Boyce didn’t know what happened either. He rushed over to tell Matthew after getting a call from Jasmine. He was quite anxious right now.”We cannot waste any time, let’s go back right now,” said Boyce.”What happened?” Dolores only knew that something was going on, she didn’t hear what Boyce whispered to Matthew.”We’ll head back first,” said Matthew. Dolores nodded. Her face was pale and she looked tired. In the last few days after Jayden passed ??w.?(o)?(e)??????.(c)??away, she didn’t eat well nor rest well. She looked awful. It was raining and the floor was slippery. As she was going down the stairs, she missed her step and was about to fall. Luckily, Matthew noticed and quickly grabbed her. He managed to save her from falling. Dolores frightened herself. She was blacking out, “I’m okay.”She said as she rubbed her temple.??(w).(n)ov??(h)???.c??Matthew held her by the waist. They walked out of the cemetery. He opened the car door and helped her to get into the car; he put the children into the car as well.”Armand, Theresa.”Matthew looked at them and said, “Can you bring them back to the mansion?””Where are you going?” asked Dolores as she rolled down the window.”I have something to do with Boyce,” said Matthew calmly, “I’m worried that memories will resurface if you guys head home right now. Let’s stay at the mansion for at least two days for now.”Dolores said, “But Joshua is still at home. I’m worried.”She wanted to go back. Matthew clenched his fist and his emotions were running wild. Though, it wasn’t showing on his face at all, “Let’s stay at the mansion today.”Dolores didn’t have the chance to say no as Matthew quickly continued saying, “Bring the children home and rest well. Theresa, please take care of them.””Don’t worry,” said Theresa as she was getting into the car. Armand said, “What do you guys need to do? I can come with you…””You should head to the mansion as well.” Matthew was worried to leave the women and children alone at the mansion. Hence, he made Armand go with them. Armand said, “Okay then.”After they left, Matthew and Boyce quickly rushed home. Jasmine was so worried she was crying. She was prancing back and forth in the living room. She quickly rushed to them when she saw them. She kept on apologizing, “I’m sorry, I’m so sorry…””Stop with the apology for now. Tell us, how did Joshua go missing?” Boyce reached out his hand and dried the tears on her face.”I was watching Joshua upstairs the whole time, I was the only one there. About an hour ago, I went down to get a glass of water. When I got back to the room, Joshua was gone,” said Jasmine worriedly.”Think about it carefully, are you sure that nobody came in during that time?” asked Boyce. He thought that Jasmine might be too anxious and forgot about any suspicious person that she sighted. Jasmine was extremely distressed. She was told to take care of Joshua, and now Joshua was gone. It was her responsibility to take care of the baby. What if they couldn’t find the baby? How could she face Matthew and Dolores?”No, no…” Jasmine confirmed that she didn’t see anyone suspicious. Matthew looked at Jasmine and knew that her head was probably a mess right now. He knew that he couldn’t get any answers from her right now and hence he headed to the study room. There was a surveillance camera at the entrance of the house, he should be able to see if someone entered. He turned on the computer and the display was all black. The surveillance camera was destroyed. Boyce was standing next to him, he noticed something immediately, “It’s probably someone we know.” ???.?(o)?e??????.?o?There was only one camera but it was in a rather hidden spot. One shouldn’t be able to notice it unless they went in and out the house very often, “Matthew, I’m sorry.”Jasmine was his wife. The baby was gone and it was their responsibility. Matthew narrowed his eyes and stared at the black display. He ignored Boyce and was trying to think.

Benjamin was at the funeral today. Because of the funeral, Matthew wasn’t home. And now, the baby was gone. He suspected that Benjamin had something to do with this. He took out his phone and was about to call someone. Then, Jasmine suddenly entered the room.”Around the afternoon, the driver came over and he took a look at Joshua.” Before this, she didn’t think too much about the driver as he worked for Matthew for a long time now. She thought that he would be trustworthy if Matthew trusted him. But she thought about it and realized that it was odd that he went upstairs. Matthew was holding his phone, his hand trembled. He asked, “When?””Today,” Jasmine tried to recall, “About 2 pm. He said that you were the one who asked him to come to take a look.”Matthew didn’t order anyone to come to take a look at Joshua.”I’ll go search for him.” The driver was always by Matthew side, he was Matthew’s driver and bodyguard. He was extremely suspicious right now. Boyce’s face turned stern, “I’ll kill him if it is really him!”It was Jasmine’s first time seeing Boyce enraged. She gulped in fear. Matthew didn’t stop him. They indeed had to find this person, to have more clues on this matter. Boyce walked towards the door and suddenly, he saw the driver walking towards him. Boyce was surprised, if it was really him, how could he still have the guts to come here?”I want to meet Mr. Nelson,” said the driver as he stood in front of Boyce. Boyce didn’t answer, he brought the driver to the study room. The study room’s door wasn’t fully closed, it was slightly opened. Boyce opened the door without knocking. Matthew was on the phone, he looked up as he heard noises. He looked ferocious when he saw the driver.”We are both from the Nelson family. My grandfather and your grandfather shared the same mother. Why should you guys hold 80% of WY Group’s share and I only hold 20%? If you want your son, it’s easy. Just give me your shares and I’ll return your son to you.”Benjamin never dared to pull any tricks back then because he was afraid of Jayden. People tried to make him but he never even dared to imagine. But now, things had changed. Jayden had died!”I’ll give it to you,” Matthew didn’t even hesitate. To him, his child was more important than anything.”Okay, I’ll give you one day to prepare. I’ll see you tomorrow night.”Matthew put down the phone. When Boyce went out, his phone rang. It was exactly like what Matthew suspected. It was benjamin.”Mr. Nelson.” The driver knelt in front of the table. He was crying uncontrollably, “I had no choice, they kidnapped my wife and threatened me. If I don’t do, as they say, I will lose my wife and my child.”He thought he could use the baby to exchange for his wife’s and child’s life. He decided to run away, hide, or go as far away as he could after that. But he didn’t. He came back to confess to Matthew. Matthew was the one who gave him a chance when he was in abjection. Because of Matthew, he didn’t have to worry about a roof above his head or his next meal. Because of Matthew, he and his wife could make a family in this big city. He was grateful, but he had no choice because they threatened him with his family’s life. Matthew would only place people he trusted to work for him at home. He never treated him badly, and always gave him a lot of work benefits.w??.???e????m?.co?Now that he betrayed Matthew, he expected nothing but fury and resentment from Matthew.”Why didn’t you tell me that they threatened you?” Matthew said sternly, “Do you think that I will let it be?””I… didn’t dare to say it. If I tell you about it, they will kill my wife and my child.” The driver kowtowed to Matthew. Matthew asked in a low voice, “Did you call them on the day that my father died?””Yes.” The driver didn’t even dare to lift his head. “He told me to watch over you guys and tell him immediately if something happens.”
