Chapter 553 It Cannot Be You

The Ferrari driven by Natalie sped along the highway like a red hurricane.

Joshua, who was on the road, thought that the driver was a man. When he took a better look to see the driver, he realized the driver was the woman who had no extraordinary beauty but had bewitched his good friend Christopher.

This woman…

Previously, at Christopher’s birthday gathering, Joshua had been rather impressed by her.

Compared to those really beautiful women, she was plain but somehow she had stolen Christopher’s heart.

Christopher used to be a playboy by nature and had had many girlfriends before but now he had refused to meet all the other women even if there were the most beautiful women.

Joshua could see very well that Christopher had stopped sleeping around ever since he met this plain woman.

Natalie’s mind was on Sophia and she did not pay any attention to Joshua who was in the car next to hers. As soon as the red light turned green, she stepped on the accelerator and drove away quickly at a speed which was obviously higher than the normal driving speed.

In the slightly more than ten seconds at the traffic lights, Joshua could see very clearly the sense of urgency on Natalie’s face.

This woman must be facing some serious problems!

Instinctively, Joshua followed her car, at the same time calling Christopher by Bluetooth on his phone.

Beep…

After a short while, Christopher picked up the phone.

“Hello…” Christopher’s voice was very low.

“It’s me.” While tailing Natalie’s Ferrari, Joshua spoke slowly. “I just saw the chick you fancy. It seems she’s having some problems, so she’s driving at an abnormally high speed.”

The chick I fancy?

Christopher blurted out, “Natalie?”

“Yes, it’s her,” Joshua continued, “I’m following right behind her. After some thought, I decided to let you know. Bro, if you wish, I’ll follow her. If not, I’ll drive away.”

Almost without thinking, Christopher replied, “You follow her, but don’t let her replace out. Then, synchronize your navigation with me, and I will come right now.”

This was the type of reply that Joshua was expecting.

Christopher had been a playboy, never thinking of being serious with any woman. However, when this type of man fell in love, he fell really deeply and nothing could change him.

“All right, I got it.”

About twenty minutes later, Natalie arrived at an abandoned warehouse near the snowfield.

She parked her car outside the warehouse, pushed open the iron door and walked in.

In the past, the warehouse must have been a temporary place for repair jobs on machines. The structure was made of iron and electrical cables were laid down haphazardly with a few hanging light bulbs flickering on and off, swaying with the wind blowing through the cracks in the iron walls.

There is a strong smell of motor oil in the warehouse, which is pungent and choking.

“Sophia… Sophia… where are you?”

The warehouse was very large, and there were still many old machines and compartments left there. The chaotic space made Natalie’s nerves rather tense.

Not long afterward, Natalie heard a squeaking sound, followed by a ‘boom’ like some object was knocking against an iron drum.

Following the direction from which the sound came, Natalie moved slowly over to the source and found that the sound came from a compartment in the deepest part of the warehouse.

“Do not think that just because you are Samuel’s daughter, I won’t dare to do anything to you. If you keep screaming and shouting, I’ll really let you have it.”

“Mmm… Mmm…”

When she got closer, Natalie could hear clearly that it was the voice of Sophia.

“Don’t do anything to the child! You’re just using her as bait to force me to show up.” Natalie pushed open the door of the compartment and strode in. “I’m here, let her go!”

When she pushed open the compartment door and saw the woman who was holding Sophia captive, her pupils widened slightly in shock.

“M-M-Melissa…” Natalie’s red lips parted slightly. “H-H-How could it be you?”
