In the end, Elvin, who was still out cold, was sent to the hospital to be resuscitated. Noah, on the other hand, was sent to the police to be detained.That night, the news of Noah kidnapping and planning to murder a child quickly made the headlines on the news and the internet."Has Noah gone mad? How could he do that to a child?""There are two types of men that I disrespect in this world. Those who bully women and those who harm children! Noah is no man!""Noah is truly heartless. That is his nephew! How could he do that to him?"Due to the negative impact of the incident, it naturally implicated the shares of Anderson Group. Many professionals predicted that their shares were most likely going to drop by nearly 20% when the market opened the following Monday.When Jane saw the news, she was so furious that she rolled her eyes. Noah was such an idiot! She had only been provoking him so that he would disrupt Stephen's date. Who would have thought that he planned to murder?
At the police station, Philip wheeled himself to look for a police officer. He wanted to see Noah.Once the police officer verified their identities, he took them to the interrogation room, where Noah was sitting on a chair.Before the officer could react, Philip wheeled himself over to Noah. Out of nowhere, Philip got a cane and fiercely hit Noah with it."You bastard! You're a monster!" Philip whipped Noah through gritted teeth. The police tried to stop him but got hit in the process too."Move aside! I'm going to whip this bastard to death today!""Mr. Anderson Senior, please calm down. We're at the police station. This isn't a place for you to execute your own punishment." The police officer persuaded Philip and took the can away. "We can understand how you feel, but please calm down.""Calm down? How do you want me to calm down? This bastard almost killed my great-grandson!" Philip pointed his trembling fingers at Noah. "H-How could you do this? How could we have such a
In the early hours, Stephen received a message from Julian. He took a glance at Yvonne, who was lying on the bedside to rest, and walked out of the room quietly.Julian was waiting in the corridor. At the sight of Stephen exiting the room, he hurried forward. "Mr. Anderson, how is Mr. Elvin?""He has a fever."Stephen looked a little exhausted. He frowned and asked, "Did Grandpa go to the police station last night?""Yes, apparently he went with a cane and gave Mr. Noah a good beating. "Mr. Anderson Senior was furious, and he was screaming and shouting at the police station, demanding that Mr. Noah pay the price."Julian sighed. "After seeing all this, Mr. Anderson Senior must be completely disappointed with Mr. Noah."Stephen was silent.Julian didn't dare add to the subject. Instead, he reported another something else. "Our people abroad couldn't find anything regarding Katie, so I retrieved her immigration records that day. "Katie left on a private jet. There are too many
Since Rachel was keeping Yvonne company, Stephen left with the excuse of getting breakfast. He wanted to give them some time alone to talk.After Stephen left, Rachel let out a sigh of relief. "I've known Stephen for quite some time now, but I'm still a little afraid of him every time I see him."Rachel put her hand on Yvonne's shoulder and said emotionally, "It's fortunate that you have him by your side after what happened yesterday. "Just seeing the news online was enough to make me feel terrified. I can only imagine what you felt yesterday. Vonnie, you must have had a rough time."Yvonne didn't respond. She was still looking at Elvin's face.Images from last night kept popping into her head. It was as if the pitch-black sea was still right before her eyes.She had always thought that she was strong enough. But the experience last night had shown her that she was just an ordinary person who could be overwhelmed by fear. She didn't dare look back at it, nor did she dare ima
Hazel stood up and glared at Yvonne and Stephen. "It's not enough that you harmed my younger son; now you're after one more. You never planned to let my family go from the start! "Yvonne, ever since you joined the Anderson family, I knew you were a troublemaker! I knew you would turn the whole Anderson family upside down! And look, I was right!""And you…" Hazel pointed her finger at Stephen. "You wouldn't let Noah go! You were the one who pushed him and made him like this! Mark my words!"Hazel suddenly raised her volume and screamed at the top of her lungs, "It will end badly for all of you! There will sooner or later be retribution for both of you!""Enough!" There was an angry bellow. Philip entered the room in his wheelchair. He signaled with his eyes to the bodyguards behind him to hold Hazel down. At the sight of the bodyguards rushing up to her, Hazel backed up in fear. "What… what are you doing?""I really didn't think that you would have the cheek to come cause a sc
"That's not important, as long as you are safe."Then, Stephen had an inexplicable sudden urge to reach out his hand to stroke Elvin, but he didn't know if he should do it or not.Yvonne seemed to have sensed it, so she pulled Stephen's hand and put it on Elvin's head. She smiled gently at Elvin. "Yes, he was the one who saved you."Elvin was stunned, then he awkwardly avoided Stephen's hand and mumbled, "Thank you."Seeing this, Yvonne wanted to say something else, but Stephen rested his other hand on her shoulder, signaling her not to. Yvonne sensed the awkward atmosphere between them, so she let it go. Elvin's personality was too much like Stephen's. Stubborn and headstrong. There was still a long way to go before they got along well together.Now that Elvin has come around, the top priority was for him to properly recuperate. The others could wait. "Mommy," Elvin called out, looking at Yvonne again. "What about that bad uncle?"Yvonne came to her senses. She replied q
The next day, a police officer entered Elvin's room. They only came out after about an hour. Yvonne was worried about Elvin's condition, so she rushed into the room immediately. Stephen stayed outside to talk to the officer. "Was Elvin's testimony clear?""He had a clear head. He even remembered another detail at the last moment."The officer didn't elaborate further or share that Elvin had remembered the details of how Noah had accidentally strangled Katie out of self-defense. This case was a matter of life or death, and they still needed to further investigate, so they couldn't reveal too much information. After shaking hands with Stephen, the officer said politely, "Thank you for your cooperation. We'll be in contact again should the need arise.""Alright."After the police left, he made a call to Julian, "How's the investigation over at the bar?""It's been too long. The private room that Mr. Noah was in has probably been cleaned many times. Even the surveillance foota
The next morning, there was a rainstorm in Northerna City. Luckily, Thomas was staying in a hotel near the hospital, so it only took Yvonne a five-minute drive to get there. Thomas had been accompanied by Howard's people. The two men were still standing guard outside the room, afraid that any mishap might happen.At the sight of Yvonne, they quickly went up to greet her. "Ms. Y, Thomas was like a madman the moment he reached the hotel. It took quite an effort for us to lock him in the room.""You've done well."Yvonne gave them a wad of cash. "This is for you. Once everything's settled, I'll get Howard to reward you with a bonus. "In the meantime, keep a close watch on Thomas. If there's anything you need, just say the word."The men accepted the cash happily. "Don't worry, we'll do as commanded."Then, Yvonne entered the room. She saw Thomas being tied up on a chair. "What happened to him?""Early this morning, he tried to escape by breaking the window with the chair when
