Chapter 1980


    Rosalynn’s car was parked around a bend


    She sat there for a while, as the rain pelted against the car windows.


    “Should I go in and check?” Felix asked.


    Rosalynn shook her head.


    At that moment, someone finally came out of the deserted entrance of the police station.


    Ableson, umbre in hand, was guiding Wayne towards the car parked in front


    He got Wayne into the car first e2


    Ableson looked around instinctively


    Due to Rosalynn’s parking spot being in Ableson’s blind spot, he didn’t notice anyone.


    Ableson didn’t dare to waste any more time.


    After folding up his umbre, he got into the car promptly.


    “President Silverman, let me find you something to eat first?” Ableson turned to Wayne.


    Ableson had been with Wayne for many years and had never seen him like this.


    Even when Secretary Tesdal faked her death and ran away, Wayne was miserable, but never like this.


    Now Wayne seemed like a soulless shell,


    There was no light in his eyes, no life in him.


    To put it crudely, it was as if he was possessed.


    “No need, let’s head back to H City” Wayne paused for a moment.


    “Yes, sir!” Ableson didn’t dare to disobey Wayne and immediately drove the car towards H City.


    Originally, Ableson had set the GPS for Moonlit Lake. But Wayne nced at his disheveled self and


    said, “Let’s go to the apartment in the city center first.”


    “Sir, when your wife finishes her work and realizes that you’re not home, she might…”


    Wayne looked up at him.


    His impassive gaze fell on Ableson, “She’ll be more worried if she sees me like this. If she can’t find


    me, she’ll ask you just tell her I lost my phone and I’ll be home


    soon”


    “Understood” A heavy feeling settled in Ableson’s heart.


    He opened his mouth several times, but couldn’t bring himself to ask why Wayne was here and why he


    did so.


    Wayne looked out of the window


    In the early hours of the morning, the kid had called him.


    There was a lot of noise on the other end, a woman’s curses and the sound of things being smashed


    were clear and persistent


    “Mr Silverman, my mom’s going to kill me. Pleasee and save me!”


    Wayne immediately got up.


    As he walked towards the elevator, he asked about what had happened.


    I don’t really know My parents were fighting. My mom said I wasn’t her son. She said my grandma and


    my dad had killed her son and had reced him with me. She wants to kill me to apany her own


    son!”


    The woman’s hysterical screams could be faintly heard.


    From the child’s tone, Wayne could clearly feel his helplessness and fear.


    Find a ce to hide I’ll be there soon!”


    After driving for nearly two hours as per the address given by the boy, Wayne finally found the terrified


    child in a deserted amusement park amidst moming fog


    He looked even more disheveled than thest time they had met


    His feet were bare and covered in injunes. His face was all bruised, with one check swollen There were


    marks on his arms and legs that looked like whishes


    Did your mom do this? Wayne asked


    “Mr Silverman, what should I do? I have no home Everyone is lying. My mom, my dad, even my


    grandma What should I do what about my future?

    “Don’t cry”Wayne squatted down, gently wiping away the boy’s tears


    If they retreating you like this forget them Come with me I’ve told you, my wife is a very kind person.


    She was kind to me even when I was a bad person Shell definitely be kind to you too Waynes voxa


    choked slightly


    The child’s background was eerily simr to his own past
