Chapter 250
After Dominic learned that Autumn had gone missing as well, he sat on the sofa and frowned in thought.
Strangely, he did not feel as urgent anymore. Something about the situation felt wrong.
Isabella, Jessica, and Autumn were all connected to him. Which meant the target was him.
With that realization, Dominic’s expression eased slightly. As long as they were not harmed, everything remained negotiable.
If his judgment was correct, the other party would contact him soon.
Katherine bit her lip. “Dominic, what should we do next?”
His gaze stayed calm. He answered with a single word. “Wait.”
The wait stretched until 6:00 p.m.
Suddenly, the phone on the coffee table began to vibrate.
Seeing an unfamiliar number, Dominic answered at once.
“Hehe. Dominic Fleming. Hello there.” The voice on the other end sounded dark and unpleasant.
Dominic drew a deep breath and spoke in a low voice. “Who are you? Did you kidnap them?”
The man laughed. “Correct, but guessing it right gets you nothing. If you want to save them, come to the abandoned unfinished building next to the garbage incineration plant in the south of Skyline City. I’ll be waiting upstairs. Be late, and you’re out of luck.
“Oh, and don’t call the police. Otherwise, I’ll kill the hostages. You know who those three women are. Killing even one of them will bring consequences you can’t bear. Hahahaha.”
The call ended.
Dominic wasted no time. He stood and said, “Katherine, take good care of Lily.”
With that, he turned to leave.
Suddenly, someone grabbed his arm.
He turned back and met Katherine’s worried gaze.
She stared at him for several seconds before speaking in a trembling voice. “Dominic… be careful.”
Dominic smiled faintly, patted the back of her hand, and said, “Don’t worry. I’ll bring them back.”
He was no longer the man he used to be. If he truly fought with his life on the line, his combat ability would be terrifying
Katherine’s heart raced. As Dominic moved to leave, an impulse surged through her. She stepped forward and hugged him from behind.
Dominic’s body stiffened at once. Then he heard her soft whisper. “Dominic, Lily and I will wait for you at home”
He did not turn around. He gave a quiet acknowledgment.
Only then did Katherine let go.
Dominic did not delay further. He got into the old Audi and drove toward the south of the city
Under normal circumstances, he should have informed the Garcias, the Sinclairs, or even the Hales family Yet the phone call. had only deepened his sense that something was wrong
The man clearly knew the three women’s backgrounds and still dared to kidnap them under those conditions

That led Dominic to a startling suspicion. Could all of this be something they staged themselves?
When he thought of ‘her‘ lawless personality, the likelihood suddenly felt high. Either way, he would know once he saw them.
Half an hour later, Doninc arrived at the abandoned unfinished building.
The main structure remained intact, but the place felt stark and crude, with bare concrete everywhere.
Dominic did not hesitate and headed straight upstairs.
The building had ten floors. When he reached the top, he saw them immediately.
The rooftop lay flat, without railings of any kind. Three women sat on separate chairs, their heads tilted, clearly unconscious.
Aside from them, only one burly woman stood behind the chairs.
She held a handgun.
She sneered, “Dominic Fleming, I didn’t expect you’d actually have the guts to come.”
