Matthew's frown deepened.
A trace of worry flashed across Cecilia's eyes. "Matthew, I believe that Yuna is innocent. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to endure so many days of captivity. Mr. Whitlock and I insisted on releasing Yuna. Tobias is too stubborn. You're well aware of the relationship between the Sherman family and the Whitlock family too. Right now, Yuna's grandfather is calling Peter everyday and putting pressure on him. What are we supposed to do about this?!" "Don't worry, Madam Lawson. I will talk to Tobias." "Thank you so much." The first thing that cinto his field of vision when Matthew walked into the study was a large map.
Tobias was standing in front of the map, staring at it.
Matthew saw that every location on the map was marked.
"Tobias," Matthew called.
Tobias turned his head.
His charming face was filled with exhaustion.
"Matthew, you're here." Matthew nodded. "Tobias, has Natalie not been found yet?" Tobias' gaze fell, and his voice was hoarse. "I've sent people everywhere." He pointed at the map. "My subordinates have been looking for Natalie in every possible location, but she still hasn't been found." Natalie seemed to have disappeared into thin air.
Tobias frowned, his eyes reflecting his complicated emotions. SeaR*ch the Find Nøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
"Was it Remington who kidnapped her?" Matthew suddenly asked.
His voice was solemn.
Tobias' body stiffened.
"Yes," he answered in a low voice after hesitating for a moment.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlthough it was just one word, his voice was subtly trembling.
Matthew's gaze fell on Tobias' face.
He was aware that Tobias was suffering from great pressure. He needed a place to vent and pour out his worries. As expected, after a while, Tobias said, "Matthew, I'm worried that he will hurt Natalie. It's been three days, and Natalie has yet to be found. It's dangerous for her to stay with Remington for even a second. I'm really worried." Tobias' face turned pale. "It's all my fault. I was the one who didn't guard against him. I knew that he had feelings for Natalie, but I thought that his persistence would fade away as twent by. I didn't expect that he would do such a thing!" Tobias had never thought that Remington would kidnap Natalie.
Speaking up to this point, Tobias looked like was about to collapse. "Matthew, I'm really afraid that something might happen to Natalie!" Even standing up was a struggle for Tobias. He was suffering every single second, but he could not let himself give up.
The moment he backed down, Natalie's whereabouts would be untraceable forever.
Matthew patted Tobias' shoulder. "Don't worry, Tobias. I have interacted with Natalie a few times. She is a smart girl. She should be able to protect herself. What's more..." Matthew lowered his voice. "Tobias, if Remington really loved Natalie, he would still respect her, no matter what kind of crazy things he does. Whatever you're worrying about will never happen." Tobias took a deep breath.
Even though he agreed with Matthew, he was the one involved in this, unlike Matthew, who was only a bystander. He found it impossible to be so rational about it.
"Where on earth has Natalie been taken to? Why can't we find her?" Matthew's eyes fell on the map again.
The map was densely packed with Tobias' markings. It was clear that Tobias' subordinates had gone all around looking for Natalie.
Tobias couldn't help but feel frustrated. "No matter if it's Agaphen City, England, the United States, or even North Europe, I've already sent people to investigate wherever I could think of, but she was nowhere to be found." "Is it possible to find Natalie through her and Remington's phone signals?" "I tried, but it's useless. Their cell phones are turned off and I couldn't trace their signals at all." Matthew frowned.
Upon hearing Tobias' words, he realized that this matter was truly difficult.
The gears in his head turned, but he still could not find a suitable way to deal with it.
In the end, Matthew could only put this matter aside and tell Tobias his true purpose of coming here.
"Tobias, where is Yuna?" Matthew suddenly asked in a solemn voice.
Tobias narrowed his eyes.
"I'll take you there," Tobias said.
His voice was as cold as ice.
As members of the upper class whose families were in frequent contact with each other, Matthew had seen Yuna several times.
Back then, Yuna was proud and extravagant. She had the traits of a true noble lady.
Therefore, when he saw that state that Yuna was in, Matthew was extremely shocked.
She sat on the chair limply, as if she had no strength left. Her face was pale, her whole body filthy with grime.
An emotionless bodyguard in black stood in front of Yuna.
"Yuna, were you involved in kidnapping Natalie?" the bodyguard asked stiffly.
"No, I said no!" Yuna didn't seem to have any strength left, but her voice was still very agitated.
A clear and crisp beep was heard.
It was coming from the chair that Yuna was sitting on.
Matthew instantly understood that the chair that Yuna was sitting on was a polygraph chair.
Hearing footsteps, the bodyguard turned his head around.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe saw Tobias.
The bodyguard hurried over and lowered his head in respect. "Sir, I've tested again. Yuna isn't lying." "She isn't lying?" Tobias' gaze fell on the bodyguard like a sharp blade.
The bodyguard was shocked.
He immediately lowered his voice. "Sir, that's what the lie detector says." "Get out," Tobias ordered in a cold voice.
The bodyguard immediately walked out of the room.
On the other hand, Yuna becagitated as soon as she saw Tobias.
"Tobias, letgo, letgo! You heard him, even the lie detector says I'm not lying! I don't know where Natalie went, I have no idea at all!" The expression on Tobias' face was indifferent.
He strode towards Yuna and looked down at her, "I'll ask you once again, where is Natalie?" Matthew, who was standing behind him, was stunned.
It seemed that Tobias did not believe the result of the lie detector. He still stubbornly believed that it must have been Yuna who had kidnapped Natalie. The coldness in Tobias' eyes and his condescending attitude made Yuna's heart ache.
So this was the man that she had always adored since she was am student. However, he had gone as far as to lock her up and torture her, just for another woman! Yuna's heart was chilled to the core.
As someone born with a silver spoon in her mouth, she had never suffered such torture.
"Tobias, I have no clue where Natalie is!" Yuna was choked up. "I genuinely don't know a thing. Why won't you believe me? Even the lie detector proved that I'm not lying, so why?! I've worshipped you for as long as I can remember. How can you do this to me? You..." X
