A Vengeful Girl novel Chapter 160

After Bun had taken some medicine, Linda had to let her rest in the infirmary's bed for a while. Upon returning to the office, Linda thought about calling Brian. She figured that could help Brian, whom she believed Bun wanted to see most at the moment.

But it occurred to Linda that she didn't have Brian's phone number. He never seemed to carry a mobile phone with him. Every time he called, he was looking for Bun. On the other hand, Bun never called Brian because he would always call from an unknown number.

Perhaps it was also because of Brian's identity. He held an important post in the army, so the phone calls he made were done in secret.

Linda had no choice but to call Charles. She asked him to find Brian and tell him to check in on Bun. Charles could work out a solution. He told Linda not to worry and went to look for Brian.

Knowing that Bun was ill, Charles planned to pick Linda up himself.

Linda thought it was sweet of Charles, who was really good to her. She didn't marry him because of his status, but because she felt loved by him.

When it was time to meet Charles at half past four, Linda went to the school gate and waited for him. Not wanting to attract too much attention, she asked Charles not to enter the school.

After waiting a few minutes at the gate, a black car pulled up in front of her. A man dressed in a black suit and a tie got out from the driver's seat. He walked to Linda and asked, "Are you Miss Xia?"

Linda studied the man skeptically and nodded.

Young Master Mu can't make it, so he asked me to pick you up. he explained.

Seriously?

Charles said he would pick her up personally. Why wouldn't he call her if he couldn't come?

Linda discreetly took out her phone and dialed Charles' number, but the line was busy.

Linda reckoned that Charles was really occupied, so she didn't give it a second thought. Since Charles was the only person she spoke with about him picking her up, the guy must've been sent by Charles.

After all, Bun was ill today.

Linda nodded with a smile. "Very well, thank you."

After getting in the car, Linda didn't find anything wrong at first. As the car drove further, she noticed they were heading in the wrong direction. Although Linda had trouble reading maps, she could tell which way led home.

Something was wrong!

Linda touched her dragon head ring. She was certain the car was heading in the wrong direction. How could she be so careless?

How could she not realize it earlier?

She had such a poor sense of danger...

Where are you taking me?

This isn't the direction to the Mu Clan villa! Without responding, the driver continued to drive as if he hadn't heard Linda.

Linda suddenly started feeling light-headed.

She tried to raise her hand, but she didn't have the strength.

What was going on?

I'm sorry, Miss Xia. Please don't struggle. I won't hurt you.

Linda felt her head was getting more and more muddled, and she could hardly utter a word.

Who are you?

What do you want…

Linda lost consciousness before she could finish. Charles was on his way with Brian.

Their father had grounded him. Even if Brian had the means, he couldn't leave, so Charles went to his house and fetched Brian. Lord Ho let Brian go for Charles.

Charles was late because he had to pick up Brian first.

When Charles arrived at the school, it was about forty minutes past four.

Big Brother, I'll go and see how Bun is doing. You can pick up Linda on your own. I'll bring Bun home."

Brian got so nervous worrying about Bun, it felt like he had a fever himself.

Charles nodded. He didn't want to be disturbed when he was with Linda either. It was best for Brian to leave now.

Charles waited for a long time at the school gate, but didn't see Linda. She had asked him to keep a low profile and not enter the school, so Charles did as his wife wished.

Charles' frown grew deeper as he waited until six o'clock. There was no sight of Linda.

Charles took his phone and called his wife.

"Sorry! The subscriber you dialed has their power turned off."

The automated voice cast a shadow over Charles' face. He called Paul right away.

Check all the roads around Z High School. I want all the surveillance footage from four to five o'clock.

And call up the school and ask when Linda left."

As soon as Paul received the call, he knew that something was wrong, and that Miss Xia must be in danger. He immediately ordered the WSS Group, Get all the surveillance footage around Z High School.

He also called the school and asked about Linda's schedule that day.

Paul was particularly quick, giving Charles all the information within five minutes.

"Young Master, Her Lady left school at four thirty today. According to the surveillance, she was standing at the school gate when a black car arrived. A man got out and spoke a few words with her, then Her Lady got in the car."

Hearing Paul's report, Charles found it both amusing and irritating. Did Linda actually think the car had come to pick her up?

How could she be so foolish?

Getting in a stranger's car and leaving just like that!

Not knowing who took Linda away, Charles grew agitated. Paul continued his investigation, only to discover that all the surveillance cameras in the other roads had been damaged. It seemed that someone had done it on purpose.

Young Master, starting from Wangchuan Road, all the cameras have been destroyed. I can't find the location of the black car.

What about the license plate?

Can you find anything?"

Paul paused before saying, The license plate of the car was written off five years ago." The results affirmed that someone had done it on purpose.

Who on earth kidnapped Linda?

The first name that crossed Charles' mind was Sarah.

Hearing what Paul said, Charles found it both funny and annoying. Did Linda, the little fool, actually think that the car was coming to pick her up? Why was she so stupid? Getting in a stranger's car and left like that?

Charles was getting agitated for he had no idea who took Linda away.

Paul continued his investigation, only to find that all the surveillance cameras in other road sections had been damaged. It seemed that someone had done it on purpose.

"Young Master, starting from Wangchuan Road, all the videos have been destroyed. I can't find the whereabouts of the black car."

"What about the license plate? Can you find anything?"

Paul paused and said afterwards, "The license plate of the car was written off five years ago."

The finding affirmed that someone must have done it on purpose.

Who on earth kidnapped Linda? The first name crossed Charles's mind was Sarah!
