Three Treasures: Spoiled Wife Goes Wild-Chapter 1724: Kidnapping

"Not only that, but I also noticed you glanced behind us several times..."

Upon hearing Charlotte Thompson’s words, Annie Anne took a deep breath, deciding that there was no point in hiding anymore.

She nodded and said, "I did it to shake off those who were tracking us."

"Tracking?"

Charlotte Thompson’s voice suddenly turned serious, "Are they paparazzi?"

But Annie Anne shook her head, then a cold smile appeared at her lips.

"Those are Oliver Hudson’s people," Annie Anne raised her eyebrows and, upon noticing Charlotte Thompson’s inexplicable expression, slowly spoke.

"Oliver Hudson wishes he could lock me inside, and now that I’m out, of course, he’d send people to monitor and trail me constantly. If you didn’t know, you might think I was some heinous criminal."

After hearing Annie Anne’s words, Charlotte Thompson involuntarily cast her gaze toward the alley’s entrance.

Rather than Oliver Hudson sending people to track her, it might be more accurate to say he was arranging people behind the scenes to protect Annie Anne.

Annie Anne seemed to instantly perceive what Charlotte Thompson was thinking. She slightly moved her somewhat sore arms and glanced at Charlotte.

"Do you think he’s actually sending people to protect me quietly?"

Without waiting for Charlotte Thompson to respond, Annie Anne continued on her own:

"Protect? That’s a nice way to put it. When he locked me in that dark, sunless basement before, he told me the same thing. When he privately took Annie from your place, he said the same."

Listening to Annie Anne’s increasingly cold tone, Charlotte Thompson stepped forward and held her somewhat chilly palm.

"Weren’t we supposed to go to the restaurant for dinner? If we don’t go now, we might have to queue up."

Charlotte Thompson didn’t want to continue this topic.

Annie Anne felt the same way.

The two of them turned out of the alley and headed to the restaurant as per the navigation.

However, what Charlotte Thompson and Annie Anne didn’t expect at all was that there were other surprises waiting for them outside the alley.

...

Charlotte Thompson looked at the man in black driving ahead, and despite having chanted to herself countless times to stay calm, the current scene still made her involuntarily tremble.

She and Annie Anne had been kidnapped.

Just as they stepped out of the alley, they were suddenly knocked unconscious from behind, and when Charlotte Thompson woke up, she found herself and Annie Anne tightly tied up and thrown into a van heading to an unknown destination. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Though Charlotte Thompson’s eyes were not blindfolded, the van’s windows weren’t transparent, allowing only a blurred view of the outside rushing by, leaving her unable to determine where they were being taken.

Charlotte Thompson feared that her staring was too conspicuous. If the two driving noticed, thus she could only shrink her neck and turn to check on Annie Anne’s condition.

Seeing that Annie Anne was still unconscious, Charlotte Thompson’s face grew somber.

She carefully shifted her body sideways, attempting to touch Annie Anne with her arm, but even such a trivial motion taxed her completely restrained strength.

Fortunately, Annie Anne gradually regained consciousness at this moment, and once aware, she quickly discerned the situation she and Charlotte Thompson were in.

Her expression inevitably showed some panic, but she soon quieted down.
