The whip was raised high before it was brought down with force.
With a sharp crack, Sydney's skin was torn open. A piercing scream shattered the night.
-
Christopher had called Sydney several times that day, but she hadn't answered. He felt uneasy, sensing that something was wrong.
He decided to send someone to investigate and soon discovered a clue from the Spencers, learning that Sydney had gone missing. Growing more alarmed, Christopher immediately sent people to search for her.
At the same time, he was looking into the Spencers' activities and found that they were searching for a watch.
This watch was one of only a few dozen in the world; excluding foreign owners, only a few people in Blencalgo possessed one. Following the trail, Christopher made an even more shocking discovery.
One of the people who owned this watch was his mother.
He called his mother, but she didn't pick up. He sent her a message, but she didn't reply.
Christopher drove straight to his mother's house.
The lights in the villa were off, and he honked the horn repeatedly until the gate opened. Xyla, hearing the noise, put on her clothes and walked out.
She saw Christopher's grim expression as he got out of the car.
"Chris, why are you here at this hour?"
Christopher's face was ashen. He immediately grabbed Xyla by the arm and asked, "Is Mom home?"
"She's not here. She's been very busy lately, always out."
"Do you know what she's been busy with lately?"
Seeing the grim expression on Christopher's face, Xyla became worried. "What's going on, Chris?"
"Just answer me. What has she been busy with?" Christopher's voice rose.
Xyla was startled and hurriedly replied, "I'm not sure exactly, but I think she's been dealing with some financial investments."

The readers' comments on the novel: Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore)
Why aren't u updating......
Unrealistic. What a comedy. If Sebastian and Rosalie are cousins, their families must have already prevented them to be together abroad. Isn't it bizarre that nobody is doing something to let them know of their family relationship? And pls stop putting Aurora in a high pedestal. Your readers want Rosalie to be genuinely happy,free of stupid misunderstanding. Thank you....
Another garbled story with lots of gibberish. Absolute rubbish. I got to chapter 26 and can't anymore...
Too many people involve.. sigh~ this is like the most angst novel i've read.....
I just wish one thing...that the writer will not bring too many unnecessary and unrealistic twists,too many misunderstanding,miscommunication that gives the reader the hint not to continue with the novel. In the long run, We lost our interest in this kind of unending plot....
Thanks for the update !...
