VEILED IDENTITY CHAPTER 283
Yvonne arrived at the meeting place. She wondered why the restaurant didn't have a single customer. "You can wait outside." Yvonne said. "Are you sure ma'am? I mean I wonder why there's no customer here." Her guard said. "I guess it's not a very popular restaurant." Yvonne replied. "Miss what would you like to order?" A waitress asked. "Just water, I'm waiting for someone." Yvonne replied. "Okay ma'am." "You can wait outside, I'll be fine really." Yvonne said and the guard decided to go outside. Only for him to be knocked out. The restaurant was actually owned by Cohen. "Take him to the back." Cohen ordered. "Yes boss." Cohen was glad Yvonne sent the guard outside; it just made their job easier. 'I'm in the back of the restaurant. Can you come out to see me?' Sarah texted. 'Dad, why do you want to meet in the back of the restaurant? Just come in, I'm sure my bodyguard won't let me go to the back.' Yvonne replied. "Boss, I think we got a problem. Leonard ac

"They're finding a way to track them." Leonard said. "This cannot be happening." Reece said. "Uncle, why are you calling?" Annabelle asked. "It's..." Leonard stammered. "What happened?" "Annabelle, Yvonne's been taken." Leonard replied. "What? What happened to Yvonne?" Annabelle asked. "Sarah kidnapped her and they're in the wind." "And the police?" Annabelle asked. "They haven't been able to track them... Annabelle, I'm worried. She held a knife to Yvonne's neck. What if Yvonne upsets her and she decides to kill her." Leonard said. "Calm down. I'm sure that wouldn't happen, no matter what, a
VEILED IDENTITY CHAPTER 285
Yvonne looked around the room she was in. Sarah locked her in the room and she couldn't just sit back and do nothing. Even if Annabelle asked her to. She remembered the structure wasn't a multi story so she can actually climb out right. She decided she was going to jump out the window. She doesn't want anyone to get hurt, she just wants to go home. And since Annabelle was on her way she should go meet them. Yvonne began bringing everything in the room together and she was determined to get herself out of the room. **** "Are you sure there would be high security there?" Reece asked. "I'm sure I'm telling you, you need to be careful it's Sarah after all." Leonard said. "So I already called for backup..." Annabelle said. "Some of my guards are on standby." Reece said as well. "I just hope Sarah doesn't figure this out before we get there." Leonard said. "Do you really think she can hurt Yvonne?" Reece asked. "She might use her as a hostage again." Annabelle said.

Yvonne had just jumped out the window successfully when she heard Sarah calling for her. She sprained her ankle on her way down and found it hard to move. She stayed there for a while and finally began walking away slowly. She couldn't afford to make a sound and get caught again. Yvonne heard the sound of a car pullover and thought maybe it was Annabelle and her team. She decided to go see what's going on and soon saw the building was on fire. Yvonne panicked and began running toward Annabelle and her dad because she didn't want to get burnt but she saw her mom not giving herself up she guessed they were arguing over her. "No Yvonne." She heard Reece yell. He was there too? "How dare you burn the building when you know your daughter is still in there you witch." Leonard glared and almost went to slap Sarah across the face.

"I know I'm finding it hard to believe it myself. Which is why sometimes I feel like I don't deserve you." Charlotte said. "Charlotte don't you ever say that." Arthur said and added; "I promise I'll nev

Peterson opened the test results and read through it, he was surprised that his DNA matched Sophie's. That means Sophie was his daughter. But why would Charlotte keep it from him, why would she lie to him? After all the years, was that why she kept her distance?

"I didn't let you finish really? Why would you go to their house?" Adonis asked. "First of all the party isn't held in their house and secondly, it's an official party and birthday party. So yes, stop being paranoid." Sophie said. "Why didn't you tell me you were going to a party in the first place?" Adonis asked. "Must I tell you everything? Besides, it slipped my mind." Sophie said.
