Chapter 2605


    These kidnappers were so brazen they didn’t even bother to blindfold Elton. That alone. was a chilling


    sign-they clearly had no intention of letting him walk out alive. Realizing this only deepened Elton’s


    worry.


    He was thrown into a room with Balfour and Victoria. When he caught sight of hist daughter, safe and


    sound, he lunged towards her.


    “Victoria!”


    At first, Victoria, slumped in despair, thought she was hallucinating her father’s voice. She straightened


    up, straining to listen.


    “Am I going crazy, or did I just hear my dad?” she murmured to herself. Balfour, however, confirmed her

    pinpoint Elton’s location, her gaze following his voice.


    “Sweetheart, tell me how you are first. Did they hurt you?” Elton asked, his voice filled with


    concern.


    Victoria shook her head. “Balfour took the hits for me whenever they tried to rough me up.”


    Elton quickly scanned Victoria, relieved to see her unharmed where her skin was exposed. If she said


    she was okay, he trusted she had been spared any serious harm, though clearly frightened.


    He hoped his presence would at least bring somefort to the kids, to alleviate the fear they’d been


    drowning in.


    “So you must be Balfour,” Elton said. “Thanks for watching over my girl. Your grandparents are moving


    heaven and earth to get you out, so don’t worry. They’ll have you home in no time.”
