Chapter 324 Aboveboard Kidnap
Chapter 324 Aboveboard Kidnap
Ryan shook his head and smiled gently, "I just want to find something for lunch. Sure, I'll join you guys."
Anne nodded and picked up Sally and Emily took Eddy. They walked together to a western restaurant.
Eddy and Sally ordered some children's food, and Anne ordered a few main courses for them.
Somehow, after Ryan joined them, the atmosphere within the group was somewhat weird and quiet.
Looking at Ryan, Emily frowned slightly. She wanted to break the eerie silence, but she didn't know where to start.
Finally, Ryan spoke first, "Anne, haven't you found Simon yet?"
Hearing him mention Simon's name, Anne shook her head with reddened eyes. She said, "We found Kim in H City, but I don't know why, Kim got the news ahead of time, and the whole thing was in vain."
Ryan nodded, took out a piece of tissue, and handed it to Anne. He comforted her, "Don't worry. Kim Li held Simon just for money. He won't hurt Simon because of it. On the contrary, he will take good care of him. You don't need to worry too much."
Taking a deep breath, Anne forced a smile and nodded, "You're right. As long as I wait patiently, Kim Li will definitely send Simon back."
Ryan nodded with a smile, looking at Anne with gentle stare. Anne cheered up and talked with Ryan for a while, but she fell into silence at the end.
She couldn't be more familiar with Ryan, who was sitting in front of her, but she didn't know why she always had an inexplicable sense of oppression when facing him, and didn't know how to continue the conversation with him.
It seemed that all the previous topics had changed their nature.
This was very puzzling, but it was unforgettable as well.
"Mom, I'm full." Sally put down her knife and fork and looked up at her.
Smiling and nodding, Eugene, who was next to her, said, "Mom, I'm full too!"
Hearing that, Anne couldn't help laughing. She wiped the corners of Sally's mouth with a piece of tissue and looked at Ryan helplessly. "If Sally continues to eat like this, she will definitely become a little fat girl."
Ryan reached out his hand and gently pinched Sally's little cheek. "Chubby girls are more adorable."
Anne nodded helplessly. Finishing lunch, Anne wanted to pay for the meal, but Ryan took the lead. She had no choice but to accept this favor.
Anne and Ryan walked side-by-side on the street. Ryan held Sally in his arms. Sally had become more and more outgoing since she left Kim's place. Now she was no longer afraid of a stranger.
"Uncle, you look good when you smile," pinching Ryan's face, Sally suddenly said.
Ryan froze for a second and couldn't help laughing happily. At the same time, Anne shook his head helplessly.
"I'm going to toss away the garbage," said Anne. Seeing the trash can on the roadside, she took the tissue that she had just wiped Sally's mouth and walked over.
Everyone nodded. Looking at Anne's receding back, Emily frowned slightly.
"Emily, what's wrong with you? Don't you think that we have become very strange to each other this time we meet? Like we are strangers," said Ryan, looking back at Emily.
Emily nodded her subconsciously and looked at him with hesitation. Yes, they shouldn't be so unfamiliar with each other, but for some reason, when facing Ryan, she always felt awkward.
"Ha ha..." Embarrassment appeared on Emily's face. "At that time, we thought you were dead, but you suddenly appeared again, which made me feel miraculous... Perhaps it was because of this reason that... Or maybe it's because we haven't seen each other for a long time..."
Emily tried to explain, patting her forehead helplessly. What nonsense had she said?
Ryan came back to life, which was worthy celebrating, but for some reason, she always felt that Ryan had changed somehow.
Indeed, after so many things had happened, everyone had changed.
However, many of Ryan's habits still remained, but he always gave others a sense of alienation. He was not the old himself any longer.
This was an indescribable feeling.
Looking at Emily's struggling expression, Ryan smiled, but his eyes were full of coldness.
At this moment, they suddenly heard a cry for help from Anne. "Who are you? Let me go! Let me go!"
Everyone immediately looked back and saw two men in black standing beside her, pulling her arms. Obviously, they were trying to pull her to the car behind them.
Gos!
Emily's face changed. There were so many people in public. How dare these two men in black kidnap her aboveboard!
"Emily, take care of Sally and Eddy," Ryan said urgently.
Realizing what had happened, Emily nodded repeatedly and hugged Sally and Eddy, who was about to rush over to the scene.
"Eddy, don't go there. You can't help your mother," Hannah said anxiously.
Eddy gritted his teeth and looked at the scene helplessly. He hated himself for being so short and weak.
Emily was right. He was too young to help his mother. Even if he rushed over, he couldn't help her, but instead, he might cause another trouble.
Therefore, even if he saw someone was going to kidnap his mother, he could only stand here.
Seeing that Anne was in danger, Sally couldn't help but burst into tears. With her eyes wide open, Emily stared at Ryan tightly.
Although Ryan was a man with a tall figure, the two men who were pulling Anne were strong men with muscles, full of explosive power.
Ryan was looking for death when he fought against such persons.
Sure enough, one of them imprisoned Anne, and the other kicked Ryan directly.
"Watch out!"
Looking at the dangerous scene, Anne thought of the past.
In the past, Ryan almost lost his life because of saving her, but now...
"Ryan, leave me alone. Leave me alone. I beg you. Please leave now!" It was enough that it happened once. Anyway, she couldn't let anything happen to Ryan because of her again.
"I don't need you to save me. Ryan, leave here as soon as possible. It's none of your business!" Gritting her teeth, Anne kicked the man in black hard and shouted.
The man in black frowned, took out a handkerchief, and covered it on her mouth. Anne gradually lost the ability to struggle.
On the other side, Ryan was still fighting with another man in black. The man had developed muscles and had great strength, but compared with Ryan, his movements were slow and not flexible enough.
It was already very difficult for Ryan to deal with one of them. The other man in black threw Anne aside and directly covered Ryan's mouth and nose with the same handkerchief. Ryan frowned and slowly tilted his head.
'I want to leave now, Anne, but unfortunately, I really can't. I have no choice but to take risks with you!' this was Ryan's last thought before blacking out.
He wondered maybe there would be unexpected result in this way.
Looking at the scene in front of her, Emily was startled, her face as pale as paper. She immediately picked up Sally and ran forward pulling Eddy.
Eddy gritted his teeth, but he knew that they couldn't be caught. He followed Emily and didn't dare to stop.
After running for a long time, Emily turned around and breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, those two men didn't run after them. It seemed that their goal was very clear, and that was to kidnap Anne.
Who did Anne offend? Why did this happen? Although she couldn't figure it out, Emily knew that it was not the time to think about it.
She immediately took out her phone and dialed Kevin's number.
On the other side, Kevin was dealing with documents. He answered the phone in a hurry, "Emily? What is it?"
"Kevin, Anne was taken away by two men in black!" Emily's anxious voice and Sally's crying was heard on the phone.
Kevin immediately stood up and strode forward, listening to Emily's words with a cold face.
Two men in black took Anne away. Besides, they also took away Ryan.
Ryan Xiao!
Kevin's expression changed, and all his connections quickly moved to look for Anne
He squinted his eyes and felt his mind in a mess.
Who on earth had the guts to take away Anne in broad daylight and be so arrogant?
Moreover, since they had caught Anne, why did they take Ryan Xiao away together?
Or was it all Ryan Xiao's plot?
Kevin had never trusted Ryan. As a man, he knew what Ryan was up to, and that was why he hated Ryan more.
Kevin took out a cigarette, lit it and took a deep drag. However, the smell of the cigarette did not calm him down, but made him more anxious. He immediately put the cigarette aside, turned around and walked out of the company.
Now, Sally was still crying aloud. Eddy sat beside her with a serious look on his face.
When Kevin arrived, Sally pounced on him. Kevin held her in his arms and patted on Eddy's shoulder. Eddy's eyes turned red, but he held back the tears.
"Dad, I'm sorry. I didn't protect Mom well." Eddy's voice was childish but full of guilt. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Kevin frowned and said, "Nah, Eddy. You have done a good job. I'm proud of you. Don't worry. I will find your mother and let those people pay the price,"
Kevin said in a cold tone.
Eddy nodded and looked at Kevin with trust. He believed that his father was capable of doing that and his mother would definitely come back to him.
Kevin put down Sally and handed her over to Emily. Then he went upstairs and made a call.
"Hello, Mom..." Kevin said in a low voice.
On the other end of the line, Selma sarcasm voice was heard. "It's so rare that Mr. Kevin still remembers me as his mother. If you don't call me, I would think that you've forgotten it because of that woman."
"Did you take Anne away?" Kevin asked straightforwardly.
On the other end of the line, Selma's voice volume suddenly increased, "What do you mean? What's wrong with that woman again? What tricks are is she playing now? Kevin Fu, you have always been smart. How could you become so stupid now?"
"Clap!" On the other end of the line, Kevin hung up the phone before Selma could finish her words.
Frowning, Kevin stared at his phone and took a deep breath to suppress the coldness in his heart.
"Dad, did Grandma take Mom away?" Eddy asked slowly, looking at his father's cold face. He walked in and stood behind Kevin without being noticed.
Kevin frowned, looked into Eddy's eyes, shook his head, and said, "I don't know."
He was telling the truth. He had requested to see the surveillance video of that street and was looking for the two men in black in every possible way, but so far, there was no news.
Besides, the car didn't leave A City. Maybe they were hiding in A City now, but he didn't know where they were hiding.
Moreover, since they had tried their best to kidnap Anne, how could they let him find her so soon?
