Love Contract novel Chapter 290

"Woo! Woo! Woo!" When the call ended abruptly, Elissa could no longer hear William's voice, making her cry even harder.

With an impatient wave of a hand, Dixon asked one of his men to drag Elissa forward.

With a loud bang, the man rudely kicked the door of the warehouse open and threw the little girl inside.

"Elissa!" cried out Alick. As he was about to run to his sister, Ray took a step ahead of him and held Elissa. This caused the two kids to fell heavily on the ground.

"Woo! Woo!" Elissa cried as she lay on Ray's body.

"It's okay," comforted Ray, but his back hurt from the fall.

"Ray and Elissa, get up!" With his dirty little hands, Alick pulled the two kids up. Trembling, the three kids hugged each other.

"Oh no!" Ray suddenly exclaimed in silence, "My watch!"

Alick and Elissa looked at Ray with wide eyes. "Ray, what's wrong with your watch?"

"It broke just now." Ray touched the shattered screen on his watch and frowned. "It's broken."

"You can buy a new one with the same design when we get out of here," Elissa suggested with tears rolling from her eyes.

"But this is very important." Ray blinked and whispered, "This watch can tell my mother where we are."

"Really?" All of a sudden, the two kids' eyes lit up with hope.

Ray responded with a nod. Looking at the broken watch, he added, "But it's broken now. I don't know if we can get in touch with my mother anymore."

"Ray, have a try!" asked Alick in a hurry.

Ray stared at his watch for a while and nodded heavily. "I've come up with an idea. I'll try it later. Don't speak, okay?"

"Okay!"

Ray looked around the place to find a clean spot to sit down. As he sat down, he stared at his watch and turned the knob. Just as the three kids were about to do something remarkable, the door of the warehouse opened again. Several people rushed in and took the three kids out.

"What are you doing?"

"Let us go!" The three kids cried and shouted, but the men remained unmoved. They were thrown back to the truck where they had just ridden.

A group of well-trained men got on the truck and left quickly.

Ten minutes later.

"William, don't be impulsive. Just trust us and buy some time,"

Archer hurriedly told William through the phone. He was now outside the warehouse ten kilometers away from Western Sea Trestle, the place where the three children were being kept. As he did so, he took out his gun, and quickly followed Aisha to survey the place inside.

With a serious look on her face, Aisha leaned back against the wall while holding her gun and commanded in an orderly manner. With a wave of her hand, two bodyguards entered the warehouse first. Carefully, the group of vigilantes inspected the place thoroughly.

"Nobody was found."

"It's empty."

"Boss, no one is here."

A few minutes later, everyone gathered in front of the empty warehouse, confused.

"There are traces of wheel tracks and cigarette butts on the outside," Archer analyzed. "They must have been here earlier."

"Didn't we come here following the GPS in Ray's watch?" Barry asked worriedly. "If they came here, why did they leave? Is it because..."

"Don't think too much," interrupted Jazlyn. "Those people won't be so stupid enough to kill the hostages."

"Right." Aisha nodded in agreement. She then looked at Selah's phone confusingly. It seemed that the red dot on the tracker had stopped at the warehouse.

"Why isn't the red dot moving?" Lucas asked as he went closer to take a look at the phone. "Are they hiding here?"

"It's impossible. We've searched everywhere," Jazlyn remarked with a frown. "Did they find the watch and throw it somewhere here?"

"Let's look for the watch first." Archer waved his hand and the group of bodyguards scattered around to search the place again.

Da. Da.

While they were busy, Selah's phone, the one used to track the kids' location, emitted two high -pitched sounds.

Beep. Da. Da.

After a few seconds, the phone produced the same sounds again. "What is it?" Lucas turned around and asked. The others also stared at the phone in confusion.

"Shush!" Seeing the serious look on Aisha's face, Jazlyn immediately stopped them from talking.

Aisha frowned and did not answer. Holding her breath, she listened to the phone and asked, "Is anyone there?"

Da! Da! Da! Beep!

"Help!" The phone vibrated again. Seeing the confused and puzzled faces of her companions, Aisha deciphered the codes for them. The people around her gasped in surprise.

"We were kidnapped."

"Mom, are you there?"

Ray...

Barry breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the watch was still in Ray's hand and the children were all fine. Even though he felt happy and somewhat hopeful, he was shocked. Ray was only six years old. How could he know such complicated codes?

Aisha deciphered the meaning of the sounds on the phone as soon as they received the codes. The others listened quietly and attentively, not even daring to breathe heavily.

In response, Aisha tapped the phone with her index finger and sent a message to Ray.

Beep. Da. Beep. Beep. Beep. Da. Beep. Beep. Beep. Da."

"Where are you?" Aisha asked.

She continued to communicate with Ray, hoping to obtain more information.

"We are locked in the room and we can only hear the sound of the ship."
