The True Heiress is the Reserved Fiancé's Exclusive Memory

Chapter 853 - 878: Never Lose Courage (8)

Taking a taxi and then hitching a ride on a long-haul truck, yes, he must find a way to leave Cloud Capital tonight.

Reece Lee was firm in this thought, glanced up at the carriage.

He steeled his heart.

He planned to leave Cloud Capital and call the police in the middle of the night. To ensure that he, the kid, and the kid’s mother could leave smoothly, he couldn’t expose this place too early, so he’ll have to put the girl through some trouble for a while.

Thinking this way, Reece Lee breathed a sigh of relief.

Not long after—

Ron King returned, carrying two plastic lunch boxes.

Reece Lee and Ford, like usual, stood by and ate fried noodles. Just after taking a few bites, the phone rang again.

He answered the call, his expression changed, and he dropped the lunch box directly to the ground, urgently saying, "No, Zara suddenly fainted, I have to go back quickly."

"Now?" Ron King asked in surprise.

"Isn’t it true, the kid’s condition is getting worse!"

"But we agreed that three of us would do this together."

"I can’t gamble with the kid’s life."

Ron King frowned irritably and said in a deep voice, "It’s fine if you don’t want to do it now, but you’re using your car, so I’ll give you one million."

Those words were threatening in nature.

Reece Lee acted indifferently and said, "Give me whatever you want, I need money to treat the kid’s illness, let’s not say more, my mom’s home alone waiting, I’ll head out first."

Ron King nodded.

Reece Lee hurriedly left.

Ford was exasperated, "Uncle Ron, you just let him go like that?"

"What else could I do?" Ron King suddenly felt agitated and waved his hand, "Let me think this through."

He was a rough man, and having lived a life of ease and laziness for too long recently, he suddenly got greedy for money, hatching such a bold plan.

Plans like kidnapping needed collaboration to bolster courage.

Right now—

Ron King glanced at the overly confident Ford and felt that he was unreliable, then turned around to make two phone calls.

One to Charlotte Chester, the other to Zuri Ginger.

Clenching his teeth, he confessed that he had kidnapped Mia Ginger. Charlotte Chester was stunned on the phone for a moment, asked for the address, and then hung up the phone. Zuri Ginger did the same, adding she’d be there soon and telling Ron King not to rush to call Aiden Jiang and the others.

Meanwhile—

Reece Lee abandoned the van he had driven at the roadside, flagged down a taxi, and rushed home.

He called while in the car to inform his mom to quickly pack up.

They would leave overnight.

Koa Jackson had just arrived at Cloud Capital University.

Although he didn’t leave work late, he got caught in traffic and couldn’t reach Mia Ginger by phone, assuming it was just a dead battery.

When he returned to Blossom Quarter and found no one there, he naturally became anxious.

He was also aware of what was happening online, as he had been on the phone non-stop after work. He knew someone was handling the online news, and Aiden Jiang had caught the last flight back in the afternoon; ultimately, there were many issues ongoing.

But—

No matter what, he really only cared about Mia Ginger.

Koa Jackson pursed his lips in thought, parked along the tree-lined road, and quickly strode to the dormitory building, not going up, and instead shouted in the direction of Mia Ginger’s dorm, "Mia Ginger, Mia Ginger!"

His voice was loud enough to attract much attention.

After a few hours that afternoon, the events online had already spread throughout the university, especially in the New Media Institute; everyone practically knew about it.

Many girls came out to the balcony to look at him.

Seeing him, they couldn’t help but whisper and speculate.
