“Jenna, how about this? I’ll drive around the neighbourhood, and you just lie facing the window and look carefully to see if you can find where Mom is. Then, there are two exits in the community. We’ll go and check,” he said calmly, lowering the window as he spoke.
“Alright.” Jenna leaned against the car window and nodded. She stared at every person outside carefully.
Hansen drove at a steady pace around the neighbourhood. He was also looking at every spot, not letting off anyone who could be Sara.
Hansen drove in this way for some time. Soon, they had wandered around the neighbourhood two times, and specifically questioned the guards at the exit of the other two gates. Unfortunately, they had not seen Sara going out. At that time, Hansen was certain that Sara was not in the neighbourhood. When they drove to a corner, he saw that Bailey was asking around in the neighbourhood. She asked everyone she met, with her face full of sweat.
Jenna’s heart froze and she felt a sharp pain in her heart. She called out to Bailey, and Bailey heard her voice in an instant. When she saw Hansen and Jenna in the car, she ran towards them hurriedly. Before she could speak, tears flowed down her face.
“Sir, Miss Jenna, Madam Sara is missing. I’ve already searched the entire district and the surrounding area. I can’t find her. D*mn it. I’m so careless.” Aunt Lee blamed herself. At the same time, she began to cry. People started to gather around her, gossiping.
“Yes, I saw Mrs. Murphy at the pavilion earlier, and I greeted her. She also said something to me and smiled at me. How could she have gone missing in such a short time?”
“Yes, isn’t it? There are not many people in the community today. It’s hot. They should have found her in this hot weather.”
“In my opinion, she might have gone out for a walk. Don’t worry.”
“That’s right. Don’t worry. She shouldn’t have gone far.”
…
The crowd discussed among themselves and came up with ideas.
Bailey was so worried that she could not stop crying.
Jenna’s head was roaring, her whole body was frozen, and she could not say a word.
“Aunt Lee, go home. We will come back soon. Don’t worry.” Hansen’s eyes narrowed as he sized up the surrounding area with a cold gaze. He then instructed Bailey.
Bailey had no idea what to do. When she heard Hansen’s reassuring words, she only nodded her head and walked back home.
Hansen drove steadily to the base of Sara’s building.
As soon as he stopped the car, Jenna opened the door and ran outside.
“Jenna, wait for me.” Seeing Jenna’s staggering steps, Hansen’s heart was up in his throat and he hurriedly shouted behind her.
She was really in a hurry. She ran as fast as she could, unaware of the road under her feet.
He saw that she was about to fall when her foot hit a rock.
Hansen leaped forward and hurried over to catch her in time.
“Hansen.” As she fell into the warm embrace of Hansen, she grabbed his clothes tightly with both hands and sobbed. “My mother has been kidnapped by them, they will not let my mother go.”
Speaking of this, she burst into tears in his arms.
Hansen’s heart trembled. His heart felt like it was being burned alive. He hugged her tightly and asked in a deep voice, “Jenna, do you have a clue who kidnapped your mother?”
“No, Hansen. I don’t.” She shook her head and choked on her sobs. “All I know is that they want to get the Ocean Heart. They think I have the treasure. That’s why they kidnapped my mother. They want me to hand it over.”
Jenna cried as she spoke.
Hansen’s expression was painful. His fists tightened. Yet, he did not say a word.
He walked to the 28th floor and entered the room.
He placed Jenna on the couch and began to examine the room carefully.
Sara’s crutch and prosthesis were still in the room. She just disappeared, along with her wheelchair.
“Aunt Lee, is there any suspicious person who came to the house these days?” He walked out and asked Bailey calmly.
Bailey was wiping her tears as she tried to recall what happened. After a while, she shook her head and said, “Madam Sara doesn’t wish for the house to be lively, and usually no one visits. In the past few days, it was only Sergio who came.”
“Sergio Xanthe?” Hansen’s brows tightened as a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
“Yes, he used to visit occasionally. Madam has always liked him. He often comes here to chat with her. Madam is always in a good mood when he visits,” Bailey explained.
“Aunt Lee, when was the last time Sergio came to the house?” Jenna raised her head and asked when Bailey mentioned Sergio.
Bailey thought for a moment and said, “Yesterday, he came and talked with Madam for a long time. He even had dinner at home. Madam was chatting with him, and she looked quite happy.”
Jenna fell silent.
Sergio’s words that day rang in her ears. “Jenna, bring the treasure with you. We can live abroad together. I will give you happiness. I will wait for you to come.”
Jenna’s body was trembling, and her face was as pale as a ghost.
She recalled that since Vivian passed away, she seemed to have not seen Sergio in the past two days, except at her funeral that day. Where would he go?
Could it be related to him? Or was it related to Zoella? Or maybe, there were more terrible people hiding in the darkness. She could not imagine it.
Hansen’s face turned pale. He took out his phone and dialed a few numbers. “Alvin, gather your men to find my mother-in-law, Sara. Search the whole A City if need be.”
Alvin quickly understood what had happened on the other side. He agreed and led the Grand Eagles team into action.
Hansen heaved a sigh of relief and sat down on the couch. He held Jenna and comforted her. “Jenna, don’t worry. They will not harm your mother until they get what they want. I believe that there will be news soon. Don’t worry, I will never let those kidnappers get away.”
Jenna nodded with tears in her eyes.
Hansen sighed and took a piece of tissue to wipe away the tear stains on her face. He said softly, “Jenna, I’m here. Don’t fret.”
Jenna closed her eyes and leaned into his arms, with all kinds of possibilities running through her head.
Hansen hugged her tightly as he patted her back. He rubbed her temples gently. In a short while, Alvin’s call came. He gave instructions to them through the phone.
Two hours later, Alvin walked in with John.
Hansen stood up and led them to Javon’s study.
“How’s it going?” He stood in front of the window and looked down at the district, with his voice hoarse and low.
“Mr. Richards, we’ve already searched the whole area and asked around for any information about Lady Sara. Some people are searching somewhere further,” Alvin answered.
“Mr. Richards, we have not seen Sara go out. We have retrieved the surveillance video in the security room. Indeed, Sara did not go out. But we found a black Bentley drove in at 11 o’clock in the morning and drove out in less than half an hour,” John reported their findings.
Hansen’s brow twitched, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
“Alvin, are there any fingerprints that match Sergio’s?” he asked in a cold voice.
“Mr. Richards, he is the only person who had escaped on the night of Meroy’s death. He had disappeared ever since you returned to the mansion. He has never appeared again, and no one can find him,” John said, sounding a little discouraged.
“But he was here yesterday.” Hansen frowned.
Alvin was stunned. Right then, he also felt that things were weird. It would not be as simple as they thought. After all, this was Jenna’s mother. It was a matter of life and death. He suggested, “Mr. Richards, let’s call the police.”
Hansen shook his head. “It’s been less than 24 hours since Sara disappeared. The police won’t file a case.”
He straightened up and said, “From now on, search the whole city for Sergio. As long as there are any traces of him, report to me immediately.”
Alvin and John hurried away after receiving the order.
Hansen paced back and forth in the study as thoughts flooded his mind.
If it was Sergio who drove the Bentley into the Francist Community that day, then Sara was very likely to have been kidnapped by him! Why did he take her away? Hansen refused to believe that he just wanted to please Sara and invite her out to play. Thinking about this, he shook his head. Now that Yadriel had lost, he was going to be arrested soon. At that time, Sergio would never do such meaningless things.
If that wasn’t the case, then he must have kidnapped Sara to reach his goal. One last attempt!
The purpose of his actions was very simple. Just as Jenna said, he wanted to get the Ocean Heart by kidnapping Sara and fleeing abroad. If that was the case, then not only would Sara be in danger, but things would be more difficult to deal with.
Of course, there was also a possibility that Sara had been kidnapped. After all, there were people who wanted the Ocean Heart, such as Zoella!
The most important thing right then was to find Sergio’s whereabouts.
