After some time, Queena woke up and she went downstairs, but Mango was nowhere to be found.
At first, she thought that Mango was resting in the guest room, so Queena did not pay it much heed and she went to take a look in the kitchen. However, Queena found that the kitchen was in total disarray.
No matter how she looked at it, it did not seem accidental.
Then, Queena's heart fell into the pit of her stomach and she quickly ran to Mango's room.
Alas, Mango's room was empty, and even the bed was made up neatly. It was obvious that the bed was untouched.
At that, Queena began to feel uneasy. She searched everywhere determinedly, but she could not find Mango anywhere.
Then, Queena began to tremble and her uneasiness increased with every passing second.
After that, Queena replayed the security footage and she saw that Andrea had taken Mango away. Furthermore, Queena's eyes narrowed at the needle in Andrea's hand.
"D*mn it!"
Queena was so livid that she trembled all over. Then, she immediately called Lawrence.
"Where's Andrea?" Meanwhile, Lawrence was very surprised that Queena always took the initiative to call him these days. Before he had time to react, he heard Queena's cold voice and he was stunned for a moment.
"Andrea has gone out and she hasn't come back yet. She said that she went to see you. Isn't she over there at your place?"
The fiery temper of Queena's heart blazed up at once.
"I remember telling you to watch her no matter what so that she would have time for her face to be healed during this period of time. Why do you always ignore what I have to say?"
"What's wrong? Queena, did something happen?"
Only then did Lawrence realize that there was something wrong with Queena.
Throughout the years, Queena seldom lost her temper and she was cold and indifferent to everyone. At first, Lawrence thought that this was her personality, but then he found out that Queena had closed off her heart and she couldn't be enthusiastic towards anyone.
How they met was actually a funny story.
Back then, Queena was drunken and she mistook Lawrence for someone else. So, they had a one night stand.
Unfortunately, Queena fell pregnant after that one nightstand. Furthermore, the doctor said that Queena's body was weak and her life might be in danger if she aborted the baby. So, Queena gave birth to Andrea but she immediately gave her to Lawrence.
At the time, Lawrence was delighted that he had a daughter and he assumed that Queena would marry him. However, he was disappointed when he found out Queena had sworn off marriage for the rest of her life and she refused to marry him.
Nevertheless, Lawrence had watched over Queena all these years. As long as he could see her and that he could have a glance from Queena in return, then he would be satisfied.
Even after so many years, Queena still lacked any interest in Andrea and she was cold towards her.
Now, Queena had taken the initiative to call him several times to ask about Andrea. Therefore, this made Lawrence realize that something was wrong.
"What happened? Did something happen to Andrea?"
At that, Queena nearly lost control of her anger. She said in a low voice, "You better find Andrea right now, or else I have no idea what the consequences will be. Lawrence, if you can't even discipline your daughter after so many years have passed, what else can you do?"
After that, she hung up the phone.
Where would Andrea take Mango to?
Queena had always thought that Andrea was just reckless and arrogant, so she would not do anything too outrageous. Thus, she did not take it seriously when Andrea was so hostile towards Mango.
After all, no mother in the world would think that her daughter was born evil.
However, now she was a little uneasy.
Andrea said earlier that she liked Nathaniel and she wanted to marry him. Then, would she be willing to harm Mango over that?
Queena then ran out quickly and reviewed the district's surveillance. Then, she found out Andrea had dragged Mango onto the car. Unfortunately, there was a video blind spot in the back, so she couldn't see anything after that.
Queena was very anxious and she called Andrea but her phone was turned off. Obviously, her daughter did not want to answer her call.
In the end, Queena had no choice but to call Nathaniel.
"Nathaniel, Mango has gone missing."
"What did you just say?"
At the time, Nathaniel was about to wrap up the issue at the construction site. As long as the suppliers were willing to admit that Abyss had instructed them to slander him, he would have enough evidence to put Abyss in a difficult situation. However, just at this time that Queena was telling him about Mango's disappearance.
"What's going on?"
"How about you come over to my place?"
Queena did not know what to say to Nathaniel right now.
Indeed, she felt ashamed and somewhat worried. Andrea was indeed her daughter, and it was very likely that Mango was also her daughter. What could she do if Andrea hurt Mango?
Then, Nathaniel hung up the phone before he took the keys and he frantically ran to the car.
"Mr. Ye, what should we do next?"
Thomas had never seen Nathaniel so nervous before.
Well, it was not the case.
He had seen Nathaniel was panicked like this five years ago when Madam got into trouble.
Did something happen to Madam?
Thomas suddenly became worried, but he could not leave. After all, someone had to hold down the fort after Nathaniel had left.
Nathaniel was certain that he had passed many red lights as he drove right up to Queena's house.
"Where's Mango?"
When Nathaniel entered, he spoke directly as he could not be bothered with respect and etiquette right now.
Then, Queena sent the district surveillance video to Nathaniel.
When Nathaniel saw the video, his entire demeanor became gloomy and he exuded a murderous chill.
"Andrea Yu!"
Nathaniel somehow recognized Andrea.
At first, this woman declared her intention to pursue him, but Nathaniel did not take it to heart. After he knew that Dylan fancied Andrea, he ignored some petty actions of this woman. Furthermore, he did not want to have anything to do with Andrea after he found out that she was Queena's daughter and she was probably Mango's sister.
However, he did not expect that Andrea would take Mango away from him!
Nathaniel's hands were tightly gripped together.
