Riches in Disguise novel Chapter 288

In any case, Riley was undoubtedly in grave danger!

With trembling hands, I pulled out my phone and called Lynn. I knew that this would break her heart, but I still had to tell her the truth.

Upon hearing my words, Lynn exploded over the phone. "Why the hell did you take her out? Who asked you to do that? If anything happens to Riley, I swear I'll kill you!"

She wasn't wrong, and I had no excuse. I had taken Riley out without permission and even failed to keep her safe. I deserved every bit of the blame.

Since the call was on speaker, Ava heard Lynn's scolding, too. She quickly said, "Ms. Blanc, scolding won't help right now.

"Riley was just taken, so this is the crucial time to find her. You should call the police and focus on getting Riley back first. We can deal with everything else later."

Lynn went silent for a moment. Then, she choked up. "Alright. I'll call the police now."

With the surveillance footage, the police immediately filed a report and began a widespread search.

The car was easy to track, thanks to the footage and the license plate number. However, when the police arrived, nobody was in the car.

The car was parked in an alley with no surveillance cameras. According to the police, it was also a reported stolen vehicle. That meant that the car didn't belong to the kidnappers. They had stolen it.

Even though the police spent over two hours reviewing nearby surveillance footage, they couldn't find any sign of Riley or any suspicious people.

The police concluded, "They must have hidden the child somewhere in this area. We'll have to run a door-to-door search."

I told them to start the search immediately. Then, I called Victor to bring him into the investigation.
