Marrying A Secret Zillionaire: Happy Ever After Novel

Chapter 1336: Still, curiosity burned through her fear. "I don't even know you guys. Why would you want to kidnap me?" To Linsey, there were only two possible outcomes to a kidnapping-either for her money or her beauty. During the car ride, she had already offered them every cent she had, but they hadn't even blinked. Yet, if their intentions were darker, they would have acted already instead of dragging her to some unknown location. Their motives remained a complete mystery.

The bodyguard ignored her question entirely, hauling her forward with bruising force until they reached an imposing villa. The moment Linsey crossed the threshold, a thunderous crash echoed from somewhere upstairs. Before she could process what she had heard, footsteps pounded down the staircase as a man appeared in frantic haste. Once his feet hit the bottom step, the man strode right over to Linsey, tilting his head to study her face. She tried to assess him as well, but between the hat pulled low and the mask stretched across his features, she found no clues to what he truly looked like.

"She doesn't look like someone from around here." His comment floated out before he glanced at the bodyguard. "You're certain she's the one?" The one doing the questioning was Lowell Gilbert, head of the bodyguards, and not shy about throwing his weight around. A respectful nod came from the guard beside him. "It was just her and a little boy inside the pharmacy when we walked in. No mistake about it." Their conversation played out right in front of Linsey. She caught the words, but piecing together the meaning proved far more difficult.

Confusion settled over her while Lowell let out a low sigh, muttering, "Desperate measures. That's what this is."

A rough shove from the guard's gun jolted her back. "What, you can't follow simple directions?" he growled, pressing her forward. "Move!" "Ouch..." A sharp sting shot through her arm. She winced and stumbled after Lowell, no choice but to obey.

Reaching the third floor, Lowell halted in front of a door bolted shut, his hand hovering at the knob. He stopped abruptly, a thought flickering across his face as he leveled her with a cold glare. "We brought you here to heal our boss. If you want to walk away from this, you'll cure him and keep your lips sealed forever. Understand?" he warned. Linsey shuddered at his words. Realization finally dawned. They had kidnapped her because they believed she was a doctor from the pharmacy. . . .
