Chapter 414: An Abandoned Daughter
Peggy stayed quiet as she kept in contact with the Rosandale Palace. Even after ten hours of Talia’s disappearance, they still couldn’t find her.
Apparently a Ranger who was with them was the one who helped Ralph to get a hold of Talia. He now confessed that he tried to turn them back to the village, but his voice wasn’t heard.
When he was ’forced’ to speak, he revealed that Ralph had saved his brother get an expensive medicine and he had asked to bring the Princess to where he was as a payment and he couldn’t refuse.
Even the Ranger had no more details to spare about Ralph other than confirming the drawing as Ralph.
The satellite images weren’t clear enough to record anything as there was a solar flare at that time causing disturbance and they had to rely on old-school methods.
From the last spot Talia was seen, the military and Rangers have spanned to a three mile radius without leaving a single stone unturned , but they couldn’t find a single clue as to which direction they went.
As if the troubles already are not enough, it suddenly started raining in that area. The land that receives 8cm rainfall a year as an average had 6mm rain in the past hour alone and the rain hasn’t stopped yet.
The people in that area are happy with that rainfall, but this heavy rain has seriously slowed down the rescue operation.
Oh, Talia! Your arrival brings good luck to everyone and yet you suffer always.
Peggy couldn’t help but sigh. She looked at Arthur and he had fallen asleep after silently crying for some time. She let him sleep since he might need the energy after they reach Basmia.
But the moment his phone vibrated, Arthur woke up.
