Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1136

Two days later, the authorities apprehended Melvin immediately after receiving the report.

Unfortunately, the past two days had been filled with misery for everyone involved.

The police discovered the Thompsons' nearly wrecked car near the beach, and the driver was gravely injured, ultimately succumbing to his injuries on the way to the hospital.

Nicholas had diligently checked the surveillance footage in various locations but could not locate Lina and Renee. Even the person responsible for taking them had vanished, leaving all fingers pointing at Melvin.

Through their connections, Zuko and Toph managed to gain access to the interrogation room where Melvin was held.

Upon seeing them, Melvin displayed a cunning grin, and a wicked gleam shone in his triangular eyes.

Toph couldn't contain his anger and clenched his fist, ready to strike. However, Melvin remained motionless, coldly observing them before bursting into hysterical laughter.

Toph's punch abruptly halted just as it was about to connect with Melvin's face. Filled with rage, he struck the table with great force, shaking with fury.

Zuko placed a comforting hand on Toph's shoulder and gazed at Melvin with a grim expression.

"Where are they?" Zuko demanded.

Melvin responded with a mocking tone. "Ha! The two young heirs have come just to ask that?"

Toph shouted, "Stop pretending!"

Melvin scoffed and jingled the handcuffs restraining his hands. "You two are too young to challenge me!"

Rage burned in Zuko's eyes. He realized his mistake. While they had been filing the report, Melvin had planted a mole in the Thompson residence. When the police apprehended him, they discovered that Lina and Renee had gone missing.

Melvin was currently at the police station, believing it to be the safest place. "I know Nicholas has surveillance set up everywhere. One reason is to find his precious daughter, but the other reason... Once I leave this police station, his men will kill me! Ha! Am I that foolish? I've already pleaded guilty. Taking shortcuts, embezzling money... I've admitted to it all! As long as I'm in here, Nicholas can't touch me. I'm safe! Hahaha…
