CHAPTER 1039 READY TO GO

CHAPTER 1039 READY TO GOColton gazed at Nicole's departing figure as his dark eyes carried a hint of peculiarity.
Without much deliberation, he pulled out his phone and dialed Beryl's number.
"Pack up immediately and bring some professionals with you. We're leaving the country tonight,"
Colton stated firmly and quickly, his tone exuding unwavering authority.
Beryl realized something was amiss and hastily inquired, "Did something happen?"
"Well, Wendy has been kidnapped. The details are still unclear, and Julian is probably occupied. I'll
lead the team myself, and we'll head over together," Colton explained succinctly.
Beryl felt a thunderous jolt as if struck by lightning. He tightly grasped his hand. No wonder Colton
sounds so grave. It turns out that Wendy has been kidnapped.
Wendy, the beloved member of the Gardner Family, knew all of Colton's buddies. In her younger days,
her words were full of sweetness, and she affectionately referred to them as her "big brothers." They
showered her with endless affection and attention.
"Damn it, which reckless scoundrel did that? How dare they kidnap Wendy?" Beryl exclaimed, his
anxiety evident. "Alright, I understand. I'll gather the team immediately."
Having watched her grow up since childhood, Beryl started feeling flustered upon hearing that Wendy
had been kidnapped.
"Also, notify Dominic and ask him to prepare as well." "Dominic? Is it really that serious this time? Is he also being mobilized?" Beryl expressed his
astonishment. Dominic oversaw the arms business, so if they were reaching out to him, it meant the
situation was quite significant.
"It seems it's not a simple matter. If they were after money, they would have called me directly. Wendy
has been kidnapped for an entire night, and I haven't received any news. I suspect they're after a
person," Colton mused.
Beryl's expression grew serious, and he nodded. "Alright, I understand. I'll take care of it."
After concluding the conversation, he promptly hung up the phone.
Nicole hastily returned just as he concluded the call, her dress appearing slightly disheveled. Despite
the rush, she managed to keep her high heels on, and her fair face was flushed from the brisk run.
Having caught her breath, she gazed at Colton with a sense of urgency and inquired, "How's
everything going? Have you made any progress?"
"We haven't found anything yet. We're heading abroad to investigate," Colton replied.
"Okay, I'll go with you," Nicole asserted.
He didn't refuse and accompanied her back home to change clothes. They also dropped Hayden off at
the Gardner Residence, simply stating that the two of them were going on their honeymoon without
mentioning Wendy's kidnapping. Anna had a gentle disposition, and if she found out about Wendy's abduction, she would undoubtedly
be filled with worry.
Without dwelling on it, she observed their anxious demeanor with a smile. "You two seem to be in quite
a hurry. Just after attending Old Mrs. Gould's birthday banquet, you're already setting off on your
honeymoon."
To avoid arousing suspicion, Colton maintained a calm expression on his face. He gently wrapped his
arm around Nicole's slender waist and said with a smile, "Well, it's a rare chance now that Nicole has
fully recovered. I thought of taking her out to explore and help her relax."
Anna nodded in understanding, waving her hand dismissively. "Alright, off you go. Enjoy yourselves.
You can leave Hayden with me; I'll take care of him."
After reassuring Anna, Colton and Nicole departed. The Gardner Corporation had its own private plane,
and a group of people had already gathered near the aircraft. Beryl had brought his team along.
Beryl quickly approached and informed Colton after spotting him. "I've already called Dominic. He
received the message, but it might take some time on his end."
novelbin"Alright, there's no need for him to make a big move right now, so as not to tip off the kidnappers,"
Colton responded, pondering the situation.
