“Take Me Home,” She Cried—Then Her Father Destroyed Her Husband’s Empire

Evelyn’s entire frame trembled with uncontainable, terrifying panic.

She turned and sprinted blindly toward the heavy mahogany front entrance of the residence.

Harrison intercepted her in the private marble foyer, catching her arm with absolute, immovable strength.

"Where exactly do you think you are running off to in such a pathetic panic?" Harrison demanded firmly.

"Julian has kidnapped Leo!" Evelyn sobbed frantically, trying desperately to pull away from his grip.

"He forcibly dragged him right out of his hospital room!"

"He commanded me to meet him at the abandoned harbor warehouse completely alone!"

"If you attempt to follow me or bring any security, he will murder Leo without hesitation!"

Harrison did not show a single trace of panic or emotional distress on his disciplined face.

He calmly turned toward the coat rack and reached for his heavy wool overcoat.

"He fully anticipates that you will lose your mind and act purely on raw emotion, Evelyn," Harrison said smoothly.

"He is actively baiting you into making a completely reckless, fatal error."

"I have no choice, I am going alone, Uncle Harrison!" Evelyn screamed out, desperately yanking her hand back.

"You are not setting a single foot into that death trap alone," Harrison declared with absolute authority.

"Take a quiet look down at your smart phone screen right now."

Evelyn hastily unlocked her glowing phone screen with shaking, numb fingers.

A bright, live GPS tracking signal was steadily pulsing bright green on her navigation map.

"I secretly embedded a military-grade micro-tracker inside Leo's medical wristband months ago," Harrison explained calmly.

"He is not anywhere near that rotting harbor warehouse at Pier 9."

Evelyn completely froze mid-step, looking up at him in absolute, bewildered shock.

"He... he isn't at the harbor?" she stammered out softly.

"Julian is orchestrating a lethal ambush for you at the harbor," Harrison revealed coldly.
