Chapter 341 How Could It Be You?
Lillian followed Alexander back to the room in confusion and asked, "What's going on?"
Alexander took a travel bag out of the closet and said to her, "I have to go to Country N; my mother has encountered some trouble there."
"What happened to her?" Lillian asked in shock.
Alexander quickly packed a few changes of clothes and said, "The specifics remain unclear; I will go there to check on the situation. Do not worry; it’s nothing serious."
"Okay, be careful out there." Seeing that he didn't want to say more, Lillian didn't press further.
Seeing they come downstairs, Leah, who hadn't left yet, saw Alexander with the travel bag and asked in confusion, "Alexander, are you going on a business trip?"
"Behave yourself at home for the next few days. I'm going abroad for a few days and will be back soon," Alexander said to her before hurriedly leaving.
Lillian stood at the door and waved at the departing car.
"Alexander! Give me a ride to the office!" Leah came out with her shoes, but it was too late. "So stingy; he could have dropped me off on the way to the airport."
Lillian said, "You can drive to work for the next few days."
"Guess I have no choice." Leah shrugged helplessly and walked towards the garage. She then said to Lillian, "Lillian, I have plans tonight, so don't wait for me for dinner."
"No one cares about you anymore; you're free," Lillian murmured, then replied loudly, "Alright, I know."
Alexander took a private jet to Country N. At the villa, several men in black saw him arrive and respectfully greeted, "Mr. Sinclair."
"My mother disappeared from the villa?" Alexander took off his coat, exuding a cold aura, and asked in a steady voice.
Peter Morgan stepped forward and said to Alexander, "Mr. Sinclair, Mrs. Samantha Sinclair came back last night complaining of a headache after drinking too much, and then she went to her room to sleep. This morning, the maid went to call her for breakfast and found her missing."
"Did the surveillance footage show where she went?" Alexander glared at Peter and asked coldly.
"The surveillance was disrupted for a few minutes, and it was during those minutes that Mrs. Samantha Sinclair disappeared." As the head of security, Peter bore an inescapable responsibility for such an incident. "Mr. Sinclair, it was my negligence that caused this. Please punish me!" he admitted his mistake with his head down.
"Do you think you can escape responsibility? Once this is resolved, I'll deal with all of you." Just as Alexander finished speaking, someone came in and reported, "Mr. Sinclair, we've found Mrs. Samantha Sinclair!"
"Where is she?" Alexander stood up immediately, asking urgently.
"The people who returned said she was found in an abandoned factory, and she was kidnapped!"
Alexander's heart tightened as he asked, "Is she okay?"
"Not very well, but it's not life-threatening."
Alexander was already striding out. "Peter, get the car ready!"
"Mr. Sinclair, please wait at home for news. I'll take people to rescue Mrs. Samantha Sinclair." Peter said.
"No, I want to see who did this." Alexander's eyes were filled with anger, and his whole body exuded a fierce determination.
In the outskirts, at the abandoned factory.
Samantha lay on the ground, her hair in disarray, bruises marring the corners of her eyes and mouth, her lips cracked and trembling soundlessly. It had been three days without food, having consumed only half a bottle of water; her strength had long since waned. The last rays of the setting sun shone on her face as on a pair of black boots in front of her. She didn't need to look to know who it was.
"Amy, what more do you want?" Samantha stared at a spot, a cold smile forming at the corner of her mouth.
"Guess," Amy said smugly, lifting Samantha's chin with the tip of her shoe. "Aren't you supposed to be formidable? Guess how else I might torment you!"
"You lunatic!" Samantha turned her face forcefully and cursed.
Amy laughed, squatted down, and gripped Samantha's chin tightly, saying with hatred, "You call me a lunatic? Yes, I am a lunatic! It's all because of you that I became a lunatic! Samantha, don't you feel any guilt? Aren't you afraid of retribution when you sleep at night?"
"I don't feel guilty!" Samantha said firmly, "I only regret not killing you and Shae back then!"
"Samantha, you didn't agree with me being with Alexander, thinking I wasn't good enough for him. And now? Lillian is just an ordinary person!" Amy said.
"It wasn't an excuse; being with Alexander would only harm him. On the contrary, Lillian can help Alexander! Between Alexander's safety and family honor, I would always choose the former!" Samantha laughed and said, "Lillian has been very capable, giving the Sinclair family twin sons, and bringing honor to the family!"
"You're still trying to deceive me with that!" Amy, provoked by her words, slapped Samantha, making her dizzy.
"You ruined my relationship with Alexander! I wish I could kill you to vent my anger!" Amy screamed madly, kicking Samantha repeatedly.
Samantha broke out in a cold sweat in pain but bit her lip and didn't make a sound. "Amy, you're really stupid. What did Alexander ever find in you?" she wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth with her hand and sneered, "Even without my interference, you and Alexander were destined to break up."
"Impossible! He loved me! Without you, we would have been married, and our children might be grown by now." Amy, in a fit of hysteria, found herself both outraged and agitated by Samantha's words.
"Before the car accident, weren't you always fighting? " Samantha looked at her sideways. "Amy, you and Alexander were never a good match. He would have gotten tired of you eventually!"
"No." Amy covered her ears and screamed, "That's not true; you're lying!"
Then several black cars stopped outside the factory. After getting out of the car, Alexander heard Amy's screams coming from inside.
"Mr. Sinclair!"As Peter called out, Alexander was already running inside.
Seeing strangers intruding, several burly me immediately engaged in a fight. Soon, all of them were subdued by Alexander's men.
Alexander walked inside and paused when he saw Amy dragging the injured and disheveled Samantha. He asked in shock, "How could it be you?"
Alexander had thought that the people who kidnapped Samantha were Beatrice and Blake or other enemies he had made in business, but he never expected it to be Amy.
"Alexander, don't come any closer. If you take another step, I'll kill your mother right in front of you!" Amy shouted as she held a knife to Samantha's throat.
