Chapter 2159
"What's going on? Why didn't my mother take her phone?" Bella became much anxious. She rushed out and searched around the community hurriedly. But she failed to find her mother. Bella panicked.
She took out her phone and called Beck, her father. However, she didn't get through. Bella could do nothing but call Ben.
"Bella, what's wrong?" Ben asked with concern when he heard Bella's panting on the phone.
"Ben, I can't find my mother even I searched the whole community. She didn't take her phone and wasn't at home." Bella panted. It sounded liked she was about to cry and was very helpless.
Immediately, Ben calmed her and said, "Don't worry, I'll be right there to help you."
"OK, I'll look around the community again." Bella pulled herself together when she heard Ben's reassuring answer. After hanging up the phone, she ran directly to the guardroom in the community.
The security guard opened the surveillance camera immediately for Bella when he saw her flushed face and red eyes because of anxiety. From the surveillance footage, Susan got out alone. She went out through the small door to the north of the community and never came back. The surveillance camera near the back door of the community was broken. So, they couldn't see where Susan went after she went out.
"What happened? Why did my mother go out by herself?" Bella was even more worried. Then she headed straight for the north gate of the community.
There was a park near the north gate. Bella walked through the park to a road. Then she stood by the road and looked at the crowded streets. Bella was so anxious that tears were about to fall down her cheeks.
It was at this moment that Ben's call came in.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
Bella watched as Ben's black car drove over. The tears she held back finally rolled down her face. Bella rushed to Ben without hesitation. Ben also got out of the car hurriedly. Seeing Bella who was panicked, Ben comforted her gently, "Don't worry, your mother will be fine."
It occurred to Bella that her mother had sent a text message to her. Then she took her phone out and showed that message to Ben, "It seems that my mother heard Rosia's secret accidently and was discovered by her. Do you think... that Rosia was afraid that my mother would know some of her secrets? And she asked someone to capture my mother?"
Ben glanced at the text message and frowned, "If Rosia dares to have an affair with a man outside behind your father's back, she is psychologically strong and bold. Thus, if your mother knows her secrets, she may do such a terrible thing."
"Then what should we do? Will Rosia kill my mother?" Bella was frightened and her face turned pale.
"No, she wouldn't dare. I can tell that she approached your father for money. Why don't you ... talk to her?" Ben was calm. He analyzed and felt that Bella had to confront Rosia about this matter.
"Will she admit it if I confront her?" asked Bella, she was not sure.
"But if you don't confront her, your mother might die. Bella, no matter how bad the villain is, don't be afraid. You know, I will always be there with you." Ben comforted Bella gently.
Hearing that something bad might happen to her mother, Bella mustered up her courage immediately. She took her phone, called Rosia, and pressed the hands-free key.
At this moment, Rosia was also restless. Though she knew that Susan was caught, she didn't know how to deal with her.
Undoubtedly, Bella's call intensified Rosia's discomposure. She stared at her phone and waited for a long time. Then she answered as if nothing had happened.
"Bella, do you call me to apologize?" Rosia's voice was cold.
"Where's my mother? Did you hide her?" Bella asked her directly, not giving her time to react.
Rosia was shocked. She didn't expect Bella to doubt her so quickly. Suddenly, Rosia laughed angrily, "Bella, are you kidding me? If you want to find your mother, don't ask me. I'm not your mother."
"Oh, Rosia come on. My mother overheard your conversation with others on the phone. You were scared. And you asked someone to kidnap her, didn't you?" Bella uttered her guess immediately to prove.
Rosia was panic. Though Bella was young, she was courageous and smart. What's more, she pondered over the two things together.
"Don't talk nonsense. I didn't kidnap your mother. I'm busy and I'm hanging up." Rosia did not dare to continue with her, so she hung up the phone.
Bella was still anxious and was about to dial again. Ben stopped her and said, "Do you hear that she's guilty?"
Bella shook her head, "No, but she does seem to be hiding something."
"You've already suspected her. She won't harm your mother. I guess if she kidnapped your mother, she will release her." Ben was a
psychological expert and good at reading people's minds. So,
realized that Rosia had felt guilty and was scared.
Bella looked at Ben, at a loss.
Bella's mother had disappeared for less than two hours, so she couldn't call the police. Bella had to follow Ben back home and waited

ring.
It was from an unfamiliar number.
Bella's heart tightened as she answered hurriedly. Then she heard Susan's voice.
"Bella, go home and open the door. I didn't take the key."
Bella and Ben looked at each other and rushed out of the door.
Susan stood in the corridor and saw her daughter with Ben. She was a little surprised, "Bella, why are you here?"
"Mom, where have you been?" Bella was terrified.
"Your aunt came to me and I went out with her." Susan replied immediately.
"Aunt came for you? For what?" Bella was vigilant. Were her aunt and Rosia on the same side?
"She asked me to take a look at the newly renovated shop. Didn't she prepare a shop for us before? She recently rented them out." Susan smiled and answered.
Bella was so scared that she patted her chest, "Then why didn't you bring your phone with you? Do you know how worried I was about you?"
"My phone was dead. And it is charging now." said Susan.
Bella turned around and exchanged glances with Ben. Did they think too much?
Or was it a false alarm that Rosia tricked her mother into a trap and changed her mind temporarily because of her call?
No matter what happened, it was a false alarm. Bella rushed over and hugged her mother, "You have to bring your phone with you and be careful if you go out, ok?"
Susan nodded. Immediately, she looked at Bella and then at Ben with a confused expression.
Ben narrowed his eyes. Was it merely a false alarm? Could it be that someone had planned this?
