When I Was a Wallflower (Leo and Amelie) novel Chapter 168

Chapter 168

“Are there any updates?” Amelie asked anxiously after getting into the car.

“I’m not sure yet.” Samuel frowned.

The car was moving forward, but Amelie didn’t know where it was heading. With a heavy heart, she fastened her seatbelt quietly and didn’t ask where they were headed.

When Samuel turned around, he noticed that her lips were pursed and she seemed to look very worried. “They managed to track Bria, so she should still be in the city. We will be able to find her easily as long as she hasn’t left,” he comforted her.

Hearing that, Amelie nodded quietly. She knew that he was trying to make her feel better. However, she felt helpless from not knowing the person’s motive, and she didn’t know whether they would hurt Bria or not. Praying to God seemed to be the only thing to do right now as there was nothing else she could do. The helplessness that she currently experienced wasn’t even comparable to the desperate moments she had experienced in the Alston Family.

After a while, she managed to pull herself together and asked, “Where exactly did they find traces of her?”

Before Samuel could answer her, the car came to a halt. “Here,” he answered while pointing his

finger.

“Here?” Amelie looked toward the direction where he pointed. She thought it would be a slum and was surprised to see luxury buildings right in front of her.

“Urban Garden?” The name seemed rather common, but it was a place where the richest gathered. Moreover, it was situated in the city center. Clouson City was a first-tier city and highly populated, but the land was scarce to a point where prices became sky-high.

Meanwhile, Urban Garden was situated right in the middle of the city, and it consisted of stunning multi-story mansions. Each mansion was separated by roads and large patches of gardens. It was as luxurious as it could get.

“Are you sure this is the place?” she asked doubtfully. Although they weren’t sure why Bria had been taken away, anyone in their right mind wouldn’t have chosen to hide somewhere like that. Amelie couldn’t help but look over at Samuel. He frowned, seemingly having the same thoughts as her..

“Let’s go over there and take a look,” he finally said after meeting her gaze. With that, both of them followed behind Samuel’s men and were brought to the main entrance of the Urban Garden.

Just then, someone came out hurriedly and brought them some good news, “We have

“Are you sure?” Amelie repeated after him when she heard the good news, and her eyes welled up

in tears.

“Quick, lead us there!” Amelie suddenly felt more energetic and rushed over delightedly. She wished that she could see Bria the next second.

On the other hand, Samuel and his man seemed cautious. “Be careful and make sure that you don’t alarm the person inside to ensure Bria’s safety.” Both of them reminded her simultaneously as they followed behind her.

“Okay!” Soon, the three of them stood below Unit 22. A few men dressed in black suits stood there with solemn expressions as well. All of them bowed at Samuel respectfully upon seeing him. The leader of the pack pointed upward, held up five fingers, and pointed to the left. Amelie was able to understand their sign language.

Although she was anxious, she knew that Bria’s safety was the top priority. With that in mind, she walked to the back of the group and stayed there. Samuel followed along as they entered the lift. It only took the lift a few seconds to arrive at the unit, but to Amelie, it felt like a century had passed. Her heart was pounding as fear and anticipation surged within her. She tried to keep herself together by biting her lips.

Finally, they got to the front of the unit where Bria was confined. She dared not make a noise and was so nervous that it almost felt like her heart had stopped pumping when she stood in front of the door. One of Samuel’s men looked through the peephole several times and turned back, looking at Samuel as he waited for the man’s instructions.

Seeing that, Samuel pursed his lips and nodded. The next moment, the man kicked the door

open.

“Do not move! Get down!” Samuel’s men yelled after getting in. Amelie started getting nervous as
