Chapter 742 Kidnap
When Annabelle Xia saw that they were wearing the janitor's uniform and was wearing masks, she nodded, "Yes, I am..."
The two of them looked at each other and said, "There is someone looking for you at the door!"
"Looking for me?"
The man nodded.
Annabelle Xia frowned and looked at them dubiously.
The woman had a hunch that something was wrong, "Who was it?"
"You will know when you go!"
"The janitors in this floor is auntie and uncle Wong, I've never seen the two of you before!" Covi said.
The two men realized that they were about to blow their cover and they exchanged a look. After that, one of them caught Annabelle Xia and dragged her to one side.
Covi screamed right away, "What are you guys doing?!?!"
The other person subdued Covi right away, "Shut up, if not I'll kill you!"
"What do you guys want? Do you know this is a crime!!" Covi continued to shout.
*Slap!*
The man gave Covi a hard slap, "If you dare to make another sound, I'll really kill you!" As he said that, he looked around vigilantly. Fortunately there wasn't anyone around. Covi was so afraid that she covered her mouth.
"What should we do now?" The person that thrashed Covi asked the person overpowering Annabelle Xia.
Even as Annabelle Xia was seized and she was anxious with the sudden happening, she was able to calm down immediately. She looked at them and said, "I am the one you need, you don't have to involve other innocent people. It will only slow you down!" "Annabelle..." Covi looked at Annabelle Xia with teary eyes.
Annabelle Xia simply gave her an eye gesture.
The two of them contemplated for a while and one of the person said, "Our target is Annabelle Xia and Alistair Mu. Let's not create any trouble!"
The other man nodded and looked at Covi, "You, go and tell Alistair Mu right away. If he wants to save his wife, he need to prepare enough money!" After saying that, they dragged Annabelle Xia away. "Annabelle, no! Please don't bring her away..." Covi shouted.
Annabelle Xia looked at her and gave a signal, "Covi, I am the one they want. Hurry and go get Alistair Mu to save me!" Annabelle Xia said calmly.
When Covi saw them leaving, she wasted no time and ran upstairs.
The moment she got up a flight of stairs, she saw a patrolling security guard and she yelled, "Hurry, hurry! Miss Xia was kidnapped!" Covi yelled as she pointed towards the direction. "What!?"
"Hurry, over there, I will go and inform president Mu!" Covi said.
The security guards nodded and ran towards the direction she pointed. And Covi hurried upstairs.
At that time, Alistair Mu was having a business meeting in his office. Covi wasted no time and didn't even ask for permission with his secretary. The woman simply barged into his office. Alistair Mu was caught by surprised and he looked at Covi with a furious frown.
Covi was just frightful, "President Mu, Annabelle was kidnapped!"
Alistair Mu stood up right away, "Kidnapped!? What are you saying!?"
And Covi told Alistair Mu what happened. Alistair Mu simply left everything behind and ran out the office.
The business partners over the other side didn't even know what happened and they saw the president of Yun Rui leaving without a word...
After the security guards were mobilized, they couldn't find the two men and also Annabelle Xia. Alistair Mu searched the company inside out as well and he couldn't find them either.
As he stood in anguish in front of the company, one of the security came and reported, "Sir, someone saw a completely tinted car driving over that side!"
"Hurry and chase after them!" Alistair Mu roared.
Who was it?!
Who dares to do that!?
Covi's cheek was swollen and her hair was in a mess. However, the woman couldn't care less and she was just worried sick. If anything were to happen to Annabelle Xia, she would feel guilt ridden for the rest of her life. When Jack heard what happened, he ran out to the president, "Sir, should we report this to the police?"
"If we wait until the police come, it will be too late!"
"Hurry and go look for her!" Alistair Mu roared. After that, the man recalled something and he grabbed Jack's shoulder, "Inform the president of Rong Le Group, Kaleb Hua!"
Jack had heard about Kaleb Hua and he knew the man was involved in the mobsters in the past. Although he didn't know why the president asked him to inform Kaleb Hua, he knew it wasn't the right time to ask question. The assistant nodded hurriedly and went away. The moment Alistair Mu finished giving his instructions, his phone rang. He didn't even check his phone and answered it.
"Hello..."
"Alistair Mu!"
When Alistair Mu heard the malicious tone, he sensed that something was wrong right away, "Who are you!?"
"Do you want to save your wife?"
"I'm warning you, if you so much as touch her, I will kill you!!" Alistair Mu gripped his phone tightly and gnashed his teeth.
Jack stopped and watched from the side, he knew it was from the kidnappers. Covi held her breath and listened to them as well.
"Hahaha, Alistair Mu, you don't have the right to negotiate with me. If you really want to save your wife, ready twenty million! And I must warn you not to alert the police. Otherwise, I'm afraid you will definitely regret it. I will call you in one hour!" After saying that, he ended the call right away.
"You... Hey! HEY!!!" When Alistair Mu still wanted to say something, the call ended. Alistair Mu gripped his phone furiously and almost slammed it on the floor.
He turned his head towards Jack, "Get ready twenty million cash and a car!"
Jack nodded and hurried off right away. He knew that it was the kidnappers' demand in exchange of Annabelle Xia and he had no time to waste.
Alistair Mu contemplated for a while and walked back into his company.
"President Mu, let me go with you!" Covi said.
Alistair Mu looked at her and his eyes were fearless, "I am the one they want. If you go, you will just endanger yourself. I cannot let you and Annabelle get involved in such trouble!" Covi stood behind the man, "Please get Annabelle back safely!"
Alistair Mu nodded and hurried into the company.
One hour later, the cash and the car was ready.
Alistair Mu received a call on time.
"I have sent you the location already. Just follow the address. And if you dare to play any tricks, I will make sure that you will never see her for the rest of your life!" The kidnapper threatened him.
Alistair Mu spoke to the phone, "Don't worry, I will do as you say!" After saying that, he ended the call and wanted to leave with the bag of money.
Jack hurried forward and said, "President Mu, I'll go with you!"
"No, they want me to go alone. I cannot risk Annabelle's safety. I might need you in the company as well. Don't let anyone else know about this!" Alistair Mu gave a strict instruction. Jack nodded right away, "Okay, I understand!"
After saying that, Alistair Mu rushed away.
Jack stood in front of the company and he just couldn't feel restful. Just a thought that something might happen to Annabelle Xia struck fear in him!
"Okay, I got it. I'm already downstairs. See you in ten minutes!" Ralphy Xia said as he was driving. After he was done, he clicked on his Bluetooth ear piece.
Once he parked his car and got
down the door, he saw a car driving past him. At that time, it just happened that he was closing the door and he was facing the right direction. Through the window, he seemed to see a familiar figure...
Annabelle Xia!
However, there were two men that dragged her back brutally.
Ralphy Xia's eyebrows knitted closely.
Was he mistaken? But as he tried to squint his eyes and doublecheck, the car left.
Ralphy Xia stood there and all of the sudden he had a bad intuition. In the end, he couldn't wrestle the restlessness in his heart and he could back in the car and followed after them...
The moment he chased after their direction, the van was gone.
The man kept searching in the same direction and he tried to recall the earlier sight.
Although he had been a year since he last saw her, he was assured by the side view that it was indeed the woman he misses night and day...
It was impossible for him to be mistaken!
When he was searching slowly in the street, he saw another car revving dangerously right past him.
And he could recognize that car plate number. It belonged to Alistair Mu!
With Alistair Mu's sudden appearance...
It was almost guaranteed that the person in the car was Annabelle Xia!
As Ralphy Xia recalled the earlier scene, he knew that something might happened to Annabelle Xia. He quickly stepped on the gas and followed Alistair Mu...
The moment they reached the destination.
Annabelle Xia was dragged out from the car. When she checked the surroundings, she saw that it was an abandoned factory.
She didn't know where it was at all.
"Move!" One of them pushed Annabelle Xia violently. The woman lost her balance and almost fell down. She turned around and looked at the man and followed after them. She had a hunch that it wasn't a simple kidnapping.
Right after she walked in a building, she saw a person that back faced her.
"We brought her!" The two men said.
At that time, the man in front slowly turned over. The moment Annabelle Xia saw the man, she was stupefied.
Director Lee?
Annabelle Xia's pupils dilated in disbelief.
Wasn't he apprehended?
What was she doing there?
Annabelle Xia's eyes were filled with shock and confusion.
The moment director Lee saw Annabelle Xia, he sneered threateningly and looked at the two men, "If the two of you are willing to stay and finish your job today, I will give each one of you five million!"
Five million?!!?
That was an astronomical figure. The two men exchanged a look and blurted, "Are you serious!?"
"Of course, I demanded twenty million from Alistair Mu!" Director Lee said.
Annabelle Xia's eyes dimmed in distress.
The two men hesitated for a while and made up their mind, "Deal! You better not go back on your words!"
"Don't worry, you will get your money!" Director Lee said.
The two men nodded and accepted his deal.
At that time, director Lee threw a handcuff over and said, "Cuff her over there!"
One men walked over, picked up her handcuff and did as he instructed. Annabelle Xia was cuffed in front of an iron pole.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
