It would also confirm that they were still in the city, making a rescue more feasible.
But if no message came, it meant not only greater danger for the child but also increased difficulty in finding them.
At that tense moment, Skylar received a message.
[Come to the outskirts alone. If you bring anyone, your son dies.]
Her pupils shook slightly.
She shared the message with Yosef and told him she would go first, and asked him to bring backup later.
She also informed her family, telling them to stop searching for now.
The police were also notified. They suggested she take a few undercover officers for her safety.
Skylar refused. “She has accomplices hiding among us. If I bring people and she gets agitated, the child could be harmed. It’s not worth the risk.”
The police had no choice but to abandon the plan.
Although they couldn’t send anyone to follow Skylar, they suggested equipping her with a small device.
That way, if she were in danger, they could respond immediately.
Skylar agreed to wear a miniature camera. She drove alone, following the GPS directions to the designated location.
There were no buildings in sight. No people either.
She got out of the car.
Another message arrived. She followed the directions into the woods.
As she walked, she carefully observed her surroundings and sent the details to Yosef.
Meanwhile, inside a hut. Adam was tied

pillar. His face was dirty, his clothes wrinkled and disheveled. He was groggy and barely conscious.
He could sense bad people walking around him and talking. One of the voices sounded familiar.
But because he had been drugged, his mind was sluggish. He couldn’t figure out who it was.
Elianna stood with arms crossed. “Is everything I asked for ready?”
Her man replied, “Yes. It’s all ready.”
She said, “This time, I’ll ruin Skylar completely, I want her to be disgraced and die hated by everyone.”

Skylar’s face was icy. “You kidnapped Adam to lure me here. What do you want?”
“What do I want?” Elianna repeated bitterly, then burst into laughter. Tears rolled down her cheeks, but her gaze only grew colder.

She remembered the day of her engagement, when a scandal broke and the Campbell family broke off the engagement. She became the laughingstock of society.
The Campbell family cut off all support to the Stone family, which then became a target.
The Stone family bullied some small companies, which previously didn’t dare fight back because of the Campbell family. Now, they struck back hard.
The Stone family business teetered on the edge of collapse. In desperation, David sold her for three million dollars to an old pervert.
The old man had notorious fetishes. He’d had multiple wives. All of whom had died mysteriously and early.
No one wanted to marry him, and he remained single.
But David, for his own benefit, treated Elianna as a discarded pawn and forced her to marry that old man.
To make her obey, they drugged her, put a wedding dress on her, and forced her into the marriage.
Elianna suffered unspeakable torment. Her body was covered in injuries.
She cried and begged to go home, but no one came to save her.
Even Rebecca visited once, but she didn’t dare help either. She only cried while slipping Elianna some money.
Elianna took the money.
