NovelOnlineThe thug sat back down with a grunt, grumbling under his breath. "Shit... I've been in this line of work for years,
and I've never dealt with a hostage this damn difficult. Boss, is that Andrew guy she mentioned really that big of
a deal?"
The guy driving was the leader, Corey Stone. He grunted without looking back. "Big deal or not, | do know he's
laid hands on both of the Ackermann brothers and even roughed up Elon from the Golding family. So, let's not
push our luck. Stick to the job and keep it clean. We don't need this blowing up in our faces."
The younger one scoffed and glanced at Lauren, clearly tempted by her flawless curves and flushed cheeks.
"Alright, fine, we won't mess her up... but con, let the guys at least cop a feel, huh? That's not gonna hurt
anybody."
Before Corey could respond, Lauren lashed out. "Screw you! What, never seen a woman before? Go take a good
look at yourself in the mirror! Do you really think someone like you can lay a finger on me?"
She hissed, "You want to be a kidnapper? Fine! Stick to that lane! Are you trying to mix assault with your crimes?
Be a man and take off that mask. Letsee that disgusting face of yours!
"Deep down, you know you're nothing! A loser like you could never touch a girl like me, someone this fine?
Dream on!"
The entire van fell silent. The kidnapper, who had been cursed at, widened his eyes in disbelief and anger.
Corey shook his head, "Don't mess with this woman. Other than her husband, probably no one can handle her!
We just deliver her, then get the hell out-this one's way above our pay grade."
By 7.30 p.m., Francesca and Aspen were back at Serenity Villa, and even Shiloh had returned from her part-time
job. However, Lauren was nowhere to be found. Her phone was dead, and there had not been a word from her.
Andrew had already checked in with the Rhodes family, but they had no clue either. The moment he hung up, his
face turned stone cold.
He said, "Get ready. We're heading to the Driscoll residence to get her back."

dangerous!"
Andrew's voice dropped to a chilling low. "I don't care. If Joe or Walter had anything to do with this, | swear, I'll
turn the entire Driscoll compound
into a river of blood."
Just then, someone ran up to the gate. The man shouted,
villa'soyd here? I'm Gary-from
"Is Mr
the Hickman family! | need tosee him!"
Andrew stepped out of the house at once.
Gary rushed up, panting. "Mr. Lloyd! Ms. Rhodes has been taken!"
Andrew narrowed his eyes. "I know she was taken. If you chere just to waste my time, get the hell out now
before | make you."
Gary trembled from head to toe. "Please, Mr. Lloyd! Don't get mad! I-I know who did it! It was Liliana from the
Peck family!"
Behind them, Francesca gasped.

He added, "Even Mr. Driscoll lost to you. We may act tough, but when it's life or death, we know who not to

Andrew gave him a cold, mocking glance. "At least you're pretty smart. Now, lead the way. | want to find that
