(Not) a Preferred Son-in-Law 21. Revealing A Truth
Andre shook his head, when he realized how curt Ariana was. However, he did not blame Veronica's mother. It really challenged Andre's masculine side that if he didn't remember where they were, he might have cursed. "Okay, Mrs. Ariana, I'll just get straight to the point." Ariana straightened her body, she began to feel curious about what Andre would say. Something important, according to Andre. How important it was to Ariana, he didn't know. "Is it true that Miss Veronica, the Mrs.'s daughter, is Leon's wife?" Andre launched a question that aimed to dig up as much detailed information as possible about Leon and Veronica. "Yes. They did get married some time ago. But the marriage was forced by my late father." Ariana immediately answered, a sad tone still heard in her words. Understandably, talking about Veronica's marriage, Ariana seemed to be opening her own wounds. The sadness of losing Alexander William on their wedding day is still felt to this day. Like a wound that is stil

It is only natural for a mother to think about her child's safety. That is what Ariana is doing. She is worried about Veronica's safety. Andre openly said that he would discuss something regarding Veronica's safety. Ariana thought, if that was discussed, it meant that Veronica's safety was at stake. "Actually, what is your plan?" Finally, the question came out of Ariana's lips. Rather than just guessing and feeling dizzy, she chose to express what was in her heart. "Well, ma'am. My plan is like this...."Andre began to explain the plan that was already in his mind. Knowing that Ariana was a very talkative and perfectionist type of woman, Andre chose to explain everything in detail."Okay, I agree. But, you must really guarantee my daughter's safety!"Finally, Ariana decided to follow Andre's plan. Her materialistic soul was increasingly struggling when Andre promised to increase the amount that Ariana would receive. She thought, when else would she get such a windfall. Moreover, A
(Not) a Preferred Son-in-Law 23. Leon And Catherine
Catherine leaned toward Leon and spoke softly, afraid that someone other than Leon would hear."I'll pretend to cheat and you'll catch me. So you decide to end the arranged marriage. How about it?" Catherine said."Huh, no fun! I'd rather you cancel it, Miss. Don't you know, I already have a wife. Maybe the news can make your family back off from this arranged marriage. How about it?"It was Leon's turn to ask Catherine. Leon realized that it was impossible for the two of them to continue the arranged marriage. Leon was already married while Catherine, for some reason, did not want to accept the arranged marriage. Maybe she already had a lover, like Veronica used to. Catherine blinked, she looked surprised to hear what Leon had said. "Is it true that you are married? But why did our parents plan this arranged marriage? Then what about your wife?" Catherine asked, she couldn't help but ask all that. "Don't you know the video about my wedding? The video went viral.""I don't know. I'

(Not) a Preferred Son-in-Law 26. Message from Andre
Leon immediately came to the hospital and confirmed Max and Luxi's report to the hospital manager. He also reported the case to the police. Several police officers immediately searched all over the place. However, they didn't seem to find anything either. CCTV footage didn't help much because Andre's two men were wearing masks that covered their faces. Andre was the same, he was wearing a mask, hat, and glasses so that when seen by CCTV his face was unrecognizable. Meanwhile, CCTV in the parking lot only recorded the moment when Veronica was pushed in a wheelchair towards a car. The position of the car was blocked by other cars so it was unclear what type of car and what the license plate number was. It seemed that the kidnappers had anticipated the presence of CCTV. So they deliberately parked his vehicle was far from the CCTV range so that it would not be recorded. Meanwhile, the CCTV that showed the activity of cars entering and leaving the parking lot clearly recorded all the c

Not long after, their order was delivered.However, all the delicious menus that usually tasted delicious now tasted bitter on Leon's tongue. The food seemed to be stuck in his throat and was difficult for him to swallow. It felt awkward and made him feel short of breath. All of that was because Leon was not well. His mind wandered wildly thinking about what had happened to Veronica.Suddenly Leon remembered the video. Various questions flashed through his mind. Actually, who did the kidnapping? What was the motive? Then, where was Veronica taken? Where should he look for Veronica? A bad shadow seemed to haunt him, considering Veronica's condition that had not recovered.

Leon opened the video that the kidnapper had just sent. It was very clear that Veronica was crying, tears streaming down Veronica's beautiful face. Veronica's expression showed deep pain, which made Leon angry again. He really didn't want anyone to hurt his wife."You're rude!" Leon cursed with a red face holding back his anger."Young Master, this way!"A bodyguard called Leon to follow him. He had found a way into the warehouse, by climbing over the fence behind the warehouse. The fence was rather low and there were no broken glass or wires on it. So it was very safe to climb. Leon and everyone else managed to jump over the fence and immediately hid.Meanwhile, Andre's other men gathered in front of the warehouse. They were playing cards while laughing. Cigarette smoke billowed and the smell of liquor wafted in the air. Andre let them act like that because he thought everything was under control.
