Elias’ Crimes and Punishments of Romance

Simon erupted in anger inside the company, venting his frustration on anyone within reach. “You’re all useless! You can’t even keep an eye on a child!”

I followed the street cameras and saw a woman had taken her away. They went down an unnamed street where there were no cameras. After that, their whereabouts are unknown.”

Simon couldn’t stay still. He abruptly stood up, grabbed his suit jacket, and stormed out of the office, commanding, “All of you, go find her now! You’re fired if you don’t locate my daughter today!”

“Yes!”

The bodyguard followed closely behind him. “My master, we saw in the footage that the woman who took her was young and appeared to be pretty, but we couldn’t get a clear view of her face to identify her.”

“To dare to kidnap children at such a young age, I’ll kill her if I catch her.” Simon’s words were deadly serious.
