While Carmine spoke, she gradually felt like something wasn't right. "How could they learn the Vermillion Alliance's moves so quickly? Although they hadn't mastered those moves, they'd learned at least seventy to eighty percent. It means they are competent, so they must have deliberately chosen to fight with us this way!"

"You're right." Katherine nodded. "These people are deliberately disrupting the Vermillion Alliance's rhythm. That is why you guys were at a disadvantage initially and kept getting beaten up. Once you find their flaw, it's easy to defeat them. So, the question is, why would they do such a thing? Why would they take us head-on?"

After the conversation, Carmine fell into deep thought, and a sudden insight came. "Miss, perhaps… There's a possibility that they never intended to take us head-on?"

There is a possibility that they never intended to take us head-on, but what could be the reason for their actions? With so many thoughts running around in her head, Katherine forced herself to remain calm and carefully think about it. Suddenly, she turned ghastly and immediately looked up at the second floor. Her gaze landed on the window of the room Noah was in!

Carmine followed her gaze and looked up as well. She seemed to have understood something and instantly turned pale too. "Miss, are you suspecting—" Before she could finish, she saw Katherine dashing into the villa. Her heart sank, and she quickly followed behind Katherine.

The two ran upstairs one after another and made a beeline for Noah's bedroom. When they saw the wide open door, their hearts sank. No one was inside the room, and the little girl was nowhere to be seen!

"Miss Noah—" Carmine tensed up immediately and looked through every nook and cranny inside the room. Finally, she gulped and said, "Miss Noah might have been taken away—"

That possibility was now a reality, and Katherine's expression soon became as icy as her bottomless eyes. She finally understood why those people suddenly attacked them. It wasn't to take them head-on but rather to buy time! Perhaps, their initial target was her, but once they saw she wasn't easily caught, they decided to stall for time and turn their attention to Noah! They took her daughter!

That's simply nonsense." Emmanuel's voice was obviously laced with gloat as if he was deliberately provoking Katherine. "Miss Cornell, don't you forget that Gray Corporation has just dealt with a crisis, so where would I find the time to find trouble with you, let alone kidnap your cute little daughter?
