Mignon hurriedly said, “Cousin, don’t underestimate him just because he seems like a waste man; he’s skilled. Especially when he goes berserk, it’s like a stray dog turning into a Tibetan mastiff. Even if you personally intervene, it might not be…”
Mignon stopped intentionally at this point.
“Shut up!” Black Dragon naturally knew what Mignon didn’t finish saying.
As one of the top figures in the Jiangbei area, Black Dragon’s dignity and strength were absolutely not to be challenged.
“What’s the name of this son-in-law who came to your door?” Black Dragon asked in a cold voice.
Mignon felt a thrill; he quickly replied, “His name is Leo Bloomer, and he lives at the Imperial Mountain Hotel.”
“Starting from now, this son-in-law named Leo won’t live for more than three days,” Black Dragon’s tone was unquestionable.
Mignon became excited, with no tears on his face, “Cousin, as long as I have your support, I feel confident. You don’t need to personally intervene in this matter; I will personally capture Leo, that useless guy, and throw him in front of you!”
…
Imperial Mountain Hotel, on the floor where the VIP suites were located.
Two masked men sneaked to the outside of a room.
“Chad, is this the one?”
“It should be. Open it.”
One of the men took out a specially made tool from his body and skillfully opened the lock.
Gently pushing the door open, they saw a beautiful back.
The two exchanged glances, and one of them silently rushed forward. Then, with great skill, he used a handkerchief soaked in a special potion to cover the mouth and nose of the beautiful back.
Shortly after, the two men carried the unconscious beauty on their shoulders. After leaving the room, with the cover of a hotel staff member, they smoothly left.
Over half an hour later, Jessica opened the door from the adjacent room. When she saw the door next to her wide open, she entered with a puzzled expression.
“Sophia!” Jessica called out.
No one responded in the room.
Jessica called two more times, still no response.
“Weird, did she go out? Didn’t we agree to go shopping on Green Spring’s Flower Street today?” Jessica complained.
When she confirmed that Sophia was indeed not in the room and saw Sophia’s shoe on the floor, Jessica had a foreboding feeling.
Quickly taking out her phone, she dialed Sophia’s number, and as expected, there was no answer.
Regardless, Sophia was Jessica’s biological daughter, so she was very concerned about Sophia’s safety.
Moreover, everything Jessica had now, even moving into the luxurious Cloud Dream Mountain villa at Langstel, was ultimately because of Sophia.
Jessica, not giving up, dialed Sophia’s phone again.
This time, after a few rings, the call was answered.
Jessica couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief and scolded, “Dead girl, where did you go? Didn’t we agree to go to Flower Street together?”
A wicked laughter from a man suddenly came from the other end of the phone: “Old lady, your daughter can’t accompany you to go shopping today, haha.”
After saying this, the other party directly hung up.
“Hey, who are you? Where is my daughter, what have you done to my daughter!?” Jessica anxiously shouted.
There was no response on the other end of the phone.
Panicking, Jessica quickly dialed Sophia’s phone again, but this time, it went straight to voicemail.
Jessica’s heart skipped a beat, knowing that something had probably happened to Sophia.
Without any hesitation, Jessica opened her contacts and found Leo’s number, dialing it.
Leo was on his way to Lemon Grass at this time because Lee Hemingway had invited him again, claiming to introduce someone to him.
Leo, however, had no interest in Lee Hemingway’s invitation. But between shopping and being a guest, he chose the latter.
“Mom, what’s up?”
Leo’s tone was somewhat cold, as his four years of being a son-in-law had taught him that when his mother-in-law called, it was never good news.
As expected, Jessica’s words confirmed Leo’s hunch: “Leo, where are you? Something happened to Sophia!”
Leo slammed on the brakes at the side of the road, coldly asking, “What happened to Sophia, explain!”
“You know, originally, Sophia and I were planning to go shopping on Flower Street. But just now, when I went to your room, the door was wide open, and Sophia was gone. I called her phone, a man answered, and then the phone was turned off!” Jessica quickly recounted the situation.
“Wait at the hotel.” Leo hung up, turned the car around, and headed back to the Imperial Mountain Hotel.
On the way back, Leo called Sophia’s phone. As Jessica said, the phone was off.
Leo clenched the steering wheel tightly, a murderous intent flooding his eyes.
Leo knew this was another premeditated kidnapping; otherwise, Sophia wouldn’t have disappeared shortly after he left.
The events he experienced since arriving at Green Spring flashed in Leo’s mind like lightning. Quickly, Leo narrowed down the suspects: either Ethan or that Mignon!
Of course, Donald Vogt, Joyce’s boyfriend, couldn’t be ruled out either!
Whoever it was, the purpose of kidnapping Sophia was undoubtedly to deal with Leo.
After calming down, Leo called Lee Hemingway.
“Mr. Bloomer, have you arrived?” Lee Hemingway asked.
“Mr. Hemingway, I can’t make it to today’s banquet. My wife is in trouble.”
Lee Hemingway on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, then asked urgently, “What happened to Miss Henley?”
“She’s been kidnapped, and her whereabouts are unknown.”
This statement shocked Lee Hemingway again. Someone dared to kidnap Leo’s wife, practically seeking death!
“Mr. Bloomer, where are you? I’ll come to find you.”
“On the way back to the Imperial Mountain Hotel.”
After hanging up, Lee Hemingway couldn’t help but feel anxious.
Renee had specifically instructed him to take good care of Leo and his family in Green Spring. Now that Sophia was in trouble, if it wasn’t handled well, Lee Hemingway’s good days in Green Spring might be over.
Before heading to the Imperial Mountain Hotel, Lee Hemingway used all his connections, abilities, and relationships in Green Spring. At any cost, even if it meant turning the place upside down, he would find Sophia.
Just a few minutes after Leo arrived at the hotel, Lee Hemingway appeared.
“Mr. Bloomer, I’m really sorry. It’s my fault for not inviting you and Miss Henley to Lemon Grass. That’s why this happened.” As soon as they met, Lee Hemingway apologized to Leo.
Leo waved his hand, saying, “Mr. Hemingway, this has nothing to do with you; you don’t need to apologize. I want to access the surveillance at the Imperial Mountain Hotel.”
“No problem.” Lee Hemingway agreed and quickly arranged for hotel security personnel to retrieve the surveillance footage.
Soon, the security personnel copied a segment of the captured footage and brought it back to Leo and Lee Hemingway.
