From Pitiful to Powerful: The Concealed Heir Elevation

Chapter Forty-nine

Later that day, at seven o'clock in Richard's mansion, Brian sat under a gazebo near the swimming pool with Melanie and Charlene. Dalton was inside the mansion.

"Wait hold on." Charlene held up her hand after listening to Brian's hypothesis of Mr. Jim's departure. "What makes you think he was kidnapped?"

"I just said it. It's unusual for Mr. Jim to leave without informing us." Brian said.

"Maybe he forgot or something else happened."

"It's been a month and nothing. Trust me, Charlene. Something is up. Mr. Jim would have called us unless something happened."

"And you think he's been kidnapped?"

"Well...considering the current crisis going on in our city, it is possible," Melanie said. "I hope these kidnappers get caught soon and peace will return to our beloved city."

"Are they really kidnappers though? I mean if they were kidnappers they'd have dropped a note for ransom and so far we haven't heard of any ransom conditions." Charlene pointed out.

Brian hummed as he thought of this.
