Riches in Disguise novel Chapter 230

"Yes, I do. Don't worry, William. I know you haven't been coming to see me because you had something important to handle. I can take care of myself. My plan is to go home and rest for a bit. Then, I'll sign up for the entrance exams and get into Welsington University to study with you."

Her words warmed my heart. I smiled and said, "You'd need really good marks to get into Welsington University. You took such a long break from your studies. Would this be a problem?"

"Not at all. I've been working hard recently. I even took a few mock exams recently and achieved high marks. I will do my best!"

"Alright. Send me a text on where you'll be staying. Once I'm done handling this, I'll pay you a visit."

Jane seemed to be over the moon. She immediately sent her location to me.

I forwarded it to Alan and said, "Help me check the surroundings of this neighborhood."

Alan replied quickly, "The apartment is in a middle-class neighborhood which is rather old. Although the crime rate is low, there is an immigrant community in the area. In terms of convenience, it's quite average."

Didn't this mean it was a horrible area?

I knew that Jane was surviving solely on the money I provided her with. She'd been sick for so long, any money she'd saved had probably been spent on paying off her medical bills. How would she be able to rent a good apartment?

I ruminated on it for a while and decided to invite Jane over to stay at Imperia Manor once I finished dealing with Felicia.

With Sophia there, they could keep each other company in an environment which was conducive of their studies.

I treated Jane as a sister of mine.

As I was figuring out what to do with Jane, Victor found some clues and reported them to me.

"Mr. White, I've contacted the airport to obtain surveillance footage. Ms. Cylon got into a Porsche immediately after getting off the plane. This is the car plate number and some information about the car. Based on our research, this car seems to be headed to Pelagos Estates."

From her attempt to sleep with me last night, she must've heard Travis call Felicia his sister-in-law and guessed my identity. Then, she wanted to get near me. That was why she set out last night's plan.

For last night's scheme to succeed, the first unpredictable factor she had to control was Felicia.

It was possible that Felicia's abduction was Roxanne's doing.

However, she wouldn't have been able to manage this on her own. She must've had help.

I frowned and said to Victor, "This seems like a serious matter. Should we call the police?"

He shook his head immediately and said, "Mr. White, we have not gotten to the bottom of things yet. My suggestion is to not act rashly just yet. The fact that the kidnappers haven't contacted us means that the situation can still be remedied. If we called the police and pissed them off, they could harm Felicia as a result. We wouldn't want that."
