Still, he ensured Raegan’s care was constant. He arranged for four nurses, who
worked in shifts, to tend to her around the clock.
These nurses did more than just provide care. They kept a close eye on Raegan
and reported back to Mitchel on everything from her fluid intake to her dietary
habits.
In his office, Mitchel stared at a photograph of Raegan’s sleeping face, which
was secretly captured by one of the nurses. She looked so serene.
A pang of bitterness welled up in him as he realized she might never look that
way with him.
When Matteo entered, he found Mitchel near the window. Mitchel Looked
exhausted and lonely, and Matteo’s heart sank at the sight of this.
Mitchel, without turning around, inquired, “How did the investigation go?”
Angela's Library
“The kidnappers’ escape went awry,” Matteo answered.
“Their vehicle went off a cliff, and then the car exploded. There were no
survivors.
We're still digging into whether the target was the Murray family or Miss Murray
herself.”
With the kidnappers dead, the investigation had gone to an dead end.
“Anything else?” Mitchel queried with a cold and expressionless face.
“The whereabouts of Miss Lloyd are still unknown, but we've located two
kidnappers who were related to your wife's kidnapping. Do you want to see
them?”
A flicker of malice crossed Mitchel's expression, and he ordered, “Set it up right
now.”
In the dim light of a suburban underground garage, the heavy iron door groaned
open, releasing a wave of foul air.
Matteo coughed against the stench. He walked forward and found the two
vagrants, whose faces were covered with hoods, had soiled themselves due to
the fright.
With a grimace, Matteo pulled the hoods down their heads even more, ensuring
they didn’t see anything.
The only sound for those two vagrants was the echo of approaching footsteps.
They bowed repeatedly and pleaded, “Sir, please let us go.
We're just poor and homeless. Why are we here?’
Bang! A sudden, violent crack cut the air.
The vagrants’ knees were ruthlessly shattered by the bodyguards using baseball
bats.
“Ah! Why would you do that!”
The gruesome crunch of bone reverberated off the walls, along with screams of
agony.
Mitchel stepped closer and coldly asked, “Now, do you understand why you two
are here?”
Gripped by terror and desperate to avoid another blow, the fat vagrant blurted
out, “Is this about that job we took a few days ago?”
