Chapter 123

Author: Lightmoon
Those suspected kidnappers were dangerously close now.

Marisol didn't dare make a call and risk drawing attention, so she quickly pulled out her phone, switched it to silent, and sent rapid messages to Alinta, Julius, and Raymond Barnes, the bed and breakfast owner. She even included her live location, praying that someone would check their phone early and call the cops in time.

But that still wasn't safe enough. Next, she immediately switched to the text message interface, quickly typed out her current location and the situation, added the local area code at the end, and sent an emergency text to 911.

In the past, while collecting design materials, she had worked as a journalist and ventured into some remote mountainous and forested areas to interview and investigate local cultural traditions, encountering dangerous criminals more than once, so she had quite a bit of experience.

No matter who saw the message first, it'd still be a shot at survival. After that, she'd just have to tru

  • Turning Heads After Divorce   Chapter 512

    On the dining room table sat a large pot filled to the brim with oxtails. Marisol, wearing a cozy knitted sweater dress with her dark hair casually pinned up, held a bowl of oxtail soup. She frowned with every sip, yet her face still showed satisfaction.Julius couldn't help thinking, "Looks like Marisol's craving kicked in again. Even with a sore throat that won't let her eat solid food, she still has to have her soup. She's so adorable!" His blank expression softened at that thought, and he unconsciously took a step forward."Hey, you're back?" Marisol spotted him and spoke before wincing in pain. Then, she quickly shut her mouth with a groan. She grabbed her phone and typed a line into her smart home speaker.A loud robotic voice echoed through the living room. "Why are you back so late? Where have you been? I made some oxtail soup. Come dig in."The voice was so loud that it could be heard clearly from the neighboring dining room. Marisol looked quite pleased as she typed ano

    "Julius." Mitchell's expression darkened."He didn't look for you because in the past, the Muller family hid your information. He had no idea his only child was out there."It was also the Muller family who used despicable methods to separate him and your mother, isolating you from her. They caused your family of three to be apart all these years."It's been 20 years, Julius. Don't you want to reunite with your parents, return to your family, and never be separated again?"That's where you truly belong!""No!" Julius suddenly roared, slamming the tablet on the table. His chest was heaving as his breathing became increasingly unsteady.After finally calming down, he spoke up. "This is my home. I grew up here. I..."He wanted to continue, but confusion clouded his eyes. Was this really his home?Mitchell smiled."Home? The place that sent you away as a child and has barely allowed you to set foot there since? The place that's constantly guarding against you and restricting you?

    Though still angry inside, Julius hadn't forgotten why he'd come. Taking a deep breath, he sat down, ignored the drink, and picked up the tablet to have a look.It contained the information he'd requested. The person Marisol had met yesterday, detailed conversations with Nick, including the confrontation with Sienna. Everything was crystal clear.Not bothering to mock Nick's foolish infatuation or feel angry about Sienna's extremism, Julius first felt extremely uneasy. He slowly looked up. His gaze was sharp as he stared at Mitchell. "Are you following and surveilling her?"What he'd wanted to know was who Marisol had met the day before, to figure out who might have hurt her. But this information was too detailed, including exact conversations. It went beyond simple investigation."Following?" Mitchell shook his head with a smile. "We don't do that sort of thing.""Then you've planted people around her?" Julius didn't believe him. His expression darkened as he waved the tablet. "H

    After arranging affairs for both companies, Marisol finally felt at ease. She changed into a comfortable knit dress she often wore at home and went to the villa's workshop to begin sketching designs for the wedding dress.Though the client wasn't in a rush, custom wedding dresses involved complex procedures and took considerable time. She couldn't afford to be careless, and she had high expectations for this particular commission.Meanwhile, Julius left the house but didn't go directly to find Mitchell. Instead, he first went to school, took care of various matters, then slipped out the back gate during the weekend crowd chaos and disappeared into a waiting car.Soon, the car entered an underground parking garage at a private club. Wearing a black baseball cap and black athletic wear, Julius jumped out of the car. He entered the elevator, went upstairs, and slipped into one of the private rooms.He frowned the moment he walked in. Though the room wasn't exactly filled with smoke an

    "Marisol, your condition..." Julius took a bite of his bacon and looked up to meet Marisol's resentful gaze, not knowing whether to laugh or cry."You eat, I'll just smell it." Marisol typed this line on her phone and silently held it up for Julius to see.She'd always loved eating, and after that ordeal of starving in the castle two years ago, she loved it even more. Though it was just missing one breakfast, her mood was still sour. She'd probably miss several more meals with her throat in this condition.Damn that Sienna! Couldn't all the lunatics just get out of her life!While she was stewing in resentment, Marisol's raised phone suddenly rang. Julius saw the caller ID first, and he paused mid-bite as his black pupils suddenly darkened.Mitchell Jensen?Marisol saw it too. After a couple of seconds, she remembered this was the blind date Emilia had arranged. Neither of them had been interested in each other romantically, but they'd ended up discussing a business collaboration

    The call ended. In the bedroom, Julius sat on the edge of the bed for a long time until his phone buzzed again, snapping him back to attention. He instinctively answered.It was the fast delivery he'd ordered. He left the room and walked softly past Marisol's bedroom. He then went downstairs, opened the door, and crossed the courtyard to the main gate. Waiting outside wasn't a delivery worker, but Zayne.In the quiet night, a few streetlights glowed along the road. The man stood at the gate holding the items while silently watching him. Julius didn't speak either.The villa's iron gate was half open, with the two of them on either side. They stared at each other wordlessly until Zayne finally broke the silence. He handed over the items, and his tone brooked no argument. "Leave tomorrow. Don't come back here.""Marisol agreed to it. Mind your own business." Taking the items, Julius slammed the gate shut, not bothering to waste words.Zayne wasn't surprised by this.If Julius wer
