Young Bride in a Lightning Marriage: Never Tired of Mr. Leon’s Love

Chapter 312



"In the end, he demanded that I come back and tell the king and queen to prepare a five billion ransom within two days, or else he'll kill the hostage. "B-But, she's my sister! I cried and begged him to kidnap me instead, saying I was worth more than her.

"But he said that he knew that I wasn't biologically related to the royal family. Now that you guys have found your real daughter, you wouldn't care if I was dead or alive. Then, he knocked me unconscious too."

Charlotte sobbed, but she still managed to articulate everything she wanted to say clearly.

Upon hearing this, Juliana took two steps back. She would have fallen if it were not for Arthur's support.

"Y-You're saying that Velda has been kidnapped..."

Juliana stuttered while Arthur looked at Charlotte with a pained expression.

Charlotte then cried even louder, "It's all my fault. If I hadn't wanted to bond with my sister and take her out of the palace for shopping, she wouldn't have been kidnapped.

“My brother-in-law hasn't come back yet. I don't know if he has realized that my sister has been taken or if he's chasing after the kidnappers.

"Dad, Mom, I beg of you, please go and rescue my sister. The kidnapper wants five billion. I-I'll take out all my savings now..."

Charlotte staggered as she tried to get up to go to her private treasury, but Arthur and Juliana quickly steadied her.

Although they were deeply saddened and worried upon hearing the news, seeing their eldest daughter so concerned about her younger sister, they could not bear to say anything.

Instead, they held back their tears

and comforted Charlotte, "My

darling, you've been through a lot as well. Get some rest, and don't worry. Trust us, we'll do everything we can to find your sister and bring her back safely."

"Yes, don't worry about it, my child. We know you're concerned about your sister, but you also need to take care of yourself."

Juliana trembled as she wiped away the tears from Charlotte's eyes, who nodded obediently and said, "Okay, I'll take good care of myself. I won't let

you worry. Please make sure to

find my sister as soon as possible."

Seeing her so obedient and sensible, Juliana forced a smile. After comforting her, they left the room. Juliana could no longer hold back her tears. She had been holding them back as she did not want Charlotte to feel even more upset and guilty.

Arthur promptly summoned the palace administrator and ordered the royal guards to search the entire country for the kidnapper. They were to report back as soon as they had any news about Velda.

In addition, they needed to allocate five billion from the national treasury as the kidnapper could contact them at any time.

With such a high ransom demand and such bold behavior, it was likely that the perpetrator was from a large criminal organization.

After giving all the orders, Arthur embraced his wife and comforted her, "It's alright. We'll find Velda. We're the leaders of this country. How could we possibly lose our little princess in our own nation?"Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

"But what if the kidnapper escapes the country overnight? Were we being too high-profile in expressing our love for Velda? Is that why we attracted the attention of the kidnapper? He even said such things to Charlotte!"

Juliana tearfully looked at Arthur, who sighed. Don't worry. I've

already ordered the royal guards to monitor all airports and ports. If the kidnapper tries to leave the country, we'll be able to catch him right away!"

"Dear, it's not our fault for treating Velda well. It's the fault of those who harbor greed in their hearts."
