When Luke had received the phone call, he had just taken a shower and got into bed.
After hearing the news, he abruptly sat up in shock. âAre you kidding? Ms. Wand ran away with the
children? How is this possible?â
âDo you think Iâm kidding right now, Mr. Scott? Hurry up and find them at the airports, stations, piers,
everywhere. Just look carefully for every place that departs from Avenport! Mr. Hayes is going nuts!â
A bodyguard called Luke and told him about everything that had happened.
Luke was dumbstruck.
Did she really run away? Good grief, what is that crazy woman doing? Does she have to be so
dramatic?
He didnât dare to stay in bed anymore and immediately got off his bed to work.
However, what disappointed them the most that night was that they couldnât find Sasha and the
children, notwithstanding all hands on deck from Hayes Corporation.
Despite searching at the airports, harbors, train stations, and even the highways, there was no trace of
the missing mother and her children.
Furthermore, the people who searched within the city couldnât find them either.
Why? Did she just vanish into thin air?
In the meantime, Sebastian was waiting at the Blackwood family. After waiting until midnight and still no
news of them, he got up and immediately strangled Jackson.
âI will give you three more seconds. If you donât tell me where they are, I will kill you right now!â He
glared at Jackson murderously.
If Jackson still didnât speak up at that point, he would definitely be strangled to death.
Regardless of that, Jackson was fearless before Sebastianâs threats and scolded instead, âKill me if
you can! Let me tell you something, Sebastian. Even if I knew where sheâs at right now, I wouldnât tell
you either, you bas*ard!â
Crack!
âStop it!â Luckily, Sharon was there, and she rushed over to stop Sebastian instantly.
âSebastian, please calm down first. We know nothing about her disappearance nor your history with
her! Ever since she was injured and stayed with you, she sounded cheery whenever she contacted us.
How would we know that she would suddenly take off with the kids?â
Sebastian fell silent, and his pursed lips became paler.
Sharon continued, âTell us whatâs going on between you two so that we can look at it together. What do
you think?â She tried to let him explain the cause of this incident.
Sebastian sneered silently. Hmph! Do you think I would tell you?
Never!
Besides, I already knew the reason behind all these. It was because of what happened this afternoon!
At first, I thought she wasnât mad, but she was actually pretending to be okay before delivering the fatal
blow.
What a ruthless woman!
She completely disappeared in only a few hours, and I couldnât find her even if I searched through the
entire city. So what is this? She actually vanished into thin air and would never return?
At that moment, when he remembered what happened five years ago, he was deep in his
thoughts. Iâve been through a lot all these years, but Iâve never felt this powerless before.
This is driving me crazy! I canât even fight it!
âSebastian?â
Sebastian was lost in thought.
âMr. Hayes, I might have an idea of where she went.â
Suddenly, someone entered at that moment.
When Sharon turned to look, her expression changed drastically. âXenia? Why are you here? Who
asked you to come?â
It was Xenia Blackwood, their daughter.
Nonetheless, Xenia ignored her mother and walked directly toward Sebastian.
âMr. Hayes, my cousin was not an ordinary lady. When she faked her death that year, she managed to
pay off my motherâs massive amount of debt. Sheâs incredible.â
âXenia, what on earth are you blathering about? Shut up right now!â
âAm I wrong? Didnât she give you a lot of money back then? Donât worry. I wonât reveal her sponsorâs
name. I only want Mr. Hayes to find his son. After all, itâs his blood, and he couldnât be with otherâ¦â
Smack!
Without waiting for her to finish, the enraged Sharon stood up and slapped her daughter fiercely.
She is an embarrassment to the Blackwood family!
The chaotic living room became quiet once more.
But this time, because of Sharonâs words, the atmosphere grew more dangerous with every kind of
terror, and even looking at it felt horrifying.
âSebastian, donât listen to her. Sheâs just a girl, andâ¦â
âGo on!â
