178 Asking Around for Identities

“That person is... the York family’s Miss? I didn’t see wrongly, did I? That side profile is definitely not Sharon!”

“Miss Crystal was kidnapped? She even said that she was the employer. What’s going on?”

“I think someone deliberately kidnapped Miss Crystal to make her say that!”

Wave after wave came. Who would’ve thought that the person in the video was the daughter of the gambling king?

At the same time that Jenna repaired the video, many people also discovered the clues in the video and posted it online.

This matter was also entrusted to the kidnappers by Crystal. If Sharon’s appearance was exposed at the start, most people might not believe it. It was just to attract everyone’s attention and expose her true identity-only then would it cause a huge commotion.

...

At this moment, Crystal was huddled in a corner. Her choking cries and frightened screams woke up the kidnappers. Her hands and feet were tightly tied by thick ropes, and she even bled.

In the spacious and abandoned warehouse, the fan above her head creaked.

Crystal’s intestines were green with regret. I don’t know why this happened at all. The person to be kidnapped should’ve been Sharon, but why is it me now?

“Hahahaha! Boss, the young lady is awake!” A rough voice accompanied by footsteps sounded. Crystal’s heart trembled, and her body kept trembling.

A fierce-looking man walked in and sized Crystal up with a frivolous and disgusting gaze. “Sl*t, do you know that you’ve offended someone you shouldn’t have?! Don’t worry; we won’t do anything to you. You just need to cooperate with us and take a few videos. When the time comes, we will naturally let you go.”

Crystal argued incoherently, “I... I’m not Sharon! You kidnapped the wrong person-I’m your employer. What are you doing now?”

“Hahahaha, I didn’t expect you to have some brains. Since you already know who’s trying to mess with you, obediently cooperate with us and suffer less. Otherwise...” The man violently pulled the chain in his hand, and Crystal was thrown heavily onto the cold and hard concrete floor.

Crystal let out a short scream and saw the disgust on the man’s face. She instantly restrained her voice and sobbed softly. Who can save me now? Why didn’t Wallace recognize my voice?

“What else do you have to say now? This has nothing to do with Miss Sharon, right? We can’t wrong her.” Jenna put on a harmless smile and looked at Zachary and Louis with a hint of mockery.

Wallace glanced at the people from the combat division. “Sirs, the woman in the picture is called Crystal. It seems like she was kidnapped. It’ll be hard on you to find her whereabouts. After all, she’s also a socialite.”

Without saying anything else, Wallace frowned slightly. This matter is definitely not that simple.

Just based on what Crystal said, Wallace guessed something.

“Don’t worry-leave this matter to me.” The vice-captain gestured for his subordinate and then looked at Sharon. “Miss Sharon, I hope you can consider what I said just now. After all, safety first.”

With that, Wallace left the scene with Sharon and Yusuf.

In the car, Wallace seemed to think for a long time before finally saying, “How did you know those people? I keep feeling that you’re different from usual today...”

In fact, he didn’t know what to say, but he couldn’t suppress his curiosity. However, he was afraid that his wife would be annoyed by him if he asked further, or he might touch on something he shouldn’t say.

After all, Yusuf’s appearance was too strange. If it was just for business cooperation, they could look for him privately. Moreover, the people from the combat division were existences that they couldn’t provoke, but the way they looked at Sharon didn’t seem like it was the first time they had seen her.

Hearing Wallace’s question, Sharon only smiled, her face warm. “I really don’t know what’s going on with Mr. Yusuf. The people from the combat division only protected me because I was kidnapped and threatened by Caleb in the hospital. It’s really like that...”

Wallace was still a little skeptical but didn’t say much. Was I overthinking?

At night, the guests and host were all happy. Wallace and Yusuf were chatting happily, so they could only send Sharon back early.

As soon as she entered the house, Sharon was stopped.

June looked at her daughter-in-law apologetically. “Sharon, what happened tonight was a misunderstanding. I only said those words in a moment of desperation... Sharon, I hope you don’t take it to heart!”
