Chapter 1587 The Most Terrifying Thing
Sensing something amiss, Harvey asked in a concerned tone, ‘‘You’re going back to Chanaea? What happened?’‘
As both of them were closer than brothers, there was no reason for Vinson to hide the matter from Harvey. As such, he revealed Susanne’s disappearance to the latter.
Harvey’s expression darkened upon hearing the news. Vinson’s enemies must have taken the opportunity of his absence in the country to make their moves.
‘‘I’ll hold the fort here. You should watch yourself,’‘ Harvey responded with a frown.
He, too, was concerned about Susanne’s safety and had no idea who would kidnap her.
Once the call ended, Vinson left for the airport with Arielle who was wearing a disguise. Fortunately, they had gotten Dylan to issue them a visa beforehand, so they had no problems flying out of the country.
Due to the great distance between Turlen and Chanaea, their flight had to make a transit in Lightspring before returning to Chanaea.
By the time they arrived, it was already midnight.
Both of them had removed their disguises along the journey home.
Upon reaching Nightshire Manor, Geoffrey and Rayson were already waiting in the living room. Both of them looked emotional and were filled with guilt over failing to protect Susanne.
‘‘Mr. Vinson, I’m so sorry.’‘ Geoffrey looked at Vinson with reddened eyes. Mr. Vinson left Mrs. Nightshire in my care and I ended up losing her.
Rayson, too, gave Vinson an apologetic look. ‘‘Mr. Nightshire, I—’‘
Vinson waved his hand to stop him. ‘‘What’s the situation now? Have all checkpoints been searched?’‘
Rayson nodded. ‘‘We have beefed up our presence everywhere and will be notified the moment something suspicious pops up.’‘
Vinson took a deep breath. Having made plenty of enemies over the years, he had no idea who had pierced his defenses to kidnap Susanne, causing him to fear for her safety.
In fact, he wasn’t afraid of them making demands. What terrified him was the possibility that they had none to be made.
‘‘I appreciate what you have done. You should go get some rest as there’s still a lot to do,’‘ Vinson suggested to Geoffrey and Rayson.
After exchanging glances, both of them felt Vinson was right and retired for the evening.
Once they were gone, Vinson slumped onto the couch and rubbed his forehead with his fingers.
Cognizant of his frustration, Arielle held his right hand and reassured him, ‘‘Don’t worry. Mom will definitely be all right.’‘
Vinson held her hand in return and lay his head on her shoulder, feeling emotionally fragile.
Because his father passed on early, he and his mother relied on each other for more than ten years. Therefore, he couldn’t accept it if anything happened to her. In fact, he wouldn’t be able to forgive himself for the rest of his life.
‘‘Sannie…’‘
Given that it was her first time seeing him so fragile, she pulled his head into her arms and comforted him softly, ‘‘Don’t worry. She’ll definitely be fine.’‘
While speaking, a vicious glint flashed in her eye. If I find out who was behind Susanne’s kidnap, I would definitely let the perpetrator feel my wrath.
Meanwhile, inside an abandoned factory, a group of armed men was guarding its entrance while a lady was making a call with her phone.
After hearing what the opposing party said, she nodded with a wicked smile. Her gaze then fell upon a woman in the corner who had her limbs bound and her mouth stuffed.
