Chapter 134

Mina retold the entire incident from the beginning. When Marina heard that Olivia also got on the boat, her first reaction was to pin the blon her.

“I knew Olivia was up to no good. She must’ve been the one who hired those men to take our child! Ethan, you have to get

Connor back!”

Ethan felt a strong urge to slap Marina, but he was not in the habit of hitting women.

He thought no one in their right mind could’ve said what Marina said.

Holding back his anger, he said, “Get her out of here.”

Brent had already begun investigating. Ethan was touched when he saw footage of Olivia recklessly going after the group of men. He knew better than anyone that if she wanted to hurt Connor, she would’ve done it long ago.

She did love Connor–so much so that she went after him even when she knew the men had guns on them.

Looking worried, Brent whispered, “Mr. Miller, could your identity have been exposed? Did they take Master Connor to exchange him for that item?”

Ethan pursed his lips, his icy temperament overwhelming.

“No,” Ethan shut down that assumption immediately.

He replayed the footage of the men shooting their guns. Although they disguised themselves, their pistols were visible.

He zoomed in on the footage and said, “Look at their firearms. Those are MK23s.

“They were the standard issue weapons of the special forces in the early days. These pistols are comparable to the Desert Eagle in terms of firepower, but their downside is apparent. They’re too bulky. Even without silencers, they’re not easy to use with one hand.

“They wouldn’t think to use such clumsy and outdated weapons.

“Secondly, look at how these two ran. That isn’t how trained special forces retreat. So these guys are not them. If they were here, they would’ve held the whole ship hostage and not just a child.”

Brent didn’t understand. “If it isn’t them, who else would dare to cross the Millers?”

Ethan put his hands behind his back as he looked into the distance.

He said with certainty, “No matter who they are, they put so much effort into this operation. Since they aren’t after the life of someone, they must’ve done it for the money.”

“That’s true. Ms. Carlton spent a lot of money advertising this event. Especially this fireworks show. She spent a few hundred thousand on that. This huge amount must’ve spurred someone to kidnap Master Connor.”

With a sigh, Brent said, “Ms. Carlton also announced the details of the event. We were supposed to handle the security, but she insisted that her uncle do it instead. It would’ve been fine if they were just trying to line their pockets, but Master Conner got kidnapped. Even Ms. Fordham was taken.”

Ethan frowned at the mention of Olivia. If the kidnappers only wanted a ransom, they would not harm Connor yet. But Olivia had put herself in danger by throwing herself at them.

The kidnappers were well–prepared. They chose to carry out their plan on sea and not on land. They would’ve had a hard ttrying to evade surveillance on land.

On the other hand, mobile phones didn’t even have a signal at sea. So it was going to be hard to track someone.

Ethan’s biggest fear was that they were based on an uninhabited island. That would make their search way harder.

In the following hours, he made a lot of calls and set up a detailed rescue plan. Even after that, Ethan couldn’t relax for a moment. His brows were still furrowed with worry.
