Hiding Behind Her Superficiality novel Chapter 257

Kidnapped? The word hadn’t fully registered in her alcohol-fogged mind, but Elspeth was already grabbing her car keys and getting ready to rush out.

However, Callum stopped her by grabbing her arm firmly. “Where are you going?”

Her voice was filled with anxiety as she answered, “Blake and Yelena have been kidnapped by a group of people. Max just called and told me about it, so I have to hurry up and find them. They might not be far away yet.”

At once, his expression turned cold. This was no small matter since both Blake and Yelena were very famous actors. Once it became known that the two of them had disappeared together, the consequences would be unimaginable.

As such, he decided to go with her in search of them. Perhaps they could find some important clues. After all, two people were stronger than one.

Elspeth didn’t object as well, and she nodded in agreement before they drove to the location where Max had been abandoned.

When they arrived, she saw Max sitting by the road, looking dejected as he mumbled to himself.

“Max!” She called out his name, pulling him back from wherever his mind had wandered. At the same time, when Max saw her and Callum rushing over, his eyes lit up.

“Elspeth, Callum! You’re finally here!”

After looking around, Elspeth asked, “You said that they left you here and brought Blake and Yelena with them, right?”

“Yes! I don’t know why, though. Perhaps they’re Blake and Yelena’s maniacal fans…”

If they were maniacal fans, things would be even scarier. The frequent reports of maniacal fans in recent years were enough to make people tremble in fear.

“Okay. Which direction did they head off to?”

Max pointed to the east. “Over there, to the east. They drove a black van. I even saw the license plate, but based on their modus operandi, the license plate is probably fake.”

After a nod, Elspeth got into the car right away. “Get in the car, you guys. We’ll look for them together.”

This immediately hyped Max up. Based on what he knew of her, Elspeth would go alone, so he didn’t expect her to take him along.

“Don’t get too excited. I’m bringing you along because I think you’re a good helper and can help identify the vehicle. Tsk, you look strong, but you can’t even win a fight against one person.” Her remarks left him somewhat speechless.

When Max saw Callum’s indifferent face, he knew that Callum was laughing at him in secret as well. I’m not weak. I’m just bad at fighting!

The three of them drove for a long time but still hadn’t found where Blake and Yelena were.

Suddenly, Elspeth received a message on her phone. It was a message sent to her public phone number, not her personal one, indicating that the sender was not someone she knew well or someone close to her.

As soon as she read the message, her heart wrenched. ‘Elspeth, you’re welcome to visit Room 405, International Hotel to witness an amazing show.’

Since it was an anonymous number, she couldn’t find any personal information about the sender. However, the address was in Waterside.

Immediately, she connected this number with tonight’s event.

“Let’s go. We need to hurry to International Hotel.” She floored the accelerator, driving the car at more than 70 miles per hour.

International Hotel was not far from where they were. On the way, Elspeth kept wishing to get there quickly, hoping that nothing had happened to Yelena and Blake. However, when she arrived at the hotel, she found an endless stream of reporters rushing in, making the scene look spectacular as if there were some big event going on inside.
