NovelEnglishChapter 508 The two men nearly wet themselves in terror.
Sean's fiancée was the little princess of the Tempest family-the prodigy scientist everyone in Vesperia knew about. Of course, these two kidnappers had heard the rumors as well.

"I told you," Claire said coolly, "you should've turned yourselves in." The men knew they were finished. They didn't even bother to resist, simply letting Claire go.
As soon as she stepped out of the car, Sean swept her into his arms, holding her tight.
"Don't be afraid," he murmured.
Claire hugged him back. "With you here, I'm not." After she'd been kidnapped in Cresthaven the last time, Sean had commissioned a custom wristwatch with a built-in GPS tracker just for her. That was how he'd managed to show up right on time.
Sean narrowed his eyes at the kidnappers. "Who sent you to take my fiancée?" At this point, the two men had nothing left to hide. They confessed everything.

Sean shook his head. "Never heard of her. Who is she?" The kidnappers stared at Sean and Claire as if they'd grown a second head.
"Marina's a superstar," one finally stammered. "She's got eighty million followers online, everyone knows her. She's supposedly dating the CEO of the Tempest Group. She hired us to kidnap Miss Tempest because she thinks Miss Tempest is trying to steal her boyfriend. She told us to ruin Miss Tempest and take... compromising photos..." Claire: "???" Sean: " "..."

Now, less than sixty minutes later, that girlfriend had gone full green-eyed monster and had her kidnapped as a supposed romantic rival.
Claire clenched her jaw. Since her second chance at life, she'd sworn never to let anyone hurt her again. This Marina-who couldn't even get the facts straight and went straight to kidnapping-wasn't getting off the hook, misunderstanding or not.
She grabbed her phone and called Orion again.
He picked up on the first ring. "Claire, I knew you couldn't go a minute without your brother. Where are you? I'll send my assistant right away." Claire's voice trembled with pent-up frustration. "Brother, I was kidnapped." "What?" Orion nearly shouted. "I don't care who you are-if you lay a finger on my sister, the Tempest family will make sure you regret it. If shedoses so much as a hair we'll cfor you."
