Secret Admiration: Finding True Love After...

Chapter 688 Despair

After hearing what Alvin said on the

phone, Chandler's face darkened, and his eyes widened.

"That's impossible!"

"The intel is solid," Alvin replied. "We've managed to capture one of them, but we're still unclear about the situation inside. We're worried that if we rush in, the kidnappers might eliminate the hostages, putting their lives at risk.

"Chandler, you were always the best in our class at the police academy, especially

when it came to covert infiltration. If we

want to save your sister, we'll need you to take point on this."

After hanging up, Chandler's face was as cold as ice.

Alvin's words were still ringing in his ears.

The kidnappers had chosen their location well. It was an abandoned factory with a maze-like layout. Actually, several factories merged into one. For inexperienced officers, infiltrating it would be like walking through a labyrinth. They'd likely alert the kidnappers before even locating them.

These were desperate men who lived on the edge. There was no telling what they might do if cornered.

But Chandler was an expert in this field.

Chapter 688 Despair With him leading the infiltration team, their chances would be much better.

Chandler turned back to look at Meryl, still sleeping peacefully in her hospital bed, his eyes filled with conflicting emotions.

He desperately wanted to stay by her side, to be there when his wife woke

He tried to apologize to her face for failing in his duties as a husband yesterday.

He wished he could be the first thing she saw when she opened her eyes.

But... Alvin had just called to tell him that the kidnappers had brutally carved out one of Rachel's kidneys.

Those evil bastards had only waited one night before cutting out Rachel's kidney. Chandler couldn't bear to think about what might happen if this dragged on any longer.

On the phone, Chandler had questioned whether the police report could be wrong. How could they possibly have taken her kidney?

But Alvin confirmed it was absolutely true. The surgeon had been caught by police leaving the abandoned factory with the kidney in hand.

Under interrogation at the station, the surgeon had confessed everything.
