Chapter 2260
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
Chapter 2260 Sam Swallowed The Tracker When Monica went to look for Layla, she saw that Sloan was about to take Layla out. Layla was throwing a large black backpack into the car, wearing a strange outfit. When she saw Monica, she asked warily, âWhat are you doing here at this hour?â
âHis Highness asked me to look for you.â Monica hurried over to pass her Averyâs documents. After telling her a brief summary of the situation, she added, âIâve asked my ex-partner to look into this, but he hasnât been able to yield any results after a long time. His Highness is anxious about it, so he has sent me here to ask for your help.â
âYouâre doing this to save Francesca, so this is no trouble. Itâs my duty, really,â Layla replied, her tone softening.
âYou should have told me about this earlier. Iâll look into this now.â
âI thought my partner could find some lead on thisâ¦â Monica muttered. âYouâre heading out, right? I shall take my leave, then.â
âIâll look for you all when I have results. Iâll be off now.â With that, Layla got into the car with the documents.
After watching them leave, Monica drove back. Layla read Averyâs documents and mumbled under her breath, âThatâs strange. Why does this girl look familiar to me?â
âAre you talking about the presidentâs daughter?â Sloan asked. âI heard from Gordon that she has been sickly since young, so she has never appeared in public. Have you seen her before?â
âNo.â Layla shook her head. âI doubt Iâve seen her before, but thereâs something familiar about her.â Once she finished reading all the pages, she stiffened. âMs. Avery has congenital heart disease?â
âYes.â Sloan nodded. âMs. Felch even treated her a while back.â
âNot only does she have heart disease, but she also suffers from mental illnessâ¦â Layla continued skimming through the pages. âThis is strange. Where have I seen her before?â
âMs. Layla, letâs think about this later on and look for Ms. Felch first,â Sloan reminded. âAre you sure Sam will be able to find Ms. Felch? What if it doesnât find her and even bites innocent people on its way there? Wonât that make thingsââ
âDonât worry. I have a telepathic connection with Francesca. If she knows that Iâm here, sheâll summon Sam.â
âReally?â
âOf course. Not only is Sam going there to protect Francesca, but itâs also scouting the path for us. If anything urgent pops up later, we can use this path to rescue Francesca.â
âOkay.â
Soon, the two of them came to a hill near the prison.
Sloan stopped the car in the forest before pointing at the stone tower a short distance away. âMs. Felch is imprisoned there, but Iâm not sure which cell sheâs in.â
âAre you sure sheâs there?â Layla asked.
âOf course. Although Mr. Lindberg is currently missing, he is still a well-known, powerful man. It was easy to retrieve information from others.â
âOkay.â
Layla looked up and let out a wolfâs howl.
Sloan was stunned to his core, for Laylaâs imitation was almost perfect.
The guards on duty were alerted, and they began glancing around warily, thinking that there were wolves.
Meanwhile, Francesca, who had just fallen asleep, woke with a start. She clambered out of the bed to look out the window. She knew Layla was there.
That was because Laylaâs wolfâs howl was not actually an imitation of a real wolfâs howl. There was a hidden message in it.
Layla continued to howl a few more times before asking Sloan to release Sam.
Quickly, Sam slithered in the direction of the prison.
Francesca, who had received Laylaâs message, knew that Sam was on its way, so she made a low whistle to summon Sam to her side.
After watching Sam go, Layla asked Sloan, âDid you put the tracker on Sam?â
âI did,â Sloan answered timidly. âBut Sam swallowed the tracker. Will it poop it out?â
âYou had one job!â Layla huffed and glared at him.
âThere was nothing I could do about that. Sam didnât want to listen to me, and I didnât dare to hurt it,â Sloan muttered aggrievedly.
âForget it. Itâs good enough that it swallowed it.â
