Chapter 503


    Zion watched helplessly as Nathaniel left the club. Despite being anxious, he couldn''t do anything.


    Meanwhile, the little girl beside him had been crying voicelessly. It seemed like she was either


    frightened or it might have been because of other reasons.


    Surprisingly, Zion had a strong desire to protect her.


    She was the one who had been keeping him safe when he first entered the room. Even though Zion


    had no idea why she was crying, he still moved a little closer towards her.


    Zion knew that this wasn''t much of help, but that was the only thing he could do at the moment.


    However, the girl didn''t notice his small movement and she was immersed in her inexplicable


    sadness.


    On the other hand, the guards at the basement finally let out a sigh of relief.


    "He''s finally gone."


    "Yeah, just let them be. The two children, one was dead and another one being taken away have


    nothing to do with the Ye family. So what even if they find out about it? We can just deny it."


    "Where''s the child being taken to?"


    "I heard that kid was sold to a human trafficker, but I don''t know the exact location."


    "Is the child from our ce?"


    "Yeah. That child is sick and weak. He can no longer handle the extreme torture. The boss ordered


    us to get rid of him as soon as possible, just in case if he dies here. At least we can earn some cash


    by sending him away."


    The two guards were discussing openly as if no one was present. To them, these children were as


    useless as an ashtray on a motorbike.

    Meanwhile, Zion realized that the girl beside him cried even harder after hearing their discussion.


    Perhaps she was familiar with one of the children?


    However, Zion didn''t dare to inquire about it directly from her.


    After Nathaniel''s departure, the guards finally loosened up slightly. They untied the children and


    handed them some food before heading out.


    Just then, the kids were eating emotionlessly.


    They didn''t care much about the food that was given to them. They were fine with it as long as they


    could survive.


    As long as they were alive, these young hostages still could escape the ce, and that was the only


    way that they could control their destiny.


    Zion stared at the stale steamed bun in front of him. Although he had no appetite, Zion still had to


    eat it to relieve his hunger.


    Since the abduction, Zion knew that he was no longer be the precious grandson of the Ye family.


    Instead, he was probably just a person who would be abused to death at any time.


    Seeing that the little girl was still crying incessantly beside him, he whispered softly, "What''s wrong


    with you?"


    However, she kept shaking her with no intention of telling him.


    Then, Zion halved the steamed bun in his hand to share it with her.


    "Here, eat up. Look at you, you''re too skinny. I have no idea why you''re crying and it''s okay even if


    you refused to tell me, but you have to save some energy too. Also, I promise that I will bring you


    out of here. As long as we escape here, freedom is ours and we can do whatever we want!"


    Just then, the little girl suddenly raised her head to look at him. It seemed that she had some doubts


    about what he had said.


    Zion turned his head and he nced around. It seemed that the children around him had obviously


    heard what he said, but they were not taking his words seriously.


    Indeed!


    These captives were brought over to this ce and clearly, everyone wanted to get out of here


    initially. However, weren''t they still stuck inside helplessly?


    In this cruel ce, they were either destined to be dead or sold away. Meanwhile, those who were


    left behind were still unable to predict their fate.


    They were indulged in hopelessness, and it was despairing as if there was no tomorrow. All they


    could do now was to live like a puppet under the shadow.


    Seeing their dejected expression, Zion said anxiously, "To be honest, I''m Mr. Ye''s son, Zion Shen.


    I''m the grandson of the Ye family. Also, I will find ways to bring everyone out if my Daddy can find


    me."


    Upon listening to his confession, the children were quite surprised. Clearly, they were shocked by


    Zion''s true identity.


    After that, Zion looked around before saying, "However, I''ll have to think of a n to get in touch


    with my father. When the timees, I''ll be able to bring everyone out of this ce. But before this


    happens, you guys have to maintain your strength and don''t try to go against those people, alright?"


    Perhaps it was either because of Zion''s sincere expression or the Ye family''s strong influence, the


    children started to believe his words.


    Meanwhile, the little girl lightly tugged at Zion''s sleeve and she wrote a few words on the ground.


    "My name is Gissel Ye. My sister was one of the two children that were taken away. Can you help


    me find her after leaving this ce?"


    Then, she quickly wiped her writing off the ground.


    Zion immediately understood the reason she was crying just now.


    "Don''t worry, my father has sent someone to search for her. He will definitely rescue her, even if she


    is not her child. So, we shouldn''t give up and I''m sure we will find your sister after fleeing this ce!"


    Upon hearing his words, Gissel immediately nodded her head and she cried even harder.


    Seeing that there was still a glimmer of hope, the children became even friendlier towards Zion.


    They even treated him as their leader while listening to hismands.


    Indeed, Zion was particrly an outstanding child no matter where he went.


    In the meantime, Nathaniel didn''t dare to go back. Following the report by his subordinates, he


    headed to the railway station immediately. Unfortunately, Nathaniel was unable to find the children


    as it was too crowded.


    Although he had already sent people to chase after them, Nathaniel was still extremely concerned.


    Could it be that Zion was one of the children being taken away?


    If it was that brat, he would''ve caused amotion no matter what, and Zion would find a chance to


    escape. However, there was also a probability of him being drugged by those people and was


    unable to resist.


    At the thought of everything his son was about to bear, Nathaniel became increasingly anxious and


    furious. However, he was rtively distressed rather than angry.


    Soon, the sky grew darker gradually.


    There was still no news from the people who had gone out to search for Zion. Just as Nathaniel was


    nning to investigate the matter personally, he received Mango''s call.


    "What''s wrong? Are you feeling ufortable?"


    Nathaniel knew about Mango''s current health condition. His wife wasn''t in the right state to endure


    the stress. However, this matter was truly an emergency and he couldn''t brush Mango aside.


    Mango said anxiously, "I was a little tired in the afternoon, so I took a small nap. But after I woke up,


    Sisi suddenly told me that Wisdom had left home."


    "What do you mean by that?"


    At this moment, Nathaniel was on the verge of breaking down.


    Zion was still missing, and Wisdom was nowhere to be found.


    Mango said tearfully, "I don''t know. Sisi said that Wisdom went to the toilet and he didn''te out


    after a while. When she went in to check up on him, Sisi noticed that the window was open and


    Wisdom was gone."


    "This troublesome rascal was just like Zion! Don''t worry, I''ll go home right away."


    Nathaniel rushed back to the vi.


    Meanwhile, Sisi and Newell were in remorse.


    "Mr. Ye, I''m sorry."


    "You don''t have to apologize. So, have you guys found him?"


    "No. Everyone went out to look for him but to no avail. After all, Wisdom is with Zion for some time


    and it seems that he has learned some skills from him."


    Nathaniel snickered after hearing her words.


    "Just how long has he been learning from Zion? Don''t you realize that you guys have been by my


    side longer? Are you saying that the runaway child is even smarter than you guys?"


    Everyone felt incredibly ashamed by those words.


    "Hurry up and find him!"


    Nathaniel felt a throbbing pain on his forehead.


    He had to deal with two rebellious kids.


    Just when Newell was nning to look for Wisdom, Madam Ye suddenly called.


    "Nathan and Mango, Wisdom is back. Don''t worry about him, but what about Zion? Wisdom passed


    out as soon as he arrived, and I haven''t had the chance to ask him anything yet. So, hurry up and


    come over!"


    After that, she hung up the phone.


    Upon seeing Nathaniel''s dazed expression, Mango couldn''t help but ask, "What''s wrong? Who


    called you?"


    "It''s Mom. She said that Wisdom has returned to the Ye''s Mansion, but he fainted afterward. We


    have to go there now."


    "Why did he go over there? Also, he isn''t injured, right? How did he faint so suddenly? Did


    something happen to him on the way?"


    Nathaniel understood her concern.


    "Let''s go back and have a look first. Now that we haven''t found Zion yet, we should ensure


    Wisdom''s safety instead."


    "Alright!"


    Soon, they arrived at the mansion. They met Nick at the entrance, and he was seen rushing back in


    a hurry.


    "Nathan, Mango! You guys are here too?"


    "I heard that Wisdom is back. We''re here to have a look."


    Then, the three of them walked into the hall.


    Madam Ye was a little anxious. She had already invited a family doctor over to treat Wisdom.


    Everyone was worried, especially Mango and Nathaniel. They didn''t know why Wisdom had left the


    house and returned to the mansion, nor did they know what he had gone through on his way here.


    The couple was deeply anxious about the kid.


    Finally, the doctor came out. He looked at the people around before saying, "The child is doing fine.


    He is just frightened. So, please apany andfort him often."


    "Thank you, doctor. Is my grandson okay?"


    Madam Ye was especially worried.


    "He''s awake. You can go in and have a look, but don''t scare him."


    After hearing the doctor''s advice, everyone entered the room.


    Wisdom seemed to be terror-stricken.


    Nick finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Wisdom.


    "You rascal! What''s good about running away from home? Such a bad influence you''ve got from


    others! Are you looking for a beating?"


    Then, he swung his arm forcefully up in the air.


    Wisdom quickly curled up while quivering in fear.


    "Enough! Shouldn''t you be grateful that the child has returned safely? Are you still trying to scare


    him off?"


    Madam Ye was infuriated and she pushed Nick away before holding Wisdom tightly in her embrace.


    "It''s okay, don''t be afraid. Grandma is here. Tell me, what happened just now? Why did youe


    back on your own? Where''s Zion?"


    Hearing this, Wisdom burst into tears.


    "Grandma, you guys have to save Zion. Hurry up!"


    Everyone was even more downhearted upon seeing him cry.


    "What''s the matter? Tell us slowly."


    Wisdom sobbed, "Zion and I decided to go to the club and learn shooting, but we met some human


    traffickers on the way there. They kept saying that we belonged to them, and the people around


    didn''t help us at all. Zion took the opportunity to kick them hard on the legs. Then, he quickly pulled


    me away. But I was too stupid and I ran too slow. Zion asked me to seek help at the shooting club


    nearby, and he went out to lure them away. When I ran to the club, there were a lot of people there.


    I couldn''t find my way out, and I didn''t know how I fainted there. After I woke up, there was a


    stranger who kept saying that she was my mom. I quickly escaped while she was asleep to run


    back home. Yet, Zion was gone. Grandma, Uncle, Mommy, and Daddy, you guys have to find Zion!"


    Wisdom cried again, and Madam Ye couldn''t bear to see him suffer this way. She was so worried


    that she almost lost her temper after hearing that Zion was with the human traffickers.
