Chapter 152: Running Out Of Ideas


    "Mr.Leonard, let go of my mother! Do you want to further infuriate my daddy? It won''t go well for you!"


    Matteo warned, in the nick of time.


    Raymond released his grasp as though he was electrocuted.


    "I''m...I''m sorry, I didn''t know.I thought..." Raymond stammered.


    "Mr.Leonard, even if my father isn''t the president of Ronin Corporation, this is still no way to treat a


    lady, you got that? You went too far,’ Matteo continued, determined to give Raymond a piece of his


    mind.


    After saying that, he stretched out an arm to pull his unsteady mother to her feet.


    "Mommy, are you all right?" Matteo asked concernedly.


    Amora was distressed.


    It was unbelievable that with all the effort she''d made to leave Avenport behind, this man still managed


    to track her down.


    It was a frustrating and embarrassing experience to be cornered by her past which she sought so


    desperately to escape.


    "I''m fine, Matteo.Mr.Leonard had too much to drink today.Why don''t you bring your sister and we''ll get


    out of here,’ Amora smoothed the front of her skirt and tried to appear calm and dignified.


    The boys were speechless, as was Kane who had just rescued her.


    He gritted his teeth in irritation at her obstinance.


    Why couldn''t he keep his hands to himself? Why does he have to trouble himself to be kind to her?


    After she''d kidnapped his sons, he not only did not teach her a lesson, yet rescued her at the first


    chance he got.


    He''s reinforcing the notion that she has nothing to fear from him, is that it? If this is the way she wants


    to y, so be it.


    Kane''s temper red up again.


    With a wave of his hand, a guard snapped to attention and marched smartly into the room.


    "Mr.Ronin,’ said the guard.


    "Take the children." Kane ordered.


    "Yes, Mr.Ronin,’ heplied.


    "What are you doing, Kane? What right do you have to take them away from me?" Amora cried in fear


    and held them close to her bosom.


    "Me? Wasn''t that what you were doing?" Kaneughed coldly.


    "You whisked all three away without a word before.Have some sense of shame." At that, he gestured at


    his guard to grab the children.


    Amora went berserk.


    Without regard for the scene she was causing, she grabbed her skirt and ran after them, screaming


    "Kane, you monster! You return my kids to me.They are mine, do you hear me?"


    Her heart-wrenching sobs and yells followed Kane to his car.


    Kylo, who was at the driver''s seat, nced uneasily at the rearview mirror.


    He could see the stumbling and deranged figure of Amora in pursuit.


    "Mr.Ronin, perhaps there is a better way to handle this.Like it or not, Ms.Rory is still their mother."


    He meant to say "This is no way to treat ady", but thought the better of it.It was a cold night, and she


    was in the street in a thin skirt with no coat on.She may even risk freezing to death just to get her


    children back.


    However, the powerful and mighty Kane was not moved.


    After an indifferent nce at the rearview mirror, he ordered, "Slow down to 40mph."


    Kylo was perplexed.40mph? He must have misheard his employer.


    40mph outpaces a limping snail, but just barely.


    But, as soon as he did as instructed, he understood Kane''s intention.


    The figure behind them stopped when she realized that she would not be able to catch up.


    But the sight of the vehicle slowing down seemed to give her hope, and she started giving chase again


    with renewed vigor.


    Kylo wasn''t sure to feel amusement or horror at his boss''s sadism.


    After maintaining this ludicrous speed for about twenty minutes, Kylo caught sight of Amora stumbling


    and toppling over, too cold and exhausted to stand.

    "Ms.W- " Kylo eximed.


    "Stop the car!" Kane cut across him sharply.


    He exited the stationary vehicle into the prating frost of the night.


    Under the dimly lit streetmps shrouded by fog, Kylo watched, dumbfounded, as Kane bent over and


    picked up the limp woman with uncharacteristic gentleness.


    So, this was done on purpose? The unconscious Amora was ced in the car and the party proceeded


    with their journey.


    She, along with her children, was brought to a hotel owned by Kane.


    The hotel bearing his name was second to none in size and decor.


    Matteo said nothing throughout the entire trip.


    Being a cheerful and upbeat child, he was looking unusually somber.


    Even upon checking in, he stood holding his sister whilst ring at his father without a word.


    The events of the night had greatly angered him.


    Kane easily deduced this.


    "Matteo, are you mad at me?" he asked.


    Matteo did not answer.


    He maintained vicious eye contact with his father and clenched his fists.


    These two children havepletely different attitudes when ites to treating their parents.


    Before Kane arrived at the manor,n follows his mother but thinks about his father the most.


    When Amora was in trouble, Matteo was the one to defend their mother.


    It is likely the consequence of being raised by two entirely different adults.
