Chapter 361
Hearing Alma’s words, Cynthia suddenly became nervous and asked coldly. “Where are they? What do you want!”
“Don’t worry, Ms. Larson Alma smiled, and even the wrinkles on her face seemed kind. In Cynthia’s eyes, however, she looked like a smiling tiger.
Alma instructed the servant next to her, “Come, pour our two guests some water?
The servant obeyed, and soon two glasses of water were placed in front of Cynthia and Liam. Cynthia glanced at the glasses and didn’t move. “Ms. Larson, there’s no need to be so wary. There’s nothing in them, the old lady said calmly.
Alma was quite old and would normally be asleep at this time, but today she was in good spirits. She drank some water to moisten her throat and then said. “Take your time. I’ll return that girl to you in more than an hour.”
The more Cynthia listened, the more worried she became. She always felt that Alma had ulterior motives. She couldn’t wait and had to find the two as soon as possible.
“What the hell did you do?” Cynthia approached Alma slowly, her voice growing colder.
Secing Cynthia’s actions, someone immediately stood in front of Alma. However, Alma’s expression didn’t change at all. Her fingers were tapping on the edge of the table. “Don’t worry I won’t treat that girl badly. If she succeeds she will be the daughter–in–law of the Merson family. If she fails. she won’t suffer any losses. As for that man, he’s too troublesome, I just locked him up.”
“What?” Cynthia almost exploded with rage when she heard this. She raised her voice unconsciously and said, “You sent her to Yannison
It was no wonder Cynthia assumed that. A normal person wouldn’t send a woman to a gay man.
Right when Cynthia was about to ask Liam to contact Yannison, Alma shook her head slowly and corrected Cynthia. “It’s not Yannison. It’s Arnis.”
“What” Cynthia’s voice raised so high it could practically lift the roof. Her eyes widened in disbelief and she was furious. “Aren’t you afraid of divine punishment for this, you corpse! If you want to find a woman for Arnis so badly, why don’t you do it yourself? Go and fawn over other girls You still act like this at your age! You must be going senile
It was rare for Cynthia to swear at others, and she was livid. In her opinion, Alma was truly wicked. When she heard that it was Arnis, however, she wasn’t so nervous. After all, she had known him for many years, and she still trusted him
Still, she had to find them as soon as possible. What if Alma had drugged them? Although Arnis was gay, he still had male bodily functions. If something happened between them, the rest of Queena’s life would be ruined
Cynthia tried her best to calm herself down and left with Liam.
Alma, who was left in the room, was so angry that her eyes almost rolled back. She hadn’t met anyone who scolded her like that in decades and couldn’t find the words to fire back.
The servant kept holding Alma’s chest to help her calm down.
After Cynthia and Liam left, they decided to split up to save time.
Cynthia went to look for them room by room. Since Alma was the mastermind behind this and she was concerned about Arnis, she would certainly be waiting around. Thus, Queena probably hadn’t left the castle yet.
Meanwhile, Liam went to Yannison
There had been some rumors about the Merson family that their previous favorite candidate for the head of the family was not Yannison but Amis It was only because Arnis was gay that he was out of the running
Even so, Alma was still trying to
g to protect Arnis. This also led to some discord between the two brothers.
Her actions tonight were potentially not only to find a wife for Arnis but also for other purposes. Thus, it would be best to ask Yannison for help.
Sure enough. Yannison’s face darkened when he heard what had happened. He ordered his men to get all the surveillance videos around the castle.
The truth was that no one went out. However, when they tried to check the surveillance cameras in the castle, they found that all of the cameras had been destroyed.
Yamison looked at the monitor and closed his eyes. Even though things had come to this, his grandmother still went to so much trouble for Amis, He apologized to Liam, “Mr. Sullivan, that’s as far as I can help you. I have something else to do, so please make yourself comfortable.”
After saying that, Yannisun stood up and walked out
Meanwhile, Cynthia was trarching from room to room. She went to Arnis room first but now no one. So, she decided to search the castle’s

basement.
The basement was not bright and beautiful like the castle above. It was dark and damp with a musty smell
Cynthia took the key she had just snatched from the servant, opened the door, and walked in cautiously.
r phone.
There was no light in the basement so Cynthia went up with the dim light from her
“Queena! Queena!” Cynthia shouted as she walked, but there was nothing besides her echo. It seemed Queena wasn’t here,
Just as Cynthia was about to turn around and leave, a faint sound came from a comer.
Cynthia immediately
became vigilant and asked in a deep voice. “Who is it?”
After a long time, a voice came from there. “It’s me. Hallet,”
Cynthia heard him and quickly ran over Haller was lying in the corner with his hands and feet tied. He was in the shadows, so she didn’t notice him carlier.
She hurried over to untic him and asked witly concern, Hallet, why are you locked
up here? Are you injured?
Hallei was still dizzy and felt a dull pain in the back of his head. He had eaten some pastries earlier, but due to his upbringing, he had some degree of resistance. So, the drug’s effect was not very obvious. Tm fine. He shook his headd
Then, he remembered that Queena was kidnapped before she passed out. He quickly grabbed Cynthia’s hand and said, “Something happened to Querna
“I know, Hallet. She’s in this castle now, and we’re looking for her Cynthia told him what had happened earlier.
Hallet was furious when he heard about Alma’s intentions. “That grandma. If anything happens to Queena, I’ll definitely make her life worse than death.”
en, the two of them split up and searched each room. There were only three floors in the castle, so it was a quick search.
Then.
At this time. Queena was on the top floor and about to lose control of herself. The strange feeling in her body made her sweat profusely, and her skirt was soaked with sweat
Since she was tied with a rope, she could only keep wriggling on the bed. Her bright red lips made some shameful sounds from time to time.
Amis didn’t react. Alma must have felt sorry for her family, so she didn’t feed him anything strange.
To avoid suspicion, he could only hide at the door with his back to the bed. Arnis kept knocking on the door, hoping that someone would hear him.
