A Matter of Wife and Love

Chapter 168

“Are there any updates?” Amelie asked anxiously after getting into the car.

“I’m not sure yet.” Samuel frowned.

The car was moving forward, but Amelie didn’t know where it was heading. With a heavy heart, she fastened her seatbelt quietly and didn’t ask where they were headed.

When Samuel turned around, he noticed that her lips were pursed and she seemed to look very worried. “They managed to track Bria, so she should still be in the city. We will be able to find her easily as long as she hasn’t left,” he comforted her.

Hearing that, Amelie nodded quietly. She knew that he was trying to make her feel better. However, she felt helpless from not knowing the person’s motive, and she didn’t know whether they would hurt Bria or not. Praying to God seemed to be the only thing to do right now as there was nothing else she could do. The helplessness that she currently experienced wasn’t even comparable to the desperate moments she had experienced in the Alston Family.

After a while, she managed to pull herself together and asked, “Where exactly did they find traces of her?”

Before Samuel could answer her, the car came to a halt. “Here,” he answered while pointing his

finger.

“Urban Garden?” The name seemed rather common, but it was a place where the richest gathered. Moreover, it was situated in the city center. Clouson City was a first-tier city and highly populated, but the land was scarce to a point where prices became sky-high.

Meanwhile, Urban Garden was situated right in the middle of the city, and it consisted of stunning multi-story mansions. Each mansion was separated by roads and large patches of gardens. It was as luxurious as it could get.
