The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 63 Spending the Night with Him.

It was the afternoon when Elias and Amanda arrived in Calcheth. He had someone start a detailed search according to the coordinates from the location tracker. Meanwhile, she hoped to join the search party but could only stay with him and wait.

After a few hours of looking, it was almost dark, and they finally found the hotel Dick was at this morning. all thanks to the phone he had left there.

Suddenly, Elias’ phone began vibrating, and Amanda immediately sat upright while looking at the phone, hoping they had found her son. He glanced at her with his cold eyes and answered the call. “Speak.”

According to all the hotel’s security footage, that car has left toward the highway. So, they might be in another city by now. He’s just toying with us.”

“They did.”

She immediately felt relieved and smiled but did not expect the man to dampen her spirits the next second. “They found a phone, and that car is probably headed to another city. We have to move now.”

Her smile froze as she almost broke down uncontrollably. “What is that kidnapper trying to do? He didn’t call to ask for a ransom or even try to contact us. Instead, he brings Aiden everywhere. What is the meaning of this?”

She could not wrap her head around what the kidnapper was thinking. Don’t kidnappers abduct people for ransom? But this kidnapper is bringing Aiden everywhere and says he will contact me in three days. What is he up to?

Elias narrowed his eyes. “Maybe this isn’t about the ransom.”
