After Divorce Billionaire Ex Found Me Pregnant

Serving Herself On A Silver Platter.

Staring at the location of a totally different place, Leonica became confused.

Why was she receiving a different idea when Chief Robert has figured out where her mother was being held?

Was this all part of Irene's plan to throw them off? Or was the building the decoy?

Benjamin's abandoned property was on the outskirts of town, far away from civilization and general public, so if the police were to start their journey there now, it's take them nothing less than three hours to get there.

But this location she had been given, Leonica thought as she opened Google map and typed it in, was closer.

If she left now, she'd probably get there within fifteen minutes, maybe less.

So was this the real place her mother was being held? And was her father's building just a decoy? Or was this place the decoy and Irene was just trying to throw them off her trails, believing that Leonica would cry wolf to the entire police team and her father if she received this picture?

Well, she predicted one thing correct and that was the fact that Leonica was heading to the place, but it was just her, not the police force.

If Irene was trying to throw them off her trail with this picture, then she'd be the one to confirm that.

"Leonica?" Her thoughts were interrupted by the voice of her father, who was standing by the door.

She looked up from her phone and smiled at him. "Yes father?"

"Chief Robert wants to see you for a minute." He informed.

Nodding her head, she walked towards the living area, handing the bottle of water over to her father as she walked past.

"Chief Robert, you want to see me?" Leonica asked as she walked into the living area.

Robert quickly rounded up the instruction he was giving and approached her. "Yes, I have a few questions to ask you."

"Go ahead."

"I asked your brother and father earlier and they stated that you were the closest to Mrs. Romero, during the last few days, did you perhaps notice anything weird? Like she being frightened or on edge?"

Leonica shook her head. As far back as she could remember, her mother seemed normal. "No, not at all." She answered, watching as the police man nodded. "But, why are you asking this, if I may ask."

"We're trying to determine the kidnappers motive. If this is simply a ransom case, then they should have contacted your family by now, but they haven't and that leads me to believe that this might not be a simple kidnapping. There might be an intent to hurt Mrs. Romero, or maybe even kill her."

Leonica swallowed thickly, her hand tightening around her phone. She couldn't do this, she couldn't gamble on her mother's life. Perhaps it was best to inform Chief Roberts, they'd know how to handle the situation faster, right? Yeah, it was best she came clean now.

"Chief Roberts, actually-" She stopped speaking when her phone vibrated in her grasp and one glimpse at the screen told her that her actions right now, wasn't the smartest.
