All Chapters of Contract With Alpha Theodore: Chapter 191 - Chapter 200

Third Person's POV"I'm just feeling a bit nauseous," Melinda said, her face pale."It'll pass in a moment.""Oh dear... could it be... could you be pregnant?" Barbara said loudly, feigning innocence.Vanya noticed Cliff's hand, which was about to serve her some food, froze mid-motion."Pregnant?" Melinda's face lit up with uncontainable joy at the suggestion—could she really be pregnant?At that moment, Genevieve, who had just arrived at the Royal Restaurant, overheard the remark.She glanced at Melinda. Though she didn't recognize her, she knew Cliff had once been very fond of her.If Melinda was indeed pregnant, Genevieve's chances with Cliff would vanish.Vanya caught sight of Genevieve waiting outside.Genevieve was dressed elegantly in a simple white dress, younger than Melinda, and her innocent demeanor was even more appealing than Melinda's had been.As Genevieve entered, Melinda noticed her t

Third Person's POVVanya listened in.There was only one route back from the Royal Restaurant. If Genevieve had returned, she would have crossed paths with Elliot's car. It seemed the situation was genuinely serious.Did Melinda harm Genevieve?She frowned—Melinda wouldn't act so hastily, not after just meeting her.Cliff ended the call and said to Vanya, "Go take a shower. Don't worry about the rest."Before he finished speaking, his phone received a text, "To save Miss Watkins, prepare ten million in cash first! No police involvement!"Then, the kidnappers sent a location.Vanya glanced at the text and calmly said to Cliff, "You're going personally, aren't you?"She knew Genevieve's disappearance wouldn't be taken lightly by Veronica—she wouldn't just dispatch people to search.Seeing Cliff's silence, she knew he understood too—this was his responsibility."I'm coming with you," Vanya sa

Third Person's POV"Confidence waning?" Vanya said coolly. "I warned you before, but you wouldn't listen."She had told him long ago that their relationship was impossible and that nothing he did would move her.Cliff had persistently gambled his entire fortune on this, refusing to heed her warnings."Yes, my confidence is shaken," Cliff replied with a rare bitter smile. "I've never doubted myself before, but with you, I truly have no certainty."Vanya averted her gaze. "If you fear losing the Todd family, I'm giving you a chance to back out of the bet.""It's not fear of losing that plagues me—it's the fear of losing you," Cliff said intently. "I know that backing out means no chance at all. So I won't give up.""Then you're foolish. Don't regret it when you've lost everything," Vanya warned, lying down on the bed.The room fell silent. Vanya heard Cliff mutter, "I don't regret it."Her eyes remained open—sh

Third Person's POVVeronica frowned and asked, "Cliff, don't you have a meeting at the company? Why are you back so early today?""Where's Vanya?" Cliff inquired sharply.Genevieve's expression was visibly strained.Unaware of the situation, Veronica remarked, "Vanya's whereabouts are your responsibility. Who knows which man she's off seeing now?""Someone used my phone to message Vanya, and now I can't reach her. I need to know when she left the house!" Cliff declared.Veronica instantly grasped the gravity of the situation.In their circles, kidnappings were not uncommon.Should a family member be abducted, the ransom demands were usually exorbitant."Have Elliot check the security footage immediately and call the police!" she ordered.This was no trivial matter.Genevieve's staged kidnapping was one thing, but Vanya was different.Regardless of her relationship with Cliff, she was Cliff's Luna.

Third Person's POVCliff, alongside the Los Angeles security forces, tracked the kidnappers to the docks.A single ship was anchored there. Elliot remarked, "Alpha Cliff, these kidnappers likely plan to flee with the ransom.""We can't let them escape!"Cliff said, his gaze locked on the vessel. "Vanya is still on board. Hand over the money and demand they release her immediately!""But Alpha Cliff, that's five million dollars!"Elliot protested, his face pale. "The Todd family has numerous projects requiring funding. Losing this money could halt many initiatives, leading to immeasurable losses.""Enough chatter! Do as I say!" Cliff barked."Alpha Cliff..." Elliot hesitated."Nothing matters more than Vanya's life! Is that clear?" Cliff's voice brooked no dissent.Elliot finally relented. "Yes, Alpha Cliff."Elliot ordered the cash to be unloaded from the vehicle.The kidnappers, knives pressed against Vanya's neck, emerged on deck and shouted, "Bring the money aboard! No tricks, or w
