qCharlotte grew more anxious the more she thought about it and kept urging Morgan, “Drive faster!”

“This is the fastest I can go, Ms. Lindberg,” Morgan said, almost in tears from nerves herself. “This is a public road, and there are a lot of other cars and pedestrians here. If I go any faster, we'll get into trouble.”

“Tell the other family members to go to Garden Villa and pick up the kids,” Charlotte said, beginning to think of other solutions. “Tell everyone to be there. Now.”

“Okay!”

“Ms. Lindberg, are you saying that that monster is going to do something to the kids?” Morgan said, panicking. “Mr. Spencer's people would protect them, right? Even in the worst-case scenario, they should be able to hold out until we get there!”

“Spencer's men won't be able to last that long.”

Charlotte picked up her phone and tried to call Robbie but to no avail.

This only made her more anxious. “Sh*t. They've probably been lying in wait for a long time. I can't believe they acted right after I signed that contract.”

“It can't be,” Morgan hurriedly said. “Didn't you say that Mr. Lindberg's guys would protect them in hiding? Nothing will happen to them.”

“They were supposed to, but after what happened today, I'm afraid all of Danrique's guys are helping to look for Zachary.”

Charlotte was kicking herself inwardly, and she hated herself for taking so long to think of something so important.

She thought revealing to Chris that they were looking for Zachary would result in the mastermind conducting a search for him too.

Now, however, she realized that that person had only sent a portion of his people to go after Zachary just to throw her off. The real threat was probably already lying in wait at Garden Villa, just waiting to get their claws on her children.
