His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 89

Only 20 minutes remained before the engagement banquet was set to begin, and Seline was nowhere to be found.

Marianne was so anxious that tears started streaming down her face. She explained, "We were just chatting in the lounge a moment ago. Seline said she wanted to go out and play for a bit. I let her go, but I can't find her at all!"

Sophia tried to comfort her. "Don't worry. Everyone here today is a guest invited to attend the engagement ceremony. Seline won't be in any danger.

"She might have just wandered outside the villa. The estate is vast, so it's normal that she can't be found right away. We can check the surveillance camera first."

Tessa suggested, "My father has already gone to check the surveillance. Let's split up and look for her. We should send out more people to search."

Just then, a sudden commotion erupted in the crowd ahead.

They turned to look and instantly went pale with fright.

The electronic screen originally intended to play a short film for the engagement ceremony was instead playing a video of the kidnapped Seline, crying and screaming in fear.

"Dad, Mom, Tessa, where are you? I want my mom! Let me go! Mom, I've been taken by bad guys. Please come and save me!"

On the screen, Seline was tied to a chair, crying and struggling desperately.

Marianne's legs gave out, and she nearly fainted. Luckily, Tessa supported her. "Ms. Connors…"

"Tessa, what are we going to do about Seline? Think of something…" Marianne sobbed so uncontrollably that she could barely form sentences. "How could this happen? How could Seline be kidnapped? I can't…"

Her cries turned into wails of despair. "If something happens to Seline, I don't want to live anymore!"

"How could this happen? Weren't all the attendees here today guests from our two families? How could someone kidnap Seline?" Sophia was bewildered.

At that moment, a distorted, eerie voice came from the hall's broadcast system.

"Tessa, if you want your sister to live, come to the rooftop."
