Chapter 520 Return To Mainland
Chapter 520 Return To Mainland
Max had sent her almost twenty videos and 50 photos. Still, she couldn't find her mother's face in any of them, not even her mother's familiar face she often used when disguising herself.
"You didn't find any? Try looking for similarities in every video and picture," Max said.
Scarlett tried looking again. After Max had told her about the similarity, she instantly spotted it.
"Oh my God, Max, you're right. This is really suspicious..." She felt goosebumps all over her body as she gazed at an unfamiliar woman who had appeared in almost every video she watched. And also in the picture. Her face wasn't closed up, but in every photo and video, she appeared to convey a silent message, as if she were sending a code to someone.
"Max, listen... Starting from now, use this woman's face to locate her on this island. Please, do it faster," Scarlett said, her voice trembling.
"Yes..." Max's voice faded.
After the connection with Max ended, she looked at Xander, who stood behind her. "You see the woman. I guess... That's my mother using her new disguise. And, can you spot a few men walking beside her?"
"Mmm, I saw it," Xander said as he pulled her into his arms before continuing, "They are the ones who have detained her..."
"I know. Xander, I'm afraid they will harm her. That's why I can't let Allaistar know we already know about him," she said, looking up to meet Xander's gaze. "Please tell me my mother is fine. She's okay..."
"My mother-in-law, she is fine. Don't be afraid, babe. We will find her. She will be reunited with you, with us," Xander said, tightening his hug to calm her anxiety about losing her mother.
"Yes, Scarlett, no worries. Aunty Rosalie is not a simple woman. She's just like you, not easily defeated," Seven said. Seven sat at his desk, watching the video Max had sent Scarlett. He was surprised by what he saw; the woman was indeed suspicious. She always looked back at every camera as if she were conveying something through her eyes.
Scarlett released Xander's embrace and turned to see Seven. "Brother, who's in ships one and two?"
"Nine and Twelve lead them. In every ship, there are four people, including the leader. Why are you asking?" Seven inquired.
"Send them that picture right away. Ask them to locate this woman," she paused when she noticed something. She didn't see Rex. "Where's brother Rex?"
"He's in town. He drove there five minutes before you guys arrived."
"Send him the picture, ask him to look around the town again. And I'll go to the town too. We'll help Rex find the woman..."
"Roger that!" Seven immediately did what Scarlett asked of him.
"Thank you," she said and left the computer room.
However, just before she walked outside, Max's voice could be heard again in her earbuds. "Scarlett, they moved that woman to the mainland."
Scarlett's step abruptly stopped, "Did you find her new location?"
"Not yet. I'll let you know if I find something."
"Max, when did they move that woman away from this island?" Hearing Max's answer, Scarlett's knees suddenly felt so weak that she almost fell to the ground.
"Baby?" Xander caught Scarlett's hand and made her stand straight. "What happened?" he asked in shock. Hearing Xander's loud voice, Seven ran outside and was surprised to see they were still in the house.
"Huh!? Are you guys still here? Does something happen? Why does Scarlett look so pale!?" Seven was worried to see Scarlett's expression. She looked like an ER patient.
Scarlett didn't reply to them; instead, she asked Seven to call back all the people in the field and stop their search for her mother because they had already moved her.
Seven was confused by Scarlett's orders; however, seeing how serious her expression was now, he immediately nodded and returned to the computer room to contact the other team.
"Xander," Scarlett turned to look at him. "Capture that bastard. We'll fly there. I need to speak to him."
"Okay," Xander said and made a call. As she saw Xander move to the corner, Scarlett dragged her feet to the sofa in the living room and threw her weak body onto the sofa to calm her mind and heart. She can't be calm after hearing her mother on the mainland and still in Allaistar's grip.
She slowly closed her eyes and prayed silently, 'God, please keep my mom safe...' After she felt a little better, she also made a call to Simon. She needed to talk to him about her plan to detain Allaistar Parker.
However, before she makes a call, she sends Allaistar's sex party video footage to Simon. She wanted her brother to agree with her immediately. Her time was running thin.
"Brother Simon, have you watched what I sent you?" She asked calmly, but Simon, on the other end, was confused, but he was still playing the video on his laptop.
"Little sister, you're already married, but you still keep a video like this? Why did you send it to me?" he asked, confused.
"Oh, please!" Scarlett rolled her eyes. "Take a closer look at the man in that video."
"Bloody hell! Why the hell..." Scarlett took her cell phone away from her ear when she heard Simon cursing on the other end. This was the first time she had listened to her calm brother so angry.
"Sister, I will capture this despicable bastard. This man can't be forgiven!" Simon's anger could no longer be contained. He wanted to confront this man with his own hands. How dare he treat his aunt like that? Having wild nights like a bastard even though he's the husband of a princess in this kingdom!?
...
"Brother, Xander has already sent his people to capture him. But I will detain him until I find my mother, so that man won't return to the Royal City until I locate my mother..."
Simon was silent for a moment, trying to calm his anger. After some time, he said, "Okay, but make sure he doesn't escape."
"He won't. If he tries, I will break his leg..."
