Chapter 145
Before dawn, the cruise ship docked ahead of schedule, and the guests had no idea what had happened. How could the trip end early?
When everyone else was escorted off the ship, Nora immediately started causing a scene.
“Why aren’t you sending someone to find Aveline? It’s this bitch who conspired with outsiders to kidnap my son!” she shouted.
Jordan couldn’t help but want to slap her when he heard those words. He kicked the person in charge, Alex Ziegler, into the room from outside.
Nora was furious when she saw this. “What do you mean? If you’re not going to find Aveline, why are you arresting my uncle?”
“What am I doing? I also want to ask you what you’re planning to do,” Jordan retorted.
Alexander sat on the sofa, his expression extremely gloomy. He threw a stack of bills from the table.
“I took out one billion to prepare for Jamie’s birthday banquet. How much did he actually eat?”
Alex was Quincy’s only older brother. After their mother passed away, the Kingsley’s had always treated
him well. However, he had become accustomed to idleness and gambling.
This time, Nora insisted on having him organize the one–year–old banquet, clearly wanting to skim some profit from it.
“It’s understandable that you care about your uncle and want him to earn some money. But have you ever considered that he doesn’t have the ability to execute it? In order to save money, he bought ingredients that weren’t fresh, and even abandoned the professional team that I had hired at great expense. Instead, he casually hired some random people from outside with no security experience. They set off fireworks and watched fireworks at such a crucial time, causing serious safety hazards!”
“Mr. Sterling, please let me explain. I…”
However, Alexander had already stood up. His tall figure blocked the bright light from the ceiling, and his eyes were filled with anger as he walked towards Alex step by step.
“You only used the original chefs to save money, and even drove away their apprentices, hiring cheap labor. Do you think this is your backyard?”

Alex stood up and wanted to explain. “I, I did it to save some money for you, Mr. Sterling. No one’s money
comes out of thin air…”
Alexander kicked him on the shoulder, and Alex begged for mercy in pain.
But when he met Alexander’s furious gaze, he couldn’t utter a word.
“If it wasn’t for you hiring people without checking their backgrounds just to save some money, those people wouldn’t have easily gotten on to the ship! If my son even loses a single hair, I’ll throw you into the sea to feed the sharks!”
Nora looked at the bill and the actual price list, realizing that the price of eggs alone was five times higher than the market price.
She knew her uncle was a bit greedy, but she didn’t expect him to go to such lengths just to make money.
“Uncle, you’ve really killed us this time!” Nora threw the price list at Alex’s face.
Alex still wanted to explain, “I didn’t know it would turn out like this. I clearly had people train them. It’s not my fault that Jamie went missing…”
Alexander gradually exerted more force with his foot on Alex’s shoulder. With a chilling aura
surrounding him, he stared at this middle–aged man driven by self–interest. “If you say one more word to justify yourself, do you believe that I’ll cut out your tongue?”
Alex quickly covered his mouth, trembling in fear.
Just the thought of Alex being responsible for the abduction of Jamie and Aveline made Alexander wish he could torture Alex to death.
Jordan walked out from the darkness with a grim expression on his face. “We checked Ms. Aveline’s phone location, but there’s no signal. As for the speedboat, it didn’t return to the harbor but headed deep into the sea.”
The worst thing had happened. The sea was the most unpredictable, cutting off all tracking clues.
