Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 171

Christina tensed up as she screamed in panic, “Who are you people? Let go of me!”

What’s going on here? Are these people muggers or something? The car stopped right in front of me, though. Were these people waiting for me?

Christina was snapped out of her train of thought when a pungent smell filled her nose. The next thing she knew, her vision went black, and she passed out.

“This woman sure looks hot!” said one of the men with a leer.

“Cut the chit–chat! Let’s get her out of here!” said another man.

The car then sped off and disappeared behind a corner.

The employees of Radiant Corporation were preparing to open the new store up for business the next morning.

It wasn’t until they started working that they realized Christina was absent.

“Ms. Tanner, I can’t get through to Ms. Steele, What should we do?” asked one of Christina’s colleagues. Gina got worried as she knew Christina wasn’t the type to go absent without leave, especially on such an important day.

This is the new store’s first day of operation, so there’s no way she’d miss out on it!

“I’ll try calling her. You guys stick to the plan and carry on as usual.”

Having assigned everyone their tasks, Gina stepped aside and called Christina a few times. However, all of her calls went unanswered.

Fearing that Christina could be in danger, Gina hesitantly called Nathaniel to inform him of the situation. She then went back to check on the work progress after ending the call.

Nathaniel, who was busy handling some urgent documents from overseas, phoned Scenic Garden Manor after hanging up.

The butler answered the phone and told him that Christina had not returned since last night. When he heard that, Nathaniel’s eyes filled with anger, and he realized Christina was in trouble.

The look on his face turned incredibly gloomy as he ordered, “Check the footage from all of Radiant Corporation’s surveillance cameras and find out what happened last night!”

Sebastian had never seen Nathaniel look that scary his entire life.

“I’m on it!” He didn’t dare waste another second.

Meanwhile, a man easily carried Christina, who was still unconscious, into an old and abandoned warehouse.

Christina groaned in pain when he tossed her onto the floor. Her mind was still a little foggy as she slowly came to her senses, but the sight of the thugs standing in front of her shocked her so much that it cleared

her head instantly.

The thugs were all eyeing her from head to toe with disgusting, lecherous grins on their faces.

“Whoa! Her skin is milky smooth!”

“She’s got a really pretty face too!”

The guys snickered as they commented on Christina’s body, much to her disgust.

It became clear as day what the thugs wanted to do to her. Christina got so scared that she was trembling

all over.

Stay calm! Don’t panic! You need to figure something out as quickly as possible! You can do this, Christina!

Christina clenched her fists tightly in an attempt to calm herself down.

One of the men reached out to grab her by the shoulder.

Christina tried to move out of the way, but he still managed to tear a piece of her jacket off, revealing the silky smooth skin of her slender shoulder.

“Please don’t hurt me! I’ll pay you guys any amount of money you want!” she exclaimed in an attempt to negotiate with them.

The man leading the group let out a disdainful snort. “Hmph! An office worker like you can’t possibly have a lot of money! I doubt you even have a few thousand in your bank account!”

The person who sent the thugs had told them that Christina was a nobody, so they didn’t have to worry about any repercussions.

The man quickly snatched the phone over and exchanged surprised glances with the other thugs. My goodness! It really is Mr. Hadley of Hadley Corporation!
