The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 176

In the underground garage of the care center.

Rosalynn was in a hurry last night and only roughly remembered where she had parked.

It took her quite a while to find her car.

At this point, Wayne's nagging call came in again.

Rosalynn picked it up. "President Silverman, I just found my car, can you stop rushing me?"

Wayne snorted coldly, not hiding his displeasure at all.

"It's already late, there's no way you can make it back in time for dinner."

Rosalynn: "Then can I..."

"No!" Wayne interrupted without letting her finish.

Rosalynn chuckled lightly. Watching Wayne lose his temper once in a while was somewhat amusing.

"What do you feel like eating?" This time, Wayne softened his tone and said, "I'll order it from the restaurant and have it delivered directly to our apartment."

She must have been tired after such a trip back. If she went to the restaurant again, she must be even more tired.

"Whatever." Rosalynn said while unlocking the car.

"It can't be 'whatever', tell me what you like to eat!" Wayne unhappily said.

Rosalynn was a bit helpless.

Just as she was about to name a couple of dishes, someone suddenly pounced at her from behind.

They moved incredibly fast, covering her mouth and nose with a smelly white cloth before she could even react.

Her phone smashed heavily on the ground, and was crushed to pieces by the attacker.

Before losing consciousness, all Rosalynn could think of was the baby inside her belly.

Wayne was waiting for Rosalynn to order food. Suddenly he heard some commotion on the other side of the line, followed by a shrill scream, and the call was disconnected.

"Rosa!"

Wayne stood up and shouted out loud.

He then quickly dialed again, only to hear the cold disconnected tone on the other side.

"President Silverman, what happened?"

Sitting in the co-pilot, Sean looked back ignorantly.

Wayne tried again and again to call Rosalynn, all in vain. Remembering the commotion he heard just now, his face darkened to the extreme.

"Call the care center immediately and have them seal off the place! No person or vehicle is allowed in or out!"

He then quickly found a number and dialed it. The phone kept ringing, but nobody picked up.

Wayne cursed with frustration.

"Head to the care center!"

Rosalynn felt groggy, her hands and feet tied up.

Was she in the trunk of a car? The surroundings were bumpy.

She curled up, instinctively trying to protect her belly.

Had she been kidnapped? Who'd done it?

Maddie? Or was it Heatherway?

Lately, she had been quite aggressive, coupled with the position of the Energy Corporation president, she must have become a thorn in many people's sides.

After what felt like an eternity of bumpy riding, the car finally stopped.

A moment later, the trunk was opened.
