Chapter 598\u00a0<\/p>\n
At this point, Dorothy no longer dared to stop him. She could hear the urgency in Julian\u2019s voice. The fact that he had not stormed straight into the family hall already showed restraint and respect for her help in obtaining the antidote.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She turned to the housekeeper and spoke decisively. \u201cTake Mr. Sterling to the family hall.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Surprise flickered through Julian\u2019s eyes. Outsiders rarely gained access to the family hall. Given the urgency, he did not hesitate and headed there at once.\u00a0<\/p>\n
George, who stood guard outside, looked up and flinched at the murderous chill on Julian\u2019s face. After the housekeeper explained the situation, he hurriedly said, \u201cI\u2019ll go call Mr. Hampton right away.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNo need.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Before the words could fully register, Julian stepped straight into the hall.\u00a0<\/p>\n
George reacted too late to stop him. Fortunately, the housekeeper spoke up in time. \u201cThe old madam allowed Mr. Sterling to enter.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
George froze, cold sweat spreading across his palms. No sound came from inside for the moment, yet his heart pounded wildly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
This was not someone to provoke. If Sydney truly had been taken by Caleb, the outcome would be disastrous.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Caleb was kneeling inside the hall. When he heard the door open, he assumed it was George.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cGeorge, you don\u2019t need to sneak me out behind Grandma\u2019s back-\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhere is Syd?\u201d The cold, razor-sharp voice cut him off mid-sentence.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Caleb stiffened and turned to see Julian standing there, his face dark with fury.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Julian\u2019s collusion with Dorothy to trick him into handing over the antidote had already left Caleb simmering with anger. Hearing this accusation now, he had no reason to respond kindly. \u201cYou\u2019re asking me where she is?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Since the divorce, when had he known Sydney\u2019s whereabouts? Especially after she became involved with Julian.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Julian\u2019s gaze was sharp and unyielding. \u201cShe received a call from you 50 minutes ago. Your car picked her up afterward. Are you saying you know nothing about it?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Only then did Caleb grasp the seriousness of the situation. Something had happened to Sydney.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He sprang to his feet. After kneeling for so long, his legs buckled, and he braced himself against the table to steady himself.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s impossible that I called her.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Old grudges no longer mattered.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cFifty minutes ago, I had just arrived at the estate. After that, George took my phone. If you don\u2019t believe me, check the surveillance.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

After returning, he had not gone upstairs. Cameras covered nearly the entire first floor.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As Caleb spoke, Julian\u2019s expression grew colder by the second. Veins stood out at his temples, and his hands clenched tightly at his sides.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Caleb hesitated. \u201cYou don\u2019t believe me?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Julian did not answer. He turned and strode out, his steps fast and forceful, as if every second lost might cost him everything.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Caleb froze, then rushed after him. He grabbed his phone back from George and followed close behind. \u201cAfter all these years as friends, you trust me this little?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Julian needed to trust him. Any delay caused by suspicion could destroy their best chance of finding Sydney.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDoes it matter whether I trust you right now?\u201d Julian did not slow or look back. His voice was chilly. \u201cFinding Syd is what matters.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAs if I don\u2019t know that.\u201d Caleb had already placed a call. After a brief exchange, his face darkened.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ignoring how strained their relationship had become, he got into the car with Julian.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI found out. After my car was sent to the dealership, one of their maintenance staff drove it away.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
That meant Sydney truly had been taken in his car.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Inside the limited-edition Maybach\u2026\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sydney had ridden it many times before. She had never felt cold sink into her bones like this.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her back pressed hard against the car door. She stared at the unfamiliar bespectacled man seated beside her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWho sent you?\u201d she demanded.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The man grew impatient. \u201cHow many times do I have to say it? Mr. Hampton.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sydney frowned. \u201cI\u2019ve said just as many times that\u2019s impossible.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
During those three years of marriage, Caleb had been distant, but she knew most of the people under him. He would never allow his people to use force against her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When she sensed something was wrong earlier and tried to flee, they gave her no chance at all. They knocked her out with a sedative. 1\u00a0<\/p>\n
She woke up ten minutes ago to find the car already heading toward the outskirts of the city, clearly preparing to merge onto the highway.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Once they left Jouleston, Julian\u2019s chances of finding her would drop sharply.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her palms were slick with sweat. \u201cYou can tell me the truth. Why did you kidnap me?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIf it\u2019s something I can do, I\u2019ll do it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The bespectacled man smiled and dropped the pretense. \u201cMy boss wants Julian\u2019s life. Can you make that\u00a0<\/p>\n

He continued in an even tone, \u201cYou definitely can. After all, the person he trusts most right now should be you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
