Baron’s brows slightly furrowed.

This James was completely unheard of. He shouldn’t have any past grievances with him, let alone the Stone family.

But why would he be connected to Natalie’s kidnapping?

“You just said you saw James in Ocean City? Is that true? When? Where did you see him? Did you expose your location?”

Baron fired off several questions in quick succession.

Beth shook her head.

“No, he didn’t see me. But I’d recognize him even if he were turned to ash. I saw him meeting a woman in her fifties in a park not far from here. He was acting suspiciously, so I was extra cautious and hid. Oh, right, I also took a video.”

Saying this, Beth found the video and handed it to Natalie and Baron.

When they saw the video, the first person they spotted was Rachel.

The person contacting James was actually Rachel! Indeed, this Rachel had a backup plan!

On one hand, she wanted to use Jensen’s connections to escape Ocean City, but fearing it wasn’t secure, she secretly sought out this James?

To own a cruise ship on the high seas is definitely not something an ordinary person can manage.

It’s likely there are others behind this James.

Baron never expected that by simply bringing Natalie to see Beth, he would stumble upon such a crucial clue.

He quickly called Shauna.

“Check the residential areas near Ocean Park for any properties owned by a person named James.”

Choosing this location for a meeting meant James definitely wasn’t staying in a hotel.

And how could a person who owns a cruise ship be broke?

So, he likely owns property here!

And perhaps Rachel is here too.

Natalie clearly thought of this as well.

She asked quietly, “Do you think Jensen might be around here too?”

“Possibly.” Baron nodded, but said calmly, “However, Rachel shouldn’t harm him, and there’s no need for us to risk danger to save him, is there? Honey, I know Jensen saved you from Anna before, but that debt was repaid during your five years with him. He owes you now.”

Hearing Baron say this, Natalie knew he misunderstood.

She whispered, “I don’t want to save him. I was thinking that if Jensen is around here, maybe we can use him to stall Rachel? We can control James first; maybe we can get some clues out of him.”

Baron immediately chuckled.

“My wife and I are indeed in sync. I also wanted to control James first, but we don’t need Jensen to stall Rachel. Rachel doesn’t have the energy to worry about James‘ life or death right now.”

Beth showed no opposition to them discussing capturing James right in front of her.

Although she and her son were safer living here, who knew if they might run into James in the future? Just like her: she only went out to the nearby farmers market to buy a fresh rooster for her son and ran into the sneaky James. What if she wasn’t careful one day and James spotted her?

Rather than living in constant fear like this, it was better to turn James in.

At least her and her son’s future lives would be secured.

“I know James has a habit. He likes to go for a night run around six o’clock in the evening. If he really lives in a nearby community, then waiting in the park around six should definitely lead to encountering him.”

Beth willingly shared everything she knew.

Before Baron could speak, Natalie whispered, “He might have had that habit before, but he might not do it today.”

“Why?”

Beth didn’t know about Rachel’s situation, so she instinctively asked.

Natalie didn’t know how to explain it to her.

Just then, Baron stood up, picked up his phone, and called Shauna.

“Find a few unfamiliar faces and have them stake out near Ocean Park. I’ll send you a photo in a moment. Have our people grab this person the moment they see him.”
