The Genius Ex-Wife’s Revenge Portfolio novel Chapter 672

David glanced at his phone. The number on the screen was unfamiliar.

Aiden leaned in. “Boss, I’ve never seen that number before. Any idea who’s calling you?”

David frowned, just as clueless. He picked up the phone and answered.

A clear, familiar voice came through. “Hi, Mr. Harmon. It’s me, Ella.”

David froze. Ella? He couldn’t believe it. He never imagined she’d call him.

She had changed her number three years ago. He thought she was already gone, probably on a plane by now. Hearing from her now hit him with a rush of shock and relief.

He gripped the phone tighter, his voice shaky with emotion. “Ella, are you gone already?”

“Mr. Harmon, I was about to leave, but something happened. Lola and Mrs. Harmon got kidnapped.”

For a second, David couldn’t process her words. Someone took Lola and his mother?

He shot to his feet, voice sharp and urgent. “What did you say? Who took Lola and my mom?”

Ella quickly explained what had happened. David didn’t hesitate. “Wait for me at the airport. I’m coming right now.”

Aiden’s eyes widened. “Boss, something happened to Miss Lola and your mother?”

David’s gaze turned icy. “Someone dared to pull this stunt on my turf? Whoever it is, they’re finished. I’ll find them, no matter what.”

She shook her head. “I just got to the Capital. I haven’t had time to offend anyone.”

“What about Wyatt?” David asked suddenly.

Ella hesitated, caught off guard by the question. Why bring up Wyatt now?

David explained. “He’s Lola’s father. Maybe someone has a problem with him, and they took Lola to get back at him.”

Ella stayed quiet for a moment, then shook her head. “No way. That’s not possible.”

David was silent, thinking hard. “This is the Capital. My mom getting caught up in this wasn’t part of their plan. That means they’ll be careful. I bet whoever did this will contact us soon. All we can do now is wait.”

“Wait?” Ella’s voice trembled. “What if they don’t? Lola’s just a little girl, only three years old. She’s never been away from me. I’m terrified…”
