Needless to say, Michael could not find Elspeth at all. After he searched through every part of Blaydal and Damoria—and even Frank’s territory—not even her shadow was found.

Now that Joneson Corporation was decimated, Michael had no choice but to make an official statement that he would not intervene in Elspeth’s marriage and career, giving her the liberty to maneuver her life. It finally appeased the fans as they let the Jonesons off the hook.

Elspeth released a short clip to tell everyone that she had forgiven him. Her cheeky counter made his blood pressure spike to the roof, resulting in his hospitalization.

When the news reached her ears, she was relieved that he would not get in her way for a long time.

Today was the day Elspeth and Callum returned to Damoria. While Callum was in the middle of an online meeting, Elspeth received a message from Frank.

‘Elspeth, there’s something I haven’t told you. Could you drop by the coffeehouse?’

It was surprising and doubtful, but she prepped up to go to the coffeehouse, nevertheless. A pall of ominous air shrouded the garage. Before she could enter her car, someone brusquely grabbed her wrist.

She realized it a little too late because the intruder’s hand had reached over and covered her face first. A strong smell wafted her nose, and drowsiness sat upon her eyelid.

Watching Elspeth fall in a swoon, the intruder heaved a sigh and looked at the man standing at the side. “We got her.”

Jordan sneered. “Good. Bring her to my place.”

“Yes, sir.”

By the time Elspeth regained her consciousness, she was fettered on a bed. Jordan, who was standing nearby, zeroed in on her like she was a masterpiece.

“It’s been a while, Elspeth.”

A nervous Elspeth put on a calm face. “I didn’t know you’re like this, Jordan. Are you angry because I didn’t get engaged with you?”
