Nicole paused. The kidnapper abruptly grabbed her wrist, and Nicole went numb.
"You...."
Before Nicole finished speaking, the kidnapper knocked Nicole unconscious.
Nicole slowly fell down.
The kidnapper quickly caught Nicole. Looking around, he made sure that nobody paid attention to them, so he picked her up horizontally and threw her onto the van. Then, he drove away from the other side of the alley.
Olivia could see Nicole just now, but in the blink of an eye, Nicole disappeared.
Olivia was thrown into panic.
"Nicole! Nicole! Where are you?"
Olivia wanted to search around. But there were too many people around her, making it impossible for her to move a single step.
Olivia had no choice but to shout, "Someone got killed!"
As soon as Olivia screamed, the crowd immediately spread out.
Taking advantage of this gap, Olivia quickly ran to where Nicole was just now. But Nicole was out of sight.
In panic, Olivia burst into tears.
"Jacob, Nicole is missing. What should I do? She was still there just now. But she disappears all of a sudden."
Olivia hurriedly called Jacob.
Hearing this, Jacob was dumbfounded.
"Where is Nicole missing?"
"Hurry up and come!"
When Jacob heard Olivia cry so hard that she was out of breath, he left the car behind and ran over. But Nicole was out of sight.
The police arrived.
The situation became even more chaotic.
Nicole's identity was special. Jacob directly called the police chief, hoping the latter could check the nearby surveillance cameras so as to find out Nicole's whereabouts.
Hearing that Samuel's wife was missing, the chief did not dare to delay and hurriedly asked a few policemen present to help.
However, the alley behind the Crown Club had no surveillance.
Jacob ran over and found traces of a van's wheels on the ground. It seemed like the kidnapper had just left.
"Get in the car!"
Jacob pulled Olivia into the car. Regardless of whether there was a traffic jam or not, he drove past the flower bed and chased after the tracks of tires in the alley.
Unfortunately, the alley was not far from the intersection, where there was no trace of the van. The intersection was heavy with cars, so it was very difficult to find the van.
Jacob's heart was in his mouth.
What should he do?
Before leaving, Samuel told Jacob to take good care of Nicole and their children. But now Jacob had lost Nicole!
Overwhelmed by a terrible sense of blame, Jacob called Samuel, but Samuel's phone was turned off.
This was something that Jacob had never experienced before. It should be said that ever since he worked for Samuel, he had always been able to contact Samuel. But now, Samuel switched off his phone.
Jacob was anxious, like an ant on a hot pot, while Olivia kept blaming herself.
Jacob had called a dozen times, but he still failed to get through Jacob, so Jacob had no choice but to call Blair.
"Mr. Hawk, do you know where Mr. Green is?"
"I don't know. What's wrong?"
Blair had just returned home. Before he could talk to Gabrielle, he received the phone call from Jacob.
Jacob didn't hide anything.
"Mrs. Green is missing. I called Mr. Green, but he didn't answer. Mr. Hawk, I don't know what you and Mr. Green are up to. But if you know where Mr. Green is, please contact him."
Jacob almost cried.
Blair frowned tightly.
"What do you mean? Isn't Nicole staying at the Bush's?"
"Yes. Everything went well, but Swift suddenly escaped from the Green's. Mrs. Green was worried about Laurel and Lucas, so she planned to go back to the Green's. There was a traffic jam along the way, and something happened to the Crown Club. Mrs. Green went down to check what was going on. There were too many people, so...."
Jacob blamed himself as he spoke. He shouldn't have let Nicole and Olivia out of the car.
However, this was related to Jeannie. Jacob didn't know how to tell Blair about this.
Hearing this, Blair hurriedly grabbed his coat and said, "Have you contacted the police station?"
"Yes, I've. But there's an alley where no surveillance is equipped. We lost our clue."
"Don't worry. I'll be right there."
After hanging up, Blair was about to leave.
"What has happened?"
Gabrielle asked when she saw his panicked expression.
Blair told her about Nicole, and Gabrielle instantly put on a serious look.
"We'd better find Nicole as soon as possible."
"What's wrong?"
He panted like a fish out of water.
Samuel did not know how long this round had lasted, but he knew that this was only the beginning. What followed might be even more difficult to endure.
The moment he lost his consciousness, he wished his mind could be occupied by Nicole and the smiling faces of the children. However, he couldn't control it.
"Do me a favor."
Samuel's voice sounded so weak that few could hear his voice. Then someone quickly appeared in his line of sight.
"Mr. Green, what can I do for you?"
"Develop the pictures of my wife on my phone and stick them around the iron cage."
Samuel's voice was weak, for he was accumulating strength to prepare for the next round of torture.
The subordinate hurriedly agreed and found Samuel's phone according to Samuel's instructions. As soon as he turned on the phone, he saw a few dozen missed calls, which were all from Jacob.
Just as the subordinate was about to tell Samuel about it, he received a phone call from Blair.
"How's Samuel?"
"The first round has just finished. He may rest for about ten minutes, and the second attack will come. I offered to give Mr. Green an injection to relieve the pain, but he disagreed."
The subordinate replied in a low voice.
Blair kept frowning.
"It is not bad. Samuel is not an ordinary person. It is best for him to be able to quit without relying on medicine. However, there is one thing you cannot tell him right now."
"What is it?"
"No matter who calls Samuel, don't tell him and don't let him unlock his phone. Understand? This kind of poison is too strong. Once the treatment starts, it can't be stopped. If it stops halfway, Samuel's future will be ruined. No matter what happens here, I will try my best to solve it. But now, no one can disturb Samuel, understand?"
Blair's voice was very cold, not sounding like a doctor's.
The subordinate immediately understood.
"Yes, Mr. Hawk, I know."
The subordinate quickly deleted Jacob's caller ID. Then, following Samuel's instructions, he found Nicole's photos from Samuel's phone. After quickly developing them, the subordinate pasted them around the iron cage.
Looking at Nicole's photos, Samuel smiled weakly.
Only in this way could he feel that Nicole was with him.
He had to get through it!
'Nicole, wait for me!'
'When I get back, I'll tell you everything. I won't hide anything from you anymore!'
Samuel secretly told himself. The second round of cruel struggle came. He did not know what had happened to Nicole, nor did he know how much Nicole wished him to appear.
