Terrence hurriedly asked two bodyguards to pick up Secretary Wang and followed after Jason.
Back in Reed Residence, Jason rushed straight to the bedroom where trained hounds were barking at the bottom of his bed.
“Move the bed!” said Jason.
Everyone immediately caught sight of a secret pa**age when the bed was lifted away.
Jason’s face paled instantly. He… had no idea that there was such an opening in the bedroom.
‘What’s with this opening? Has it always been here?’
Security guards had begun to investigate the opening that led to a tunnel.
After Secretary Wang was brought to the room, a satisfied smile appeared on his face. ‘Everything’s going well!”
Jason suddenly grabbed Secretary Wang’s collar and said, “Did you know there’s a secret pa**age here?”
“Yes, Old Master told me about it. He built this residence, so naturally, the most detailed construction blueprints were also in his hands. He also got them to retain the secret pa**age,” said Secretary Wang.
Jason had roughly figured out what was going on without needing Secretary Wang to say it out.
Secretary Wang had shown up on purpose to lure him out, and once he went out, someone else took the opportunity to pa** through this secret pa**age and take Grace away!
Old Master Reed had probably planned it before his
Jason clenched his teeth.
Old Master Reed was the one who raised him, so he naturally knew him best. The old master knew he was suspicious by nature and would be uneasy whenever Grace was involved. Therefore, he ordered Secretary Wang to disappear for some time before appearing again.
This way, Jason would want to see Secretary Wang in person as he would only feel at ease after personally questioning him!
‘Even when Grandpa’s dead, he still wants to do this to me?
‘How is Grandpa going to bet whether I’ll give up my life for a woman?
‘Nothing must happen to… Grace!’
When Grace woke up, she was in a car with one hand firmly bound to the steering wheel while the other was bound to the handbrake.
The car was parked on the cliff. The back of it was hanging off the cliff, leaving only the front on land. Things looked extremely dangerous. The entire car might just fall off the cliff with the slightest movement inside the car or an external force.
The sea was right below the cliff!
Grace’s body stiffened. She was too afraid to move.
In front of her was a phone, and Lily was looking right at her!
They were both on a video call.
“Grace, you’re awake!” Lily smiled darkly. “Speaking of which, I didn’t expect that the person I used to trample on could one day become the Reed family’s mistress.”
“Lily, what are you trying to do?” said Grace as she tried hard to suppress her unease and fear.
All she remembered was that she had been in the bedroom when she suddenly felt a little dizzy, so she decided to lie down and rest.
Then, she woke up like this!
‘So it was not sleepiness but something else? Was I… kidnapped by Lily?
‘But how? How did Lily get me out of Reed Residence when Jay has arranged so many bodyguards to protect me and enhanced the security?’
A series of questions flashed through Grace’s mind, but now was not the time to think about them. She should be thinking about how to get out of this situation.
Lily answered Grace through the video call, “I want to see what will happen to you! Grace, since you were the one who got me into such a mess, it’s not going to end well for you either.”
“Why don’t we see how much Jason loves you and whether he’ll give up his life for you?”
“Also, there are bombs all around your car. If anyone rushes over to save you, they’ll not only get blown up but you and the three babies in your belly will also be blown into the sea.”
Every word Lily said made Grace’s heart sink.
Lily was trying to kill her!
Grace calmed herself down and said to Lily, “If you let me go, I’ll forget everything that has happened between us. I can also ask Jay to let you go and help the Atkinson family go through this crisis.”
What she had to do now was try and tempt Lily with these conditions to make her hesitate. Only in this way could she create more opportunities to escape.
It was just that no matter how good Grace’s offers were, Lily did not seem to care. “Grace, I just want to know if Jason is willing to risk his life for you! This man didn’t even shed a tear when my sister died! Don’t you want to know how far he’ll go for you?”
Lily’s eyes burst with hatred as she spoke.
She hated Grace! How did she, the Atkinson family’s second heiress, turn out like this just because of a nobody like Grace?
She had stolen Sean from Grace back then. She thought Sean would love her deeply, but he abandoned her just like he did Grace!
‘I’m Lily, the goddess in the hearts of thousands of men! How can
I be less than Grace? Jason will also discard Grace and sacrifice her. I’m sure of it!’
Besides, if she did as that man surnamed Wang told her, she would receive enough money for her to live happily abroad!
Just then, several black cars drove over one after another.
Grace saw many people getting out of the cars, and Jason was among them.
Jason also saw Grace and the current state of the car she was in. His face instantly paled as he rushed toward her.
“Don’t come over! There are bombs around the car. They’ll explode!” cried out Grace, stopping Jason from running over.
Jason’s steps came to a sudden halt, and so did those following him.
Grace momentarily breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the men standing just a dozen meters away from her.
She did not expect this to happen in only a few hours.
She was lucky that the car windows were not rolled up, so her voice could still be heard.
“Grace, don’t be afraid, I… I’ll get you out of here!” Jason said with a pale face, his hands trembling slightly at his sides. At this moment, he seemed more afraid than Grace.
3/3 Grace could not help feeling a**ured. She believed that he would be able to save her. She and the children would be safe!
“Lily brought me here! My hands are tied to the steering wheel and handbrake. I can’t move. Lily is on a video call with me on the phone…” Grace quickly explained her current situation to Jason.
Grace could sense that Lily was now a little abnormal. It was impossible to persuade Lily to disarm the bombs and let Grace go through video call.
Frowning, Jason suddenly grabbed Secretary Wang, whom the bodyguards had carried out of the car. “You got Lily onboard?”
Secretary Wang smiled. “Yes, you and Grace have made her so miserable. Of course, she’s bent on getting back at you.”
Jason pondered for a moment and instructed his subordinates, “Call the police and ask them to send over their bomb specialists.”
