Married a Secret Billionaire
Chapter 1513

"Nothing!" He smiled reassuringly at Nala, determined to take her away from this place.

A loud bang came from the factory door, followed by the distinct sound of high heels clicking on the ground.

Alexander swiftly signaled Nala, who promptly pretended to be unconscious on the floor. He leaned against the wall and closed his eyes.

"Is this the child?" Bianca's tone was commanding.

Standing behind her, Brake grunted, "Yes."

Bianca took a few steps closer, carefully inspecting the child in the dim light. Suddenly, her expression shifted.

"Is this... the young heiress of the Chriss family?"

Drake was dumbfounded. When he had abducted the child, he did not know her family's identity.

Bianca sneered. "Dickinson, I instructed you to fetch the Hamerton child, not the Chriss one! And you claim you didn't deceive me?"

"Well..." Drake scratched his head. "Ms. Bianca, your goal is to pin in on Lena, right? It doesn't matter who we kidnap! As long as we have the child, she's implicated in human trafficking!"

This statement not only enlightened Bianca but also resonated with Alexander.

"Fine." Bianca took a deep breath and uttered, "Keep a close watch on this girl. I'll contact you!"

The Chriss family was in turmoil.

Elijah blamed Kasey for Nala's disappearance, while Kasey lamented that none of this would have happened if Elijah hadn't been involved with other women.

"Stop accusing me! You know very well how people falsely accused me of infidelity before! I've been faithful to you all these years!"

"It takes two to tango! If you're innocent, why do people keep accusing you?"

Just a few days ago, they had presented a facade of a harmonious family to the world. Now, they hurled hurtful words at each other. Lena was also anxious about Nala. Chris had quietly mobilized his contacts to trace Nala's whereabouts.

"Don't worry, Lenny," he reassured her. "Kidnappers often target young children like this for ransom. I believe they'll contact us soon. "Tell Mr. Chriss not to involve the police just yet. We don't want to tip off the kidnappers-they might harm Nala out of desperation!"

Lena nodded. Despite her anxiety, she remained calmer than Elijah and Kasey.

"I've already advised him the same. I think there are two possibilities for Nala's disappearance: someone Mr. Chriss offended in the business world or his father-in-law's political opponents." Chris patted her head.

"I have friends in the police force, and I've spoken to them. They'll keep a close watch. The ports, airports, and major roads out of Centrolis are all under surveillance. If anything happens, we'll know. The chance of Nala leaving Centrolis is slim."

"Okay." Lena bit her lip, then hesitated momentarily before revealing the truth to Chris.

"Chris... Alexander, he's missing too."

"What?" Chris was taken aback. "You suspect these two incidents are related?"

Lena lowered her eyes, saying nothing.

"But Alexander is just a child!"

Lena replied gravely, "Adults can sometimes manipulate children."

Chris's heart sank as he understood her implication. Since the night she slapped her, he had sensed something was amiss about her.

He gazed into her eyes and asked, "Lenny, what are you trying to say? Is there something you're keeping from me?"
