Sweet Subterfuge novel by Trina Duo novel Chapter 984

Bethany's death was still tied to Kevan.

It all started from the day Cody escaped.

Although Soaring Corporation had not been doing well these past few years and eventually went bankrupt, Cody had been in power for some time. He still managed to raise a few supporters.

As a result, Cody got news beforehand and escaped with his luggage before the police arrived at his home.

The police put out an arrest warrant, and Kevan got his people to look for Cody too.

But before Cody could be found, Kevan got a phone call from Cody first.

Cody's voice was harsh and arrogant. "Kevan Rogers! Your daughter is in my hands! If you want her to live, prepare 100 million in cash and a car, and park that at number 28 on Peach Lane!

"Do not fucking call the police! Once I get the money and the car, I will let your daughter go!"

"Don't touch her." Kevan pretended to be panicked to keep Cody there. "I can do the money and the car. I just want Bethany to come back safely."

"You have half the day! Before midnight, I want to see both things!" Cody hung up after saying that.

Kevan, of course, was not going to take the money to get Bethany back.

He promised Cody just so he could slow Cody down, and the man would not be able to find another victim.

Kevan called Bethany's nanny first. It took a long while for someone to answer.

The person who answered was a nurse from the emergency department.

She said that the nanny was attacked by robbers who entered the house, and the nanny was currently undergoing emergency treatment at the hospital.

The nurse did not mention Bethany, but since the robbers had already broken into the house and hurt the nanny, it seemed that Bethany was really with Cody.

Kevan called the police at once. The police drove and parked an empty car at number 28 Peach Lane, and they also prepared an ambush around the place. However, they did not catch Cody, but a random person who was paid by Cody to drive the car away.
