Bride to Be, Not Me

Chapter 205

When Heidi and Simon were taken to an old estate, Heidi was still in shock. She had struggled against the foreign bodyguards during the ride, even slapping one of them before finally calming down.

Both were shoved into a grand hall. The interior was timeless and elegant with ornate furnishings.

There, they saw a Cruznian man sitting on a couch.

Louis, who had just returned, eyed Heidi and asked in Cruznian, "Are you Shirley Olson?"

Why did everyone keep asking her that?

Heidi demanded, "And what if I am? Who are you? Do you realize this is illegal? Even abroad, you can't just kidnap people!"

Louis took a deep drag from his cigarette. "I'm asking you are you Shirley Olson?"

The intensity in his gaze rattled Heidi. The hall was filled with tall, imposing bodyguards. Sweat beaded on her forehead, and her confidence faltered. "I am..."

Louis narrowed his eyes. He had once seen Shirley, though she had deliberately worn heavy makeup at the time. But now, something about this woman didn't match.

He gestured to Santiago. "Take her phone."

"What are you doing? That's my private property!" Heidi struggled, but she was no match for the men.

After forcing her to unlock her phone, they found nothing useful on it.
