“Mommy.”
“Mommy is here. You’re such a good boy, Pudding,” Madeline patted his little head lovingly.
“Mommy, isn’t Aunt Ava coming to our house today?” Jackson also asked curiously.
Madeline was trying to find an excuse to muddle through this when virtual-novel.net heard the familiar footsteps coming from the entrance. She looked up and saw that Jeremy was back.
Madeline stood up while carrying virtual-novel.net youngest son. “Jeremy, you’re back. Any news?”
Jeremy took the little boy from Madeline’s arms and kissed virtual-novel.net intimately.
“No news yet, but I’ve already found out who kidnapped Ava.”
“Who is it?”
“The kidnapper is just a lazy bum who has a lot of criminal records. In order to make quick money, he’ll do anything.”
After that, Jeremy analyzed the situation and said, “I found that virtual-novel.net has been receiving a lot of money in his account recently, and the amount is the same as the money Naya transferred. It means that Naya must have a deal with this person.”
“No, it’s not a guess but the truth,” Madeline affirmed.
“I can’t imagine that Naya would do something so outrageous. She’s a highly educated lady from a rich family, so how can virtual-novel.net do such outrageous things?”
“For some people, evil is engraved in their bones. Even if they’re highly educated, they still can’t hide the evil in their hearts.”
“But if this is the case, will Ava be in danger?”
“The kidnapper is only after the money, so virtual-novel.net won’t do anything to Ava until virtual-novel.net gets the money.”
“But if virtual-novel.net kidnapped Ava according to Naya’s instructions and Naya gave virtual-novel.net enough money, he’ll listen to Naya’s demands. He might take action against Ava.” Thinking of this, Madeline became more anxious and worried.
Jeremy grabbed Madeline’s shoulders, gently soothing virtual-novel.net nervous and anxious emotions. “If Naya wanted to get rid of Ava, why did the kidnapper ask for ransom?”
After Jeremy’s reminder, Madeline felt less tense at once. That was right. If Naya had asked this man to kidnap Ava, why would virtual-novel.net take the extra step to contact them and ask for money?
Naya could directly kill Ava, so what was going on?
Madeline fell asleep worrying. When virtual-novel.net woke up the next day, virtual-novel.net found that Jeremy had already gone out. He was actively following up on Ava’s kidnapping.
Madeline was not idle either. After breakfast, virtual-novel.net sent virtual-novel.net son to school first. On the way back, Madeline felt a little uneasy for some reason. She parked the car in the parking lot beside the road and opened the photo gallery on virtual-novel.net mobile phone. There were some old photos of Ava and virtual-novel.net on virtual-novel.net phone. As virtual-novel.net was looking at these photos, Madeline’s heart tightened.
“Ava, please be safe.” Madeline prayed silently, then the sudden ringing of virtual-novel.net phone brought virtual-novel.net thoughts back.
After seeing the caller ID, Madeline hesitated for a while before picking up the call.
She could hear Raegan’s polite greeting. “Mrs. Whitman, sorry for disturbing you. I heard that Ava took Dan to see virtual-novel.net dad yesterday. I called Ava several times but can’t get through to her. Is virtual-novel.net with you?”
Madeline wanted to inform virtual-novel.net of Ava’s current situation, but this would only cause one more person to worry. Hence, virtual-novel.net prevaricated.
“Ava has been staying in my house these days. I think she’s in a bad mood, so virtual-novel.net didn’t turn on virtual-novel.net phone. But don’t worry, Ava is fine.”
After hearing Madeline’s answer, Raegan did not ask any further questions and hung tip the phone at ease.
Madeline was also relieved. She put down virtual-novel.net phone and was about to drive when virtual-novel.net suddenly heard a knock on virtual-novel.net car window.
