Chapter 480 No Signal
An hour later, Kathleen and Samuel arrived at the castle.
Desiree ran over with tears streaming down her cheeks. “Mommy, Eil’s gone.”
Kathleen stroked Desiree’s head. “Don’t worry. I’ve found Eil’s whereabouts.”
Gemma walked over, panicking. “I’m so sorry, Kate. I didn’t know this would happen.”
She was so worried that she cried many times.
Kathleen consoled, “Gem, it’s not your fault. Pack your things. We’re going back to our country this instant.”
“Okay!” Gemma left to pack her things.
The others, too, started making the preparations.
Right then, Samuel’s phone rang.
Kathleen walked over as soon as she heard that.
Samuel then glanced at the name on the phone screen — Leonard.
“Hello?” Samuel furrowed his brows slightly. “How did it go?”
“We don’t see Eil anywhere. It’s weird. We checked the entire plane as soon as it landed, but we didn’t see him anywhere. Even the signal’s gone,” Leonard said dejectedly.
Samuel frowned. “Send me the list of passengers.”
He was going to search for Eilam on his own.
“Okay.” Leonard nodded.
The list was sent to Samuel not long after ending the call.
Kathleen knew the situation was not looking good.
Leonard must’ve failed to find Eil. Otherwise, Samuel won’t be looking like that now.
Gemma, who was done packing her things, walked over. “Kate, I’ll take care of Desi.”
Although there was nothing Gemma could do to find Eilam, she wanted to do whatever she could to help.
“Okay.” Kathleen bobbed her head.
Gemma soon took Desiree’s hand. “Desi, why don’t you come to my room?”
“Okay.” Desiree nodded obediently.
When the duo had left, Kathleen looked at Samuel’s phone and studied the name list with him.
Kathleen analyzed, “These people look normal.”
Samuel pulled her over to the couch to take a seat. “What do you think is their purpose of holding Eil captive?”
“To threaten us,” Kathleen answered plainly.
“Correct. That means Eil will be fine as long as they haven’t told us what they want. Now, who do you think is more desperate?” Samuel asked.
“Luna wants Desi because she has the same blood type as her grandson. Could it be Ashley, then?” asked Kathleen.
Samuel’s eyes glinted with hostility. “We’ll find out soon.”
His men had been secretly tracking Ashley all this time.
While waiting for the updates, Kathleen and the others packed their things and went to the airport.
They did not receive a single piece of information, even when they boarded the plane.
It made Kathleen extremely nervous during the entire journey.
After all, those people would still harm Eilam in the end, even if they were not doing that for now.
About ten hours later, Samuel, Kathleen, and the rest finally arrived at the airport.
Leonard approached them and was stunned by Gemma’s appearance.
She’s still alive? Richard has been wasting his life away ever since she died. Then again, it serves him right.
“Yadiel, please sent Gemma and Desi to the Macari residence. Gem, please stay there for now. If you want to contact your brother, you can give him a call,” Samuel instructed calmly.
“All right.” Gemma nodded.
Hence, Yadiel took them to the Macari residence.
Samuel gave Leonard a serious glance. “Where are they?”
“They’re detained in the dark room. Should we question them one by one?” asked Leonard.
