The CEO Gets What He Wants

Chapter 616

Chapter 616 Shut Up Wretch

At the sound of Cecelia's desperate plea, Avery's heart skipped a beat. The oil pastel she held slipped from her grasp, falling to the ground.

Without pausing to retrieve it, she anxiously inquired, “Cecelia, where are you right now? What happened? Quickly send me your location!”

“I... I'm at...” Cecelia's voice sounded breathless, as if she had been running frantically on the road.

Before she could finish her sentence, a commanding female voice cut in, “Capture her! Even if you have to tie her up and take her to the hospital! Cecelia, if you obey and cooperate, I might spare one of those wretches. But if you dare to defy me, don't blame me for being ruthless!”

As Avery listened to the voice, it felt oddly familiar, but for a moment, she couldn't figure out who it was.

Just as she was about to inquire about the situation, she heard Cecelia's angry retort to the woman on the other end, “Griselda, my child hasn't reached the due date yet. Don't even dare to harm them. I will never sacrifice my baby's life to save your son, so abandon that idea right now. If you want to harm my child, you'll have to get rid of me first!”

“So, you've decided to take the difficult path, huh? Cecelia, whether you like it or not, you must agree. Your child's sole purpose of existence is to save my son's life! Bind her!” The woman ordered ruthlessly.

“Uh... mm...” Cecelia's distressed whimper could be heard from the other end of the line.

“Cecelia...” Avery longed for wings to fly instantly to Cecelia's side.

“Avery, listen,” Cecelia rushed to convey her message at lightning speed, “I am at Hyacinth Bay Hotel right now. Griselda is plotting to...”

Before she could finish, a loud bang echoed through the phone.

“Cecelia, Cecelia?” Avery anxiously redialed the number, but the line repeatedly indicated that the call couldn't get through.

Avery's heart was instantly consumed by a burning anxiety, sensing that something had gone wrong with Cecelia.

In the past, her impulsive nature might have driven her to rush off and find Cecelia without a second thought. However, after her near-death experience, she compelled herself to stay calm and composed.
