Save Her Lose Us (Evangeline and Soren) novel Chapter 342

Finn had someone take the kitten back to his place and then raced back into the city. He intended to confront Poppy directly, but as soon as he arrived, he heard a shocking piece of news circulating among the city's elite.

Poppy had been kidnapped.

It had happened half an hour ago. Flora Fawkes had discovered it when she went to Poppy's house. She hadn't dared to raise a general alarm, keeping it from Helena and Clyde, and had gone straight to Soren.

At Fawkes Manor, Flora was pacing frantically.

"Soren, it has to be Evangeline," she insisted. "Poppy just got back to the country. She hasn't offended anyone here. Besides, everyone knows about your relationship. Who would be crazy enough to kidnap her? This is obviously an attack on you!"

"Everyone in Serenity City respects our family. It has to be Evangeline. She's jealous of Poppy and knows you'd go easy on her, so she did this!"

Soren sat on the sofa, his brow furrowed as he stared at the ransom note on the table. It was simple: a message stating Poppy had been kidnapped, a demand for thirty million in cash, and a car. It was printed on standard A4 paper in a generic font, offering no other clues.

With their engagement party just two days away, the timing of Poppy's kidnapping was highly suspect.

Still, Soren asked calmly, "What would be her motive?"

"To sabotage your engagement with Poppy, of course!" Flora shot back. "She's still jealous that Poppy gets to be with you. I told you she sent people to investigate Poppy overseas just a little while ago!"

Soren's attention sharpened. "When was this?"
