Chapter 100
The Love that Never Really Dies
Sharon had never seen Sasha this distressed. She heaved a sigh and held her niece in her arms.
âListen to me, Sasha. We will find him. I will make sure we find Matteo.â Sasha nodded and
composed herself. Her aunt's words echoed like a beacon of hope in the storm. Sharon's
appearance was like the light at the end of the tunnel for Sasha. She knew Aunt Sharon would be
able to help her. Sharon was the only reason why the Wand family could survive after they went
bankrupt. She was also the one who dealt with the mess Sasha created for the whole family. Sasha
was confident her aunt would be able to help her this time. After a whole night of investigation,
Sharon and her lot found out that someone had kidnapped Matteo.
âYeah, I swear I saw the boy. He was on his tablet when a black van drove up next to him. A man
came down and covered his mouth before dragging him into the car.â The stranger told them
everything he saw and even described accurately what Matteo was wearing and the bag he carried
when he was pulled into the car. Sasha almost fainted when she found out Matteo was kidnapped.
No mother would be able to take the agony of losing her child to a kidnapper. They treasured their
children like their own lives, and they would protect their children with their lives. Sasha lay in
Sharon's car until the break of the day. She opened her eyes gradually when the first ray of the
morning sun struck her face. After a short rest, her throat was sore and parched. âI hope you feel
refreshed. We need to make a police report today and ask them to look into this,â
Sharon said when she saw Sasha finally awake. The police? Sasha was still feeling groggy after a nap.
Everything happened so quickly yesterday it took her some time to recall everything. When she
finally came around, she sat up in alarm and shook her head. âNo, we can't go to the police. He will
find out about it if I make a police report. I will look for Matt myself!â She opened the car door and
dashed out, disheveled and not even knowing where she was going. âSasha Wand! Come Back!
What do you think you're doing?â Sharon jumped off the car and raced towards her when she saw
Sasha running away. Gosh, does she have to be so quick? Damn it! Sharon lost Sasha after running
after her for about five minutes. Panting heavily, Sharon went back to her car and made for the
police station. She knew who Sasha was trying to hide from.
She did not want the child's father, Sebastian, to find out about it. If this spiraled out of control, the
news would reach his ears. But Sharon could not afford to worry about that anymore. The police
were their final resort. This could well involve a whole ring of human traffickers and the police would
have to step in if this was the case. They would put Matteo's photo online and asked the community
to help look for the missing child. Anyone who knew Sebastian had a son would easily recognize
Matteo. ââ Little did Sharon and Sasha know, despite them trying all they could to hide it from
Sebastian, he had already received a call from the kidnappers in the morning right after he woke up.
âMorning,
Mr. Hayes. Did you sleep well yesterday? Or were you up worrying about your missing child? Do you
miss him?â The mechanical voice on the phone sounded heavily altered, but still, the insolence in
the kidnappers voice was conspicuous. Sebastian looked at the sleeping child from the corner of his
eyes and hung up without saying a word. That's crazy! He let off a grunt and went to wash up in the
bathroom. After getting a change, he headed downstairs, only to see the bodyguard he dispatched
yesterday waiting for him by the staircase. âMr. Hayes, we found out where lan was yesterday. He
went to Old Town.â Old Town? Sebastian's brows furrowed. âWhy did he go to Old Town?"
The bodyguard evaded his questioning glare. âWe're not sure why he went there But we found him
going in and out of a rental apartment. And the apartment belongs to Ms. Wand.â âWho? Sasha?"
The air suddenly became cold in the living room. So lan went to her place last night. Why is he so
fond of her? Did she cast a spell on him or something? I can't allow this to go on. lan ran away without
telling any of us yesterday, who knows what he will do in the future? Anger clouded Sebastian's face
as he thought about Sasha. âCall Luke and ask him to get that woman out of Avenport. I don't want
to see her again!â Opposite Sebastian, the bodyguard raised his brows in surprise. Get her out of
Avenport? Aren't you the one who brought her back in the first place? Now you're asking us to get rid
of her after everything you've done to get her back? The bodyguard was totally befuddled.
