Chapter 1026 - Merry Got Kidnapped!
Chapter 1026 - Merry Got Kidnapped!
At this moment, near the narrow alley, Anna pulled Clifford up frantically. It was clear that panic was etched in the deep sockets of her eyes.
She initially wanted to go to the cafe near the shop with Merry to buy some ice cream.
There were a lot of people in the shop, when they were choosing the flavors at the counter, a group of tourists came to visit.
The crowd immediately dispersed in the cafe.
When Anna had chosen her ice cream and paid the bill, she realized that Merry had long since left the bustling cafe.
She looked for her several times and asked many people, but none of them recognized the figure of the little girl.
After listening to Anna's explanation, Clifford's heart went bad. He looked at the shop with his cold eyes and was about to leave.
But when his shoulder was pressed down, Clifford looked back and saw Chris with an even expression. "Young master, Merry, she…"
"You go to the back of the shop to see if there is an accessible back door. Anna, you and I will go to that cafe and look for her again."
Clifford left, while Anna looked at Chris with a pale face, and said shakily, "I've looked for her many times, but... Merry has disappeared."
"How about her cell phone? Is it turned off?" Chris didn't panic in this predicament. He squinted at the cafe in front of him, his eyes filled with a murderous aura.
Anna nodded anxiously. "Yes, I've tried to call her but the number is inactive..."
This is what scared Anna the most.
She immediately called Merry when this happened. Because of this, she felt that something was wrong!
If indeed they were just separated because of the crowd, there was no way her cell phones would be inactive almost immediately.
The only possibility was for her to be taken away by force!
But who dared to kidnap Merry in broad daylight?!
Chris sneered and called Samuel on his cell phone.
The little girl was snatched under their nose, and it couldn't be a coincidence, it was clearly planned!
In less than five minutes, Chris and Anna were walking around the cafe.
When they returned to the alley to gather, Samuel and Emma had also come rushing over anxiously.
At this time, deep in a secluded alley, Samuel asked with a serious expression, "How could she have disappeared? Can't you guys protect a little girl with this many people?"
Anna lowered her head guiltily after hearing that voice. "Uncle, I'm sorry…"
Chris glanced at Emma with a cold gaze on the side. "What's the use of blaming each other now? You're a father, can't you act properly?"
Samuel choked, he took out his cigarette case. His hand that was holding the lighter trembled slightly.
The little girl has been closely guarded by the family for many years, and she hadn't encountered such a case since she was a child.
But today, Samuel came to the Kebayoran Baru area because he wanted to meet Erika by chance, so he didn't bring his bodyguard!
How could a coincidence like this happen!
When he loosened his guard for just a second, his little girl suddenly disappeared from the earth!
...
Ten minutes later, the group returns to Donny's clothing store.
Merry's disappearance cannot be kept secret. They ask Erika and find out that the little girl has never returned. So far, they are sure that she has been taken away.
Inside the shop, Erika pulled Anna with one hand, and asked anxiously. "Anna, have you searched all over the place?"
Anna nodded, crying. "I've looked everywhere for her. I also asked people, but no one saw Merry."
At this time, Donny calmly comforted her, "Don't worry, there are many old alleys in this place. Some do have a bad signal. My guards are more familiar with this place, so I will send some of them to look for her."
Donny's words did not ease Erika's worries.
She shook her head in horror and muttered, "Merry has never suffered since she was a child. She has a simple mind and kind character. She never had enemies. How could she possibly be a target..."
At this time, Chris received a call from Clifford. He took the phone and stood up with an excuse, then he walked out of the tea room.
But before he left, his gaze was cast dimly at Emma, ??who looked anxious, and rather aware of an unspokable danger around her.
The disappearance of this little girl better not have anything to do with her!
After Chris left, Samuel also wanted to get up to follow, but Emma stopped him. "Samuel, don't go, it's better to wait for the news here. Maybe she's just playing and got lost alone."
Samuel immediately frowned, but before he could reply, Erika had said coldly, "You don't understand Merry. Even though she loves to play, she knows her limits. Not to mention she's not familiar with this place, she can't possibly run around alone!"
As a mother, Erika gives all her affection to the ones she cares about.
And Emma's accusing tone when she talked about Merry made her very unhappy.
She rarely showed her face. She was angry at the Hiroshi family's house.
Emma then replied casually, "You're right, I don't know anything about that child. But it seems you forgot what Merry came to this place for, didn't you?!"
It was as if she was alluding that Merry's disappearance was entirely caused by Erika.
Donny didn't understand the estrangement between them, but Emma's impolite tone made his brows sink a little.
"Instead of accusing her in vain, you'd better try to help find this child. No one wanted this accident to happen. Although the area here is small, it is relatively safe. News of kidnapping in a crowd hasn't happened in years!"
Emma glanced at Donny who was trying to save Erika. She then said with a sneer, "Nice words, but the child is missing now, who knows if it's really safe or not."
"Don't be noisy!" Samuel looked at Emma in annoyance, and scolded coldly.
If this woman hadn't come to Kebayoran Baru to interfere with his arrangements, his child wouldn't have suddenly disappeared.
At this time, Samuel was fed up with Emma.
...
Outside the door of the shop, Chris could see the figure of Clifford.
They then walked to the corner of a quiet street. "I've been checking out the cafe, there is no back door around the building. Outside, the camera only focuses on the entrance. I have seen the footage, the problem lies with the crowd of tourists who suddenly swarmed in."
He had just forcibly entered the cafe and checked the surveillance cameras. Merry initially came to the counter to choose ice cream.
But a group of more than 20 tourists came in from outside and immediately blocked the way.
The crowd of tourists didn't stay too long. After they all left, Merry was no longer on camera.
Chris licked his lips and looked ahead thoughtfully.
At this time, Clifford narrated and said frankly, "Young master, is it possible that a woman named Emma did this?"
Chris curled his lips coldly. "My biggest suspicion is on her, but today ... she has every reason to deny it!"
Merry had no enemies, and the only person who was clearly suspected was Emma.
But this woman was still her real mother!
If indeed this incident was plotted by Emma…Chris could only say that this woman was very smart.
She has been under everyone's suspicion, and even after investigating, he can't find anything strange about her.
