When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 548 Pretty Clever

Scarface immediately refused.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

“You’re trying to use my phone to call the police, aren’t you? Kid, you’re pretty clever.”

“Mister, I just want to play a game, not make a call.”

Jonathan’s eyes were full of sincerity.

Scarface wasn’t easily fooled, though. “Shut up. Say another word, and I’ll sew your mouth shut.”

Jonathan had no choice but to give up and looked around for any chance to escape.

Yet, there wasn’t any.

He was just a child, and dealing with a man like Scarface was already difficult, not to mention the other people with him.

The only option left was to try and get a message to Zachary about where he was being held.

As he hadn’t returned last night, Zachary and the others were likely still looking for him.

However, with Scarface showing no mercy, it was impossible to get access to any communication devices. Jonathan had to figure out another way, perhaps through the other people involved.

At Sinclair Manor, chaos broke out. When George learned that Jonathan was missing, he issued a strict order that no matter what, even if they had to turn Tudela upside down, they had to find. Jonathan.

“Who dares to go against the Sinclair family? If I find out who’s behind this, I’ll skin them alive,” George declared with a vicious glare.

Then he turned and scolded Zachary, “The kid was in the bathroom for two hours, and you didn’t even bother to check on him. How careless can you be?”

Zachary was in a complete mess. Not only had he developed a bond with Jonathan, but the child. was also Nathaniel’s son.

If Nathaniel found out something had happened to his son, Zachary knew he’d be the one skinned alive.

“It was my oversight.”

Zachary frowned. “But it’s strange. If they kidnapped a child, isn’t it usually for ransom? Why haven’t they called for money?”

“Could it be an enemy of yours?” George asked again.

Farhan had more enemine than auen Nathaniel

His expression grew darker.

If it was one of his enemies, Jonathan might already be dead.

Zachary took a visibly flustered Vivian outside. “Regardless, we should inform Nathaniel first.”

“Tell Nathaniel?” Vivian’s eyes widened in shock.

“What else can we do? It’s taking too long with just our family searching. If the Rainsworth family. joins in, we’ll be able to find him, even if it’s just his body.”

His body…

Vivian’s face turned even paler.

“This is all your fault! If you hadn’t been so careless, Jon wouldn’t have been taken. I regret it so. much. I should’ve gone with you guys last night. It’s all because you didn’t let me!”

Vivian had wanted to go with them last night, but Zachary had refused.

He didn’t want to attract attention by taking her along.

“How was I supposed to know something like this would happen?”

He had always been single, never fearing to offend anyone.

But now, he was scared

As he sent people to search through his old enemies, he nervously called Nathaniel.

“What’s the matter?”

“Nathaniel, I lost your son.”

Nathaniel and Cecilia had already returned home.

Hearing Zachary’s words, Nathaniel was momentarily confused. What son?

Then, seeing Elliot, he realized.

“You mean Jon?”

“Yes. Yesterday, I took him to the party with me, and while I went to the restroom, someone kidnapped him.”

Nathaniel’s expression turned serious.

So the call Cecilia had received about a missing child wasn’t about Elliot–it was about Jonathan.

“I understand. Don’t tell Cecilia iust vet. I’ll send my men out immediately to search.” could lead to complications.
