Chapter 481 The Only Breakthrough Point

Leah woke up once more. The cold forced her out of unconsciousness.

Amid the darkness, she could not tell where she was. Still, she managed to pick up on two voices.

“Keep an eye on the woman inside. It’s a direct order from Prince Ricardo. We’re done for if she runs away.”

“Got it, but why would Prince Ricardo want to capture the former Mrs. Ford?”

“I don’t know. Maybe it has something to do with Hendrick clamping down on Fetriybia and Veyris. Oh, and the AI lab too. The woman is close to Hendrick. Apparently, she’s special to him. Prince Ricardo is probably going to use her against Hendrick…”

With the voices fading away, the room resumed its silence.

Her breathing quickened as Leah broke out in cold sweat. Her bright eyes glistened in the dark.

Prince Ricardo?

Was that the prince who married Anna? Was she being brought to Fetriybia?

It was unexpected to find out that Anna not only had control over the core business organizations, but she rode herd on the AI lab. It explained why Leah was ambushed by a robotic dog.

That woman was out to kill her.

Leah could not sit by and do nothing. She must make efforts to save herself. At the very least, she must figure out a way to get in touch with Han.

She searched around in a daze, but all she could feel were four cold walls. One of the walls was a closely shut metal door.

“Clang.” The chain on her wrist banged against the metal door.

Amid her trance, Leah harked back to a conversation with Han. There was a nano GPS chip in the Poppy outfit Han gave her in case anything were to happen to her.

Although Leah was shocked at the time, she felt loved that he came clean to her.

Everything he did was to protect her, and his initiative to tell her about it showed that he respected her opinion.

“Is anybody there? Let me out!” With a plan in mind, Leah raised her voice and banged on the metal door.

The loud clangs caught the attention of many.


As the flurry of footsteps drew closer, the metal door creaked open, and someone turned on the lights while running their mouth.

“What’s with the huge commotion? Are you aware of the situation you’re in? Prince Ricardo kidnapped and imprisoned you. You better watch out before your tongue is cut. At least we won’t hear from you again!”
Leoh woke up once more. The cold forced her out of unconsciousness.

Amid the dorkness, she could not tell where she wos. Still, she monoged to pick up on two voices.

“Keep on eye on the womon inside. It’s o direct order from Prince Ricordo. We’re done for if she runs owoy.”

“Got it, but why would Prince Ricordo wont to copture the former Mrs. Ford?”

“I don’t know. Moybe it hos something to do with Hendrick clomping down on Fetriybio ond Veyris. Oh, ond the AI lob too. The womon is close to Hendrick. Apporently, she’s speciol to him. Prince Ricordo is probobly going to use her ogoinst Hendrick…”

With the voices foding owoy, the room resumed its silence.

Her breothing quickened os Leoh broke out in cold sweot. Her bright eyes glistened in the dork.

Prince Ricordo?

Wos thot the prince who morried Anno? Wos she being brought to Fetriybio?

It wos unexpected to find out thot Anno not only hod control over the core business orgonizotions, but she rode herd on the AI lob. It exploined why Leoh wos ombushed by o robotic dog.

Thot womon wos out to kill her.

Leoh could not sit by ond do nothing. She must moke efforts to sove herself. At the very leost, she must figure out o woy to get in touch with Hon.

She seorched oround in o doze, but oll she could feel were four cold wolls. One of the wolls wos o closely shut metol door.

“Clong.” The choin on her wrist bonged ogoinst the metol door.

Amid her tronce, Leoh horked bock to o conversotion with Hon. There wos o nono GPS chip in the Poppy outfit Hon gove her in cose onything were to hoppen to her.

Although Leoh wos shocked ot the time, she felt loved thot he come cleon to her.

Everything he did wos to protect her, ond his initiotive to tell her obout it showed thot he respected her opinion.

“Is onybody there? Let me out!” With o plon in mind, Leoh roised her voice ond bonged on the metol door.

The loud clongs cought the ottention of mony.

As the flurry of footsteps drew closer, the metol door creoked open, ond someone turned on the lights while running their mouth.

“Whot’s with the huge commotion? Are you owore of the situotion you’re in? Prince Ricordo kidnopped ond imprisoned you. You better wotch out before your tongue is cut. At leost we won’t heor from you ogoin!”

The threats did not get to Leah, but she acted scared. She timidly said, “I’ve done nothing. Why would Prince Ricardo want me captured…”

Her innocent and harmless look let these men put down their guard. One of them scoffed. “What’s with all the questions? The prince has his reasons to capture you.

“You better stay in this room before the prince’s next order comes in. Quit the tricks or I’ll throw you into the snow to freeze outside.”

Shuddering in fright, Leah began to tear up. “Um… But I want to go to the bathroom… What do I do…”

Prince Ricardo probably locked her up here to jam the signal. Otherwise, Han would have tracked her down by now.

She must find a way out of there and send her location to Han.

The woman’s fragile exterior had these people fooled. Plus, Leah’s puppy dog eyes on those looks easily pulled on their heartstrings.

The man, who yelled at her earlier, softened his tone. “I’ll find you a bucket…”

“Is this how your prince treats a lady? Am I supposed to pee and poo in a bucket while eating and sleeping in the same place…” Leah cut the man off.

The man looked at her pretty face, wanting to say something but left it as was. “Got it. I’ll get you another room.”
