Chapter 468 Jared Was Kidnapped

The lady comforted her.

Anastasia, however, remained terrified. It was far too sudden. In just a blink of an eye, Jared had

vanished.

She turned around and saw that David and his men were no longer around. What happened? They’ve

been following me all along!

Anxiously, she took her phone out and called Elliot.

“Hello?”

“Elliot, have David and his men returned yet? Jared has gone missing! He vanished before my eyes!”

Anastasia was about to lose it and her voice was trembling nervously.

“Don’t panic, Anastasia. I’ll contact David now, alright?” Elliot tried to console her. “You look around first

while I give him a call.”

After ending the call, Anastasia went to the broadcasting area with the staff. She called Jared’s name

several times over the broadcast and asked him to approach the staff and return to her once he heard

the broadcast.

At the same time, all staff were reminded to keep an eye out for any child dressed similarly to Jared.

While the broadcaster was still speaking, Anastasia’s phone rang. She picked it up right away when

she saw it was Elliot who called. “Hello?”

“Something must have happened to Jared, Anastasia. I can’t contact David and his men at all. Jared

might have been kidnapped. I’m rushing to the museum now.”

“What?!” Hearing that, Anastasia felt as though all her energy was drained and she almost dropped her

phone to the floor. A staff member nearby immediately held her when he saw that. “Miss, are you

okay?”

With reddened eyes, she begged the staff, “My son has been abducted! Please show me the

surveillance video!”

In the meantime, Elliot was on his way to the museum as well. When his car came to a stop in front of a

traffic light, he could hear his phone ring, and he answered it immediately as he assumed that the caller

was Anastasia. “Hello?”

“Anastasia’s son is in our hands, Elliot Presgrave. Don’t you dare inform the police! Follow our

instructions or otherwise, Anastasia will never get to see her son again.” It was a male voice, clearly

generated by a voice-changing device.

Elliot’s car immediately braked, almost colliding with the car behind him. After a brief pause, he calmly

responded, “What exactly do you want me to do? I can give you whatever you want as long as you

don’t harm the child.”

Elliot knew fully well that this kidnapper, or the group of them, kidnapped Jared all because of him.

At the same time, a man approached his window and violently knocked on it. Elliot’s earlier brake

almost caused this man to collide with him.

After a few knocks, the man was met with Elliot’s terrifying cold stare. That startled him, and he quickly

took a few steps back and walked away after spewing some vulgarities.

Elliot had a gloomy yet ruthless expression as he heard the conditions on the other end of the phone

call.

“First and foremost, Elliot Presgrave, you tell Anastasia not to notify the police. We can’t guarantee this

child’s safety if we are being pursued by the police. We’ll contact you after that.”

And the person hung up the call right after he finished his words.

Elliot immediately dialed Anastasia’s number. At the same time, she was watching the surveillance

footage in the security room, where she witnessed Jared being carried away in a matter of seconds.

The two men who had previously blocked her vision were the kidnapper’s accomplices. She also saw

how David and his men passed out before being carried away.

Such a large-scale kidnapping plot stunned the security guards as well. Anastasia, who was on the

verge of collapsing, received a phone call at this precise moment. “Jared has indeed been kidnapped.”

“Calm down, Anastasia. I’ve just received a phone call from the kidnapper. They are after me, not

Jared. Don’t call the police first. I’ll bring Jared back safely.” Elliot’s calm voice resonated from the

phone.

Anastasia’s mind went blank for a few seconds before she asked, “What do they want from you?”

“I’ve already instructed Rey to get you; follow him first. Don’t worry. I’ll do everything I can to protect

Jared.”

Anastasia felt her heart tighten when she heard Elliot’s words. This group of kidnappers clearly had this

incident well-planned. If Elliot went straight to them to save Jared, would Elliot be able to survive?
