I Owe You One
"What are you telling me all this for? It's not like I'm involved, " Nella said coldly, almost hanging up.
"You can choose whether you want to be the hero or the villain right now, " Carla said urgently. "Just tell me your father's phone number and identification number. That will save six kids. Both the Giblo family and the Lierger family will owe you one!"
Nella fell silent for a few seconds and murmured, "Crazy." before hanging up.
"Hello? Hey!"
Carla called out a few times urgently, gritting her teeth in anger. She thought she had lost all hope when she suddenly received a text.
Immediately, she opened it to see Newton's phone number and identification number.
Carla immediately copied the numbers and pasted them into the software that Randy had invented to find his location.
At that moment, the car was already driving into the Garden Villa's gates.
The bodyguards from Northridge had also rushed over.
Thompson's bodyguards also emerged, and the three convoys met in the middle of the junction before they went to report to Carla urgently.
"Ms. Lierger, some people from Mr. Zayn's side suddenly showed up to fetch the kids. Remon and Polka were about to go with them when they realized that something was wrong, but before they could do anything, those people had brought away the entire convoy."
"Why didn't you stop them in time?" Carla asked in frustration.
"By the time we realized it, the convoy had already driven away, and we immediately called Mr. Thompson-"
"Okay, " Carla cut them off. She knew these were just a bunch of old, retired bodyguards who only had to protect Thompson most of the time. It was only natural that they weren't the most alert or skilled, and she knew she couldn't ask so much of them.
As for Remon and Polka, they had been dragged away too.
Whoever had kidnapped them probably held the kids' safety over their heads, rendering them unable to resist.
Nevertheless, it was useless to think about all of this now.
"Ms. Lierger, after a thorough search, we think they've gone toward the northwest, " the Northridge group reported.
"Go after them, quick, " Carla commanded.
"Yes, Ms. Lierger."
"You guys will stay here and inform me of any updates, " Carla told Thompson's bodyguards before rushing away.
All they knew was that the group of kidnappers was headed northwest, but none of them was sure exactly where they had gone.
Carla made them split up to hasten the search while she used Randy's software to find Newton.
However, because Carla wasn't a professional, she wasn't familiar enough with the software to use it properly.
Suddenly, Jamal called. "Carla, do you happen to know who kidnapped the kids? If you have their information, I can find them through satellite tracking."
"Thank you, Jamal!"
Carla immediately sent the phone number and identification number to him.
"I'll get started right now. Wait for me, all right?"
"Thank you so much!" Carla said, incredibly grateful.
Time was of the essence, so Carla brought her own team to look for her kids all over the place while waiting for Jamal's tracking to work.
All she wanted right now was to find her kids.
Suddenly, Naya and Brandy called and asked what happened.
In order to confuse Boris, Carla hadn't told Naya and Brandy that it was a ruse. They had fallen for it and actually went to look for Zayn, but after finding out that it was an act, they heard from the Lierger bodyguards that the kids had been kidnapped.
With that, the two of them immediately split up to begin searching.
Naya brought the men back to the hospital to look for Venus while Brandy gathered more people to help Carla so they could find the other five kids.
Soon enough, Naya sent over some good news. It turned out that Venus was at the hospital and was completely safe.
