Chapter 121 You’re My Real Mommy?

~Gerald~“Hit me with the good news first.”Hearing that, I opened a document on my phone. “Earlier today, I finally traced the account that sent money to Luke. But it was closed down yesterday.”“Really?” She took the phone from me. “Who owns the account?”“Amani. Apparently, she opened it under a pseudonym in another country with less strict banking laws.”“I knew it!”Rosemary zoomed in and out of the document. Afterward, she looked up. “So what’s the bad news?”I exhaled. “I already sent the proof of the transaction to the police, but they refused to take it.”“What? Why would they do that?”“They gave no good reason. Something about it being obtained illegally. Besides, I found that they aren’t prioritizing the case. I suspect foul play.”Rosemary shot to her feet, slapping the table. “Those two thieves must have bribed them. But how could the police be so corrupt!”“And Max. Didn’t he act like he knew nothing about the theft the other day? Why is he still helping Amani?” she add

Chapter 122 Liar, Liar, Pants On Fire!

~Rosemary~My heart thumped against my chest as soon as I saw Henny standing at the top of the stairs. I took a step forward, but my leg felt heavier than lead. “Henny…”“Are you my mommy?” Henny asked again. “I thought you were my auntie.”“She is!”Before I could blink, Max walked up the stairs. He squatted before Henny and held his small shoulders. “She is your auntie, all right?”Henny looked away from him. His eyes were narrowed as he addressed me. “I just heard you say that your sister stopped you from being a mother to your son and that you came here for him. I am the only kid here, so it’s me right?”He pointed at himself. “I am the son, right?”I clutched my chest. Nodding with tears in my eyes, I said, “Yes, Henny. You are my son!”“Rosemary!” Max shouted.At that moment, I felt Gerald’s grip on my shoulders. He pushed me up the stairs. I swallowed hard, looking at Henny’s confused eyes.“Are you not my auntie anymore? Did you marry my daddy?”Ignoring the harsh stare I wa

Chapter 123 I Did It

~Rosemary~As Amani slowly turned around, I picked Henny up and hugged him. “Did you come here to aggravate him? He's just a child. My child!”Amani chuckled. “Your child? Why don't you let the judge be THE JUDGE of that?”“It doesn't matter what the verdict is,” I said, covering Henny’s ear as he rested his head on my shoulder. “It doesn't matter how many gifts you get him, I will always remain his mother. You made me lose so many—”Amani rolled her eyes. “Oh, please. Tell me something I haven't heard before.”“What’s going on here?”I looked up the stairs, only to see Susan wearing a long dress with a gray coat wrapped around her body. Her face looked a little thinner than usual.“Are you okay, Susan?” I asked, feeling a little guilty for staying mad at her since the truth came out about her fake illness.She smiled at me faintly. “I am. It’s just the cold. I am too old for it.”“How…how about I make you a cup of hot tea?”She waved. “I would love that. But first…”“Why are you here

Chapter 124 That's Suspicious

~Gerald~“I think we should go home. I kinda feel something—”“Did you see that?” My hand froze in the air as I was about to reach for Rosemary. I saw that her eyes were widened in shock. But she wasn't looking at me. Tracing her line of vision, I realized who she was looking at.“Did you see that?” she asked again.I frowned in confusion. “See what?”“Amani.” She sprang to her feet again. “Amani just said she was the one responsible for the judge’s car accident.”I turned to look at Amani sharply. Sure enough, she was smiling mischievously. But that wasn't a first for her. It was either that or a scowl. “I think you are mistaken, Rose. She couldn't possibly have—”“Yes. She could! I know my sister. She would do anything to win. She stole my baby, remember?”I held Rosemary’s waist out of the blue. “Where are you going?”Rosemary stopped, then looked down at my arm. “To confront her of course.”“You can't do that. Causing a scene here is not good for the case.”“So I should just let

Chapter 125 Kidnapped

~Gerald~Who's this?My brows knitted as I read the text over and over again. The number didn't seem familiar at all. More so, there were no records of it in my call log.As I wondered who it was, I dialed the number and pressed the phone against my ear. The next second, I heard a beeping tone.“What’s this?”Frowning even more, I texted the number back. “May I know who you are?”My eyes widened as soon as I hit send. A red exclamation mark had just appeared beside it, indicating that it had failed to send.What the hell is happening? Why can't I text back or even call?My senses tingled at this moment. Something wasn't right. What did this person mean by they had something of mine? Did…did this have to do with Rosemary?After yet another failed attempt to get through to Rosemary, I called Elvis again. “Hey, track down my wife’s phone. Like right now!”Again, I stayed on the line. “What’s taking so long?” I asked impatiently.Elvis soon replied, “Boss, she's at the city mall close t

Chapter 126 Who Sent You?

~Rosemary~My head felt like lead and my mind was foggy as I slowly regained consciousness. Immediately, I heard the humming sound of a car engine and I felt the company of two people beside me. Who are these people? What did they do to me? And where are they taking me?After a long time, I finally managed to open my eyes. I looked on both sides only to find two masked men looking straight ahead. I tried to lift my hand to fight them, but I was paralyzed from the neck down. I couldn’t even move a muscle.As I was still contemplating what to do next, the car slowly came to a halt. I shut my eyes the second one of the men turned his head. I was dragged out of the car.As I dangled over a shoulder, I peeked a little, but all I could see were black granite floors and heavy shoes. The man dropped me on a wooden chair a while later. With my eyes still shut, I felt something wrap my wrists and ankles tightly. Were they tying me up?I opened my eyes to peek again. Unfortunately, a black ba

Chapter 127 Angel Roman

~Gerald~“Where’s my wife! I know you have her!” I shouted.His evil smile became even wider as he said, “Tsk, tsk! Is that how to say hi to an old friend, Gerald?”I slapped the dashboard of the car. “I’m gonna make your life a living hell! If you as much as hurt a single hair on her head, I will—““Easy with the threats, dude,” he laughed, flashing his extremely white teeth. “Do you know how long I spent looking for you? Allow me to enjoy this moment for a bit, would ya?”“Fuck you!”He threw his head back and laughed. “You have changed quite a lot, Gerald. You even got married and I saw you on TV earlier with the Mrs. Clay… After so many years of hiding!”“Where’s my wife!” I roared again.In an instant, the smile on his face disappeared. “Where’s my hard drive?”I paused, the image of what he wanted appearing in my mind. This man was none other than Angel Roman, a long-time enemy of mine.I had met him over a decade ago as a wretched teenager. My mother had just been murdered and

Chapter 128 Tracing Her

~Gerald~Angel’s evil laugh rang in my ears even after I hung up the phone. I felt so pissed, mad, and worried. I looked at the photo of Rosemary once more. “Hold on, my love. I will come get you soon.”I rushed back home. Without waiting to hear from Elvis, I got behind my computer and began tracking down Rosemary. When I gave her that ring almost four years ago, I had hoped I wouldn’t have to track her down because of something like this. Now, my greatest fear had come to pass. Rosemary was in danger because of me. I couldn’t afford to lose anyone else, especially not the love of my life. Rolling up my sleeves, I made use of all my tracking inventions. Elvis had mentioned he was having trouble because the signal kept getting jammed, and it was true. Maybe Angel kept her in a technologically fortified place. Nonetheless, I bypassed it in no time. I leaped to my feet, grabbing a jacket on the way out. As soon as I got into the car Elvis sent over, Rosemary’s phone rang. “Hey, g

Chapter 129 Wounded

~Gerald~The man holding Angel’s glass fell to the ground with a thud. The glass shattered beside him.I ducked, holding the back of my head as it ached badly. I heard many other muffled shots coming from the abandoned buildings close by. More bodies dropped left and right.“You swine!” Angel cursed at me, ducking too.I smiled. “Surprise, surprise!”Angel’s jaw throbbed. He looked at his men who were now lying on the ground and gritting in pain. Then he looked up, trying to figure out where the bullets were coming from.“Not so fast!” I roared, leaping to my feet when Angel made a move.He picked up a steel pipe and threw it towards me. I dodged it, accidentally stepping on one of the men who screamed like a little girl.“Where’s my wife?” Angel flashed me an evil smile. “Where you will never find her!”I picked up a steel pipe and took a swipe at him. But my movement was rather weak.Angel caught it and pulled it away from my grip. “Ow!” I staggered back, holding the side of my he

Chapter 130 Can I Call You Satan?

~Rosemary~“Hello, sleeping beauty.”A shiver went up my spine when I heard that cool but menacing voice. I closed my eyes and opened them again, straining to see the figure that was in front of me.After a few seconds, my eyes narrowed in on a devilishly handsome face. The man smiled, showing off a set of immaculate white teeth. He tilted his head and looked at me with a pair of dark green eyes. On his left eyebrow was a sharp slit that gave his innocent eyes a dangerous but cute look.“You have been out for a whole day. For a second there, I thought you were not going to wake up.”I jerked. “Who…who are you?”He straightened up. Only then did I notice that I was no longer in that heap of trash. I was on a bed that had faded sheets.Not only that, my wrist was cuffed to the metal headboard.“Get this off me! Let me go!” I cried. “Please!”The man slapped his chest. “Ouch! We’ve only just met and you want to leave so soon?”“That’s not fair,” he added.Wincing, I tried prying the han
