No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 740

The police hadn't come knocking yet, but Allen did.

Nowadays, Allen was the face of the Clark family, with Lord Clark pulling the strings from behind the scenes.

"Where's the girl?" Allen cut straight to the point, wasting no time.

Shirley had mentioned that the figure only resembled me, but from Allen's tone, he was convinced that figure was indeed me. Was it that he couldn't recognize me, or was he deliberately choosing to believe it was me? That part remained a mystery to me. "I don't know, and it's none of my business," I replied directly.

"There's obviously a reason I've come to you, Felicia. If it's money you're after, that can be arranged. Just hand over the person," Allen said, as if I were some money-hungry woman. Fair enough, given that my current assets were viewed by outsiders as merely a generous breakup settlement from Conrad. There were plenty online accusing me of treating love as a transaction.

"What do you want with her?" I didn't deny any involvement with Nancy's disappearance, instead, I curiously questioned Allen.

"That's none of your business," Allen was unwilling to provide an answer.

I pouted, "Let me guess... you want to have Nancy in your control to manipulate Shirley? Or maybe you're worried that if Nancy's disappearance isn't resolved soon, the online backlash might affect Sapphire Lounge? Or perhaps..." "Felicia, that's family business, not your concern," Allen interrupted me.

But I didn't drop it; my curiosity was piqued, so I pressed on, "Or is your mom the one who sent you?"
