Chapter 56: Chapter 56: Does Naughty Daddy Have Mommy in His Heart?
Hope Williams picked up her coffee, drank it calmly and elegantly, her indifferent face devoid of any superfluous expression.
“Hope Williams, one must be aware of their own worth. You should know that I don’t want to see you at all, and you should also realize that with your background, you are simply not a match for our Lewis Family.”
A trace of bitterness flickered through Hope’s beautiful eyes, but she responded with a slight smile, not angering at Alitzel Williams’s words. Instead, her expression remained indifferent, seemingly unaffected.
“Mrs. Lewis, I think there’s been a misunderstanding. I have no interest in the position of the young lady of the Lewis Family.”
Her voice was unhurried, carrying a biting sarcasm, her stoic face impeccable.
Her good upbringing still prevented Hope from uttering distasteful words to an elder.
But these days, her tolerance for Alitzel Williams had indeed reached its limit.
“Rest assured, I’ve never thought about returning to the Lewis Family.”
“Pretending what?”
“Ha.” Hope couldn’t help but let out a sarcastic laugh, “How interesting. I say I don’t want to return to the Lewis Family, and you accuse me of pretending. Since you’ve already convicted me in your heart, why bother asking me at all?”@@novelbin@@
Alitzel Williams’s face suddenly darkened.
“Hope Williams, what tricks are you trying to play now? Trying to retreat as a way to advance? Let me be clear, don’t even think about it! As long as I’m here, you will never set foot in the Lewis Family again. Forget that notion.”
“Return to the Lewis Family? Ha, as I said, five years ago I chose to leave, and now I don’t care for it.” Hope’s heart turned icy, “Don’t worry, I only wanted to save Grandpa Lewis, that’s all.”
“Ha, what makes you think you can save the old man?”
“I will achieve what I resolve to do.” Hope cast her gaze down, her voice clear, cold, and resounding, her gaze firm and confident, leaving no room for doubt.
Hope’s phone vibrated twice. She looked down to open Aria Richardson’s conversation, which startlingly showed a message from five seconds ago: Hope, Luke and Willow are missing!!
With a loud bang.
Hope’s usually composed face stiffened, and she stood up abruptly, making quite a noise.
Alitzel Williams frowned in displeasure, but Hope was already grabbing her bag to leave.
“Hope Williams.” Alitzel Williams said angrily, “I haven’t finished talking…”
All she was left with was the sight of Hope’s retreating back.
Hope immediately returned Aria’s call, “Hello, what’s going on?”
“I just went to pick up Luke and Willow from school. The teacher said they had already been picked up by someone. What do we do?” Aria’s voice was choked with emotion and near tears, “Could it be that Waylon Lewis found Luke and Willow and took them away?”
Hope took a deep breath, her mind instinctively leaping to that same guess, especially considering Liam Cloud’s reminder that the Lewis Family was searching for Luke and Willow.
A fear unlike any she had known surged in Hope’s heart.
“Hope, what do we do? Please say something, I’m panicking.”
“I’ll go look.”
Hope hung up the phone with red-rimmed eyes, her brows furrowed, her countenance growing colder by the moment.
Previously, Luke had given her a watch with a three-person GPS tracking feature. Clinging to a thread of hope, Hope activated the tracker.
Her grip on the phone suddenly tightened.
The little hope Hope had harbored shattered.
The tracker showed that Luke and Willow were right at the old Lewis estate at that moment.
Waylon Lewis! He claimed he had no intention of taking the children, so what was this?
In her mind, Hope cursed Waylon Lewis hundreds of times.
She started her car and headed straight for the Lewis residence.
Meanwhile, two small figures were silently moving through the old Lewis estate.
“Brother, it’s too dangerous. What if the bad daddy finds out and snatches us away?” Willow crouched behind Luke, worried.
Luke, holding a tiny GPS tracker, was searching for Brother Jimmy’s room, “But Willow, Brother Jimmy is supposed to be a birthday gift for Mommy. We have to get Brother Jimmy back. Don’t worry, I’ve hacked into the bad daddy’s computer before and seen his schedule. He has a meeting today and probably won’t come home until late. We’ll find it soon and then we’ll leave.”
Hearing this, Willow also mustered the courage to search with Luke.
Waylon Lewis, who they assumed would be coming home late, was now entering the old house followed by Thomas Hughes and two secretaries.
“Boss, there’s another video conference later at five o’clock.”
“I know.” Waylon’s face was stern as he unbuttoned his suit jacket and went upstairs to visit Grandpa Lewis first, inquiring about his health and instructing, “Keep a closer watch on Grandpa’s side. We can’t let what happened last time occur again. Have a doctor available at the Lewis Family home around the clock.”
“Understood, Boss. Don’t worry.”
“And another thing…”
Waylon’s voice halted, his head slightly tilting, his intelligent eyes narrowing ever so slightly. It seemed he had just seen something dash past.
“Boss, what’s wrong?” Seeing Waylon stop abruptly, Thomas Hughes asked anxiously.
“Did you see something run past just now?”
Thomas Hughes, taken aback, followed Waylon’s gaze, but all was calm; not even a mosquito in sight. “Boss, I didn’t see anything.”
Waylon withdrew his gaze, perhaps it was his mistake, his brow furrowed slightly.
“Brother, look, it’s Brother Jimmy.” Willow struggled to climb up the executive chair, excitedly took Brother Jimmy from the desk, “We found Brother Jimmy.”
“Well done, Willow.” Luke carefully protected Willow on the chair, helping her down.
Luke took Brother Jimmy, checking it briefly to ensure it just needed charging before feeling relieved.
“Brother, look, the bad daddy even hid photos of Mommy here. Mommy looks so beautiful in a white dress.” While Luke was checking Brother Jimmy, Willow held the photo frame next to her, her little hand touching the picture of Hope Williams in a beautiful wedding dress.
In the photo, Hope, clad in a pure white wedding dress, holding a bouquet, looked unimaginably beautiful. At the age of 20, her delicate features held a youthful and bashful glow during the wedding photo shoot. Her gorgeous amber eyes brimmed with smiles and boundless anticipation for the future. Her eyes held only Waylon Lewis, and none but him. She looked completely like a happy bride, affectionately linking arms with Waylon, her head slightly resting on his shoulder.
Even though Waylon’s stoic face did not show much emotion, one could discern a hint of a smile in his eyes.
Looking at the photo, Luke couldn’t help but ask, “Willow, do you think the bad daddy has Mommy in his heart?”
What do you think?
