Lost Heiress of the Belfort Brothers의 모든 챕터: 챕터 71 - 챕터 80

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

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

Yvonne's POV"Police! Hands where I can see them!""You mother fucker!" One of the person that marched in, I suppose, blurted out angrily, pushing Adrian to the floor and it was at that moment that at least, I caught some breath because if I had been in that way he was trying to strangle me, in the next 60 seconds, I must have dropped dead. Air rushed into my lungs. I coughed violently in a way my chest was heaving. Everything hurt but I was breathing and it felt renewed that I was still alive.I couldn't stop coughing, trying even more hard to regain my breath and then one of them rushed to my side and then after a little while of struggling with my breath which was gradually coming back, I observed and it came to my realization that it was Liam and the Belfort brothers. Liam! He came. He actually came."Yvonne!! Yvonne! Are you okay?" Liam asked hurriedly, as he must have seen how worn out I was already looking.I wanted to answer but my throat felt like it wasn't even mine with t

Jack's POVNow I was already feeling more guilty than any of us because somehow I felt like the question she asked about why we wanted Tricia so badly as our sister and every other thing Yvonne just said was directed to me. As I knew that I was the one who hurt her the most when I had thought it was actually Tricia who was our sister...Like I made a fuss of everything like she never belonged to our world or even came close. The look in her eyes when she asked that question haunted me. I'd seen pain before, but this was different. This was a pain that I'd caused."It's not you, sis. It was us and we are taking the blames. Please forgive us, we need you in our lives and we could prove that to you."My voice cracked on the last word. I hated how desperate I sounded but I didn't care anymore. Pride didn't matter when you'd almost lost your sister."We are your brothers and we are supposed to protect you. But we feel foolish that you were taken under our watch because of our negligence."

Yvonne's POV"Wow," Liam breathed."Yeah," I agreed. "Wow.""I've wanted to do that for so long.""Really?" I couldn't keep the surprise out of my voice. And honestly, I hope this is the beginning of a beautiful love story for us because I could bet that Liam is such a good friend who has always stood up for me even when I least expected it."Really. Since that day at the gymnasium when you stood up to Tricia. You were so brave and fierce and I just thought, 'that's the girl I want.'"My cheeks heated. "You never said anything."I thought back to that day. I'd been so angry, so done with Tricia's games. I never thought anyone would see that as attractive."I didn't think you saw me that way. And I never thought that I would end up being your friend either.""You are my friend," I said. "But you're also... more.""More," he repeated, a smile spreading across his face. "I like the sound of that.""Me too."He leaned his forehead against mine. "We're going to get through this, you know.
