Chapter 686 Emmeline Is Not Gullible

The road splits in two from this point onwards. Yet, none of them would lead to Janie's hometown regardless of

which road Emmeline ends up taking.

Where on earth was Emma headed to then?

Just then, Benjamin received a call from Abel.

"Benjamin, how did it go?"

"For now, I think Emma might have been trying to look for Janie before she went missing." Benjamin stood by the

roadside in the darkness. "However, the town where Emma's vehicle was last seen had no roads leading to Janie's

hometown."

"Perhaps…" Abel surmised, "Janie might have asked Emma to meet her somewhere in that town?"

"Then, I'll try looking around the town first." Benjamin replied, "Hopefully, I'll be able to find new clues about

Emma's whereabouts."

"Thank you. I'm already at the airport now. I'll be leaving on my private jet soon. I should be able to reach Struyria

around dawn," Abel said.

"Mhm. Let's decide where to meet up after you return home." Benjamin nodded slightly.

After ending the call, Benjamin made his way to the town center. Unfortunately, it was already very late into the

night. The streets were mostly quiet and deserted as most of the town residents had turned in for the night.

Since they had missed the time to start their search, Benjamin had his driver park the car at a corner of the street.

Then, he and Eric got out of the car to smoke.

As it grew chillier at night, Eric tried to persuade Benjamin to take a nap inside the car. However, Benjamin

stubbornly refused to do it.

He gave a slight cough and answered in a hoarse voice, "How could I rest when we still had no clue as to where

Emma had gone to now?"

"Don't worry, Mr. Benjamin." Eric said, "Once all these shops on the streets are open for business in the morning,

we'll visit every single one of them and ask their owners if they've seen or heard from Ms. Louise."

"Mhm." Benjamin replied, "If Janie and Emma had made an arrangement to meet here, they would probably have

reserved a place at a diner or a restaurant. We'll check those places first thing in the morning."

After a moment of hesitation, Eric asked, "The thing is… If Ms. Louise was just trying to meet up with Ms. Janie, why

couldn't we reach Ms. Louise on the phone then?"

Benjamin massaged the center of his brows. "That's what I'm feeling anxious about as well. I'm worried that

someone had lured Emma into their trap by impersonating Janie."

Eric fell silent upon hearing Benjamin's words.

Mr. Benjamin and I know that that would only mean bad news for Ms. Louise.

Ms. Louise is not an unsuspecting person. She's just very concerned about Ms. Janie. She probably would not let slip

any chance of her finding Ms. Janie if the opportunity presents itself.

Inside the dungeons of the Imperial Palace.

Evelyn slowly opened her eyes and found herself in a cold, dark place.

"Are you finally awake?" Emmeline let out a quiet chuckle, "Keep your voice down. Otherwise, I'll knock you out

again this time."

Emmeline's threats made Evelyn shudder a little. She was about to nod and answer Emmeline when a rat hopped

onto her body out of nowhere.

"Ah!" Evelyn screamed at the top of her voice. Then, she fainted and dropped to the floor.

"She's such a scaredy cat!" Emmeline caught the rat in a flash. Then, she threw her arm back and flung the little

creature away.

She patted Evelyn on her cheek to wake the lady up.

"Rat!" Evelyn shouted the minute her eyes flew open.

"I threw the rat out already!" Emmeline scoffed in disdain. "Why are you overreacting like this? There are also

centipedes and cockroaches in this place."

"Centipedes? Cockroaches?" Evelyn fell backward as she rolled her eyes and passed out the next instant.

Emmeline did not try to wake Evelyn up again this time.

I should think of a way to get out of this place.

Emmeline tried to look for Evelyn's phone by searching her body. She managed to find the phone eventually, but

the phone battery had completely run out.

"D*mn it!" Emmeline hurled the phone toward the wall in exasperation.

At the same time, Alana remembered that Evelyn still had her phone as well.

If Emmeline used Evelyn's phone to contact someone for help, the fact that Evelyn and I had worked together to

abduct Emmeline would be exposed!

I shouldn't have listened to Evelyn and agreed to this plan so recklessly! What do I do now?!

After a moment's thought, Alana came to a decision. She hurried into the kitchen and prepared a bowl of noodles.

Then, she added some powder to the noodles.

Emmeline hasn't eaten for the entire day. I'm sure she's starving.

Once she eats this bowl of noodles… Heh…
