Knowing the nurse couldn't do more, Naomi scanned the crowded hallway.

A man stepped forward from the group. "I'm type B, actually."

Naomi's face lit up. Before she could get a word out, he added, "You said 'anything.' You mean that?"

Something in his gaze made her skin crawl, oily and calculating.

I thought he was being kind. Should've known better.

She ignored him and turned to the rest of the crowd, hoping someone else would step up.

Every set of eyes she met slid away instead.

  • The Wife They Rejected Was a Billionaire Heiress   Chapter 216: A Brick Under the Quilt, a Slip at the Table

    If a woman refused to obey, she did not stay the property of one man for long. She was passed around the village until she broke.Boys might be kept. Girls were another matter entirely.None of the women wanted to become a shared toy or a baby-making machine. So they chose the smaller cage.“Better one man than the whole village,” someone said quietly.Naomi felt the words settle like ice in her stomach. Her determination to leave only hardened.She already knew these women would never stand with her. The best she could do was gather whatever information might later become a bargaining chip or a map.“Once you accepted it,” she asked carefully, “did any of you ever leave this place?”The room went still. Every gaze turned toward a soft-faced woman sitting in the corner. Before Naomi arrived, she had been the prettiest girl in the village.Aware of the attention, the woman spoke slowly. “I went to the nearest town once. A very long car ride. They kept me blindfolded the entire wa

  • The Wife They Rejected Was a Billionaire Heiress   Chapter 215: The Women Who Stopped Running

    Old Mr. Sinclair never finished the sentence. Rage stole the rest of his breath; his face went ashen and he collapsed before anyone could catch him.“Grandfather!”The three brothers cried out together.Marcus Sinclair’s decision was instant. “Nathan, stay with him. Derek and I will find her.”He gave Nathan no time to argue. He simply seized Derek’s arm and pulled him toward the door.Halfway there, a face flashed through Derek’s mind.Could it be her?He forced the emotion down. “Brother… I think Vivian might be involved. I’m going to her place.”Marcus didn’t argue. He only told Derek to be careful, then took men and raced after the trail of the black car.He had suspected Vivian for some time. Yet she had left the Sinclair family months ago. Where would she find the money to hire professionals to snatch Naomi? Still, every lead had to be chased. He could only hope Derek would learn something useful.Derek drove straight to the apartment building where Vivian now lived alone.Count

  • The Wife They Rejected Was a Billionaire Heiress   Chapter 214: No Trace of Naomi

    News reports about women taken and never found rose unbidden in Naomi’s mind. Some had lived with permanent injuries for decades. Others had simply vanished.This place was deep in a remote mountain area. Even if she managed to free herself, she had no idea which way led out. Unknown wild animals roamed the slopes. How was she supposed to leave?Despair crept in, quiet and cold.“No. I have to get out of here.”After assigning people to investigate and track every lead, Marcus Sinclair waited alone in the study for results.The moment he sat down, restless, tangled emotions forced him back to his feet. He could only pace the length of the room.He sorted through everyone connected to Naomi, searching for the key.“Could it really be Ethan Blackwood?”A second later he shook his head, rejecting the idea.If it had been Ethan, his goal would clearly have been reconciliation. In that case he would never have agreed to the custody paperwork transfer for Lily. And if it had been him, there

    The two younger men fell silent the moment their leader returned. They stepped forward with forced, awkward smiles, shooting Naomi Sinclair sharp warning glances that told her to keep her mouth shut.A jolt of dread went through her. All she could do was pin her remaining hope on the buyer.The leader grinned and shifted aside, revealing the middle-aged man waiting behind him.Despair flooded Naomi’s chest. Her pretty face went tight; she deliberately hardened her expression into something fierce and unapproachable.“Oh, still fighting?” The old man’s voice was thick with amusement. “I like a woman who needs conquering.” He licked his lips, eyes gleaming, and rubbed his dirty hands together as he advanced on her one slow step at a time.Naomi’s stomach turned. “Get away from me.”“Do you understand that what you’re doing is illegal? Let me go right now. My family is not someone you can afford to cross.”A sharp slap cracked through the mountain air, startling birds from the trees.Bur

    The trunk lid swung open. A flashlight beam stabbed straight into her eyes.Naomi couldn’t stand the sudden glare and squinted hard.The man in front looked surprised.“Wow. You wake up this fast after being drugged?”Naomi stared at the group coldly and asked without hesitation, “Who sent you?”“You don’t need to know that.” The man curled a sinister smile and dragged her out of the trunk.He hauled her into a run-down wooden cabin.“Stay here and wait. Once we find a suitable buyer, your life will be settled for good.”Finished speaking, the man turned with open satisfaction and prepared to leave.Just as he reached the door he stopped and ordered, “You two keep an eye on this bitch. If she gets away, I’ll sell you off like cargo.”“Yes, boss!”Naomi stayed calm and studied her surroundings.The cabin had almost no security. Anyone who wanted to break in could easily tear the place apart.The real problem wasn’t the cabin. It was the two men left to guard her.“Did Vivian send you t

    “Seb, you finally answered the phone!”Dean Mercer’s anxious voice crackled through the receiver. He was always loud, so even now Sebastian Cole felt no real urgency. “What’s the matter?”“You’re too calm!” Dean grumbled, then got straight to the point. “Leo Reyes just got an emergency call. It looks like Naomi’s in trouble. No one can reach her.”Sebastian’s hand shook. He nearly dropped the phone.His breathing stopped for a second. His mind went blank.Naomi… something happened?His breath came uneven, as if he couldn’t believe what he’d heard. “Who’s in trouble?”Dean’s own worry leaked through. “Naomi! Stop wasting time. Finding her comes first.”He hung up.Leo Reyes was nearly out of his mind with anxiety. If he hadn’t known his own people were no match for Sebastian’s in a fight, he would have already gone after her himself.Night settled quietly over the city.Under Naomi’s guidance, Lily Blackwood kept a very regular schedule.Marcus Sinclair had personally helped her finish
