Chapter 2922 'If he likes Rita that much, I might as well let her live. After all, we could benefit a lot from Sherman. But Sadie is right, too. She's alone now, so how could she even have the means to kidnap Rita? It seems I've been overthinking,' Karen comforted herself, hand on her chest.
Meanwhile, Sadie's expression changed after hanging up the phone, and she briskly walked over to Esmond. "Mom called. You heard her, didn't you? She doesn't want anything to do with you. After you've settled the Rita problem, I'll find a way to arrange for you to meet with her, but for now, I have to go home." Esmond nodded. "I know I let you and your mom down before. Alright, sweetheart, you go hfirst. Daddy won't let you down with this matter, and I'll make sure it won't lead back to you." Sadie felt very unwilling when he referred to himself as her father, but she needed his help, so she had to bear with it for the tbeing.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOn the way back, Sadie's mood remained cheerful. She heard from Karen that Rita had gotten into trouble, but they still could not figure out who had harmed Rita.
'Sweet, sweet Rita... No matter how cocky you are, you still walked right into my hands! This time, I won't let you walk away alive! Even standing under the sun, Sadie's sinister expression was enough to send shivers down anyone's spine. Sometimes, even Karen could not understand why her own daughter hated Rita so much.
Sherman arrived at the scene before Vince did. His heart turned cold when he saw the shattered car window glass. He took a closer look at the inside of the car and noted that apart from Rita's phone, none of her belongings seemed to hold any importance to her kidnappers. In fact, they remained untouched.
"That means they didn't do this for the money. What was the motive, then?' thought Sherman, trying not to think of the worst-case scenario.
Since they had taken Rita's phone, it proved they had ulterior motives. Who'd they call? It surely wouldn't be Vince, right?" Initially, Vince thought Sherman was overreacting, but when he saw the chaotic condition Rita's car was in, he becso shocked that he could not speak.
He circled the car twice before pointing at the window and asking Sherman, "Did the criminal organization do this? How dare they take my daughter in broad daylight! What do these people want?" Sherman, with a cold flick of his eyelids, did not answer a single question. Instead, he walked over to the side to call his friend.

I'm willing to pay any price!" Vince belatedly realized the significance of his daughter to Sherman when he heard him refer to Rita as his wife during the call.
'Seems like I was right to bet on him. He really has fallen in love with Rita,' thought Vince.
However, he started to panic at the thought of his daughter's om disappearance. What if Rita was in trouble? How would he explain to Sherman? How would he explain this to his late ex-wife?
'Oh, Taya, please look after our daughter from heaven and keep her e safe, Vince prayed silently.
Sherman did not just sit idly by. He immediately contacted the om authorities and reported everything to them.
