Chapter 1031 Wendy Was Kidnapped
During the evening, Anna was on a video call with Wendy. Smiling, she said softly, "You've been traveling abroad for
over a month, Wendy. Don't you think it's time to come home?"
"Mom, I've only visited half of the countries in the world, so I'm not done yet. I'd like to travel for another month,"
Wendy said with a smile as she gestured to her friends behind her.
Anna was beaming with affection as they talked. Since Wendy was young, everyone adored her as she was the
youngest and most mischievous. Colton was older than her, so she had no family expectations and lived a free-
spirited life.
"You can travel all you want, but I haven't seen you in a long time, and I miss you. Why don't you come home to see
me before you go on another trip?" Anna asked as she looked at Wendy.

Anna added, "Nicole had a miscarriage. It is only proper that you visit her as well since she is like a sister-in-law to
you."
Wendy was taken aback and exclaimed, "What? Nicole had a miscarriage? Why didn't you tell me sooner, Mom?"
When Anna saw Wendy's surprise, she relaxed her brows, placed her finger on her forehead, and explained, "A lot
has happened in the last few days. Nicole miscarried, Hayden was poisoned, and your brother is constantly
preoccupied with who knows what. That is why I can only tell you now."
"Alright, I'll book a flight back home tomorrow or the next day and visit Nicole. Mom, the next time something
important happens, you need to notify me sooner," Wendy responded in a slightly sour tone.
Without further comment, Anna simply laughed in response.
After hanging up the phone, Wendy turned to face her friends and apologized, "Sorry guys, I'm afraid I won't be
able to join you for the rest of the trip. Something came up at home, so I have to go."
It was a trip where everyone had agreed to go together, but she had to cancel at the last minute, so her friends
were disappointed. "But we already have everything planned. How could you simply say you're no longer joining
us?"
"It's a family matter, so there's nothing I can do. You guys go ahead, and once I've settled things back home, I'll join
you again. I'll still pay for whatever I need to pay. Have a good time, guys! I got to go." Feeling bad, she awkwardly
laughed before turning around to leave.
Wendy was on her way back to the hotel to pack her belongings. She could likely return home by the end of the day
if she could reserve a flight for tomorrow morning.
After parting with her friends, she began walking toward the hotel.
At this point, it was already 9.00PM in the city that she was in. The sky had darkened completely, and the busy
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmstreets were illuminated by bright neon lights.
They had initially gone out for supper at a nearby stall. It was only a 10-minute walk down the street from the hotel.
Wendy didn't want to take the cab, so she walked back.
While walking, she noticed that the streetlights were a little dim. The only thing she could see was the path in front
of her.
Wendy rubbed her arms and frowned a little. What's up with this unsettling feeling?
She shook her head to get the thoughts out of her head and quickened her pace.
After a few steps, a tall and strong man appeared in front of her and blocked her path.
She quickly stepped back, and as she turned to walk away sideways, they quickly moved forward to block her path.
She could tell something wasn't right, so she retreated and said, "I'll give you however much money you want!"
When she looked at the man and realized she would never be able to beat him, she had no choice but to strike first.
"It's not money that I want. It's you," the man said, squinting his eyes as he looked her up and down with a
wretched and sarcastic grin.
At this point, Wendy was trembling all over! She was about to turn around and flee when another large man
appeared behind her.
