The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 506

Tara takes a deep breath, focusing all her attention as she boots up her laptop. Leaning into her extensive hacker skills, she traces the digital footprint left behind by the brief message Bianca sent her just moments ago. Her fingers fly across the keyboard, lines of code cascading down the screen like a waterfall. It doesn't take long. After a complex web of network probes and data analysis, she locks onto her best friend's exact coordinates.

"She's in some remote village?" Tara murmurs to herself, frowning at the screen.

There is absolutely no way Bianca went there willingly. As a daughter of the powerful Turner family, Bianca grew up wrapped in the lap of luxury. She vacations at exclusive resorts, dines in five-star restaurants, and surrounds herself with elegance. She would never wander off to a desolate mountain town by herself. Someone has kidnapped her. But are they targeting Bianca, or are they using her to get to Tara? She can't be sure, but she doesn't waste another second overthinking it.

Memorizing the coordinates, Tara springs into action. The village is so isolated that the GPS barely registers its existence. She grabs a high-performance off-road SUV, assuming it will chew through the rugged mountain trails with ease. But as the terrain turns treacherous, even the powerful vehicle struggles. The tires spin in the thick mud, and after nearly sliding into a deep ditch, she is forced to abandon the car and continue on foot.

Dusk bleeds into the sky, casting long, eerie shadows over the mountain. Cell service drops to zero, and the dirt path only gets worse. She kicks a rock in frustration, wishing she had brought a dirt bike instead.
