Chapter 292 You’d Better Cooperate
In the streets of Capital City, a dozen cars roared past, leaving many people staring in shock and confusion as the convoy disappeared into the distance.
“Whose convoy is that? Why are they heading towards Eldorvale?”
“That’s quite a spectacle. Not even Mr. Eric had such a grand procession. Who could it be?”
“Eldorvale is an undeveloped area. What are they going there for?”
The onlookers speculated, but none could figure out the purpose of the convoy. After a few moments, they returned to their activities.
Meanwhile, Hendrick gripped the steering wheel tightly, while Linus, filled with regret and guilt, sat in the passenger seat. They were heading swiftly toward Eldorvale.
George and a team of bodyguards were in the leading vehicles. George had mentioned that Kate had a tracker on her, and they were now following its signal to locate her.
Kate’s phone had been found discarded on the side of the road.
At that moment, in an abandoned building in the Eldorvale suburbs, Kate slowly regained consciousness, her head foggy.
She blinked in confusion, realising she was tied to a chair with her hands and feet securely bound. She was locked in an abandoned room.
“Heh, you’re awake?”
A cold male voice suddenly echoed. Kate turned toward the sound and saw a face she recognised all too well.
She frowned in shock. “Scott?!”
Scott slowly walked over, pulled up a chair, and sat across from Kate, looking at her with a mocking smile. “Isn’t this the high and mighty Ms. Lowe, Eric’s Mrs. Davison? How come you’re so pathetic now?
“When you hurt Lana, did you ever think you’d end up like this?”
Scott’s face twisted with rage as he glared at Kate, wishing he could drag her to the edge of the building and throw her off, making her experience the same bloody fate. But he couldn’t, and he dared not. Kate was their leverage against Eric.
Kate looked at Scott’s snarling face with calm contempt and scoffed. “So you kidnapped me to avenge your brainless daughter?”
Her eyes remained steady, showing none of the fear or panic Scott hoped to see. Scott’s expression grew colder

He suddenly stood and raised his hand to strike her, but before he could, a shout stopped him. “Stop!”
The two men who had been assisting Scott hurried over, their faces showing displeasure and menace. “Didn’t we warn you not to touch her?”
Scott’s hand froze mid–air, seething with anger. “I just wanted to teach her a lesson!”
The thugs glared at Scott. “It’s not time yet.”
One of them pushed Scott aside and sent him outside, while the other leisurely approached Kate with a phone in hand.
Kate watched the masked men with a cold gaze and spoke first, “Hiding your faces, huh? Guess gutter rats like you always use underhanded tactics.”
Her blatant mockery caused the thugs to pause, but they didn’t take the bait. The one with the phone remained calm, holding the device so its camera pointed at Kate’s face. “Ms. Lowe, you’d better cooperate and make a video.”
Kate turned her head away, staying silent.
The thug’s eyes remained cold as he spoke, “Ms. Lowe, it’s in your best interest to cooperate. It will be better for both of us.”
He paused, then added with a smirk, “Besides, don’t you want to know where Eric is right now?”
