Chapter 1077 She Is A Kidnapper Yumi saw Zophie holding a wet towel and cried out in warning, âSheâs a kidnapper, Sophia! Quick, run!â Upon hearing that, Sophia instinctively jerked her head around. At once, Zophieâs malicious countenance entered her line of sight.
âN-No...â Dropping the bubble machine in her hand, Sophia whirled around to sprint away.
Zophieâs eyes glinted maliciously. She clapped the drug-doused wet towel over Sophiaâs mouth. Merely two to three seconds later, Sophia passed out on the ground after inhaling the specialty drug.
âSophia!â Yumi never expected the woman to do such a thing to Sophia, and she inevitably stood frozen on the spot. Should I stay and save Sophia or try to flee and phone Mommy to have her save Sophia?
She was so anxious that tears shimmered in her eyes. After a momentâs hesitation, she decided to attempt an escape. With my efforts alone, I wonât be able to save Sophia. That aside, Iâm also likely to lose my life!
Having thought things through, she took to her heels. Zophie narrowed her eyes, hissing through gritted teeth, âYou want to run?
Iâve finally found you, so where do you think youâre going?â
Yumi heard what Zophie said, but she already had no other way out right then. All she could do was speed up and try her best to lose the woman.
However, a five-year-old child couldnât possibly outrun an adult no matter how well-developed her muscles were. In no time, Zophie grabbed her collar from behind.
âL-Let go of me! What do you want?â Yumi shrieked, her eyes red-rimmed.
âI was actually targeting that little girl, but I unexpectedly found you here. What a stroke of luck! I didnât have to expend any effort at all. Youâre far more valuable than that little girl!â Zophieâs lips curved into a sneer.
âLet... go of me!â Yumi flailed her limbs. Unwilling to admit defeat, she snarled, âOur mommy will never let you go when she knows youâre treating me and Sophia in such a manner!â
âMommy?â Zophie was promptly startled.
Seemingly realizing her slip of the tongue, Yumi hastily zipped her mouth and said nothing further.
Zophie, on the other hand, slowly got the picture. She stared at Yumi, her smile turning all the more sinister. âLike Sophia Bowers... you call that woman âMommy?â It looks like I really shouldnât have underestimated her. No wonder we couldnât find you even after searching every inch of Chanaea. It turns out that she hid you away and spirited you to Loang, putting you right under our noses!â
At her remark, understanding dawned upon Yumi.
She was probably one of those who once hunted me down in Loang!
Mistakenly assuming that the woman knocked Sophia out because of her, she struggled all the more wildly, just like an aggressive little beast.
âLet me tell you that Iâm the person youâre seeking! It has nothing to do with Sophia and the rest! Just take me away. Iâll go with you, but youâre not allowed to hurt them! Do you hear me?â
Zophie didnât expect a child to have such strength when she was struggling.
Yumiâs cries were too loud, so she feared they would attract attention. She hurriedly used the same wet towel to cover her nose and mouth. Similarly, Yumiâs struggles weakened in the blink of an eye. In the end, her hands went limp in Zophieâs arms.
Dipping her head, Zophie glanced at the little girl in her arms. Then, she looked over her shoulder at the little girl on the grass.
If I were to take both of them away at the same time, the difficulty would almost double compared to my initial plan. Therefore, I can only take one of them if I want to leave safely. Should I take Sophia? Or should I go with this little girl in my arms?
After mulling it over, she decided that taking the latter would be more beneficial.
With Yumi in her arms, Zophie strode out of the kindergarten.
Soon, it was the kindergartenâs breaktime.
Franklin, Xavian, and Clayton left the library and went to look for Yumi and Sophia. Alas, they found Sophia unconscious on the grass.
âSophia! Can you hear me? Wake up!â Franklin crouched and shook Sophia.
