Chapter: 2050
It was not the route Annis usually took. And in the footage, Janey was pulling Annis, seemingly leading the way.
Raegan stood at the entrance of the narrow alley and stared at the surveillance camera that only covered one way, the rest being blind spots. If Annis and Janey were taken away at this corner, the surveillance camera would not have captured it. Obviously, the abductors knew the blind spots well.
But the reason behind Janey leading Annis down an unfamiliar path baffled Raegan, her mind in chaos.
In a flash, several people crossed her mind. Alexis. Henley. Katie.
She hated these ruthless beasts to the core. But who exactly took Janey and Annis away?
Raegan got in the car and headed straight to the headquarters of the Dixon Group. Without hesitation, she barged into Alexis' office.
Right then, Alexis was in his expansive executive chair, flirting with his female secretary. The disheveled secretary sat on his lap while he held her pink face. While kissing her, Alexis murmured sleazily, "Sweetheart, give it to me. Don't torture me anymore. Just give it to me..."
Their intimate moments were interrupted when the door was slammed open with a bang.
Startled, Alexis pushed the secretary away. The secretary yelped when her body hit the floor.
Raegan stormed over, slammed the desk, and shouted, "Was it you? Was it you?"
Interrupted during his tryst, Alexis, furious, retorted, “Are you sick? What are you talking about?"
Raegan scrutinized Alexis. There was no evasion in his gaze, no telltale signs, just annoyance. And it didn't seem an act. Yet, she couldn't rule out Alexis as a suspect.
Pale and drained, yet her eyes remained piercing as she looked at Alexis. “Don't touch my daughter. Otherwise, I swear to bring you down."
A shiver ran down Alexis' spine, ashamed that he was intimidated by a young woman. He tried to mask his nervousness and said coldly, "Stop spouting nonsense. Withdraw Mitchel's case, and all your trouble will go away."
Since Raegan had last disrupted his plans, Alexis had been cautious, keeping a low profile. He was wise enough not to kidnap Raegan's daughter at such a time.
“In your dreams!" Raegan yelled, her voice hoarse from agitation.
After saying this, she left Alexis’ office.
Alexis didn't mind her anymore. He helped his secretary up from the floor and continued his indulgence.
As soon as Raegan came out of Alexis' office, she gasped for air, clutching her chest. Her anxiety made her heartbeat erratic. She leaned against the wall to steady herself and waited for her heartbeat to stabilize.
Then, a pair of black leather shoes slowly came to a stop in front of her.
