Chapter 1175
Married at First Sight
Serenity answered, âMy sister got a good hold on Sonny, and I gave the man a kick. The kidnapper gave up on Sonny and ran away.â
She turned over and looked in the direction of Elisaâs car before adding, âSonny is in Elisaâs car.â
Through the conversation between Serenity and Zachary, the Browns realized that Sonny was nearly taken too.
Mrs. Brown cried and shouted to see her grandson.
It was then Liberty took Sonny by the hands and got out of the car.
âSonny! Sonny!â
Mrs. Brown held onto Sonny, making sure her grandson was fine before choking with sobs. âThank goodness youâre okay. Thank goodness.â
âGrandmom.â
Seeing that the old lady had tears on her face, the little man reached out to wipe away her tears.
Mrs. Brown had never looked after Sonny, but Sonny was her only grandson, so of course, she adored him. With Sonnyâs caring gesture touching Mrs. Brownâs heart, she cuddled Sonny and had another bout of crying.
The Browns gathered around Sonny.
âStop crying, Mom. All is good now.â
Hank consoled his mother.
Rising to her feet, Mrs. Brown wiped her tears and turned around to give her son a push. She pointed her finger at her son. âItâs your fault. This wouldnât have happened if you twodidnât take the kids to the zoo.
âIt was a good thing Sonny asked Serenity to come along. Otherwise⦠I would suspect that you brought the children to the zoo to be kidnapped if you werenât Sonnyâs father and Lucasâs uncle.â
Mrs. Brownâs accusation washed the color off Jessicaâs face.
When Mrs. Brownâs angry eyes were fixated on her, Jessica struggled to refute, âI was only trying to bond with Sonny. No one would want this to happen.â
Mrs. Brown gave Jessica the stink eye, believing that the woman was bad luck.
Since her son married Jessica, nothing had gone well for the family. A simple trip to the zoo with Sonny ended up in a kidnap attempt.
These people were brazened to abduct children in public.
Embarrassed, Jessica hung her head low.
She looked hurt.
Feeling bad for his wife, Hank stood up for her, âItâs an accident, Mom. No one wishes for it to happen. I told Sonny early on that I would take him to the zoo. Why are you putting the blame on Jessica?â
âYou always come to her defense. Well, youâll regret it one day.â
Mrs. Brown glared at her son.
âLetâs go home, Liberty.â
Not one to stay for the Brown familyâs circus show, Serenity told her sister and went to pick Sonny up.
Zachary took Sonny from Serenityâs arms.
âUncle Zack.â
Sitting in his uncleâs embrace, the little man happily shared his experience at the zoo without knowing that he had escaped a disaster moments ago.
Zachary kissed the boy on the cheek and dotingly uttered, âIâll go with you when you want to see the animals again.â
With him around, no one would dare harm Sonny.
Today may look like an accident to the public, but Zachary and Clive suspected something more sinister.
