Chapter 1214: Chapter 1214: Breaking Into the Restricted District to Rescue
"Just as handsome as my brother, I like a good man like him." A bright, innocent smile spread across Iris Seys’ little face.
With Iris’ mention, Ariel Morris suddenly remembered and quickly asked Arlo Seys, "What about Ryan? Has Ryan been rescued?"
Arlo Seys pressed his thin lips together, "Nicole is following Ryan, but there might be some trouble... those people have taken Ryan into the Restricted District."
Ever since Wells Morales stepped down, the new leader who took over the Restricted District has managed it much more orderly than when Wells was in charge, saving the police a lot of trouble.
The problem is, there’s an unspoken agreement between the Restricted District and the police — that each keeps out of the other’s business!
But now the criminals have taken Ryan into the Restricted District, and the police can’t go in and disturb the order there.
"Restricted District?" Ariel Morris’ voice was a bit surprised, but compared to Arlo’s worry, she felt much more at ease.
The Restricted District is Jose Floyd’s territory; with Nicole’s connections, Jose Floyd should be able to help.
This allowed Ariel Morris to breathe a sigh of relief, her worry for Ryan significantly alleviated.

Meanwhile.
Nicole was riding a bicycle following the people who took Ryan into the Restricted District.
Just as she hesitated upon seeing the boundary sign of the Restricted District, she received a call from Ian Sutton, the captain of the fifth police team.
"Miss Seys, where are you now? We’re here to assist in rescuing Junior Young Master Seys."
Nicole’s eyes fixed on the boundary line, her voice low, "I’m in the Restricted District."
There was a moment of silence from Ian Sutton’s side, "That’s troublesome. If our team rushes in directly, it’s bound to cause conflict with people in the Restricted District, and it won’t be a small matter. If any innocent people get hurt, we will have problems explaining it to our superiors."
Nicole responded with a heavy, solemn tone, "I’ll go in first to find Ryan. Try to get through to the management of the Restricted District, let them cooperate with our unintended entry, we’re only here to rescue someone and won’t disrupt the Restricted District’s regular business!"
"Understood, Miss Seys," Ian Sutton replied.
Nicole hung up the phone, looked at the boundary line of the Restricted District, and rode her bicycle straight in.
The Restricted District is an area in City C, filled with bars sparkling in garish lights, various underground casinos and financial houses, along with all sorts of late-night clubs.
The Restricted District is wealthy yet chaotic, with caretakers managing it. As long as it doesn’t do anything too outrageous to incite public ire, the police turn a blind eye, saving themselves the effort.
Transactions in the Restricted District are fair; anyone who tries to act like a crab walking sideways will have to pay the price.
In short, the Restricted District is a lawless land, a forbidden zone! The current head here is a name she didn’t want to recall — Jose Floyd!
Nicole pedaled her bicycle, pursuing for over two hours before reaching the Restricted District. Due to her recent miscarriage, Nicole was quite fatigued and weak.
Despite half a month of recovery with the Cooper Family, Nicole hadn’t fully recuperated from the grievous harm the miscarriage brought to her vitality, and her physical condition hadn’t yet recovered.
Riding her bicycle, Nicole meticulously searched every corner of the Restricted District for Ryan’s figure.
As night fell, seeing the Restricted District for the first time at night, a complex emotion emerged in Nicole’s eyes.
The chaos became truly apparent only at night, with crowds flocking to the Restricted District seeking pleasure, making her search akin to finding a needle in a haystack!
The crowds at night were overwhelming, prompting Nicole to abandon her bicycle and weave through the crowd in search of the criminals.
At that moment.
A black luxury sedan pulled up by the roadside.
A man in a perfectly tailored suit stepped out of the car, his cold, indifferent eyes set on a face crafted like a masterpiece by the hands of God...
