Um…
Evan lifted his eyes and looked at Nicole in shock. “Nicole! Not only did you lie about your death, but
you also lie to me about this? What authority did you have to take him away from me?”
Sigh!
This is not the reaction that I expected from Evan.
Shouldn’t he be happy and surprised to find out that he has another son?
Nicole raised the child on her own, so the least he can do is show some gratitude!
But his reaction is the total opposite.
“You shouldn’t act like this, Evan. Ms. Lane gave birth to two sons of yours, so you should…”
“You have no right to teach me what to do!” Evan reprimanded him angrily. Davin had no choice but to
keep quiet although he was not happy about it.
Sure, Evan was definitely surprised by the news.
However, he felt somewhat upset about it because he didn’t have the opportunity to take on the
responsibility as a father to this boy since he didn’t even know his existence.
Aside from that, this woman kept it from him and took away his right as a father. Would she hide this
from him forever if the boy were not kidnapped?
What right did she have to do so?
“Where is he now?” Evan lifted her phone and asked in a serious tone.
“He was kidnapped by Sylphiette. They want a ransom of two billion to release him.”
“Sylphiette?”
Davin spoke up, “Zane Lane’s daughter! I totally blame you for this, Evan. If you didn’t blame Nicole for
Lane Corporation’s bankruptcy, then Sylphiette would not kidnap her son, who is also your son. This is
all your…” Ugh! A moment of anger caused so much trouble!
Davin’s voice trailed off when he saw Evan looking daggers at him. He quickly shut his mouth tightly.
Now he won’t even let me talk!
Evan then asked Nicole to pass him the phone number used by Sylphiette to ask for the ransom. He
wanted to locate her whereabouts using the function on the phone.
Thus, Nicole called Sylphiette to inform her that she had the money and arranged to exchange the
money for her son right away.
She followed Evan’s orders and repeated what he told her to say on the phone. When Sylphiette got
the call, she was over the moon.
She said she doesn’t have eight million, but she’s able to take out two billion in such a short timeframe
after her son is kidnapped.
Seems like this is a useful tactic!
“Send the debit card to the designated location. I’ll release the b**tard child after I confirm that
everything is fine. I’ll send you the location in a while.”
Nicole had the phone on loudspeaker. When she heard the words “b**tard child”, pain shot through her
heart.
A deadly glint flashed across Evan’s eyes. Soon enough, Sylphiette will pay the price for her deeds.
A few moments later, Evan received a call to inform him of Sylphiette’s location.
“We’ll act separately! Both of you wait for her to confirm the location and deliver the card while John
and I will go to save the boy!”
Evan passed the card to Nicole and left with John in a hurry.
Tsk, tsk. He acted all tall and mighty earlier, but now he has handed her the card willingly.
“Evan, don’t forget! I won the bet!” Davin called out as he watched his brother leaving. However, Evan
continued walking like he didn’t hear anything.
At that moment, Nicole received the message from Sylphiette and sprang into action with Davin.
“Since your brother found out Juan’s location, why did he ask us to send the money to Sylphiette?”
“That’s because we need to stall her! We need to make her think everything is within her control and
that she can get the money immediately. Then, she’ll let down her guard and it’ll be the perfect timing
for us to strike.”
Nicole nodded in understanding. She hoped Sylphiette would treat Juan better after knowing she would
get the ransom soon.
Meanwhile, Sylphiette couldn’t help herself from sharing the news with Sylvia. Although Sylphiette was
excited to get her hands on the two billion, she did not forget to throw insults at Nicole.
Sylvia got heated too and continued scolding, “The little b**ch will hand over the money without any
objection, right? If she has this amount of money, she has probably been hooking up with a rich tycoon.
How lucky!”
“Mom, do you think she got the money from the b**tard child’s father?”
“The b**tard child’s father? I think it’s impossible. He’s probably a pathetic thug. Do you think she would
be able to seduce a bigshot at the bar? It’s more likely that she found a new man who is rich.”
They got carried away by their gossip and forgot that Juan was still locked inside the room.
