Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 348

Anthony was on Stanley's side, so he naturally ignored Isai's warning and took the two children out, walking as fast as he could. Seeing that, Isai's bodyguards went forward to stop them.

Stanley sneered and kicked the bodyguard, who was going to pull Seamus's arm.

Uncontrollably, the bodyguard fell backward to the ground in pain.

Anthony sped up and took the two children out, got in the car, and left.

Making sure that the car had left, Stanley had no more scruples. He glared at Isai and asked, "Where's she?"

Isai walked straight to him from the stairs. "What are you going to do?"

"Where's Sharon?" Stanley asked one last time.

Isai slowly narrowed his eyes and masked his sharp look. "I only took the children here. What's her missing has anything to do with me?"

Without asking any further, Stanley pushed Isai away and went up the stairs.

"Stop right there!"

Isai warned loudly.

But Stanley ignored him.

Isai was about to pull out his gun, but Jimmy, who had been standing by the side silently, suddenly warned, "Isai, don't try to break the law. Besides, I'm still standing here. Don't forget that I'm a cop."

Although he said that with a smile, there was a hint of warning to his tone.

Isai glanced at Jimmy for a while, then gave Oscar a look, who then led Stanley upstairs. Meanwhile, he said to Jimmy smilingly, "Jimmy, you have grown up. Now you even dare to threaten me." Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Jimmy replied, "Nah, how can I threaten you? Even my chief has to listen to you."

"Then take your people out of here."

Jimmy's expression slowly grew solemn. "What if I don't want to?"

"Well, two days ago, I just had dinner with your chief. He mentioned that you're now the most promising candidate for the next promotion, provided you have no violation of discipline in the next few years. Don't you want this opportunity?"

Jimmy was young and had been promoted several times in a row, as he had solved countless cases. It had long been decided that he would be promoted as the deputy chief when the time came. But now, obviously, Isai was using this to threaten him.

Generally, at Jimmy's age, his peers wouldn't have his luck to get to this position so smoothly. If he continued to get promoted, he could achieve the top in a few years and became quite powerful.

All the hopes of the Hudson Family were now placed on him.

And Isai knew that, which was why he used this to threaten Jimmy. He then stared at Jimmy with a sharp look and continued, "I heard that you've kept a lover outside secretly. Although she hasn't been exposed yet, do you think that after today, you can still keep her hidden and get promoted?"

Immediately, Jimmy's expression changed, and he pressed his lips tightly together. Not many people knew about his relationship with Anna. It seemed that Isai had schemed everything.

Seeing that his expression had changed, Isai felt quite smug. "However, since our families are quite familiar with each other, I won't expose you if you take your people and leave now."

Jimmy was silent for a while, and suddenly he chuckled. "You've always been astute. Sure enough, you've got my weakness, but... do you think that I really care about the promotion?"

The smile on Isai's face faded away. "You don't want to keep your job anymore?"

"Well, I've had enough of this job a long time ago. This job has no fun at all, so go ahead and ask the chief to fire me asap. Then, I can take my wife to travel around the world."

When his colleague heard that, he couldn't help laughing, to which Jimmy shot him a glance and warned, "What are you laughing at? Watch out, we're still at work!"

"Yes, sir!"

"Keep a close eye on these people. Cole, go up and disarm their weapons. If they refuse, handcuff them then! It's illegal for civilians to carry guns."

"Yes, sir!"

Isai looked displeasing like never before.

Upstairs-

After checking all the rooms, Stanley finally came to the last closed door and he kicked it open. Seeing the messy floor, he immediately tensed, and then he became stunned.

Standing behind him, Oscar knew that Sharon had already been transferred away, so he didn't stop Stanley from searching the rooms. However, after Stanley kicked open the last door, Oscar noticed that there was something wrong with Stanley's expression.

Immediately, he went forward to have a look and was also stunned.

The glass in the room was broken into pieces. The two bodyguards were lying on the ground unconscious, whereas Sharon was nowhere to be seen.

Oscar was shocked. Where was she? Did she run out from the window?

Meanwhile, Stanley strode in and checked the room, then poked his head out of the window. This was the first floor, a little high from the ground, and there was no resting point outside, so it wasn't quite possible for Sharon to escape from here.

He turned around and cast a cold gaze on Oscar. "Where's she?"

Still in shock, Oscar blurted out, "I don't know where she is either..."

Before he could finish, he quickly realized that he was admitting that they had kidnapped Sharon, so he instantly shut up.

Stanley stared at Oscar for a while, then turned around and went out. When he was about to go downstairs, a notification came to his phone and he took it out to have a look. After that, he went downstairs steadily.

Downstairs, Jimmy was reprimanding a few bodyguards who refused to cooperate. When he saw Stanley came down, he looked over and asked if he had found Sharon, but Stanley just walked straight to Isai.

Oscar, who had also followed him down, stopped him.

Stanley's expression was too sinister. Oscar was worried that he would attack Isai in front of so many people.

Nevertheless, Stanley gazed at Isai with a sharp look and asked slowly, "You know that I've gained my memory?"
