Seeing him remain silent, Samantha continued, "I'm afraid something might happen to Alexander. In the entire city, you're the only person I can turn to. Will you help me find Alexander, please?"
Afraid he might refuse, Samantha tightly held his hand and pleaded, "I beg you, please help me."
Justin, feeling sorry for her, embraced her again. His thick hands gently patted her back. His deep, husky voice seemed to have a magical soothing effect, calming the restless hearts.
"Don't worry; I will help you. Even if I have to dig three feet into the ground, I will find Alexander for you."
Seeing him agree, Samantha finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Her tense nerves slightly relaxed.
At that moment, the Maybach returned.
With a 'zoom' sound, it abruptly stopped by the roadside.
Before the car could fully stop, the driver's d
Her strength was not substantial, but Ethan felt an unbearable pain all over his body with each punch. Every blow seemed to weigh a ton, leaving him covered in injuries.Ethan's eyes turned bloodshot, resembling an enraged beast. He caught Samantha by the neck, pressing her against the utility pole on the roadside."Do you care about him that much? Huh?" he sneered.For Justin, she was willing to resort to violence against him? What did that make Ethan? Her casual entertainment tool?Or her means of satisfying physiological needs?In a fit of anger, Samantha spoke without restraint, "Yes, I care about him, I like him! He treats me well and can help me find Alexander. As for you? All you do is mock and ridicule me. Do I like you? I'm not a masochist, why would I like you? From start to finish, I was just playing with you, and you took it seriously? How foolish."
Suzy was constantly monitoring the situation on the Chelsea Creek side.After learning that the Steele family knew about the existence of Alexander, her heart almost jumped out of her throat.She was fully armed, wearing sunglasses, wrapping her head and neck tightly with a scarf, and putting on a tightly fitting windbreaker. She went to the agreed-upon location to meet with Tiger’s men."Alexander can't die."Tiger, the boss, holding a charming beauty in his arms, heard her words and showed no annoyance."You're telling me now that Alexander can't die? My men have already dug the pit."Suzy placed her luggage on the table, entered the password, and opened the suitcase.A full box of money appeared in Tiger's sight.Tiger's eyes lit up instantly, the impatience on his face vanished without a trace, and he smiled
After getting the stout man's approval, the slender man immediately untied Alexander. He also cared to ask, "Does it hurt? Is there any discomfort?"Alexander shook his head, sweetly saying, "Thank you, Uncle. I'm very happy that you care about me. I don't feel any pain at all."The slender man handed him the bread."Hungry, right? Have something to eat first."Alexander nodded obediently, sitting down beside him, delicately taking bites of the bread in his hands.As he ate, he suddenly burst into tears.The slender man immediately asked nervously, "What's wrong? Why are you crying?"With his mouth full of bread, Alexander sobbed unclearly, "If, if you were my daddy, it would be great. Then I wouldn't be a child that nobody wants. Sob..."The slender man's heart instantly softened beyond words. He felt full of sympath
Samantha searched for a long time nearby and finally saw an abandoned warehouse.She pushed aside the waist-high weeds and approached the outside of the warehouse, crouching in the grass to assess the situation inside.Alexander, who had been hiding in the tree all along, heard the commotion below, thinking it might be the kidnappers returning. The small body lay flat on a thick branch, attentively observing every movement below.Suddenly.A familiar figure caught her eye.Alexander thought his might be seeing things, rubbed his eyes vigorously, and confirmed that it was indeed Samantha.Excitedly, Alexander called out, "Mommy...!"Hearing the voice of Alexander, Samantha thought she might be overly worried, causing her to be nervous and stiff, hesitant to make any sudden movements.Seeing that he was being ignored, t
The car doors opened one after another, and the patriarch of the Steele family, assisted by Ellena, walked over, followed by various members of the Steele family.Alexander didn't recognize them and seeing a group of strangers, instinctively shielded Samantha behind him.Suzy immediately put on a smile, greeting them one by one, "Grandfather, Grandmother, Uncle, Aunt... you’re all here.”Anna looked at her in surprise, "Why are you here?"Suzy explained, "An hour ago, I received an anonymous call saying that Alexander was kidnapped and held here. Fearing for his safety, I came immediately."The patriarch had no intention of listening to their conversation. His cloudy eyes were fixed on Alexander.The hand holding the cane almost couldn't steady itself due to excitement."Alexander? You are Alexander? Not Noah?"
Suzy stared at them in disbelief.After a brief moment of stunned silence, she reacted, rushing in front of Ethan and blocking his way with her hand."Ethan, what are you doing? Do you know that it was her who caused me and Alex to be separated for four years, and you and your son to be separated for four years? Such a woman doesn't deserve your kindness."Ethan's brows furrowed, his thin lips slightly opened, and he slowly uttered two words, "Get lost.""Ethan, I gave birth to two sons for you. Can it be that in your eyes, I'm still not as good as this woman?" Suzy couldn't accept that they were being allowed to go upstairs like this.A man and a woman alone together, who knows what might happen.A layer of hostility spread on Ethan's face, and against his extraordinarily handsome but now sinister face, he coldly commanded, "Step aside."
Anna and Liam exchanged a glance and decided to leave to avoid a direct confrontation with Ethan.However, Suzy was unwilling to leave.Anna gave her a warning glare.Knowing that she would rely on Anna in the future, Suzy didn't dare to openly defy her command. Reluctantly, she followed them out.Once outside, the three of them descended the stairs, and Anna called Ethan.Ethan, who was deeply asleep, was awakened by the ringing of his phone. Afraid of disturbing Samantha, he immediately answered, deliberately lowering his voice, "What's the matter?"Feeling his intentional attempt to lower his voice, Anna felt irritated."I'm on the first floor of Chelsea Creek now. Bring Samantha to see me immediately."Without waiting for Ethan's response, she hung up.As the busy t
Anna had thought that Ethan would immediately take Samantha downstairs.Unexpectedly, this wait lasted for two hours.Seeing them still not coming downstairs, Anna couldn't bear it any longer and went upstairs.Coincidentally, she met Ethan coming out from inside the room just as she reached the door.Anna's face stiffened, "Where's Samantha?"Ethan, expressionless, said, "Jade will arrive shortly, I will investigate the truth myself. You go down, I'll follow."Anna, unwilling to give up, asked again, "Where's Samantha?"Ethan's sharp eyes narrowed, cold stars flickering, "I don't like to repeat myself."Understanding her son's temperament, Anna, though reluctant, had to take Suzy downstairs again.Suzy stood at the staircase, tilting her head, staring persistently at the master bedr
After the family recognized each other, Charlotte, Alexander, and Noah returned to Chelsea Creek. Elliot and Grandpa Miller stayed at home. After a bit of fussing, the three kids finally fell asleep. Samantha sat by the bedside, gently stroking their little heads, her heart filled to the brim with an unprecedented sense of contentment. After watching for a while, Samantha bent down and kissed each of them on the forehead before reluctantly leaving the room. Ethan leaned against the corridor wall, his long legs elegantly crossed, his eyes fixed on her without blinking. Seeing her coming out, he strode over. "Wanna talk?" he asked. Samantha nodded in agreement. The two returned to the room. Ethan hugged her from behind, resting his chin on her neck, and said hoarsely, "Samantha, let's get married!" The sudden proposal left Samantha somewhat bewildered. She stiffened and asked, "Why do you want to marry me? Because I'm the mother of your three children?" If it was just because
Hearing their tearful words, Samantha's heart ached. She hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? Why are you crying? Who bullied you?" Alex sobbed, "Mommy, you are our biological mother." Samantha had always known that they wanted her to be their biological mother, but she didn't take their words seriously, thinking they just missed her. She said gently, "Silly children, even though I'm not your biological mother, I've always treated you as my own." Especially after finding out that Elliot was Suzy's son, and considering the ominous situation regarding Alex and Noah's birth mother, she cherished them even more. From then on, she no longer had any concerns about interacting with them as she did before. Alex let go of her and hurriedly explained, "No, you are our biological mother in terms of blood relationship." Samantha asked puzzled, "Who told you that?" She didn't remember giving birth to a pair of twin sons. Noah said, "Fath
After the meal, Samantha couldn't wait to go home. She retrieved her phone from her bag and opened the recording app.Soon, Suzy's voice filled the room:"How could you be with Samantha?""I don't care why you're with Samantha. If you dare to tell her about our relationship, I won't be polite to you.""...""Stop pretending. You know what I'm talking about! If you dare to reveal our relationship, I will make sure you have nowhere to hide. I've killed your father, and I won't hesitate to kill you too.""It's best if you don't acknowledge me! Remember what you said. I'm not your mother, and you're not my son. We are two strangers who don't know each other. If our relationship is discovered by others, I will make sure you find your father in hell soon, and Samantha will be in trouble again."The recording ended.The phone fell silent.Samantha widened her eyes in disbelief, her face
The mother and sons hugged each other tenderly for a while before Alex and Noah pulled Samantha inside.Confused, Samantha turned to Ethan and asked, "What's going on? Is my case resolved? Am I innocent?"Ethan remained silent, sitting on the sofa with a cold expression.Alex held Samantha's hand and explained, "Mommy, do you know how much effort Daddy put in to save you? He went to great lengths to get the dashcam from Albert and then found the programmer who deleted the records, forcing the programmer to recover the records for that day. That's how you were released without charges. Otherwise, you would still be locked up in detention."Surprised, Samantha looked at Ethan, unable to believe that he had actually saved her.She moved her lips slightly and slowly uttered two words, "Thank you."Ethan's icy expression began to melt visibly. He glanced at Samantha faintly.Although he still looked proud, Samantha knew that he was in a go
To find out Samantha's situation, Alex and Noah did not stay for dinner.After hurriedly bidding farewell to everyone, the two of them took a taxi directly to a private detective agency, where they paid a hefty sum to hire a detective to investigate Samantha's situation.They knew that even if they went back to ask their father, he wouldn't tell them the truth.So, they decided to take matters into their own hands.Private detectives have extensive networks, and in less than half an hour, they had tracked down Samantha's whereabouts."Samantha, female, twenty-three years old, the eldest daughter of Lloyd Miller, the CEO of the Miller Group. She was taken away by the police for murder last night and is currently being held in custody."After saying this, the detective handed over the data and photos that were transmitted to the computer to Noah and Alex."Take a look, is this the person?"Alex and Noah's hearts were pounding as
Jade nodded, confirming, "Yes."Ethan squinted, a layer of frost enveloping him.Albert took away the dashcam?What does he want to do?And what does this have to do with him?Seeing his thoughts, Jade asked, "Boss, should I have someone investigate?"Ethan shook his head, "No need, you can leave!"Jade asked in surprise, "What about Miss Samantha?"Ethan lazily leaned back in his chair, slender fingers playing with a pen, lips slightly curved as he scoffed, "What about her? If the police station calls saying she wants to see me, then you can come find me."Jade was first stunned, then realized.Ethan was planning to make Samantha apologize first?Recently, Samantha deliberately kept her distance from Ethan in order to marry Justin, which had put Ethan in a very bad mood lately.As a high-end hunter, he naturally wouldn't take the initiative, just waiting for the other party to 'fall into the trap' w
Sarah confirmed repeatedly, "Is Charlotte's mother named Samantha?"The principal took out her phone, pulled up the information, and nodded. "Yes, Charlotte's mother is indeed named Samantha."Sarah's expression became even more unpleasant, her mood more complex than ever. "When was Elliot taken back by Charlotte's mother? Why is he at Charlotte's house?"The principal recounted the whole story truthfully."Poor Elliot, when he first transferred to our school, he was withdrawn and ignored everyone, always sitting alone in the corner. Later, the teachers found signs of abuse on him. Through investigation, they found out that he had no mother since he was little, and his father was often drunk and abusive due to gambling. It's not easy for him to survive till now."Thinking that Sarah had donated a scholarship to Elliot, she must care about him and be a kind-hearted person. Therefore, she didn't hide anything and told Sarah the truth about Elliot's s
Albert nodded, assuring her, "Don't worry, no matter what it takes, I will get you out."Samantha's calm heart stirred slightly at Albert's words. She couldn't help but feel moved by his sincerity. However, her feelings were purely gratitude, nothing more."Mr. Davis, can you do me a favor?""What is it?""Could you contact Yurika for me and ask her to temporarily stay at my house to take care of my grandfather and the children? My grandfather is old and has limited experience. He can't always pick up and drop off the kids for me. As for my situation, you can tell her the truth. She's the person I trust the most so far."Albert readily agreed to her request.After chatting with his lawyer for a while and giving him a detailed understanding, Samantha was taken back to the detention center.Looking at the cold walls around her, Samantha felt helpless and fearful for the first time....Not long after Albert left, Suzy was
Samantha gathered her thoughts and hesitated for a moment before saying, "I have a witness."The police asked, "Who?"Samantha replied, "My sister, Suzy Miller, She invited me out that day, and we were together the whole afternoon. You can go ask her if you don't believe me.""Legally speaking, she's your sister, and her testimony cannot be used as evidence."Samantha forced herself to remain calm. "There's a dashcam in her car. Her car broke down that day, so the dashcam should have recorded both of us."The two policemen exchanged a glance.The one who had been questioning her said, "According to procedure, you cannot leave for now. We'll go find Suzy and clarify the situation. If she can indeed prove your innocence, we'll release you immediately."After saying this, they had Samantha locked up
