Fortunately, Jack bought a charger for her. After connecting the charger to the solar panels, Madison managed to charge her phone.
As soon as Madison snapped a photo, a smile appeared on her face.
At that moment, she forgot about the suffering she endured when Hunter locked her up. She just wanted to be wild and free for once.
“Ms. Madison, come and set off the fireworks with us.”
“Sure.”
Whistling, the fireworks shot into the sky and exploded. The children’s happy faces could be seen underneath the brilliant lights.
The atmosphere in the study of the Williams residence was another story.
Hunter flung the ashtray onto the floor, which gave a loud crash. He couldn’t get any information from his intelligence network!
They couldn’t figure out the identities of the kidnappers. They couldn’t track where those kidnappers went either.
He thought that the kidnappers would ask for ransom soon, but five days had already passed.
It had been an entire five days, but there was nothing from the kidnappers.
He couldn’t figure out why they risked so much to snatch his child but never asked anything from him.
The child wasn’t the only one missing. Madison, who went after Connor, had disappeared as well.
Hunter’s eyes were bloodshot. He had only napped for a few hours in the past few days.
But it was extremely difficult to look for people without any clues.
What if those people were his enemies and had killed Connor? He should’ve received news of Connor’s death at least.
If they were kidnappers, why hadn’t they asked for ransom even after so many days?
It was New Year’s Eve, and other people were gathering and having the time of their lives.
In contrast, Hunter walked to the balcony alone, allowing the blanket of snow to cover his body.
“You should rest, Mr. Williams.” Brent draped a coat over Hunter.
Hunter gazed at the snowflakes dancing under the streetlights. A lonely look flashed across his lean face.
He said in a hoarse voice, “Brent, what should I do if they’re dead?”
What should he do?
Right now, any words of comfort would turn into a dagger that pierced his wounds.
Brent could only repeat, “Mrs. Williams and Master Connor should be fine.”
Hunter lit a cigarette. As the smoke mingled with the wind and snow, he said in a low voice, “I thought that I’d be happy if she died.
“When I saw her leaping into the speedboat, I realized that I was wrong. I was terrified that she might leave me.”
Before Brent could respond, Hunter answered his own question, “She once asked me if I’d be happy if she died.
“I never got the chance to tell her that I didn’t want her to die. I want her to live a happy life!”
At that moment, Hunter was already losing his mind. He gripped Brent’s hands tightly, saying, “I never got to tell her the truth about her child.
“Brent, do you think that she realized it already? Was that why she risked everything to save Connor?”
“Mr. Williams, you’re exhausted. You need proper rest.”
Brent was exasperated. “I know that you’re worried about Master Connor and Mrs. Williams. But if you collapse, who’ll save them when the kidnappers appear?
At first, Hunter also thought that it was most probably some bold kidnappers. As days passed, he got less confident about his guess. He feared that it might be his enemies.
He was worried that a box containing their bodies or body parts would show up on his doorstep one day.
The current situation was like casting a stone into water. There was no reaction, and no one knew what was happening in the water.
Hunter’s patience and wits, which he took pride in, began to crumble as time passed.
He didn’t dare fall asleep. Once he did, the bloody scenes he experienced before would have Madison and Connor in them.
On the seventh day, Hunter finally collapsed. He hadn’t eaten or drunk anything in days, and he didn’t even sleep.
He watched the surveillance footage time and again, so much so that his eyes were bloodshot. The men he sent out never brought back any useful info either.
On the second day of the new year, Brent found Hunter lying unconscious in the bathroom. He hastily called over the family doctor.
No one expected that Madison and Connor would quietly return to Aldenvine at that moment.
Connor simply thought that Madison was taking him to a new place to sightsee. He had no idea that after this trip, they would be separated for life.
Aldenvine had heavy snowfall for the past two days. The tree branches were heavy with snow. Madison made a snow rabbit on the bench, and Connor loved it.
This child was extremely adorable. Madison loved him to bits.
She patted Connor’s head in longing. “Connor, it’s time I say goodbye to you. Go home to your mother. I hope you grow up well.”
Connor sensed that something was wrong. Madison stuffed the string of a hydrogen balloon in his hand, and the child’s attention was instantly on the balloon.
It was right then that she abandoned the child in a flash.
Connor sensed that she was leaving. Tossing the balloon away, he ran toward her while shouting, “Mama, Mama …”
He hadn’t taken more than two steps before he fell into the snow. Even so, he didn’t give up.
He didn’t care about the cold snowy ground as he ran toward Madison with all his might.
He didn’t know what he did wrong that his mother would suddenly abandon him.
“Mommy!” He could only watch as Madison picked up her pace. Then, she disappeared from his sight.
Madam Burgess heard the cries. She wondered why a child was crying out in the snow.
Following the direction of the sound, she looked at Connor with a shocked expression. “Master Connor!”
She dared not believe it. Hunter couldn’t find him even after scouring every inch of the city, yet she found him on her way to get groceries.
“Oh my goodness, Master Connor! If you had come back any later, your dad would’ve died of anxiety!”
Madam Burgess picked Connor up while she informed Brent that the child had been found.
Madison left only after seeing that scene.
Hunter had a high fever, and he kept calling Madison’s name, “Madie, Madie.”
Madam Burgess joyously brought the child back. Tears remained in the child’s eyes.
“Good boy, don’t cry. Go and see your dad.” Madam Burgess wiped the child’s tears away, her heart breaking.
As if sensing something, Hunter slowly opened his eyes. When he saw Connor, he thought he was dreaming.
“Daddy.” Connor could already call out to him in a clear voice. Hunter hastily pulled the child into his embrace.
The joy of recovering a lost child filled his heart. He quickly looked at Madam Burgess. “What happened?”
Slapping her thigh, Madam Burgess immediately started describing. “Mr. Williams, I had a dream last night.
“I dreamed that I picked up an egg, and guess what was in the egg? Why, it was Master Connor! I knew then that he would be found soon. In the end…”
Hunter frowned. “That’s way too far back. Get to the point.”
Madam Burgess hastily gave Hunter a quick rundown of how she found Connor. Hunter frowned even deeper. “You didn’t se anyone other than him?”
“No. When I found Master Connor, he was crying. He was also holding a hydrogen balloon in his hand. Oh, right, he also kep calling Mama.”
“Mama?” Hunter thought.
Connor had never been willing to call Andrea Mama, so the person he was calling for couldn’t have been her. It could only b Madison.
Brent, who had already brought men to investigate the scene, reported to Hunter right away. “Mr. Williams, I’ve checked the surveillance.
“Ms. Evans was the one who sent Master Connor back. She purposefully left Master Connor on Madam Burgess‘ way home from grocery shopping.
“That way, Madam Burgess would notice him.”
“Was there anyone else besides her?” Hunter asked.
“No.”
“Keep investigating.”
Hunter was even more confused now. Could it be just like Andrea said, that Madison had hired people to kidnap Connor?
If she wanted to threaten him, why would she send the child back without even a request?
Hunter quickly denied that possibility. The child was still wearing the emerald necklace she gave him.
She could’ve harmed Connor that night. She didn’t have to get people to kidnap Connor at all.
It wasn’t her.
So why didn’t Connor’s kidnappers harm her or the child?
No matter how long he thought about it, Hunter couldn’t make sense of it. He decided to call Madison up to ask about it.
When he dialed her number, he found that Madison’s phone was turned off.
Hunter sat up despite his illness. What did Madison mean by this?
He got someone to track Madison’s location, but he soon found that she never returned to the apartment. She didn’t even contact Everly.
Instead, he found that she had just withdrawn a sum of money.
