    “Mr.


    rk, I’ve just been informed that Bertha and Miley were abducted near the auction club.

    Exiting the elevator, Matthew paused to think, then veered towards the corridor’s end.


    In a firm tone, he instructed, “Check if the Pierce family could use our support.


    ”


    He was concerned about Ste, who was about to leave the hospital, and wished to spare her from further distress.


    “Understood, Sir Fernando responded firmly.


    “Also, we encountered a few homeless individuals by the art exhibition’s entrance that day.


    Mrs.


    rk gave one of them some money.


    He remembered her.

    Feeling a glimmer of hope, Matthew said, “Keep questioning him!”


    Right after, Ste’s voice came from behind him.


    “Questioning who?”

    Fernando apprehended several suspects and is currently interrogating them.

    Without hesitation, Ste urged, “Then you need to head to thepany immediately.

    Ste nodded in agreement.


    Retrieving her phone, she said, “I’ll message her, advising her not toe.

    Struggling, she managed to type a message with her left hand.


    “Miley, I’m leaving the hospital now.


    Once you’re done with your work, head home and rest.


    We’ll arrange to meet another day.

    She whispered Bertha’s name but received no response.


    Miley was clueless about their abductor’s identity.


    Her hands were tightly bound behind her back to a pir.


    She clenched her teeth and made several attempts to free herself, but her efforts proved futile.


    Taking a deep breath, she surveyed the room, searching for a means of escape.
