Chapter 1292

"No, it's always been Mr. Elliot who took the initiative to contact them. They only had Mr. Elliot's mobile number.

When I used their phone to call him, it was switched off."

Gordon paused before he continued, ‘I sent a message to Mr. Elliot from their WhatsApp, tricked him into thinking we have Ms. Bella, but he didn't respond"

“From what you're saying, he probably guessed that Bowen and his team have fallen into our hands. He won't respond anymore."

“Wait, what?" Gordon was taken aback, "You mean, I blew our cover?"

He had hoped to lure Elliot out, but it seemed he had been discovered sooner than expected.

And here he was, thinking he had pulled it off without a hitch.

“The hospital called to inform that Bella left, follow her but don't let her come to harm,’ Bard instructed casually, “As for Elliot, I'll have someone else look into this matter."

"Yes, sir!"

Gordon took his leave immediately after receiving his orders.

Arabella took a taxi to Wach Town. The driver kindly warned her to be careful as it wasn't a safe place for a young woman.

Arabella thanked him for his caution, paid the fare, and got out of the car. The sky was dark. It looked like a storm was about to hit.

The town looked run-down and dilapidated, the narrow streets were messy and chaotic. Straggling pedestrians, who looked poor and weather-beaten, walked by. There were beggars too, unlike the typically pitiful ones, these beggars were aggressive, snatching things from the weak and elderly.

Arabella didn't want to stir up unnecessary trouble so she decided to mind her own business.
