Chapter 241

“Yes,” Pierre answered with a nod as he stared at the document blankly, his thoughts running wild.

While Selena was thinking of ways, she suddenly received a call from an unknown number. “Hi, amI speaking with Ms. Selena Yard? Do you want to know about the whereabouts of the child?” Thecaller on the other end asked with a voice changer, making Selena fully alert. “Who are you?”

“You don’t need to know who I am. All you have to tell me is if you want to know the whereabouts ofthe child. If you do, I might tell you something.”

Trying to maintain her composure, Selena asked, “Are you the kidnapper? What are you planning todo?”

“Well, I’m not planning anything. Today at midnight, come alone to the hut in the small forest onGastner Street without telling anyone. Look for the answer there yourself, but remember everythingI said, or you’ll just find his body!”

Almost instantly, the caller hung up, leaving Selena shouting into the phone. “Hello? Hello!”

Biting her lip, she looked at the number and saw that it was a hidden number. Looks like this personhas planned everything well. But should I go or not? What if it’s a trap? she pondered over it, caughtin a dilemma. What if it isn’t a trap and I can really find clues to Jamie’s whereabouts?

Even if it was one chance out of a hundred, or even a hundred million, she couldn’t miss thisopportunity! Initially, she thought of telling this to John, but she knew that he wouldn’t be able tocalm down and might come up with the wrong plan or even spoil the plan because he was tooanxious. That would be bad, then.

Hence, she had to go alone. Even if it might be a burning pit, she had to jump in to find out! Aftershe had reached a decision, she looked for Linda and gave her some tasks before taking a look at

Juniper whom she hadn’t seen for days.

With a worried look, Juniper asked, “Mommy, you didn’t find Jamie yet?”

Shaking her head, Selena answered, “We’ll find him, for sure.”

“Yeah, I believe that we’ll definitely find him. You’ve lost weight over the past two days, Mommy. Besafe and take care of your health. I’m a good girl, so you don’t have to worry.”

Scooping Juniper into her arms, she kissed her on the cheek and said, “You’re amazing, my baby.Mommy will find Jamie soon.”

“Yes, I believe in you!” She held Selena’s face between her hands and gave her a peck on thecheek as well.

In the evening, after having dinner with Juniper, Selena then left in a hurry. The location provided bythe other person was really far from where she was now, so she had to start driving earlier. As thepeople on the streets grew less, the road became harder to drive on.

Selena had to admit that this person was an expert, managing to find such a secluded spot. Prior tothis, she had brought a GPS tracker microchip with her and informed Linda to observe her location.Once she discovered anything amiss, she should inform John immediately or call the police.

When she reached the front, she suddenly realized that it was the end of the road. Taking a lookaround, she saw that there was nothing around and it was complete darkness. However, she saw asmall light in the distance and reckoned that had to be the place mentioned.

Getting out of the car, she checked that she had her dagger and pistol with her before going closerto the hut. She kept her ears sharp, but couldn’t hear anything from the surroundings, so shedecided to enter from the back. The display screen in her hand showed that there was no onearound at all!novelbin

This was an infrared monitor that would display if there were anyone around, but it was showingnow that there was nobody else here.
