it. I guessed she must have insisted on leaving due to a valid reason. Thus, I...”


    “D*mn it! How could you have the audacity to betray Mr. Lindberg!” Sean fumed, blowing a fuse.


    “Mr. Lindberg, please forgive me for acting foolishly,” Sloan apologized shamefully, casting his eyes


    down.


    “I''ll settle the score with you after we get hometer!” Danrique shot him a menacing glower and


    snatched Sean''s phone. “Give me your phone! I''ll contact them myself!”


    The next moment, he called the military, requesting them to dispatch the search and rescue team right


    away. On top of that, he demanded that they send a military helicopter to track Fransesca down


    throughout the city.


    Deep down, he kept his fingers crossed, hoping that Francesca would be sound and safe. If anything


    happened to her, he foresaw Danrique would go berserk and turn Xendale into a living hell!


    Shortly after, realization dawned on her that she was inside a car moving shakily on a treacherous path

    There were reverberations of birds chirping outside the car along the way. The sunlight prated the


    car window, casting an array of shadows.


    Francesca opened her eyes slowly and caught sight of the dense forest outside the window.


    Her lips contorted into a smirk as she started to see a ray of hope. Pfft! Once we are into the forest,


    there will be a twist in the situation!
