Everyone was searching for Rosalie.
On the Carters' side, Christopher and Sebastian were tireless in their efforts to rescue Rosalie. However, the truck loaded with money went on a wild goose chase and drove to many places which all ended up incorrect.
The abductors were adept at preventing themselves from being caught. They were sly and cunning. Out of fear the police would be called, they deliberately Christopher and Sebastian them fake addresses to test them and also prevent them from distinguishing the genuine location from the fake.
Christopher and Sebastian were furious, but couldn't do anything about it. All they could do was to be led by the nose by the abductors.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOn Theodore's end, he used all of his network and resources to locate Rosalie, analyzed all surveillance footage and searched every possible place, expanding his search parameters again and again.
He had the list of abductors from Laila, and found out who they were. He also seized everyone related to the abductors, and interrogated every one of them.
"Mr. Spencer, bad news!" Yuvan crunning over and handed him a laptop. "Look at this!" Theodore saw the news on the laptop, noting that news of Rosalie being kidnapped had becviral. The whole nation was now aware of the kidnapping, and the police had been activated. Theodore yelled in fury, "Who called the police?" Everyone lowered their heads; none of them dared to answer.
Theodore threw the laptop to the ground, and smashed it to pieces. "Take down every single article online, quick!" "Got it," Yuvan said before leaving to do so.
Suffocating hopelessness filled Theodore's eyes.
"Rose..." The abductors must have found out about the news. If they were angered, they certainly wouldn't spare Rosalie. Theodore didn't want to keep his hopes up. He knew what would happen to a woman in the hands of these vicious and wicked thugs.
Damn it. If he found out who called the police, he would never spare the person! "Mr. Spencer, we interrogated everyone related to the abductors and analyzed all the surveillance footage from all possible routes. We identified a few places where Ms. Young is likely to be held captive." Theodore immediately instructed them, "Surround those places." "Damn it. How dare they call the police! How insolent of them, treating my words as hot air!" one of the abductors yelled furiously.
The door opened and a few men walked in, approaching Rosalie. She was hauled up, and flung hard back on the ground.
She fell with a thud; one of the men kicked her shoulder, eliciting a pained scream from her.
"Do you know? Your family called the police, damn it! News of the kidnapping even went viral. Now the whole country knows that you've been kidnapped!" Rosalie crawled up and knelt on the floor, trying to bear with the pain. "They weren't the ones who called the police. I'm sure they didn't." "Who else could it be?" the man yelled. "What rotten luck!" "In that case, you should make a run for it. You might still be in tnow!" Rosalie was struggling for her life. She knew these men were foul-tempered and certainly wouldn't spare her. "Haha," the man chuckled as he pinched her chin and tilted her head up. "I'll kill you before we run and make your family watch as we do it. Damn it!" The man pulled out his phone, and dialed a number.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmVery soon, Christopher answered the call. He was clearly enraged by being played for a fool by the abductors. "All the addresses you gavewere fake. Do you want the five million or not?!" "Pfft! You're the ones playingfor a fool. Thankfully I gave you fakez addresses!" the abductor said, enraged. "How dare you call the police on us! Damn it, news of the kidnapping even went viral!" "What? We didn't call the police!" "How can I trust you? I told you not to call the police, but you did! Don't blme for killing her and torturing her before that!"
"No!" Sebastian said in agitation.
"Don't hurt her. I'll give you all then I give find a money you want We'll find a way to stop the police from looking for you. Don't hurt Rose!" "It's enough falling for your tricks once," sneered the man. "I won't fall for your lie again! Just you wait. I'll let you witness how we torture her!" He handed the phone to another man, who pointed the camera in Rosalie's direction.
Rosalie looked disheveled and unkempt. She could hear Sebastian screaming with rage through the phone.
The man spat on the floor and said furiously, "I hate being lied to. Damn it!" "No, no!" Rosalie crawled up from the floor, trying to run, but the men pressed her down on the floor.
Her hands and legs were pressed down, and she cried out in pain and desperation, struggling with all her might. "I'm pregnant! I'm a pregnant lady! Please spare me!" "Oh, she's a pregnant lady. Hahaha!"
The man smacked her swollen belly hard. "So what if you're pregnant? A monkey can be pregnant too. Two lives at stake, that's not a bad deal. Hold her down!" "No, don't touch me! Ahh!" Rosalie's broken cries were swallowed by the man's ruthless and smug laughter.
