Harley Cook was a little hesitant, but the sound of the baby crying in her arms interrupted her
suspicions, "Hurry up then.We were in such a hurry to get downstairs that we didn't bring any bottles or
diapers, and he's probably hungry now."
Jayden Bower smiled, "Okay."
After half an hour, the black car slowly drove into the two carved doors.
Harley Cook looked at the unfamiliar place and couldn't help but grab Jayden Bower's sleeve, "Is
Ms.Allyson really waiting for us here? Why do I feel like this place doesn't look like..."
"Don't worry.We'll be there soon."
Soon, the car passed the large garden and stopped at the side house.
Harley Cook looked out through the window, and when she saw the unfamiliar and cold faces, the
uneasiness in her heart began to expand strongly.
But before she could ask any more questions, the car door opened from outside.
A man stepped forward and tried to take the child from Harley Cook's arms.
She wouldn't let go, "Who are you people? What the hell do you want?"
Jayden Bower's voice came from beside her, but it was not as gentle as usual and had a strange
coldness to it, "Harley, you'd better give them the baby, or you'll be the one who gets hurt."
Harley Cook looked at him, shocked and angry, "It's you, you colluded with them.You..."
Harley Cook knew it was futile to talk about it now and turned to the man who had come to take the
child, "Do you know whose child this is? If he knows what you have done, he will not spare you! If you
want money, I can contact him.He will certainly agree to your conditions.Do not hurt the child!"
At that moment, in the silence of the night, there was the sound of a cane hitting the ground.
Before Harley Cook could react, the figure of Master Proctor appeared in her line of sight, snorting
coldly, "Can Jameson Proctor still turn the tide now?"
Harley Cook saw him, and her whole body froze, "Master Proctor?"
"It's good that you know who I am.Save me from wasting time with you here."
Master Proctor looked at his men.
The latter took advantage of Harley Cook's unpreparedness to hastily carry the child over.
Seeing this, Harley Cook looked back and tried to grab the child, but someone immediately took control
of her.
Master Proctor looked at the child and said without looking back, "Put them both in together."
His men nodded, knocked Harley Cook unconscious, and carried her into the house, while another
opened the back seat of the car and took the unconscious Charlotte Clarke inside as well.
Master Proctor saw that the child kept crying and beckoned to the two nannies waiting nearby, "Take
him inside first and see what's going on.It's the middle of the night, don't let him keep crying.I don't
want him to be found"
Both of them answered at the same time, "Yes."
A nanny took the child from the men and walked around the side room where Harley Cook and
Charlotte Clarke were kept and headed deeper.
Master Proctor pinned his cane and withdrew his eyes to Jayden Bower, who had already gotten out of
the car, "All right, go back.Don't let Jameson Proctor find out.I won't give you any less than you
deserve"
Jayden Bower smiled faintly, "Well, thank you, Master Proctor."
Master Proctor did not seem to want to talk more with him.
He waved his hand, indicating him to leave.
Jayden Bower looked in the direction the nanny left with the child in her arms, narrowed his eyes, and
turned to leave.
After he left, a henchman stepped forward and asked, "Master, if we leave them here, they will be
easily discovered by the young master.Should we change the place?"
Master Proctor said in a deep voice, "Jeffery hasn't been here for many years.The range of his
activities is at most the garden.No need to worry about that.What I'm worried about now is Evie."
"Madam, she..."
"She has been looking for Charlotte Clarke and is not quite in her right mind.
If she knows that Charlotte Clarke is here, there is no guarantee that she will not do something reckless
that will only disrupt my plans."
After a pause, Master Proctor added, "You guys stay here for a few days.No one can go in without my
permission."
"Yes."
After Master Proctor's words, he pinned his cane and walked in the direction of the main house.
With such a large place, hiding a few people was easy for him.
Inside the house, Harley Cook and Charlotte Clarke were locked up together.
Harley Cook woke up and felt a soreness in her neck.
She saw Charlotte Clarke lying on the bed and rushed to push her, "Charlotte, Charlotte, wake up!"
Charlotte Clarke was unconscious because she had been drugged by Jayden Bower.
At the sound of Harley Cook's call, she slowly opened her eyes and asked with a headache, "Where is
this?"
"This is...this is…” Harley Cook choked, unable to say a complete sentence.
Charlotte Clarke looked around and jerked awake, "Where's the baby?"
Harley Cook fell to the floor, sobbing uncontrollably, "They took the baby away.Charlotte, I'm sorry.It's
all my fault."
Charlotte Clarke frowned, "What's going on? Tell me clearly."
Harley Cook told the whole story and then choked up, "It's my fault.I shouldn't have trusted him.If I
hadn't gone with him, we wouldn't have..."
Charlotte Clarke closed her eyes, "Well, what's the use of crying now? What's more, according to you,
whether it's that boyfriend of yours or the Proctor family, it was premeditated, and you were used."
"I..I...what about the baby, Charlotte? Are they going to hurt him?"
Charlotte Clarke's expression gradually turned solemn, "If the Proctor family did this, I know what they
are up to.The child will not be in danger for the time being."
Harley Cook wiped her tears, "Charlotte, don't worry.I'll find a way to get out of here and let Mr.Proctor
come to your rescue!"
Charlotte Clarke let out a silent sigh and didn't say anything.Sharon Allyson woke up with a start.It was
already three in the morning.She sat up, feeling her back sweaty and her mouth dry.
Just now, vaguely, she had a nightmare.
The fire twenty years ago and today's apartment fire inexplicably tied together, and the burning covered
the sky.
And there seemed to be the faint sound of a baby crying in the fire.
Sharon Allyson lifted the covers and went downstairs to pour a glass of water to drink.She went back
again and laid down in the bed, but she couldn't seem to sleep.
Perhaps it was because of the nightmare.She felt empty and unsettled in her heart.She picked up her
phone, wanting to send a message to Jameson Proctor to ask him how he was doing there, but when
the message was half typed, she deleted it.
She didn't want to cause him more trouble.
Sharon Allyson put her phone down and closed her eyes to force herself to sleep.
She had been at the hospital for the past few days, and although Dean Wilson was helping to keep an
eye on the Beale Group, there was still a lot she needed to do.
Not to mention, the Kale Bee mess was still piling up there.It had to be dealt with as soon as possible.
