Chapter 223

Liam was truly sparing no effort to capture her this time!

Sophie didn’t date waste any time. She immediately left the hospital through the back door of the underground parking lot.

Inside the hospital, Marcus, wearing a black long leather coat, radiated an icy aura.

Chris, his secretary, rushed over anxiously. “Mr. Morgan, those people had hidden poison in their mouths. When they saw they couldn’t escape, they swallowed it. They’re dead now.”

Marcus‘ gaze darkened, his voice laced with malice.

“Have you found her?”

“Not yet.”

Marcus muttered angrily, “Bunch of useless fools!”

Just ten minutes ago, his people received news that Sophie had landed, but at the same time, they also discovered that she had been kidnapped.

Marcus rushed over, but he was a step too late.

Now, due to him, the situation abroad was in turmoil. Forces from all sides were eager to seize his weakness.

If Sophie truly fell into their hands, the consequences would be unimaginable!

“Lock down the area within a ten–mile radius, find her at all costs!”

After leaving the hospital, Sophie walked south, carefully and cautiously, keeping her mind on alert.

She had no idea how much power Liam had abroad, or who his spies were, so she just kept walking, hoping to stay out of their reach.

Bang!

Screech!

A sharp screeching sound from a car’s tires echoed as Sophie collapsed in front of a white G–Wagon.

The person inside quickly got out, and upon seeing Sophie, a flash of surprise and joy appeared in his amber eyes.

“Sophie, what are you doing here?”

“Take me away.”

Sophie hadn’t been hit by the car. She just suddenly felt dizzy and collapsed.

She had been under immense stress recently, and after the close escape, her body was already on its last legs.

“Okay!” Julian didn’t ask further, instead helping Sophie into the car, and drove straight to his estate.

Halfway there, Sophie drifted into a groggy sleep. When she woke up, it was already the middle of the night.

“You’re finally awake!”

Julian’s eyes were filled with joy as he handed her a cup of warm water.

“Drink some water to soothe your throat first, then have some porridge.”

“The doctor said you’re too weak and need to rest well.”

Sophie didn’t take the water, her tone polite but distant.

“Thank you for bringing me back. Since I’m awake, I’ll leave you to it.”

Sophie wasn’t very familiar with Julian.

In a foreign land, she didn’t trust anyone easily.

Julian noticed her wariness and smiled, putting the water cup down.

“Are you going to look for Marcus now?”

“Do you know where he is?” Sophie asked, her eyes filled with urgency.

Julian shook his head. “I don’t know where he is, but nearly half of the capital in Falyon is looking for him.”

“Everyone knows about your relationship with Marcus, and if you go out now, you’re walking into a trap.”

Sophie furrowed her brow. “What has Marcus done to attract so many capitalists?”

“Five days ago, Falyon economy suddenly fell into turmoil, and even the royal family was affected. Capitalists who were originally rivals decided to join forces after a brief discussion to find the culprit.”

“They quickly identified Marcus as the mastermind behind the turmoil. Everyone speculated that he was trying to use the economic chaos to secure a lifeline for himself and reclaim Morgan Group to regain his position at the top.”

Julian spoke slowly, occasionally glancing at Sophie.

Sophie’s face remained tense. When she heard this news, she finally understood that the unease she had been feeling these days wasn’t without

cause.

Marcus was challenging all the capitalists in Falyon alone. He was walking down a path with no return!

“All the major capitals have united to fight against Marcus. They initially thought that since he has no backing, he would soon be ousted from Falyon capital market.”

“But they were wrong. Not only has Marcus not been defeated, but he also made those high–ranking capitalists fall into a big trap. Now, both sides are at a standoff.”

“When they couldn’t win in the open market, they started planning to target people close to Marcus.”

“But Riverland is Marcus‘ home base. Even though they might have this idea, they dare not reach into Riverland.”

“But now that you’re here, I’m sure all the forces have gotten the news. They must have already started looking for you by now.”

The more Julian spoke, the heavier Sophie’s heart became.

Although coming to Falyon would make her the target of all these forces, she would also prove with her strength that she wasn’t just a parasite by Marcus‘ side. She could be his armor!

From what you’re saying, if I stay here, those people will focus their attention on you as well.”

“Please help me contact Marcus, and have him come pick me up

“TII leave by noon tomorrow, whether you’ve found Marcos for not. Sophie said Army.

A complicated expression crossed Julian’s fare, but it disappeared in an instant.

He smiled and said. “Alright.”
