Chapter 470

Her Identity Was Revealed

“Zero in and check the situation.” Anastasia anxiously followed Rey as he approached the man.

She noticed a camera zooming in on a specific location until an image of several kidnappers on guard
on the deck appeared. The camera then shifted, but there was no sign of Jared. Suddenly, the camera
focused on a woman sipping tea on the third level of the deck.

Despite the fact that the camera didn’t show the image clearly, Anastasia recognised the woman on the
screen right away. Shocked, she exclaimed, “Aliona? That is Aliona Dora!”

Rey, too, was taken aback. When the camera zoomed in, he recognised the woman as Aliona, who
was sipping coffee. Two of her men approached her, apparently reporting something, but they couldn’t
hear what they said. They had only the images.

“The kidnappers were all under her?” Anastasia asked in disbelief. She could not believe that Aliona
was the one behind all these.

She hates me, but why does she want to kidnap my son? And why does she want Elliot to go?

What is her ultimate motive?

One thing troubled Anastasia so much that she almost couldn’t breathe. Since Aliona hated her, how
would Aliona treat her son?

“Jared will definitely be abused by her!” She grabbed at her chest. Her heart was in excruciating pain.

While Rey, standing beside, could only console her, “Don’t worry, Miss Tillman. She will not do anything
to Jared before President Presgrave agrees to her requests.”



“There are only 100 nautical miles from the international seas now. Perhaps the kidnappers want the
exchange of hostages to be done on international seas.”

Since Jared went missing, every second has felt like a torment for Anastasia.

“Rey, what do you think Aliona wants from Elliot?”

At this precise moment, Rey received a message, which he read immediately. After reading it, he finally
understood everything.

“I have just received unofficial information that Aliona is not Lucas’ illegitimate child; they are not
related. Perhaps she was someone on Riley’s side, and everything she is doing now is to seize the
Presgrave Group for him. As to what they want from President Presgrave, perhaps they intend to have
him sign some contracts in their favor.”

“Just like how Riley wanted Elliot to sign the contract transferring half of Presgrave Group’s shares
previously? But Elliot is in their hands this time. Will they hurt him after he signs the contract?” The
more Anastasia thought about it, the more afraid she became. Elliot was Harriet’s only grandson. If
anything happened to him, how would the entire Presgrave Family survive?

“Don’t worry. President Presgrave has his way for sure.”

Just as Rey finished his words, his phone rang. “It’s from President Presgrave.”

He then took Anastasia to another room to answer the call, which he turned on the speaker
immediately. “President Presgrave!”

“Is Anastasia with you?”

“I’m here,” she immediately responded.



“You all should know by now that Aliona is the one behind the kidnapping. If I’m not wrong, she is
working for Riley. I will get Jared back safely.”

“How about you? How are you coming back?” Anastasia asked, her voice choked with sobs.

“I’ll be safe,” Elliot calmly promised.

“We have located Aliona’s yacht, President Presgrave. But we can’t hear any sound. All we can see is
some images. We will get you out as fast as possible.”

“Good. However, do not act until Jared is safe. Follow the plan, and keep in mind that saving Jared is
the top priority,” Elliot stated authoritatively, as if Jared’s life was more important than his.

Anastasia, on the other hand, could no longer contain her tears. She covered her lips and tried to
conceal her crying, fearing that Elliot would be worried about her.

Rey felt sorry for her when he saw her in this manner. “President Presgrave, please hold on as long as
you can. We will try our best to save you.”

“Okay. Let me have a word with Anastasia.”

Rey then left the room after passing the phone to her.

In the quiet room, Elliot could hear her sobbing. “Can you talk now? If you can’t, we can talk after you
calm down.”

“I’m alright. You can talk now!” She sniffed, forcing herself to calm down, but her voice remained
hoarse.
