Shane silently lowered his gaze.
Locking down the city could work, provided Sean isn't behind this. If he truly masterminded Natalie's kidnapping, he
would have designed an escape plan impervious even to lockdowns.
A lockdown would be too late if Natalie had been whisked away by helicopter or speedboat.
He could only pray that the police could luck out during their inspections of all air and sea ports in the country.
Joyce was at a loss for what to do next in the face of Shane's moody silence.
Suddenly, her eyes lit up as though she remembered something. She suggested, “Mr. Shane, why don't you ask
Connor to track Nat's location? Didn't Connor plant a GPS tracker on her? He might be able to discover Nat's
whereabouts!”
Clenching his fists, Shane croaked hoarsely, “I've already called Mrs. Wilson about this. Connor is trying his best, but
we have no news of her whereabouts.”
Joyce furrowed her brows in concern and repeated, “No news?”
Does this mean Connor can't track Nat's location? Could her kidnappers be using a signal jammer?
The shrill ringing of Shane's phone snapped her out of her thoughts.

Shane whipped out his phone and saw that Connor was calling.
A relieved smile came to Joyce's face as she urged, “It's Connor! Answer the call, Mr. Shane! He might've tracked
Nat down!”
Shane immediately accepted his son's call.
Connor cut straight to the point. “Daddy, I've found Mommy's location.”
Shane stood up and demanded, “Where is she?”
His son paused before replying, “In a river.”
“What?” Joyce overheard Connor's words and wailed, “A river? Did they toss Nat in the river?”
Oh dear lord, it's been hours since her disappearance. She could've drowned!
Shane evidently shared her fears, his grip visibly tightening on the phone. He exuded a murderous aura that sent
chills down everyone's backs.
Joyce and the others anticipated Shane's dismay and turbulent emotions at that news.
“Where?” Shane choked out.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmConnor realized then that Shane misunderstood his words. He hastily explained, “The location is Panorama River,
not far from the stadium. Likely, only Mommy's phone and jewelry are there. The GPS tracker I gave Mommy can
detect and monitor her body temperature. I've checked the temperature logs, and Mommy's temperature hasn't
changed. I'm sure only her belongings are in the river.”
Shane's eyes narrowed as he asked, “Really?”
“Yes. I'm quite sure of it.” Connor even nodded for good measure.
Joyce patted her chest, utterly relieved. She exclaimed, “That's great! It means Nat is still alive. Connor, why didn't
you say all this clearer? You almost scared your daddy and me to death. We really thought someone tossed your
mommy in the river.”
“Sorry, Daddy. I didn't mean to scare all of you,” came Connor's apology.
Connor had been so eager to share his news that he had blurted his information without a second thought about its
delivery.
Shane frowned slightly and uttered, “It's fine, Connor. I want you to hack into the security footage near Panorama
River and identify the people who took your mommy away.”
His son agreed eagerly, “Okay!”
After ending the call, Shane turned to the three ladies and said, “Please get in touch with a salvage crew and
search the river for Nat's belongings.”
