Chapter 1204
Orion nodded and, while the adults were distracted, quickly tore open the gift box. Inside was just a piece of
paper with a single sentence written on it.
The little girl read it aloud, "If you want more presents, cto the front gate."
She pouted and huffed, "It's a trick! We shouldn't believe it. My mom says if someone wants to give a gift, they
should do it openly. Playing games like this means they're not sincere." But the other kids weren't so sure. They
teased Orion, saying he was too scared to go to the gate.
Frustrated, Orion turned to the girl. "Lily, do you want to cwith me? If we find anything, you can pick
whatever you want. It'll all be yours."
Before Lily Frank could answer, another kid chimed in with a laugh, "Girls are always scared. | bet Lily wouldn't
dare go with you."

Neither of them could back down from a dare, so Lily immediately grabbed Orion's hand and they headed
outside.
It was quiet by the front gate. Other than the parked cars of the guests, there was nothing unusual.
Orion was about to suggest they head back when Lily noticed a white car in the distance with a giant stuffed
animal next to it.
She pointed excitedly, "Look! That car must have the presents. See, there's a big stuffed animal."
Orion saw it too and, encouraged, led her towards the car.
They didn't make it all the way before two figures suddenly grabbed them. They struggled and tried to scream,
but their mouths were quickly covered, and soon they were unconscious.
Back inside, no one noticed they were missing until it was tto cut the cake. Nina couldn't find Orion, and
Lily's parents realized their daughter was gone too.
Panic set in as the parents began searching frantically. Thankfully, Nash thought to check the security cameras.
What he saw made his blood run cold. Both children were being forced into a car and driven away. Lily's mother
collapsed to the floor in tears, while her father, his face tense with worry, stepped aside to make a phone call.
Nash immediately mobilized his team to track down the white car. Before he could get any updates, Lily's father
returned, his expression strained but determined.
"I'm sorry for the trouble this has caused," he said to Nash. "But don't worry, I'll get the kids back. Please trust
me."
Nina, confused, asked, "Mr. Frank, do you know who took them?"
He gave a bitter smile. "I'm not sure yet, but I'm going to find out. Please, just look after my wife while I'm gone."
His cryptic response only heightened Nina's concern, and she wanted to press him for more details, but Nash
gently stopped her.
He gestured towards Mrs. Frank, signaling that they needed to take care of her first.
Nina instructed the staff to take Mrs. Frank upstairs to rest while Nash managed the guests.

In the guest room, Mrs. Frank was still sobbing when Nina brought her a glass of water. She sat across from her,
waiting patiently until the tears subsided. "Do you know where your husband went?" Nina finally asked gently.
Mrs. Frank shook her head, looking
weary. "Mrs, York, you don't understand our family. I've never been involved in his business. He toldwhen we
got married that | wouldn't have to worry about anything, and I've always kept my distance."
Nina nodded, understanding now that Mrs. Frank was a sheltered trophy wife who had no idea whate
they would have to wait for Mr
Frank to return with answers
her husband was up to rela
She was restless, worried sick about the children.
Just then, Nash entered the room and gave her a reassuring look. "They found the white car. It's
parked near the art gallery where Yvonne had her exhibition. Do you remember the place?"
