Chapter 124 With that, she closed the door as her driver raced the van, tearing my heart from my chest. I grabbed my head with both hands and fell down, crying profusely.
âWhat have we done to deserve this? Please spare my childâs life. He is innocent!â
But my begging was overpowered by the loud noise of the engine, I was unable to plead properly for my son. That black was raced out of my Villa, and we couldnât do anything to stop it.
Henry and Bright were injured due to goonsâ blows, but they hurried towards my side and. helped me up.
âDonât worry, Laura. We will bring Zoe back!â
They dragged my limp body inside, worrying Jane, the remote control slipped from her hand as she gaped.
âWhat happened, mommy?
Why are you crying? And why is your coat ripped from the shoulder, daddy?â
She noticed that Henryâs nose was bleeding, so she quickly handed him a tissue box. I shoulders. dropped on the sofa like a lifeless corpse and slouched my âZoe has been kidnapped. Melody has deserted my womb again.â
Brightly briefly explained the situation to my confused daughter, she covered her mouth. with her small hand to stifle an involuntary gasp.
âZoe is my real brother? We have the same mommy and daddy.
I knew it!
Aunt Melody canât be his mother. She never loved him.â
Disconnecting the call, Leo entered the living room, he used his police. His voice was laced with remorse as he said, Other cell phone to contact Aptor 1245 Even a child can tell that Melody isnât Zoeâs mother, And I couldnât see through her lies. I am such a failure!
My son is in danger because of my foolishness.
Leo looked defeated: the darkness of desolation shadowed his gloomy face. But a surge of fire emerged from the depths of my heart to see him; I could only yell at him to vent out my vexation.
âIf anything happens to my son, I will personally send you to hell, Leo.â
As Leo had informed the police, they arrived at my Villa, checking the CCTV footage of the security cameras. The number plate of the van and faces of the goons were a good start to this investigation.
Officer Smith recorded our statements and uttered formal sentences to pacify us, but I didnât buy it. There was a primitive voice in the back of my head, pinching me that there was still more to this drama. Melody couldnât stop at a mere kidâs kidnapping.
Officer Smith agreed with me, âYou are right, Miss Laura. Technically speaking, if Melody really wanted to kill Zoe, she could have done it here. There wasnât any need for painstaking efforts for abduction.
She must have ulterior motives behind this conduct.
Please stick to your phones, our officers will be on duty to track any ransomâs call.â
Hearing this, Leo contacted his manager to arrange for money immediately.
âMelody is a greedy woman. I will fill her mouth with gold for the sake of my sonâs freedom.
She wonât harm Zoe!â
His loveâstruck statement seemed meaningless to me, but it wasnât time to concentrate on fruitless matters. I tugged Henryâs arm, who was busy on his cell phone.
âBrother, can you details,â
call Melody? She works in our dadâs company. You must have her contact Funnily enough, Melody was still feasting on m parentsâ favors even after destroying my life. So, I thought that Henry could talk to her out of her madness.
However, Henry sighed, rubbing his temple.
âI have already tried her number. Itâs switched off, Laura.
But a strange video has been uploaded on her social media account just now.â
As siblings, we thought in the same direction and figured out Melodyâs next course of action. She posted a thirtyâminuteâlong video for public attention.
âHello, I am Melody Spencer, theoâs girlfriend and fiancé. I am here to seek your help today, netizens!â
The innocence etched on her delicate yet full of makeâup face twisted my gut, I felt disgusted by her. The officer ordered the IT staff to locate her tracks through digital footprints as we watched her video for a clue.
âYou all must have known that I went to jail for severe charges, Leoâs exâwife accused me of torturing her.
I didnât say anything back then, but tonight, I will reveal the truth behind the whole story.â
