Chapter 2604

“Where’s the person?” asked the leader.

“In the hall. Her limbs are bound while her mouth is taped shut. There’s also a hood covering her

head.” Imogen stood up. “Don’t worry. Now that she’s in your hands, you’ll get the money soon.” Then,

as she walked to the side, she spoke to one of the men. “Take me outside. I’ll pretend that I’ve

escaped.” Although the leader was somewhat startled, the prospect of a handsome reward convinced

him to proceed boldly with the plan.

Since they had already kidnapped their intended target, he signaled to his subordinate, who then

escorted Imogen outside. As soon as she stepped out, she exclaimed, “Shirley? Shirley! Are you

okay?” “Ugh!” At this moment, Shirley couldn’t see anything with her face covered and mouth taped

shut. When she heard Imogen’s voice, she struggled to respond.

“Let her go. Let her go!” Imogen exclaimed. Right after she said those words, she was attacked, and

the sound of punches landing on someone reverberated in the air. Soon, there was a sound of people

fighting, followed by a shattering window.

Then, her voice came through. “Wait for me, Shirley. I’ll look for help to rescue you.” Shirley heard the

sound of the broken window and Imogen’s panicked escape.

Shortly after, she also heard several men speaking.

“Sh*t. She escaped. How can you guys be so careless? Hurry, you idiots. Don’t let these two women

escape!” Imogen hailed a passing cab and headed toward the Royal Hotel. She had deliberately

allowed the kidnappers to maim her hand so that she could explain to Zacharias that she had lost her

ability to save Shirley, which was why she had to return for assistance.

After witnessing Imogen’s successful escape, Shirley breathed a sigh of relief.

However, she had seen and experienced the skills of those men earlier, and it was evident that they

were not ordinary thugs. The fact that Imogen could break free and escape was a surprise to Shirley,

but thankfully, Imogen was able to flee.

“Bring her inside for me,” a rough male voice instructed. Then, he added, “Until we receive the money,

make sure that she doesn’t escape.” Shirley was perplexed as to why she was their target. When she

overheard their conversation, she finally understood. Their intention was to use her to extort money, but

from who? Was it Zacharias?

She wasn’t surprised as they had both attended the banquet together. If someone had taken photos

during the event, it could have created the illusion that she was Zacharias’ woman. Kidnapping her

would then be a means of demanding money from Zacharias.

Abominable!

Her limbs were bound, and her mouth was taped shut with a hood covering her head, so she could only

rely on her sense of hearing to assess her surroundings.

Meanwhile, the vehicle that Imogen was in arrived at the hotel. She rushed inside, located her team

members, and instructed them to inform Zacharias about the ongoing situation immediately.

“Imogen, your hand…” A team member expressed concern about Imogen’s hand.

“It’s fine. It’s just broken. Once the bones are set, it’ll be okay. It’s Shirley… She… She was kidnapped

by those *ssholes. Her life is in danger now.” Imogen gasped as she feigned a sense of unbearable

pain.

The teammate immediately rang Roy. “Hello, Captain Barlowe. Miss Lloyd was kidnapped by gangsters

fifteen minutes ago. They’re demanding money from Mr. Flintstone.” “What?!” Roy was shocked to hear

the news, never once expecting that gangsters would dare to target Mr. Zacharias.

At that moment, Zacharias was in a meeting, and the bodyguards couldn’t enter.

Since it was a crucial matter and Roy couldn’t afford any delay, he immediately gave Freddie, who was

inside the room seated with Zacharias, a ring.

Freddie discreetly answered the call. “Hello?” “Mr. Hurst, please inform Mr. Flintstone immediately that

Miss Lloyd has been kidnapped. Her life’s in danger, and we need to rescue her.” Freddie’s mind

exploded as he knew how significant Shirley was to Zacharias, so he switched off his phone and

stepped toward Zacharias. Then, he lowered himself and urgently whispered, “Mr. Zacharias, Miss

Lloyd has been kidnapped.”
