Chapter 1082 A GPS Tracker
The news shocked the people gathered around Rita's bed. Siobhan helped Rita to drink a glass ofwater. Once Rita was calmer, Siobhan asked with a stern expression, "Mom, what exactly is going on?"
Rita was feeling better after taking some time to calm down. Thus, she explained what happened."Nicole and I went shopping. After we left the place, a group of men appeared from nowhere andkidnapped her. The men knocked me out, so I have no idea what happened to her next."
The room lapsed into silence after she said those words.
Gabriel looked pensive when he heard the news. He cast a glance at Evelyn out of habit. Finding nouneasiness in her expression, he forced himself to not suspect her.
Colton pursed his lips. He was radiating a coldness that showed in his aura. Casting his eyes to theground, he was surprised to hear himself calmly asking, "Did you see who they are?"
Rita nodded before musing for a while. "They're a group of bulky men. I reckon they're trained fighters.Someone must've hired them to kidnap Nicole. I don't know the specifics, though."
Fatigue got to Rita as she recalled the situation. After all, she was aging. Such an experience was toomuch for her to handle. Even though she had recovered, her head was still spinning after that punch.
Narrowing her eyes, she pondered for a moment before raising a hand to dismiss the others. "It'sgetting stuffy in the room when everybody's around. You guys can wait outside."
After that, she turned to Gabriel and Colton before ordering in a hoarse voice, "Colton, Gabriel, both ofyou stay. I have something to tell you."
Given the situation, Siobhan saw no point in arguing with Rita. Thus, she took Evelyn with her beforeshe left the room.
Rita struggled to sit upright. Gabriel immediately helped her into a sitting position before he whispered,"Do you wish to speak to us in private, Grandma?"
Rita nodded and said, "Go to the jewelry store. The bracelet I gifted Nicole is expensive, so a mini-GPStracker was attached to it. I got all excited about giving her a present, so I forgot to take out thetracker."
Her words gave Colton hope and he immediately asked, "Is it the jewelry store on Merchant Street?"
Nodding again, Rita urged them, "Get going! Find the store owner!"
The pair nodded. Just when they were heading to the exit, Rita called out from behind them.
"By the way, Gabriel, don't tell Evelyn or your mother about what I've said."
Gabriel paused. The idea of Rita having doubts due to what happened before came to his mind. Hepromised with a bitter smile, "I understand. I won't tell them."
He had talked to Evelyn more than once before this.
I hope Evelyn isn't involved, or else not even our family can save her this time.
As soon as the duo left the ward, Evelyn approached them. Tugging at Gabriel's sleeve, she looked at
him with innocent eyes. A worried look fell on her face. "Gabriel, how is Grandma doing?"
Trying his best to contain his doubts, Gabriel shook his head and answered, "She's fine. She'll recoversoon."
Evelyn pretended to sigh in relief. A small smile flashed across her face as she replied, "I won't keepyou, Gabriel. You should go replace Nicole. She and Collie are going to marry soon. It won't do bothfamilies any good if she is captured by someone else."
Gabriel studied Evelyn's perfectly disguised expression. Her innocent look convinced him and hesigned in relief. Evelyn has nothing to do with this. She has moved on.
Colton turned around. His unfathomable gaze landed on Evelyn's face for a moment before hewithdrew his gaze. Then, he turned to Gabriel and suggested, "Let's go. Old Mrs. Gould has providedenough information for our search for Nicky."
The smile on Evelyn's face froze. Her fingertips flinched as the thought startled her. Suppressing thepanic that rose within her, she forced a smile. "Can I come with you, Gabriel? I'm worried about Nicoletoo."
