Before Cornelia could respond, Dylan had already handed the car keys to her. âThe medicine is in the box in the middle of the back seat. I hope you can fetch it for me,â Dylan said
âOkayâ Comelia turned to Abigail and said, âAbby, you guys keep an eye on him. Iâll get the medicine and be back ASAP
âAlright, hurry up.â Abigail looked at Dylan, her heart filled with dissatisfaction. This guy knew he shouldnât drink but he did anyway. If anything happened, their peaceful life might be a goner
Cornelia hurned downstairs, walked out of the residence area and went to the car to get the medicine. As she opened the back door and got in to fetch the medicine, to her surprise, there was a man in a suit in the back seat.
Realizing she might have been set up, Cornelia tried to escape, but the car door was locked in an instant, and the driver started the car immediately. Cornelia tried to secretly call her emergency contact, but it seemed like the signal was jammed in the car and she couldnât even make the call for help.
Comelia steadied herself, looked at the driver wearing a hat and mask, and asked, âWho are you guys? Where are you taking me?â
They seemed to ignore her, not saying a word.
âDo you guys realize that itâs illegal to deprive a citizen of their freedom? Cornelia asked.
At these words, the man next to her let out a cold laugh, as if mocking how ridiculous Corneliaâs words were.
Cornelia checked her phone again, still no signal. All she could do now was to wait, wait for Abigail to realize something was off, wait for them to call the cops and rescue
her
She just didnât know if she could safely wait for helpâ¦.
LANDLO
Abigail waited for a long time, but Cornelia didnât return. She took out her phone to call, but Corneliaâs phone was unreachable. Worried that something might have happened to Cornelia, she said anxiously, âDad, Mom, I canât get through to Nellyâs phone, can you guys try?â
Allen and Sonya also tried calling Cornelia, but to no avail.
Tahlia tried the same and again couldnât get through. âAbby, Iâll go look for her.â
Abigail said, âLetâs go together.â
They all went downstairs together and found that Dylanâs car was missing.
In a panic, Abigail grabbed Dylanâs collar, âDid you conspire with someone to take Nelly away?â
Dylan said, âAbigail, you need to calm down. The most important thing now is to find her.â
Allen said, âWe should call the police right away. They can help us find her more quickly.â
Dylan said, âYou guys go look for her. Maybe she went to someone she knows. Iâll call the cops.â
Allen said, âAbby: you and Tahlia go east, your mom and Tanisha go north, Roy and I will go west. Letâs split up.â
Abigail said, âOkayâ
But Dylan, who was supposed to call the police, didnât actually make the call. He stared at the familiar number on his phone screen for a long time, and finally called it.
On Corneliaâs side.
The car passed one wide street after another, then turned into a small road and finally stopped in front of a runâdown courtyard.
When the car came to a steady stop in the yard, the man accompanying Cornelia finally spoke, âMs. Stewart, he is waiting for you inside. Please come in.â
âComelia asked, âWhoâs he?â
