Liam's POV

"We need to talk to the officers now," Jack suggested the moment Madame Celeste was gone.

"Agreed," Bobby said. "But we also need to think. Who would do this? Who benefits from kidnapping Yvonne?"

The question hung in the air for a while. 'Who would have thought of this evil plot in the first place.'

My mind was already running through possibilities. Tricia? Adrian? Someone else entirely that I am not even aware of? Let's say, an enemy to the Duval empire?

I clenched my fists. Whoever it was, they'd made a mistake. A big one for real.

"Let's get the facts first," Gentle said. "Then we can figure out the rest."

"To the best of my knowledge, this kidnapping wasn't random. With the look of things, it couldn't be. Someone wanted Yvonne specifically. Someone who knew where she'd be and when. I smell something fishy. Don't you think that Tricia is behind this as she wasn't around the moment we got to know she was all fake. Which was almost the time Liam came and told us that he's

  • Lost Heiress of the Belfort Brothers   Chapter 75- At the last minute…

    Yvonne's POVAt this point, with the level of torture that I am already facing here from Adrian, I think his plan has been to torture me to death as he kept hitting me real hard with his hand on my face while I couldn't help but pant hopelessly in exhaustion and fear. My head was spinning and every part of my body hurt at this point. My cheeks burned where his hand had connected, over and over. And I could taste blood in my mouth.I have been under his hostage for hours. But it already felt like forever, considering the kind of pain I could feel as a result of the torture I received from him.To the point that I was forced to at least say one thing that has been on my mind. "Do I really deserve this from you, Adrian." I managed to say because honestly I was already losing every bit of strength I have in me.My voice came out broken, barely above a whisper. But I needed to know what had I done to make him hate me so much?"You did this to yourself, you stupid bitch." He went on and hi

  • Lost Heiress of the Belfort Brothers   Chapter 73 - Her number is switched off?

    Liam's POVOn driving into the car parking space of the police station, I hurriedly pulled up and quickly rushed to the main hall where I could make a report. My chest felt tight and I could feel the rush of adrenaline all over me.Gentle was right behind me, his footsteps were quick and urgent just like mine too. Neither of us had said much during the drive here right after the call we dropped off with Bobby and Jack. What was there to say? Yvonne wasn't picking up her calls, wasn't responding to messages, and that wasn't like her at all.On entering, my gaze was quick to catch Madame Celeste and even though she was in a black shade like one who was mourning a dear one, I recognized her instantly.The sight of her made my stomach drop. She looked broken as her shoulders were slumped, her eyes red and swollen. Whatever brought her here wasn't good."Madame Celeste Duval." I called out, knowing fully well that she must have been here for the same thing that brought us here too.She tur

  • Lost Heiress of the Belfort Brothers   Chapter 72 - Do everything that lies in your power to find her.

    Madame Celeste's POV“I want to make a report of a missing girl.” I quickly burst out, referring to no one particularly though as at the moment I hurriedly got to the police station when the driver drove me here. I had wanted him to go along but in the long run, I had asked him to come get me so that we would go together because being at home wasn't helping the kind of thoughts going through my mind. My hands wouldn't stop trembling. I clasped them together, trying to steady myself, but it didn't help. "Good day, madame. You said that you want to make a report of a missing girl?" One of the officers questioned me as his voice sounded far away, like I was underwater."Yes, officer of the law." I replied hastily, with my lips like they were still shaking as the result of the shock I still felt."Ok, noted. Can you briefly explain what happened?" The officer asked me.I swallowed hard. Where do I even start? My throat felt tight, like the words were stuck somewhere between my chest and

  • Lost Heiress of the Belfort Brothers   Chapter 71 — Madame Celeste isn’t at home!

    Liam’s POVNot long after we agreed on how we were going to split, everything started moving fast—too fast for my heart to keep up with properly.Gentle and I headed toward the police station in my car, while Jack and Bobby took one of the Belfort cars straight to Madame Celeste Duval’s house. All hands had to be on deck. No pride, no grudges and no delays. It was just movement.I gripped the steering wheel tighter than I realized.The city lights blurred past us, but my mind wasn’t on the road. It kept drifting against my will back to Yvonne.The last time I’d seen her, she was smiling, looking all relaxed, teasing me about how seriously I took dessert menus. Nothing dramatic and there was nothing that looked like a goodbye. Just normal, quiet happiness.That was what scared me the most.Because nothing about this felt normal.I couldn't help but think about the moment my phone buzzed late in the afternoon and I glanced at the screen when I had seen it. It was her last message to me

  • Lost Heiress of the Belfort Brothers   Chapter 70 — We need to meet Madame Celeste Duval.

    Gentle's POVIn no time, Liam just walked in straight through the door to where we were because, actually the door wasn't locked.He looked like a man who'd been running as I could feel that from his quick breath which was like he almost forgot to breathe properly, then his jacket half-on, and his eyes looking like it didn't know where to land first. For a second, the house felt too small for all the worry packed into him, coupled with the one that was ongoing in here before he got here.“Where is she?” That was the question which Liam asked us, and honestly that took me particularly unaware. Because of course, she wasn't referring to Tricia. Why would he in the first place? And so, if he was actually referring to Yvonne, I think he should be in a better position to know where exactly Yvonne is.Bobby shot a look at me like he expected me to know something I didn't. My mouth went dry and I could tell that all the leads I'd been chasing—little threads that never quite tied up just sudd
