The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 851

Alfonso hurried to the hospital, where Roxanne underwent surgery.

The news that she had surgery here had just reached them, so they hurried over to check on her.

Surprisingly, they discovered no one.

"Why is there no one here?"

Alfonso furrowed his brow as he gazed at the empty ward.

"Didn't you say my wife and daughter are here?" he asked Asher's assistant, Emre. "Where have they gone?"

Emre looked around but couldn't find anyone. He looked perplexed.

"Our men discovered your daughter had heart transplant surgery here and she had been admitted to this hospital."

Alfonso exclaimed angrily, "But she's gone!"

A nurse happened to be walking by.

With lightning speed, he grabbed her and demanded, "Nurse, can you tell me where the patient who was staying here went?"

The nurse gave an honest response, saying, "She has been transferred."

"Transfer?"

When Alfonso learned of this, he demanded angrily, "Who transferred her? When did this happen?"

"In the afternoon," the nurse stammered, startled. "I have no idea who transferred her. What I do know is that someone came by, finished up the paperwork to release her, and took her away."

Alfonso was pacing back and forth anxiously.

Emre, meanwhile, kept his cool and quietly inquired, "Is there any surveillance footage? Could you please show us?"

When they tried to watch the tape, they found that the recording had been deleted. All hints had vanished.

Alfonso was pulling at his hair and appearing very upset.

"Who kidnapped my little girl? Why don't you guys take another look at it?"

Emre gave him a sidelong glance. There was a hint of displeasure in his eyes as he chided, "Mind your attitude! You're asking us for help!"

Alfonso was taken aback, but he quickly apologized, saying, "I'm sorry. I'm just too stressed out about everything right now.

Emre scoffed, "Your daughter had always been with Claude; maybe he took her away."

"Claude?"

"Yes, it must be him!" Alfonso agreed, perplexed. "Quite a capable man, that one."

Emre said icily, "He probably won't harm your daughter because he gave her a heart transplant. Let's go back for now, and we'll figure out what to do next later."

Following that, the group returned.

When they returned empty-handed, Asher inquired, "Weren't you going to find someone? Why did you return empty-handed?"

"By the time we got there, she had been transferred, possibly by Claude," Emre reported respectfully.

"Mr. Asher, could you help me find Claude?" Alfonso asked urgently. "I can't relax until I see my daughter and wife again. "My daughter recently underwent surgery."

"Shut up!" Asher yelled, frowning. "All day long, I've been putting up with your insignificant problems."

He was visibly agitated.

Despite his anxiety, Alfonso continued to plead, "I know I've wasted your time and manpower, but my wife and daughter are missing, and I'm really..."

Not interested in hearing his justifications, Asher shot him a glance and said, "You're always entangled in these trivial matters; no wonder you can't achieve anything! Do you want me to track down Claude? Impossible!"

"Why?" Alfonso was taken aback.

"Don't you want to help me?" he wondered.

"Before you returned, I received word that Claude had died," Asher explained. "His strongholds had been destroyed. Your daughter's whereabouts are unknown, and she could be linked to this incident. We must dig deeper into this."

Alfonso was astounded. He had some understanding of Claude's identity. Feelings of despair filled his chest.

Who would have taken Roxanne away if such a powerful figure as Clause had died?

"I have kept my promise," Asher said icily. "When are you going to hold up yours?"

When Alfonso met Asher's icy stare, it sent shivers down his spine.

"I..." He swallowed and stated, "I will execute it soon."

Asher squinted at him suspiciously and demanded, "Tell me, exactly when and what plan will you use?"

Alfonso was well aware that if he did nothing, he would enrage Asher.

Thus, he decided swiftly and voiced his opinion.

"We have to kidnap Neera by any means necessary. We can ruin her in every way imaginable! So, it's safe to assume she won't be able to control the ANXIN Group. However, I will need more manpower from you to accomplish this."

Asher chuckled indifferently while listening.

"You're looking all over the world for your younger daughter, but you're so cruel to your older daughter."

He didn't care as long as it served his purpose. He agreed quickly, "All right, tell Emre how many people you'll need. He'll take care of it."

This bolstered Alfonso's self-assurance.

He forgot about his problems and was overcome with joy when he considered he could get his hands on the ANXIN Group.
