Boss, Your Wife is Asking for A Divorce, Again!

Chapter 426 It’s Too Late

After the spine-chilling threat, Sonia didn’t dare to even move a muscle. Noticing her obedience, the kidnappers

stopped threatening her and eased up on her. The next moment, she felt herself being lifted in the air, and she

guessed she was being dragged into the van. Just like she expected, she immediately dropped to the ground as

soon as the hands that were grabbing her ankles released her.

The vinyl sensation of car seats told her that she was in the backseat of a vehicle. At that moment, even her heart

reacted to the dire situation by raising her pulse rate. Am I in a van now? Man, I can’t believe I’m being taken away

by these people. At the thought of that, Sonia immediately shivered in fear because she didn’t want to be taken

away by some strangers to some place she didn’t know. After all, it could end up terribly for her if she was taken to

some remote and desolate place. I must run for my life! She sat bolt upright when those words showed up in her

mind.

Nevertheless, Sonia’s plan was quickly thwarted by the grim reality when one of the kidnappers twisted her arm

and restrained it right behind her back before pinning her on the seat. Feeling her skin rubbing against the rough

cushion, she moaned in pain. “Ouch! Let go of me!”

Needless to say, Sonia’s words were ignored by her abductors, who then sealed her mouth with duct tapes. At that

moment, Sonia could no longer talk like she did earlier. Soon, one of the kidnappers said, “That should do it. Now,

let’s tie her up with the rope and get out of here before trouble catches up with us. The cops can be here anytime

soon.”

“I know.” The other abductor responded just when Sonia felt her legs being bound by ropes.

On the other hand, Wanda endured the intense pain she suffered from the fall and got back on her feet to save

Sonia from the van. However, she underestimated her own injury, as she was quite badly hurt from the fall. As soon

as she tried to get up, she staggered backward and fell on her backside, hurting her tailbone in the process and

aggravating her injury.

Knowing she was unable to save Sonia by herself in her current condition, she turned her attention to the people

around her and begged them to do something. “Please save her, everyone! Please save Miss Reed! I’ll make sure

Young Master Toby repays your kind favor! Don’t let them take her away!”

Since the two kidnappers were greatly outnumbered by the witnesses around them, Wanda believed that they

could have saved Sonia’s life if they had interfered together. However, she forgot about the timid and indifferent

nature among people in the modern unforgiving society as she realized they were just watching a show.

After all, they all backed away when they heard Wanda’s plea for them to step in and rescue Sonia. Some of them

even left the scene, clearly showing their reluctance to help Sonia. Despite their sympathy for Sonia’s fate, they

didn’t feel obligated to rescue her because they didn’t want to get themselves hurt. Deep down, they were all

selfish for valuing their own lives more than that of the others.

In the meantime, Wanda felt an icy chill surging through her body when no one from the crowd was willing to lend a

helping hand. Filled with disappointment and frustration, she pointed at them with her shaking finger. “You… How

could you…”

As Wanda pointed at those people, they all turned around and avoided her gaze guiltily because they were also

aware of their own indifference. In the end, Wanda could only watch the van leave as she sat on the floor and cried

with a broken heart, blaming herself for failing to stop Sonia’s kidnap.

“President Fuller, it looks like something is going on up ahead. There is a huge crowd of people for some reason,”

Tom commented as he set his eyes on the crowd in Toby’s Maybach.

In the meantime, Toby, who was never a busybody, somehow had a bad feeling at the sight of the crowd. Thus,

when Tom was about to open the car door for Toby after pulling up not far away from the crowd, the latter exited

the vehicle by himself. Then, he squinted at those people. “Please check out what’s going on.”

“What?” Tom felt surprised with what Toby told him to do because he knew his boss was not a busybody, which was

why he overreacted upon hearing Toby’s words. However, he didn’t ask Toby why he wanted him to find out what

was going on with the crowd. Instead, he did as he was instructed and walked toward the crowd of people.

As Tom approached the crowd, he heard murmurs mentioning a van with two kidnappers. Thus, he was able to

quickly draw a brief conclusion about what was going on based on those words. Someone has been kidnapped and

taken away in a van. Who would be so gutsy to pull off an abduction outside the hospital in broad daylight? Just

when Tom was about to return to Toby to tell him what he learned, he suddenly heard a familiar cry that would

change the look on his face.

Is that… Wanda’s voice? Wait a second! Without a moment of hesitation, Tom turned around and weaved through

the crowd to confirm his suspicion. On the other hand, Toby, who saw the sudden change in Tom’s facial expression,

was quickly overwhelmed by a strong feeling of anxiety. In the end, he gave in to his curiosity and walked toward

the crowd to find out more for himself.

At the same time, Tom had successfully made it to the center of the crowd, where he saw Wanda lying on her belly

tearfully in a seemingly injured state. In that instant, his blood ran cold while Wanda cried helplessly amidst the

murmurs of discussion about a kidnap incident.

Therefore, Tom was sure that Sonia had been kidnapped because Wanda was supposed to accompany her for her

check-up. Hence, now that Sonia was nowhere to be found around Wanda, his suspicion was the only logical

explanation for her disappearance.

“Wanda!” Tom shouted out to the lady.

When Wanda heard the man’s voice, she stopped crying for a moment and looked up, turning her attention to the

direction she was called. At the sight of Tom, she shouted, “Tom, please hurry up and save Miss Reed! Someone

took her!”

Oh my gosh! My suspicion is correct. Tom took a deep breath and was about to say something but was soon

interrupted by an angry voice. “What did you just say? Sonia was taken?”

It turned out that Toby had weaved through the crowd and happened to overhear Wanda’s words, unbeknownst to

both of them. Sonia has been kidnapped. No wonder I had this strange bad feeling when I saw the crowd.

“Young Master Toby…” Wanda felt ashamed to face Toby because she reckoned she had failed her responsibility to

look after Sonia as he told her to. Now that Sonia was gone, she knew that she had let Toby down and lost his trust.

Meanwhile, Toby had no idea what Wanda was thinking, but apparently, he had no intention of finding it out either.

Instead, he walked up to Wanda and asked with a cold voice, “You said Sonia was taken. Who took her away?”

“I don’t know.” Wanda shook her head. “I only saw two muscular guys who looked especially intimidating. I bet they

must be the muscle for someone in the underworld. They came and took Miss Reed away with a van.”

“Van?” Toby asked with a cold voice as he set his eyes somewhere across the road. “Where did the van go? Did you

see the license plate number?”

“It went that way, but I don’t know about the license plate number because the van doesn’t have one,” Wanda

answered.

“Alright, I heard you,” Toby replied and weaved through the crowd, hastily making for the car before he hit on the

gas pedal and drove off.
