On seeing her condition, Benjamin said, “Okay, but we must be cautious just in case Matthew finds Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
out…”
“He won’t, we’ll be extra careful.” The woman simply wanted to vent her anger at this point.
“Okay, let’s go.” Benjamin knew that she was fuming now and just wanted an outlet for the ordeal that
she had gone through today. They just had to be careful.
They left from the back door and checked the surroundings before getting into the car. Abbott’s men
were observing from behind some trees.
Benjamin and the woman thought that they had been very careful to prevent being discovered. Little
did they realize that they had been shadowed since they left that place.
They followed Benjamin’s car and drove to an increasingly remote area. They finally stopped outside
an old age hospice.
Benjamin exited the car and the woman followed suit. She seemed eager and joyful when she said,
“They would never figure out that we are hiding the baby at a hospice.”
Benjamin looked around and then said cautiously, “We’d better be more careful. Let’s go.”
The woman nodded and entered the hospice from the back door. The men which came with them
followed them into the hospice but the woman instructed them to secure the entrance while she and
Benjamin entered the room.
It was a square room with a bed to the side. A middle-aged woman sat by the bed carrying the baby.
“Put down the child and leave.” Benjamin said.
The middle-aged woman gently placed the baby down and said, “The baby was crying the entire night
and just fell asleep.”
The woman was frustrated and said, “Just put the baby down and leave!”
The baby was very cute and the middle-aged woman started to become attached to it. Although she
had been paid to do this, she was curious as to why they kept the baby here.
However, she dared not ask and placed a blanket over Joshua before leaving.
The woman walked towards the bed and noticed that Joshua very much resembled Dolores. She
began to rage within her. She was a woman just like Dolores. Why did she have to serve this old man
while Dolores could marry such a good man and give birth to this adorable baby? She began to
become overwhelmed in hate.
She yanked off the blanket covering Joshua which startled him and started to cry.
“Go ahead and cry until your parents hear you. I’m sure they’ll be heartbroken when they hear your
cries.” The woman took out her cellphone and recorded a video of Joshua crying. She would show it to
Matthew at the appropriate time. She wanted Matthew to know that the baby suffered because he
tortured her.
She kept the phone and stoked Joshua’s face as she said, “How fortunate are you to be born into a
wealthy family?”
She scoffed while her eyes betrayed her vileness, “What a pity to end up in my hands.”
Then, she pinched Joshua’s nose and yelled, “Don’t cry!”
Joshua’s face began to turn red from the lack of air.
“Haha ha…” The woman shrieked, “You will pay for all that I had suffered today. You can hate your
parents for that!”
Bang! The door was kicked in!
The men that Benjamin left to guard the door were all on the ground and a team of men rushed into the
room.
“You…” Benjamin demanded but then realized immediately who came in and turned pale.
Before the woman could react, she simply heard a ‘how dare you’ and felt her entire body being tossed
and pushed down onto the ground. She winced in pain, started to see a tall figure walk over, and
started to realize what had happened while her heart began to sink into the abyss.
After his nose was released, Joshua wailed loudly, “Waah…”
Matthew quickly picked Joshua into his arms. Joshua still wailed uncontrollably and his eyes were
slightly swollen perhaps due to the cries. His tiny body started to shudder along with the cries.
“Is Joshua alright?” Boyce asked as he walked over.
Matthew pursed his lips tightly and one could see from his eyes that he was heartbroken. He gently
wiped away the tears from the baby’s face and said softly, “You know what to do.”
Boyce replied, “Leave it to me, I’ll settle this.”
Matthew carried Joshua and left. He turned around to look at Benjamin before stepping outside.
“What do you intend to do?” Benjamin pretended to be composed.
“You were the one who kidnapped and extorted. Now you’re asking me what I intend to do? Shouldn’t I
be asking you that?” Matthew said coldly.
“We share the same bloodline,” Benjamin yelled, trying to sound brave but he knew that he was in a lot
of trouble.
Matthew scoffed, “Did you remember this when you kidnapped my child?”
Benjamin clenched his fists but frowned deeply and remained still.
“How did this happen?” The woman was puzzled. She could not figure how Matthew found their
location.
Abbott went over to her and patted her bandaged face. The woman winced in pain.
“What a fool. Since we had caught you, do you think that we would let you go so easily? Aren’t you
curious how was it that you were so easily rescued?”
The woman glared and yelled, “You tricked me? You intentionally let me be rescued?”
Abbott scoffed and did not bother to reply. Of course, that was what they did. He did not harm her too
badly so that she could still move about. He did all these to rile up her hatred so that she would act
hastily. When she acted in haste, she would let her guard down and become careless.
They capitalized on this.
Matthew had planned this the moment he left the top floor. He first sent the message to Abbott to let
him torture that woman. However, he must not go overboard and must keep her alive.
Then, he intentionally leaked out the whereabouts of the woman so that Benjamin would find out and
he would come to rescue her. Finally, Boyce was instructed to get Abbott away, and thereafter Boyce
was told of the plan.
When Boyce went to drag Abbott away, he also said that he was worried about being implicated so that
the woman would hear it which made the situation more convincing.
All these were done to stir up her desire for revenge. Once she sought revenge, she would naturally
want to vent it onto Joshua. Then, as long as they followed the woman, they would find Joshua.
At this moment, Benjamin came to his senses and seemed to realize what had just happened. He
glared at the woman.
