He stood up immediately, fully aware of the gravity of the situation, so he didn’t dare to delay things any longer.
McKenna and Derrick followed him.
They came to see him specifically to check the surveillance footage.
After all, without his permission, they could not view it.
After Gavin explained what he needed to see to the person in charge of the surveillance, they quickly pulled up the footage of Danika entering the elevator.
They then saw several people enter the elevator with her inside.
It was unclear what they said to Danika, but she followed them to the basement after a brief exchange.
Although they couldn’t hear the conversation, judging from the expressions of the people in the surveillance footage, it was definitely not anything good.
In the surveillance footage of the basement, they saw Danika and those people walking out of the elevator.
She was pushed into a black SUV, and the car drove off, disappearing from the scope of the surveillance camera.
“Mr.Porter, does this mean Danika has been kidnapped?”
McKenna spoke up uncertainly.She’d never seen a kidnapping taking place in real life before.
Gavin’s brow was now tightly furrowed.
He thought it was just the two of them making a fuss, but he didn’t expect something bad had really happened.
“You don’t have to worry about this anymore.Don’t go around talking about it.I’ll handle this,”
Gavin instructed as he took out his phone to make a call.
McKenna wanted to ask more, but Derrick tugged at her sleeve and shook his head at her.
“Let’s go.We should leave this to Mr.Porter.After they came out of the monitoring room, McKenna looked at Derrick suspiciously and asked, “You’re just going to leave like this? Aren’t you worried about Danika?”
“My main concern was that she might have passed out somewhere without anyone noticing.Now that we found out she has been taken away, there’s naturally no need for me to worry about her,” Derrick explained.
Danika was a member of the Zellweger family, after all.No one would dare to harm her that easily.
McKenna thought Derrick’s words made sense.
“That’s true.We’ve wasted so much time.I’m hungry now.”
“Okay, okay.What does my little princess want to eat?” Derrick said with a laugh as he led McKenna away.
Danika’s situation was out of their hands and no longer their concern.
At the same time, the Zellwegers received the news of Danika’s abduction.
Evan and Eustace also learned about it very soon and started searching for her too.
On that day, news of Danika’s disappearance spread throughout Bardoff City.
Some people were anxious, while some were hopeful; there were also those who were hiding in the dark, ready to strike at any moment.
Danika herself was unaware of all of this at the moment.
She was dizzy and had a headache —she didn’t even know where she’d been taken to.
The scenery in front of her was beginning to blur, and she knew she would pass out at any moment, but she kept holding on.She was afraid she wouldn’t make it through that day if she lost consciousness now.
Fire at the Intruder
With a creak, the door was pushed open.
The big man from before walked into the room and stared coldly at Danika.
“Miss Zellweger, ask Eustace to come and save you.” Danika furrowed her brow.
“Here we go again.”
Was Zeke never going to give up? He’d just suffered a serious blow, and now he was targeting her again.
Was he so eager to have another taste of defeat? “We have no choice.You’re someone Eustace values,” the man said.
Danika stared at him with suspicion.
“Did Zeke send you?” She couldn’t help but wonder if Zeke would make another attempt again so quickly.
The Quinceys weren’t doing well currently.
They didn’t have a high chance of success by making a move again so soon.It didn’t seem like Zeke’s style of doing things.
“There’s no need for you to know who sent me,” the man replied without giving a definite answer.
Danika looked at him for a moment, then lowered her head and stopped talking.
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t speak.We’ve already notified Eustace, and he should be here soon.We just don’t now if he’ll be as lucky as last time,” the man said before turning around and leaving.
Danika stared at the closed door and felt that something was off.
“Would Zeke really use the same method twice? If not him, then who? Moreover, even though the man just now didn’t admit that Zeke sent him, his response was ambiguous and didn’t rule out this possibility,” Danika contemplated deeply and then realized that no matter who sent him to kidnap her, they were up to no good.
Consequently, she had to escape as soon as possible.
Unfortunately, when she tried to stand up, the soreness she felt in her whole body, her blurry vision, and the throbbing pain in her head all prevented her from taking even a single step.
As soon as the big man walked out of the room, someone approached him.
“It’s all arranged.The boss will be back soon, and he reminded us not to blow our cover.”
“Ask him not to worry.We always deliver.When have we ever disappointed him?” the man replied.
However, right after that, he started worrying.
“Why do you think the boss went to all this trouble?”
“He obviously wants to play the hero and rescue the damsel in distress,”another one of the men said.
“I heard from Howard that our boss is completely devoted to this woman.He must be in love with her,” someone else chimed in.
The others nodded, having heard something similar.
Just then, the man’s phone beeped, and he picked it up.
After reading the message, he put on a serious expression.
“Get ready.It’s starting.”
With that, the group dispersed and began to act according to plan.
Danika was struggling to find a way to escape inside the room when she heard noises from the window behind her.She immediately turned her head and started to feel nervous.
But soon, as the window was quietly opened, Evan’s face came into her sight.
“Evan? What’re you doing here?”
“Shh, don’t talk.Those men are all outside.Let’s sneak away quietly.”
Evan didn’t let Danika say much.He quietly entered the room through the window, picked up Danika, and prepared to leave.He carefully placed Danika outside the window.
But when he was about to leave through the window, the door was forcefully kicked open.
“Who are you?”
“Everyone, fire at the intruder!”
With one command, gunshots instantly rang out.
Hiding under the window, Danika was extremely anxious as she didn’t see Evan come out.
“Evan?”
As soon as she called out, she could hear a muffled groan.
Danika didn’t have time to think much.She immediately got up.
Looking through the window, she saw Evan in a gunfight with her captors.
Danika noticed his arm was bleeding; it looked like he’d been shot.
“Be careful, Evan!”
“Get down, and don’t move!”
Evan shouted at her.
He Can’t Die!
