Chapter 148

Sienna did not answer the question, and she left.

Leanna held her new phone and heaved a sigh. She went to the backdoor with the men and looked at

the car not far from her before she said, "Give me a minute. I don't feel too good."

One of the men turned around and told her coolly, "We're here to help, Miss McKinney. Don't try to pull

anything funny."

Leanna bit her lip. "I won't. I mean, look at me. I'm pregnant. What can I even do? You know how

pregnant women are. Life's a hassle for us. I can't help it."

"What do you want?"

"I…" Leanna looked around and pointed at the patch of wild bushes nearby. "I need to relieve myself.

Can you give me a few minutes?"

The man looked a little impatient, and he was reluctant to let her go.

Leanna grumbled, "Look at me! Do you think I can escape? Besides, I'm pregnant with the Pearsons'

kid. I'm not some sort of criminal. Treat me like one and I'll tell Mrs. Pearson about this."

The man was about to say something, but his friend stopped him. He told Leanna, "Go. We'll wait for

you."

"Thank you." She slowly went to the bushes.

After she was gone, the man who spoke first complained, "Can you not waste our time?"

His friend replied, "This is the only road around this place. Even if she tries to run, she can't make it too

far. I mean, her belly's too big for her to even run. Nothing's gonna happen. Relax."

The man looked upset, but he said nothing. He looked at the time. Leanna was still not back ten

minutes later, and he had a feeling something was wrong. He went to the bushes, but before he could

check on her, she said, "Stop right there! Don't come any closer!"

The man stopped. "Are you done yet, Miss McKinney?

Leanna said, "I told you pregnancy is a hassle. You'll get it when you're married."

Ten minutes later, the man asked, "Miss McKinney?" Nobody answered him this time. He knew

something was wrong, so he went and checked on her, but she was nowhere to be seen. All that was

left was the phone Sienna gave her. The man scrolled through the phone. When he saw its call history,

he realized that Leanna was talking to him through the phone. He cursed and turned around. "She's

gone! After her!"

Leanna came out after they were gone for some time. She held her waist and heaved a sigh. They're

finally gone. She asked Zoe to help her out before. This was the only main road behind Pearson

Group's building, but there was an alleyway beside it. Leanna just had to keep walking this path for

about half an hour, and she would reach the main road on the other side.

She did not make it too far when she felt something sharp held against her throat. Someone said

coldly, "Don't move." She stopped moving. Leanna could see that the guy was a ruthless one. The

dagger was absurdly sharp, and she felt a sliver of pain coming from her neck. The man tossed a piece

of cloth to her. "Cover your eyes." Leanna did as she was told, and the man held her hands behind her.

He tied them up and pushed her shoulder. "Walk."

They came to a black car. The man opened the door and stuffed her inside. He said, "I won't hurt you

for now, but only if you work with me." He then went to the driver's seat.

She felt the car sway. He's probably driving. A while later, she asked, "Have you been waiting for me?

Is this your car?"

The man ignored her.

"What would you do if I hadn't distracted them? Can you take on all of them?" She stopped for a

moment, then she chuckled. "I think you can. You're a lot more ruthless than they are."

The man was silent for a moment, then he said, "So, you know who I am?"

Leanna said, "I remember your voice." She continued coolly, "You always show up when I need it most.

I get used to things like that."

Ron kept quiet and set his sights ahead.

The group of pursuers reappeared not long after Ron left. They heard the commotion, and what they

saw shocked them. They were about to stop the car, but Ron floored the accelerator and sent two of

them flying.

She could not see anything, as she was blindfolded. All she could feel was the car rumbling violently,

and it felt like they crashed into something. She held back the urge to vomit and moved herself

somewhere safe. A few minutes later, they came to the mountainside, and there were three cars there.

He said, "They're probably your rescuers."

Leanna was silent for a moment, and she smiled. "Probably."

Ron stepped on the accelerator without hesitation. The Pearson guys did not stop him as they were

worried about Leanna. They made way for Ron the moment he sped up, and Ron's car disappeared

into the night.

Jonathan got out of his car, looking dejected. He called Aidan, "Sir, someone took the madam. We…

couldn't stop him."

Aidan was in the residence when Jonathan called him. He hung up and tried to leave, looking all dark.

Georgina put her glass of champagne down and went over to him. "Where are you going, Aidan?"

Aidan ignored her question and picked up his pace.

"Aidan!" Georgina followed him out of the hall and held his arm. "This is the first time we're attending a

public event since our engagement. You can't leave me alone just like this."

Aidan turned back. "I've agreed to your terms. Why do you care so much?"

"But Old Mr. Pearson is going to suspect something if you leave now. Your efforts will be for nothing.

Miss McKinney will be fine. Trust me. I'll help with the search after this."

Aidan pulled his arm out. He told her, his voice as icy as the Arctic air, "She's not the only reason for

everything I'm doing, but if something were to happen to her, someone will have to pay."

He flung her away. Georgina could only watch as he left the place.

Gordon was chatting with his guests when his underling told him about the news of Leanna's

kidnapping. He froze up for a moment and told his underling what to do. Sienna got the news as well,

but she looked calm, as if she did not care about this at all.
