Chapter 49 Cecilia's Trail Found

• “Explain in more detail, Uncle!” Evan growled, his voice thick with restrained fury. His eyes bored in sharply, face flushed crimson, fists clenched tight.
• Charles clenched his jaw. “Yesterday afternoon, Cecilia and I went to her apartment to grab her things, but she suddenly left without a word while I was on the phone with Martin.” He paused briefly to steady his emotions before continuing. “Then she went to a hotel, checked into a room there. But she vanished from there. Hotel CCTV shows Bertha showing up, carrying an unconscious Cecilia with the help of two strange men. They took her away in a black van. Martin’s tracking the license plate to follow her trail.”​
• The man explained quickly and thoroughly. It was deep into the night now, edging toward dawn. Charles was deeply worried about Cecilia’s condition—especially knowing Bertha was behind her kidnapping. That woman had been recklessly ruthless before, trying to harm Cecilia. What was she capable of now? Charles felt powerless to act fast.
