Chapter 349
Back to the Past: Breaking the Love Spell
Just then, a black Maybach slowly pulled up outside.
It was Jalenâs driver sent to pick up Narcisse from school. He stepped out of the car and frowned.
âWhatâs going on?â
Lotharâs voice trembled as he said, âMs. Holder, sheâ¦â
As if struck by lightning, the driver grabbed Lothar by the collar.
âWhat happened to Ms. Holder?â
That day was Narcisseâs birthday, and Jalen was in an excellent mood. The driver couldnât imagine how furious Jalen would be if he didnât take Narcisse back.
Lothar swallowed hard.
âMs. Holder was takenâ¦â
The driver was clearly trained. He slapped Lothar to the ground and kicked him in the stomach.
He glared down at Lothar as he cursed, âUseless! A bunch of incompetent idiots! So many of you couldnât even protect Ms. Holder. If anything happens to her, youâre all dead!â

Being a trusted confidant of Jalen, Henry Campbell quickly composed himself and sternly asked, âWhat
kind of car did the kidnapper drive?â
The bald man pointed to the taxi driver clutching his shoulder by the roadside.
âThey took a taxiâ
Henry shouted, âBring that driver over here, quick!â
Moments later, the taxi driver was brought to Henry.
Henry asked, âWhatâs your license plate number?â
The taxi driver recited his plate number to Henry.
Henry immediately pulled out his phone and made a call.
In an instant, the entire northern suburb was in upheaval.
Holder Group mobilized hundreds of people to intercept the taxi.
Half an hour later, Benjamin and Sirius were brought to Jalenâs villa.
Having already learned that Narcisse had been kidnapped, Jalenâs face was extremely grim.
Looking at the two men forced to kneel before him, he said coldly, âYou have two choicesâtell me where my daughter is or die!â
âJalen, you wonât get a word out of me,â Benjamin sneered, blood staining his teeth.
Jalen narrowed his eyes.
âEven if you donât care about yourself, you should think about your family.â
Benjamin laughed heartily.
âFunny, I donât have any family.â
Jalen clenched his fists and turned to Sirius.
Before Jalen could say anything, Sirius defiantly said, âIâm an orphan.â
Jalen slammed his fist on the nearby table in a loud bang and angrily shouted, âTake them away and beat them. Letâs see how long they can keep their mouths shut!â
Meanwhile, Lethan and Shania were filled with anxiety at Carlisleâs apartment.
Carlisle was chainâsmoking, the ashtray overflowing.

Carlisleâs phone rang. He quickly grabbed it and answered the call.
âCarlisle, Narcisse Holder is in my car. Where should I take her?â
âWhereâs Benjamin?â Carlisle asked, his voice tense.
If the mission was successful, Benjamin should have been the one calling him.
There was silence on the other end of the line.
Carlisle tightened his grip on the phone.
âSpeak.â
*Benjamin and Sirius didnât make it outâ¦â Valin choked out.
Carlisle took a deep breath,
âWhat car are you driving? Iâll send someone to pick you up.â
âA blue taxi without plates!â
Valin had already removed the license plate on the road.
Carlisle instructed, âHead to Riverwatch Hotel.â
After hanging up, he turned to Francis.
âFrancis, go pick them up.â
Francis hesitated before nodding.
He had never imagined he would be involved in a kidnapping. While Carlisle intended to pressure Jalen into releasing Shein and his family, Francis was uncomfortable with such drastic measures.
Benjamin and Sirius were being tortured by Jalenâs men.
Salt was rubbed into their wounds, redâhot needles were driven under their fingernails. But neither man
made a sound.
Jalen contacted the police chief, hoping to get police assistance in rescuing Narcisse.
âMr. Holder, you must understand that all our forces are currently dedicated to rescuing Mr. Thompson. We simply canât spare anyone right now. Why donât you go to your local precinct and file a report? Iâll make sure they expedite the search.â
âForget it! Iâll find her myself!â
Jalen recognized the brushâoff.
If filing a report was the solution, he wouldnât have needed to call the chief directly.
