Divorced but Delighted -
Chapter 402 A Gift
Draven woke up two hours later.
Draven fell into his own fantasy. Under the guidance of Doctor Ann, he finally calmed down and entered a beautiful dream.
In the dream, there was still no Aleah, and Cierra was still the beloved daughter of the Boyle family. She followed him around with a bright smile every day. Draven was happy that she was looking at him like that.
So it was natural that he didn't want to wake up from his beautiful dream.
If it weren't for Ryan's emergency, Draven would probably be able to sleep for a long time.
Before Draven could get a good look at Cierra, his sleep was interrupted. He pressed between his eyebrows and asked impatiently, "What's the matter?"
Ryan didn't care about anything else and said in an anxious tone, "Ryan said that Cici was missing and blamed it on you. What do you think is going on? He threw all the dirty things at you, didn't he? I'm in a hurry too. She disappeared right under their noses and I haven't scolded him yet!"
"What did you say?"
Only then did Draven come to his senses and widen his eyes in shock.
Draven no longer cared about the impatience of waking up from his dream. He took the suit by the bed and put it on.
Ryan quickly followed. "Where are you going?"
"Where else can we go? Find her!"
Draven lost his balance and stumbled out of the consulting room.
Ryan was equally anxious. He thought that he had some sense left and chased after Draven. "But where are you going to replace her? You have to replace someone to investigate first. What's the use of you going by yourself?"
Draven put on his suit and calmed down. Hearing this, he glanced at Ryan and said in a cold voice, "Now that we're in New York, who do you think will be stupid enough to take Cierra away?" Ryan suddenly came to a realization. "You mean, that person of the Trevino family..."
Although the Barton family didn't publicize the return of my daughter widely, they didn't deliberately hide it anymore. Now that the Barton family and the Navarro family were connected by marriage, some people would more or less know about it, so that it wouldn't be embarrassing when they tried to build a relationship.
The Navarro family wanted to spread the news that the Barton family had arrived in New York. Since he could replace out more about Cierra from others, they could naturally do the same.
Now that the Boyle family was no longer powerful, they would naturally not provoke the Barton family. Who else would do such a thing except for that person?
Except for Draven, the Barton family was equally anxious.
Cierra had only gone to the L'Opera Restaurant for a meal and then went to the bathroom. Then she was gone.
The surveillance footage showed that they had deliberately let them know that Cierra had been taken away. However, when they reached a fork in the road, the footage behind them disappeared. They were deliberately trying to provoke him.
When Cierra woke up, her vision was blurred. It took him a long time to adjust her eyes to the darkness in the room.
She had been...
Her hands were tied to the chair, and her mouth was taped. It was pitch-black as far as the eye could see. There was not even a window on the wall. Cierra turned her head to look behind her. She could only vaguely hear the sound of water dripping. It was slow and without rhythm, like a messy song before being tortured.
Cierra didn't know how long she had waited. In fact, she was a little scared. This kind of environment was almost the same as the kidnapping three years ago. The similar environment
reminded her of the situation at that time.
But at this moment, Cierra could only force herself to remain calm, and her mind was racing. Who kidnapped her here? How should she negotiate with the other party later?
While Cierra was thinking, a hoarse voice came from behind her.
Cierra suddenly opened her eyes.
It should be dark outside, and the people who came in did not turn on the lights. Except for the flash of light when the iron door hit the wall in front of her, there was no change in the room. In the darkness, her hearing also became sharp.
As the sound of footsteps slowly approached, Cierra's entire body was like an infant beast, her back tightly pressed against the ice-cold chair.
"Miss Barton, you look... very scared?"
His footsteps stopped beside Cierra, and his breath blew into her ear like a snake's tongue, causing her frightened.
Cierra gritted her teeth in pain and tried her best not to make a sound.
The next second, the man's hand fell on her face and touched the end of the tape. "Ah, I almost
forgot. Miss Barton, I'm really sorry for making you suffer."
As he spoke, he did not apologize at all. He tore off the tape casually and even tore off a strand of her hair.
Cierra frowned in pain, but from the experience of the last kidnapping, she could not show weakness in front of the kidnappers. Cierra remembered that last time, the more she cried, the more the group of people cut her as if they had seen blood.
So at this moment, even if she was afraid, she tried her best to remain calm.
After the pain on her face eased a little, she looked up and tried to replace the person who had kidnapped
in the dark. "Excuse me... why did you kidnap me, Mr. Trevino? I don't think there's any grudge between us, right?"
Even though she deliberately kept calm, he could still hear the light war in her voice.
Her trembling voice echoed in the air. It was not until the voice completely disappeared that the man chuckled.
"You call me Mr. Trevino?"
Patrick smiled, walked up to Cierra, and raised her chin with his fingers.
Patrick tilted his head and his figure looked particularly terrifying in the dim light. "Do you know who I am?"
Cierra couldn't help trembling.
It was not cold in the room. Although it was autumn, she was wearing a lot of clothes.
She was scared.
Her tied-up hands moved and her fingertips curled up. "I accidentally heard about you when I was in the Trevino family. I guessed." Of course, it was a lie.
When she was in the hospital, she had just heard from Draven that he had an elder brother in the world.
Later, she curiously asked the elders of her family about some secrets of the Trevino family.
According to Mr. Chester, the Trevino family in New York was just a branch of the Trevino family in
Get Bonus
Washington D.C.. Because Ernest had done something wrong back then, he had been driven out of the main family.
Her grandfather worked hard and developed his own business in New York. However, the
well-known families in Washington DC. were in decline and had no descendent because of the plane
accident. Therefore, when Draven and his brother were born, the main family chose one of the
strong children and took him away.
The identical twins began to compete for nutrients in their mother's womb. When they were born, they could tell who was the weaker one. Then, Draven was raised by Ernest Trevino and Mrs. Trevino. Probably because they were unwilling to accept the fact that their children had been taken. away, they were particularly harsh on Draven.
However, these were all gossip that Cierra had heard from others. As for the specifics, perhaps only
Mrs. Trevino who had passed away knew about it.
Cierra only knew that the child who had been taken away had become a lunatic and had tied her up here for no reason. She didn't know what he was going to do.
As if sensing Cierra's fear, Patrick let go of his hand and took a step back to stay away from her.
"Miss Barton, you don't have to be so nervous. I just can't think of a suitable way to invite you out, so I can only do this. I invited you here just to give you a small gift."
