Chapter 578


    Indeed, Ron was arrested by the police, but it had nothing to do with the kidnapping.


    He had a history of drug abuse for over ten years and was heavily dependent on drugs. Whenn sent


    him some money, he immediately spent it all on drugs. With the substantial amount of money he


    received. Ron could allord to get drugs that were of higher quality. Feeling proud, he invited a group of


    friends to have a party at the karaoke bar.


    Jack had been keeping an eye on Ron all along. At first, they didn’t even take action when Ron


    purchased the drugs to avoid blowing their cover. However, thanks to Ron, the police managed to


    uncover a significant drug smuggling ring by tracking his suppliers


    Now that a group of Ron’s friends had gathered together to do drugs, the police couldn’t turn a blind


    eye any longer. Jack decided to inform Kevan beforehand.


    Kevan had never paid much attention to Bethany’s safety. Whenever Jack called to report the situation,


    Kevan would only listen passively without inquiring about their progress in saving Bethany,


    “You can handle things as you see fit,” Kevan replied nonchntly.


    With his approval, Jack had nothing to worry about. He rounded up Ron and his friends, bringing them


    to the police station, and closed down the karaoke bar all at once.


    Since Ron was taken into custody, there was no one to take care of Bethany. The long-term n they


    had to capture the true mastermind behind the kidnapping was abandoned. Jack ‘rescued” Bethany


    and brought her to Kevan. e, all this was done in secret without alerting anyone, including Kevan’s


    parents.


    Of course.


    Bethany had suffered tembly while she was being held captive. Although she had endured years of


    abuse from Ruby, Ron’s blows were much more severe. Once he got high from drugs, he lost all sense


    of reason and did not hold himself back while beating her up.


    Jack cautioned Kevan specifically, “The young girl is in a dreadful state, m entally and physically, I


    suggest that you find a psychologist to


    treat her as soon as possible.”


    Kevan nced at Bethany, who was standing beside Jack limidly.


    She had lost a ton of weight. There were numerous bruises on her exposed limbs and some of the


    wounds on her body were still bleeding.


    The sight of her was gut-wrenching.


    N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    What changed the most about Bethany was her personalty.


    She was brought up by Ruby and did not receive any lessons on basic etiquette, so she always had


    poor posture. However, Bethany had


    never been so withdrawn and antisocial as she was now.


    She seemed to constantly have her quard up and was wary of anyone who approached her, Even if


    someone touched her Iglly, she would be extremely startled and quickly withdraw to a safe distance.


    shouting hystericaly, “I know what I did wrong! Don’t hit me!”


    As Jack exined Bethany’s condition, he was filled with sympathy and quilt.


    Several of his colleagues who were responsible for monitoring the surveince had requested


    numerous times for permission to break in and rescue Bethany. They pleaded, “Jack, please give the


    order. We can’t bear to watch this anymore!”


    However, Jack gritted his teeth and refused to give in. Despite that things didn’t turn out as they had


    expected. They weren’t able to hold


    out until Ron and Xavier had direct contact.


    Jack muttered in self-me, “I had known that things would end like this. I should have arrested Ron


    from the beginning.” Then Bethany


    wouldn’t have had to suffer so much harm.


    Kevan remained indifferent. Inparison to Bethany, he was more concerned about the two cats that


    she had tormented.


    Because of her actions, those cats would never let their guard down around other humans, even after


    such a long time.


    Jack squatled down in front of Bethany and gave her a kind smile,


    Nervously. Bethany stared at him with widened eyes, like a startled animal.


    “Go home with your father!” It was rare for a strong, bury man like Jack to speak in such a gentle and


    kind tone.


    Her beady eyes flickered with a glimmer of longing and hope, but Kevan ignored herpletely.


    Turning around, he ordered his men.” Take her away.”
