Chapter 405

aking a nap at the Thornton Group, Victoria was just about to head back to Brightstar Entertainment when the call from Daisy.

ictoria, you need to come home right now. Nathan’s here with some people, looking for Geoffrey” Daisy sand

“Alright,” Victoria replied.

After hanging up. Victoria couldn’t help but smile. Nathan really picked the perfect time to show up. If I’d been even a butle slower in moving Geoffrey, he would’ve caught me red-handed, she thought.

But she’d already figured it out. With Nathan still nursing his injuries, he was barely able to take care of himself, let alone worry about Geoffrey for the next few days.

Jack. I’m heading home” Victoria said as she grabbed her coat and wrapped her scarf around her neck. She walked out of the cubicle, calling out to Jackson, who was busy at has desk.

Jackson looked up from has computer, a hint of surprise in his eyes. “Home Weren’t you going to Brightstar

Entertainment?

“Nathan’s brought people to the Bander family to look for Groffry I need to go back and take care of it.” Victoria explained, already at the door

“Alright… Oh, and about introducing you to my friends. I’ve already talked to them. We re meeting this Saturday night at Mimiburg How does that waned” Jackson said before she opened the door

Victoria blinked Sounds good I’ll make sure to dress up so you won’t embarrass yourself in front of your friends. Bye, talk to you tonight With that she walked out and closed the door behind her

Jackson watched the door close a faint saule his lips. All my ends already know Vickie. They all know how drop-dead gorgeous she is. She does need to make any extra effort, he taught

So you’re really not opening the door? fine. If you won’t settle dis quietly, I’ll have to call the police!” After intimidating the bodyguards at the Binder family, the Clark family’s butler Corey pulled out his phone and dialed.

“Hello, this is the Binder family estate on Crotto Road Someone is being held here against their will; kidnapping and illegal detention. Please send officers over

After hanging up. Corey gave a hard glare at the bodyguards behind the ornate iron gate, then walked up to the luxury car parked nearby and reported to Nathan, “Mr. Clark, I’ve already called the police.”

“Okay” Nathan replied coldly, his eyes fixed on the Binder family’s gate, his fingers tightly gripping Miranda’s favorite beaded bracelet

He’d had the scattered beads restrung, just waiting for Miranda o be released so she could once again hold her beloved bracelet

Her voice was crisp and sweet, but laced with obvious sarcasm; Victoria was pressing all the right buttons, clearly aiming to make Nathan squirm.

Corey, standing outside waiting for the cops, snapped, “Victoria, don’t push it!”

Victoria giggled. “How am I pushing it? I’m just checking in on your boss. Did I guess right? Was he actually blown up?”

“You…” Corey stammered, about to lose it.

But Nathan cut him off coldly. “Enough, Victoria. I’m not here to play word games with you.”

“Oh? So what are you here for? To let me see you all banged up so I can roast you?” Victoria teased, grinning.

Nathan shot her a cold, deadpan look. “Is Geoffrey, at your place?

“Oh, you mean my cousin? Yeah, he showed up at my place a few days ago looking for his mom, but he already left today. Didn’t he go back to your place?” Victoria clicked her tongue.

“Honestly, when I found him, he looked like hell. If I hadn’t picked him up and patched him up at my place, he probably would’ve died on the street.”

Hearing that Geoffrey was hurt, Nathan’s face turned even darker. “Geoffrey was hurt?”

Victoria nodded, grinning. “Yeah, and guess what? He said you were the one who roughed him up.”

“That’s crap!” Corey snapped. “Mr. Clark would never lay a finger on Mr. Geoffrey!”

Victoria shrugged. “What’s so impossible about that? Geoffrey’s my cousin; my aunt’s kid. Didn’t Mr. Clark kick Geoffrey’s mom out of the Clark family, so he took it out on my cousin, too Makes perfect sense, doesn’t it?”

Just then, the police showed up. “What’s going on here?” the lead officer asked as he walked up, his gaze lingering on Nathan when he spotted him in the car.

Corey wasted no time filling him in. The lead officer then headed over to Victoria’s car with his team. “Open the door. We’re here to look for someone.”

Victoria didn’t move an inch. She raised an eyebrow and said, “Do you have a search warrant? You think I’m just going to open the door because you tell me to?”

The lead officer’s brow furrowed, but he kept his composure and replied, “We’re just following standard procedure. If there’s nothing wrong here, you won’t be affected. But if someone really is missing, we have to step in to ensure their safety.”

Victoria’s lips curled into a scornful smile. “Oh, so that’s your procedure? Searching private property without a warrant? That’s a new one for me.”

composure. The lead officer’s expression darkened; he hadn’t expected Victoria to push back so firmly, but he kept his isn’t a random search; we have reasonable grounds to suspect someone is missing. We’ll obtain a warrant to ensure everything is legal.”

“This

appeared uneasy. He wasn’t certain, but honestly, there was nowhere else

Victoria was just putting on a show, hoping they’d back off so she could move Geoffrey out without anyone noticing. After a brief pause, Corey replied with absolute certainty, I’m sure Mr. Geoffrey is inside!”

The lead officer said, “Alright, let the butler in to look around. If he doesn’t find anyone, you can take him to court for

slander.”

Corey hesitated, then looked over at Nathan. Nathan’s expression was dark, but he said nothing.

“No problem, officers. You can all come in and search, I’ve got nothing to hide, Victoria said, then turned to the bodyguards inside. “Open the gate. Let the cops and Mr. Clark in. Let’s see if I’m really holding my cousin hostage or anything.”
