Unsurprisingly, Emily should indeed be back.
But then, the accident happened.
When Yuna downstairs, Rowdy was storming out of the living room, yelling at the person on the other end of the phone, "If you can't find Emily, you'd better never appear in front of me! Otherwise, you will be a thousand times more upset than Emily!"
What do you mean, "If you can't find Emily"?
Mu is missing?
Yuna's heart panicked, she couldn't care about anything else and hurriedly walked to Rowdy's side,"What's wrong with Emily?"
Rowdy hung up the phone, looked at Yuna, and said only after a long time, "Emily has disappeared."
"... What?" Yuna almost couldn't believe what she heard, rushing to Rowdy in front of her in a flash, the panic in her voice storming | revealing nothing, "How could Emily be missing?"
"He was still in the classroom during class, Milo didn't receive him after school, and the kindergarten teacher didn't find him either." Rowdy glanced at Yuna and said faintly, "Calm down, I've already sent people to look for him."
"What about the surveillance?" Yuna was at a loss for words, thinking of any method to immediately bring it up, "Did you ask someone to line up the surveillance video?"
Rowdy's voice remained muted, "Checking."
It didn't sound like he was too attached to Emily's disappearance.
Yuna's attention just shifted to Rowdy, looking at him incredulously, "Emily has already disappeared, why are you still here? Why don't you go look for Emily?"
"... "Rowdy didn't say anything, his gaze looking deeply at Yuna.
Yuna nodded, having lost all patience, and said word for word, "If you don't go, I'll go!"
Mu was nowhere to be found, and no one knew what kind of disaster would happen to him.
She definitely couldn't wait around for news.
Yuna was serious, and as soon as the tail end of his voice fell, he turned around and was about to go out the door.
Rowdy reacted quickly as well, pulling Yuna down with a low growl, "Where are you going to find Emily?"
"I have my own methods, I don't want to stay here like you and wait for news." Yuna was genuinely anxious, his emotions were a bit out of control, and his voice couldn't help but pull up quite a bit.
Rowdy clutched Yuna's hand tighter and snorted coldly.
Yuna really couldn't understand this smile of Rowdy, and took out the last of her patience to ask, "What are you smiling about?"
Rowdy smiled even more kindly and asked instead of answering, "Do you know who the most likely person to take Emily is?"
There was a clear implication in his tone.
Yuna quickly reacted and looked at Rowdy incredulously, "You're suspecting Wesley?"
"Other than him, who else has a reason to take Emily?" Rowdy said, and the smile at the corner of his lips grew colder and colder, "Yuna, today, there's no way I'm going to let you leave here!"
Yuna's focus was all on the first half of Rowdy's sentence, after all, at this time, the most important thing was Emily's safety, not Wesley's person.
She looked at Rowdy and shook her head with certainty,"It won't be Wesley, you should investigate in other directions. It's a complete waste of time for you to investigate Wesley at this time."
"Are you so sure that it's not Wesley?" Rowdy let out a kind smile and asked back in a harsh tone, "On what basis are you sure?"
Yuna couldn't care less anymore and said directly, "Just by virtue of the fact that I know Wesley, Wesley wouldn't hurt a five year old child! For you to bite the bullet and say that it was Wesley who took Emily, I think it's a stupid prejudice, your prejudice will harm Emily!"
"Is that so?" Rowdy's kind smile had an extra touch of danger in it, "Yuna, are you defending Mu Shijiu?"
"That's not the point!" Yuna was undaunted, staring angrily at Rowdy, a hint of desperation in her voice, "You can not believe in Wesley, but why don't you believe that I am doing this for the sake of Emily's safety?"
"..."
Rowdy furrowed his brows for a moment, as if waking up from a dream.
Yuna's return to him might indeed have an ulterior motive, but her love for Emily was true.
She shouldn't not care when Mu is in danger.
Perhaps, at times like this, he should trust Yuna.
Conrad City faltered and asked, "Are you sure?"
Yuna closed his eyes and said word for word, "I guarantee it with my life!"
Rowdy dialed Milo's phone and instructed, "Don't check on Mu Shijiu anymore, Emily might have been taken by someone else."
"... "Milo was silent for two seconds and said with some heaviness, "Brother Rowdy, we've just found out."
Rowdy's hand clutching the cell phone tightened suddenly, his voice strained like a drawn bow, "Who is it?"
Milo had yet to name the murderer, but Rowdy had already handily killed that person countless times in his mind.
"It's someone from the Bennett Family in C city, Chen Dong, do you still remember? We just ... stole a business from him a few days ago." The more Milo said, the more grave his tone became, "I saw from the video that Chen Dong sneaked into the kindergarten and personally carried away Emily."
Turns out, it really wasn't Wesley.
Although Wesley cold-blooded, but deep in his bones, but also hides a few points of the so-called "gentleman style".
Chen Dong is completely different.
In order to achieve his goal, Chen Dong could do anything.
When taking revenge on someone, Chen Dong can even kill without even blinking, he will not even take into account that Emily is only a five year old child.
The veins on Rowdy's forehead popped up, and a thick murderous aura permeated his tone, ''Contact Chen Dong and ask him what conditions he has. As long as he releases Emily, I can promise him anything. But remember, do not reveal our bottom line to Chen Dong too early."
"Brother Rowdy, I have just contacted Dong Chen," Milo said somewhat feebly, "Dong Chen's phone is unanswered, I guess he did it on purpose."
Rowdy had snatched a great deal of business from Chen Dong's hands, and now that the matter was irreparable, Chen Dong was harboring a grudge and kidnapped Emily to take revenge on Rowdy, so how could he possibly let Rowdy get in touch with him so quickly?
He didn't want to get anything from Rowdy, he just wanted Rowdy to experience that kind of burning and torture.
Rowdy hung up the phone and then smashed the tea set on the table.
Yuna had already guessed what was going on and asked directly, "Who took Emily?"
Rowdy squeezed two words out of his teeth in a murderous manner, "Chen, Dong."
Chen Dong had better make sure that nothing would happen to Emily, otherwise, he would definitely make Chen Dong pay a thousand times the price!
Yuna wrinkled her eyebrows, "That Chen Dong from the Bennett Family in C City?"
Rowdy looked at Yuna with some surprise,"You know Chen Dong? I don't remember mentioning him to you."
Yuna avoided Rowdy's gaze and said, "When I was undercover beside Wesley, I met Chen Dong a few times."
"..."
Rowdy didn't say anything else.
Even so, sending Yuna to Wesley's side was still the most regrettable decision he had ever made in his life.
Yuna then asked, "What are Dong Chen's conditions?"
"..."
This time, Conrad City's silence was even more complete.
The doubt in Yuna's heart deepened, and she pursued, "It's impossible for Chen Dong to have no purpose in taking the trouble to kidnap Emily, right?"
"He doesn't answer our calls and doesn't even negotiate with us." Rowdy paused for a moment before saying, "He's just trying to get back at me."
When kidnapping occurs, the greatest fear is that the other party does not have any demands in terms of benefits, but just for the sake of pure revenge.
Hostages are often greatly harmed in such situations.
Yuna wrinkled her eyebrows and looked anxiously at Rowdy, "Aren't you going to think of a way?"
Rowdy rubbed his temples vigorously, "I'm thinking."
However, the biggest problem at the moment is that they don't have a very good solution.
If Chen Dong had any conditions, he could just raise them and Rowdy could immediately agree to him and then go and fetch Emily back.
However, Chen Dong just wanted to get back at him.
Chen Dong kidnapped Emily in order to utilize Emily's value, and they simply did not have anything of equal value to Emily to exchange with Chen Dong.
Yuna's heart was burning like fire, in the midst of all the fire, she suddenly remembered something and snatched Rowdy's cell phone, "You don't have to think, I have a way."
By the time the tail end of her voice fell, she had sharply lost a string of digits in the dialing screen.
Rowdy vaguely remembered that it was someone's phone number.
In an instant, Rowdy's anger attacked his heart, he snatched back the cell phone and stared viciously at Yuna, "Who are you calling?!"
"Wesley!" Yuna didn't hide it anymore, and said unapologetically, "Wesley and Chen Dong are friends, and most importantly, Chen Dong listens to Wesley's words. If Sir Mu told Chen Dong to release Emily, Chen Dong will definitely comply and Emily can come back."
"Yuna, are you crazy?!" Rowdy "snapped", ruthlessly slammed his cell phone, coldly looked at Yuna, "You mean, I have to ask for help from Mu Shijiu?"
"It's not you." Yuna emphasized word for word, "It's me who's going to ask for help from Wesley."
"Even more so if it's you!" Rowdy's eyes were red with rage as he yelled lowly, "Yuna, you know full well that I don't share the same fate as Brian and those people, and for you to ask for help from them at this time isn't it tantamount to telling them that I can't even take care of my own son? What are you doing?"
"I want to save Emily, I couldn't care less!" Yuna looked at Rowdy, her eyes had started to redden, "I only know that Emily is in the hands of your enemies, and you can't do anything about your enemies right now, but Wesley can, and Chen Dong almost completely listens to Wesley!"
"... "Rowdy suddenly calmed down and gave a cold laugh, "What makes you think that Wesley will definitely help you? Or maybe, this kidnapping, is simply a conspiracy between Chen Dong and Wesley?"
"I said that Wesley wouldn't lay his hands on a child, I've been by his side for a year, I know him!" Yuna looked at Rowdy almost pleadingly, but her tone was extraordinarily strong, "My decision now concerns Emily's life, whether you agree or not, I will make this call!"
