Chapter 1557 How could he not have noticed that Harry was so insane before? "As long as you are willing to trust me, this time I will not let you down," Edwin stared at Joanne with tenderness and promised. Even Ada had goose bumps as she listened. Joanne's body gradually warmed up, but she still dared not respond. After all, Tail was still in the kidnappers’ hands, so she stammered, "I'll send you the kidnapper's number. He said he would call back in four hours to say where to put the money and specially told me not to call the police..." Edwin didn’t try to get Joanne's answer again because he wanted to use actions to prove his words. At present, Edwin was not sure if Harry had anything to do with the kidnapping, but he asked his men to guard Harry anyway.Instead of confiscating Harry’s cell phone, Edwin sent someone to follow Harry 24 hours a day, even when Harry went to the toilet. As soon as Harry was found to have the slightest connection with the kidnappers, he wou
Chapter 1558Ada originally hated Edwin and thought he was scum.However, when she saw Edwin gently caressing Joanne's cheek with affectionate eyes just now, Ada was touched.Last night Edwin and Ada's brother fought, and they were both hurt quite badly. Ada's brother still lay in the hospital, but Edwin didn't say a word and personally led the team to save Tail...Although she thought so, Ada was determined not to help Edwin. "Your eyes are bloodshot. When Tail is rescued later, you must be worried and watch her all the time, so we didn't wake you up to let you rest more.""It's so dangerous. Tail must be terrified. I have to go. What if she runs around and gets struck by the bullets?" Joanne hurriedly changed her clothes and shoes and then ran out.Knowing that she couldn't stop Joanne, Ada followed her to the kidnappers' place....In the suburbs, in an old abandoned factory, the air was filled with a pungent smell of dye, accompanied by a musty odor.Less than fifty meters
Chapter 1559The kidnappers looked at each other. Although Tail would be killed, before they got the money, they had to ensure her safety. Otherwise, if Joanne wanted to hear Tail's voice, it would be tricky.So Scarface asked, "Captain, how should we deal with the little girl?""It's just a tummy ache. It's not like she's dying of cancer. Are you going to find a doctor for her?"Scarface was embarrassed. "This is the middle of nowhere. Where can I find a doctor?""I really feel bad..." Tail listened to their conversation, looking at them pitifully with wet eyes. "Even if you can't find a doctor, can you untie me? I can't breathe."The kidnappers' first reaction was to refuse. Although the little girl was short, if she escaped, it would be very troublesome.Tail's small face was red, her forehead was sweaty, and her hands were tied behind her back. She looked as if out of breath. The leader of the kidnappers frowned and finally agreed."Untie her."Tail whimpered. After she wa
Chapter 1560The kidnapper's face was pale from the violent impact on his abdomen, and he arched his back on the ground, unable to say a word for a long time.Edwin did not let him go, half squatting in front of the kidnapper. Edwin pressed the tip of his shoe against the kidnapper's neck, easily making him unable to breathe. The kidnapper's face was twisted in pain, and above his head, Edwin asked menacingly, "Let me repeat it. Where is my daughter?""I'll tell you..." The kidnapper held Edwin's trouser leg with both hands and said with difficulty, "She ran away from there... We didn't do anything to her. Please let me go..."Edwin didn't have time to continue interrogating who had hired them. He handed the man over to Eason."Mr. Atherton, don't worry. I will get everything he knows out of him," Eason said with a fake smile.After so many years as a bodyguard, he was becoming more and more intimidating.Ignoring Scarface's shriek, Edwin walked to the small hole. Indeed, it see
Chapter 1561"Forget about them. Let's go back first, okay?"They drove back toward the city. The road was bumpy, and Tail stopped talking after getting in the car. Afraid that Tail was traumatized, Joanne told her many stories of brave heroines.Gradually, Tail felt safe. "They are very awesome.""So are you, Tail..." Joanne gently wiped away Tail's tears and coaxed her.Tail hung her head in embarrassment. She felt she was not awesome enough because she was scared at the sight of blood and Edwin rushing in with an angry face.In terror, she subconsciously ran away from there, but luckily, she met her mom.At this time, Joanne's cell phone rang.Seeing that Joanne was holding Tail with both hands, Ada took the initiative to answer it. The person on the other end of the line was Edwin. Ada mouthed at Joanne."Did you pick up Tail? How is she? Was she hurt?" Edwin asked eagerly and nervously.Joanne could hear his concern. "We've picked up Tail. She was not hurt, but she was s
Chapter 1562Previously, Edwin thought that Tail was Joanne and Patrick's daughter, but now Edwin looked closely at Tail, feeling that she resembled him.Tail's small nose, big eyes, beautiful lips...Edwin smiled tenderly as he walked up to Joanne and Tail."I've come to take you two home."Joanne was taken aback by the familiar sexy voice from behind her. She turned her head and saw Edwin and Lucas.Seeing the expectant smile on Edwin's face, Joanne thought for a moment and said, "Tail has just been rescued. I want her to stay in a familiar environment."The moment he was refused, Edwin's handsome face darkened slightly, but he restrained his temper and said, "Then how long do you plan to stay?""It depends on Tail's condition.""Are you deliberately avoiding me?" Edwin's voice carried dissatisfaction. He stared at Joanne, saying, "Tail is my daughter, and you are my wife. We're a family. I promised to get Tail back. Do you still not believe my feelings for you?"Joanne fel
Chapter 1563Certainly, Edwin felt frustrated, but he didn't give up. "Tail, I'm not a bad guy. I'm your daddy." Edwin showed the most flattering smile, but it was too fawning to look sincere. "You're lying!" Tail didn't believe him. She didn't like the fawning smile on Edwin's face. When she did live stream, sometimes she would force a smile which was much more natural than the one on Edwin's face right now. Tail turned her head away from him and muttered, "My stepfather is Jack, not you." Edwin was speechless. Tail then clung to Joanne. With a blushed face, she pouted and said, "Mama, I don't like it when you kiss him. Don’t kiss him again!" Joanne let out a light cough of embarrassment. She couldn’t believe she had let Edwin kiss her in front of Tail and Ada! "Let me give you a kiss too." Joanne gave Tail a quick kiss on the forehead. Tail pouted. She was not happy. 'Why did the bad guy kiss Mama on the lips, but Mama only kissed me on the forehead?' Ada
Chapter 1564Edwin froze. He narrowed his eyes and raised his eyebrows, a wicked smile at the corner of his mouth. "Why are you so needy all of a sudden?" Realizing that Edwin got the wrong idea, Joanne said in embarrassment, "Why are you taking off your pants? I'm asking for your jacket." The sound of the belt buckle popping open was particularly clear in the quiet car. Edwin answered, "You told me to take off my clothes. I usually take off my pants first." Joanne knew Edwin was deliberately teasing her. She rolled her eyes at him and said, "Tail won't like your pants. They're stinky." Edwin then realized that Joanne wanted to put his jacket over Tail's body. It was late at night. Even with the heat in the car, Tail might easily catch a cold. Edwin hurriedly took the opportunity to familiarize Tail with his smell and immediately covered his jacket over Tail. Tail seemed to sense the smell she didn't like in her sleep, and she grumbled a little, but she didn't ope
