Buying My Forever Wife novel Chapter 272

Ivy brought the child to the laboratory at Foster Medical Center, where a specialist guided them to the blood-draw room.

Afraid that the little girl might cry, the doctor allowed Ivy to draw the blood herself.

Perhaps because she had her mother by her side, Stella didn't shed a single tear this time.

The entire process went incredibly smoothly.

To reward her bravery, Ivy promised to take her to The Wonderdome afterward.

The two left the hospital in high spirits, entirely unaware they were being watched.

Madeline sat in her parked luxury sedan, her eyes narrowing as she watched Ivy walk by, hand in hand with a child.

She recognized her immediately as the culprit who had sent her daughter to prison.

Why should her daughter be left to rot behind bars?

While this Ivy got to live her life as if nothing had happened?

Madeline turned to her bodyguard.

"Do you see those two? Find a way to bring them to my villa on the outskirts of the city."

The bodyguard nodded in understanding and slipped out of the car to tail them.

The moment Ivy and Stella stepped out of the driver's car at the entrance of The Wonderdome and waved him off, a stranger immediately blocked Ivy's path, pretending to ask for directions.

Before Ivy could even open her mouth to reply, the man clamped a chloroform-soaked cloth over her face.

Within seconds, her vision went black.

She was unceremoniously hauled into a waiting van.

Stella suffered the same fate, rendered unconscious and dragged into the vehicle.

When Ivy finally woke up, she found herself tied securely to a chair. Her surroundings were damp, freezing, and dimly lit.

Panic seized her as the realization hit—she had been kidnapped.

Worse, the child was nowhere to be seen.

Ivy was frantic.

She desperately screamed into the darkness, "Stella! Stella, where are you?"

"Is anyone there?! Why did you bring me here?"

She had been itching to destroy this girl for a long time, but the opportunity had never presented itself.

She hadn't expected to get so lucky outside of Foster Medical Center today.

Whenever she thought of her daughter suffering behind bars, Madeline wanted nothing more than to tear Ivy to pieces.

"Your daughter?"

Realization dawned on Ivy. "You're Summer Vance's mother?"

Madeline didn't deny it.

"If it weren't for you, my daughter would never have been locked up by her uncle. You forced her to suffer in a cell, so don't expect to have a good life either."

She grabbed a handful of Ivy's hair and delivered another stinging slap.

Bound hand and foot, Ivy couldn't dodge or fight back.

But the burning pain was nothing compared to her terror for Stella. Enduring the blows, she desperately cried out,

"Where is the child who was with me?! What did you do to her? Please, don't hurt her! If you want revenge, just punish me!"
