Chapter 1692
After locking eyes with him for a few seconds, I looked away and didn''t want to linger further.
The servant quickly brought in some food. Aaron took care of me while Hendrix stood still and
watched.
After I filled my stomach, I regained some strength. I officially picked up the baby for the first time
and looked at her face greedily, hoping to remember every detail.
The tense atmospherested for about a minute before Aaron spoke.
"It''s my fault. I found the missing nurse and confirmed it. Last night, she worked with a bodyguard
outside the manor and switched the baby. The kidnapper fled abroad."
After he said that, the whole room was quiet again, and the atmosphere was tense and more
pressing.
I looked at my daughter in my arms and had nothing to say.
It was no use being cautious. Those people had already set up a trap. No matter how well Aaron
did, he couldn''t escape from the trap.
After a long time, I suddenly took a deep breath and turned my head to look at Hendrix, who was
standing in the distance, and said coldly, "Where were youst night?"
Hendrix''s voice was low without any ups and downs. "I was tracking down Owen Milton''s secretary.
He had important documents from that time, which could prove that my parents were innocent. We
heard people say they saw the secretary in Vegnd... When you called, I heard that something
happened to Mr. Reid. I''ve just boarded the ne at that time."
"Have you found him?" I remained indifferent.
"No." Hendrix said frankly, "Last month, there was news that he was in Madarsburg. Just like this
time, we didn''t find anything."
I sneered and felt that things were ironic.
I understood Hendrix well enough to know how to take his words. Even if he knew that it was a long
shot, he would still go. As long as he could avenge his parents and clear away their grievances, he
wouldn''t hesitate even if he had to lose his life. After learning that something had happened to
Charles, he chose to return immediately. But so what? Our son had just been born, and he was still
taken away. He was so young, and he was still a premature child. Would those people be able to
take care of him?
This was a warning.
Eddison and his fellows had never let go of their guard against Hendrix, and deliberately took away
his only son in order to make him stop pursuing revenge. Perhaps, from the moment Hendrix had
grown into his position, they had alreadyid out an inescapable, waiting for us to fall into it.
"Hendrix, we''re too naive. So what if you''ve found your enemy? They can afford to lose. What about
us?" I was on the verge of breaking down, but I had no choice but to force a smile at the child in the
cradle. My eyes were drenched in tears and I could no longer tell whether I wasughing or feeling
sad.
Hendrix stood where he was without saying a word. His tall figure was like a solid wall that blocked
all of my emotions.
I continued to say, "You can leave. I''ll go and find the child myself. Don''te near us anymore."
I loved Hendrix, but I didn''t have the courage to continue loving him.Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org.
The current me was not only Arianna Reid, and not only Hendrix''s wife, Mrs. Roberts. I was the
mother of two children. As long as they were safe, I could give everything to them.
My words sessfully stimted Hendrix. Almost as soon as I finished speaking, he strode out
without saying yes or no.
As soon as he left, there were only Aaron and me in the room, with the child in my arms.
"Have you sent someone to look for him?" I said lightly.
The child was gone, and I was in no mood to rest.
