Chapter 588
"We have to go now, it has already been five minutes longer than the scheduled time!"
"No, it might actually be a heavy fog. I heard that visibility is very low. They might even close the port. Let’s wait for the news first!"
"Who said there was fog? How can there be fog in this weather?!"
"Anyway, let’s wait a bit longer. Safety first!"
Chloe Collins glanced at them, knowing she couldn’t stall for much longer and her lie would soon be exposed. She had to find Theodore Collins quickly.
For Theodore’s safety, she didn’t call the police right away, trying her best not to startle the kidnappers.
Otherwise, once they received the news, they might immediately move Theodore or take some extreme actions.
She took a photo of the ship and sent it to Alex.
She briefly explained the situation to him and asked him to help her keep the ship from leaving.
Alex replied quickly.
He was coincidentally carrying out an inspection at the Firenze branch.
[Alex: The ship won’t leave. I will have my people keep an eye on it. Don’t go on board yet.]
[Chloe: No, just keep the ship here. Don’t do anything else. This situation is weird.]
[Alex: I’m worried about you being alone. Wait for me.]
[Chloe: I’ve been through more dangerous situations. This is nothing.]
After a few more exchanges, Alex agreed not to send anyone to follow her.
Seeing his reply, Chloe felt a bit relieved.
As she looked at the ship, she couldn’t help but wonder.
Why did a kidnapping occur on a ship belonging to the Fosters, a large company’s freighter operating within the law?
What was strange was that the kidnappers didn’t ask the Collinses for money in exchange for Theodore.
What was their goal?
After some thought, a possibility came to Chloe: human traffickers.
There had been similar situations before.
Some dark forces were involved in this type of business, making huge profits from it.
Otherwise, Theodore wouldn’t have appeared on this ship for no reason.
But why did this happen on one of the Fosters’ freighters?
As she pondered, she approached the boarding gate.
One of the crew members was faster than her, already running to a supervisor and whispering something in his ear, showing him something.
Just then, Chloe walked closer.
The two men came straight towards her, extending their hands in a friendly manner.
"Hello, Miss Collins, right? We’ve already received the company’s notice. Welcome to take Mr. Foster’s place in the inspection. I’m Eduardo, and I’ll be taking you to..."
As Chloe walked onto the ship, she quickly interrupted, "I’m not the one here to inspect the work, that’s Mr. Foster. He’s on his way. I’m just his girlfriend, waiting for him. You don’t need to entertain me or follow me. Otherwise, he’ll be very upset. Also, don’t make a fuss about the inspection."
Her fluent speech and calm demeanor made it easy for people to believe her.
Upon hearing the word "girlfriend," the crew member and supervisor immediately backed off a few meters, not daring to get too close to her!
"Please feel free to look around," they said with a smile.
That reaction was just what Chloe wanted. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have deliberately lied about it.
She nodded slightly and quickly entered, disappearing from their sight.
Still feeling uneasy, the crew member asked the supervisor, "Do we really not need to send someone with coffee?"
"No need. If the boss misunderstands, we’ll lose our jobs. Just let her explore as she wishes. Let’s go welcome the boss."
With that, the two men quickly returned to the boarding gate to wait.
