Fortunately, the maid didn't ask any questions. She led Snow to Eden's room as she was instructed. Eden was peacefully laying in a crib under the supervision of a nanny."You may take a break. I'd like to spend time with Eden alone. If I need any help, I'll call for you," Snow told the nanny."Yes, Mrs. Valor," replied the nanny before leaving the room.Now alone with Eden, Snow retrieved a small vial of medicine from her pocket along with a cloth. She meticulously sprinkled the medicine onto the cloth, ensuring an even distribution, and then covered the baby's mouth and nose with it.The baby appeared uncomfortable. Although her eyes remained shut, her mouth opened, emitting a few whimpering sounds before falling silent.Snow carefully released her grip on the cloth. The cloth had been soaked with a potent anesthetic. This was to ensure that the baby would not make any noise when she was brought out of the mansion.Snow quickly unfolded a concealed backpack and gently placed t
When Weston entered the mansion, a disconcerting thought crossed his mind. He had noticed a hint of panic on "Serenity's" face when she spotted his car earlier. Panic?Why would she panic? The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. Hastily, he dialed Jackson's number.Before he could say anything, he heard a woman's voice on the other end ask, "Jack, who's calling?"Is that... Serenity?! Though the voice sounded distant and slightly muffled through the phone, only Serenity would call Jackson "Jack"!If Serenity was currently with Jackson, then who was the "Serenity" he ran into outside?!With this unsettling thought in mind, Weston asked urgently, "Jackson, was Serenity with you the whole time? Did she come back to the Stanton Residence earlier?"There was a momentary pause before Jackson replied, "She was with me the entire time and never left. What's wrong?""Just now, a woman claiming to be Serenity came to the Stanton Residence and left almost immediately wit
Could the person who took Eden from the Stanton Residence be... Snow?!She turned towards Lucas, only to find his brow furrowed and a hint of suspicion in his eyes. Clearly, Lucas had also made the same guess."Does the Stanton Residence have surveillance cameras? Retrieve the footage of that woman for me, please," Lucas said to Jackson as they disembarked from the boat.Jackson raised an eyebrow. "Have you figured something out?""I want to confirm if it's someone I know!" Lucas replied with a fierce glint in his eyes.If it was indeed Snow, he would definitely make her pay!Jackson called Weston and soon received the video footage of the woman in question. Lucas and Coco watched the footage together. They immediately recognized the woman – it was indeed Snow!"It really is her!" Lucas gritted his teeth."Who is she?" Jackson asked."A woman I saved overseas. She came to Solaria not long ago, but I told her to go back abroad. I never expected her to stoop this low!" Lucas
Eden was taken away when she’s still so small, and... she's a premature baby! Her body was weaker than full-term babies, and Serenity had no idea what the person who took Eden wanted! The thought of her fragile, premature baby being taken away by Snow in a large backpack filled Serenity with anxiety. There was no sound of her daughter crying, which only heightened her unease. She feared that something had happened to her little one.Jackson and Weston utilized their connections and resources to search for Snow throughout the city. Lucas did the same.The weight of his remorse far outweighed Weston's because Snow was a person he had saved.By evening, the police uncovered new leads. Someone had collaborated with Snow in the kidnapping, and it was discovered that she had rented a house nearby to monitor the Stanton Residence. When Lucas saw the photo of the person who had rented the house with Snow, he was shocked. It was Aubrey! The person conspiring with Snow was none other th
Coco took a deep breath and approached Lucas, pulling back his hand. "What are you doing?!" she asked.His knuckles were red from hitting the wall. "It's my fault Eden was kidnapped! It's all my fault" Lucas mumbled, his eyes filled with pain."No, you mustn't think that way. They're the culprits, not you," Coco anxiously replied."How can I not blame myself? If it weren't for my love for Serenity, they wouldn’t have targeted Serenity's baby. Serenity and Eden are suffering because I didn't handle things properly with them. It's all my fault!" Lucas' voice was hoarse.Coco's heart was pierced with pain. The one he loved was still Serenity. She knew that, and so did Aubrey and Snow.Therefore, Aubrey and Snow kidnapped Serenity's daughter to get revenge on Lucas. Coco had been ignoring the fact that Lucas loved Serenity. And now, this incident was mocking her negligence.However, compared to her pain, Lucas, Serenity, and Jackson must be in even greater pain right now – espe
"That's right, Eden will be alright. She'll definitely be alright," he whispered softly, trying to reassure himself with those words.-That evening, Harry Scott rushed over to the Stanton Residence after receiving a call from his son. The Scott family had a lot of connections in the local area, making their assistance in the search invaluable. Serenity and the others had helped Summer before, so Harry felt compelled to help them, whether as a gesture of gratitude or to ease his own conscience.Unfortunately, both Aubrey and Snow seemed to have vanished without a trace. Aubrey had already sent her parents out of the country, leaving them with no leads to follow. Two women and a baby could easily hide in a city. As time passed, everyone grew more anxious. The longer it took, the more dangerous it was for the hostage. There was an increasing concern that something might happen to Eden.Days went by with restless nights for everyone, particularly Serenity. She could barely
The phone was on speaker mode, allowing everyone in the living room to hear the conversation."Once the money is deposited into the account tomorrow, I’ll tell you where the baby is. However, you must come alone to retrieve the baby. No one else is allowed to come with you," Aubrey's voice echoed ominously from the phone."No problem," Coco replied, "I can go alone. But first, I must make sure that Eden is safe, or the money will not be transferred to your account. I request a video call right now so I can see her.""You can believe whatever you want. If we don't receive the money tomorrow, the baby won't survive!" Aubrey maliciously declared.Jackson stepped forward and addressed Aubrey, "If all you want is money, then let me confirm my daughter's safety. Money is not a problem. I only care about her safety. If my daughter is harmed in any way, I will find you, wherever you are, and I will make you suffer. I will find you even if you flee overseas!"Jackson's threat made Aubrey f
"I know." Coco gently patted on Serenity's shoulders. "You don't have to say anything. I'm sure you'd help me if I was in the same place."Serenity burst into tears and hugged Coco.Coco hugged Serenity back, comforting her gently, "Serenity, it'll be fine. I'll bring Eden back safely tomorrow.""You have to come back safe. I can't let anything happen to you too...""I'll come back safe too. We'll all be safe!" Coco soothed, wishing this storm would be gone quickly.All Coco needed to do was bring Eden back safely. Serenity would be happy, and Lucas would no longer be tormented by guilt and pain. Everything would be fine again!Jackson looked at his crying wife and thought Serenity had a good eye for making friends. He was impressed by Coco, who was busy comforting Serenity. Many would be desperate to earn a favor from the Valor family, but Coco turned it down without even thinking.Lucas, on the other hand, looked extremely worried. Coco had to pick up Eden tomorrow, so she w
