Chapter 296 "Yeah." Joshua lowered his gaze. "I asked the police earlier who tipped them off, and it was Zach." "Zach?" Allison's brow furrowed deeply. "I've only been out of touch since last night. We don't usually keep in touch, so how did he know I was kidnapped?" "That's what's bafflingtoo. Initially, when your friends couldn't reach you, they got worried and called the police. I later made sure both our families told the police you'd been found and not to report it again. Zach shouldn't have known you were missing, let alone kidnapped." After a long three-hour flight, Allison had finally calmed down. What was done was done-Lizzy had been taken to America by Chris. After her initial breakdown, she started to pull herself together.
"And he knew I was taken to Cloudville..." Allison said thoughtfully. "Someone must've tipped him off about the kidnapping, or he's in cahoots with Chris's crew.

Joshua offered Javier a few reassuring words, then scanned the room with narrowed eyes, his gaze icy.
"Who let slip about Allie being kidnapped by Chris?" The Fisher family exchanged worried glances, and the matriarch was the first to break the silence. "What's going on?" A chill seemed to radiate from Joshua, his jaw set and expression stern. "Only you all knew about my plan and that Allison was taken to Cloudville by Chris. I stressed. multiple times not to call the police. So why did someone report it?" "What! Someone actually called the police?" Lillian's eyes widened in shock. "Could it have been one of Allison's friends?" "It wasn't," Joshua replied coldly. "Last night, I already called Brian and James to inform Allie's other friends, including the one who initially reported it. They're all in the loop. It couldn't have been them." Joshua's gaze scrutinized each person present.

Haley chimed in, "That's right, Joshua. Even though Mom wasm worried about you, she agreed to your plan. She wouldn't have called the cops and messed it up."
Joshua remained unfazed, his expression still cold., cold, "I know it wasn't you who called, it was Zach. But someone here leaked the info."
