Chapter 894
Phantom Wolf might meet up with Katrina, and Carmen would fall into his hands by then. Since Quinton
was far more cunning and cruel than Katrina, he might even make the matter worse.
At that instant, despair filled everyone’s heart.
It waste; the sun had set, and the wind was cold at night. Carmen was given a nket to cover herself.
She meekly curled herself up on the balcony while looking at Justin in a pitiful manner.
“Uncle Justin, why isn’t Daddy here yet?”
Justin looked at her from afar and quietly replied, “Your daddy is in a meeting; he will be here soon,
darling. Cover yourself properly so that you won’t catch a cold.”
She nodded as she burrowed her little face under the nket. She had been sitting on the same spot as
she dared not move even an inch.
Outside the building, Sophia slumped onto the ground helplessly. Raising her head and looking at the
tenth floor again, she saw the red flower pinned on Carmen’s hair swaying in the wind. Two rows of hot
tears once again coursed down her icy, numb cheeks.
No, I must find Quinton; only he will have a way to solve this. I’m sure he doesn’t have it in him to just let
Carmen die! I believe there is still a shred of kindness in him.
Sophia wiped away her tears and spoke to Linus again. “Phantom Wolf has an email address to ept
all sorts of tasks. Uncle Linus, I’m sure that you know of it, right?”
Linus nodded, whereupon she uttered, “Send it to me.”
Linus immediately sent the email address to her before she returned to the SUV with the phone in her
hand. With her lips pressed, she thought and contemted for a long time but still could not figure out
how to bring this up to Quinton. Looking through the window, she nced at Carmen, and then at
Nathan, who was crying in Michael’s arms. The sight of them caused her to feel a lump in her throat, and
she failed to hold back her tears.
What should I do to convince Quinton toe over? She was well aware that if he were toe, he
would be walking straight into the lion’s den. Also, even if he really managed to rescue Carmen, the
Fletcher Family would detain him on the spot. Therefore, why should hee? I don’t have any
bargaining chip! I don’t have anything that he wants!
However, Sophia did not have much time left. She had to give it a try no matter what.
She switched on her phone and opened the selfie video mode. As she looked at the lens, tears rolled
down her cheeks like pearls falling from a broken ne before any words could be formed.
Nevertheless, she still tried to exin the situation in a strangled voice. “Hope, I’m Sophia. If you can see
this video, I beg for you to save my child.”
She focused the lens on the tenth floor. Part of Carmen’s little head and the red flower pinned on her hair
on the balcony of the tenth floor was caught on camera.
She turned the camera back at herself and murmured, “Hope…” However, she could not bear to finish
her sentence. After hesitating for a long time, the words seemed to have stuck in her throat, and she still
could not say them in the end; she could only cry soundlessly. “The address is East City Road No. 28.”
Finally, she stopped the recording and emailed the messy video to the email address.
After the email was sessfully sent, shey in the car and wept helplessly.
As time went by, Justin tried his best to keep the situation under control while Celine stayed vignt of
her surroundings. Meanwhile, Carmen curled herself up in the nket on the balcony with her beady
eyes wandering around. She dared not fall asleep as she was afraid that she might fall.
The people downstairs had prepared a rescue n.
Celine’s threat level had greatly exceeded everyone’s expectation. ording to Cooper’s n, she
would not be given any chances of survival because it would be impossible for Carmen to escape this
alive without killing Celine.
The Fletcher Family had no choice but to reluctantly ept the n and give up on Celine.
Michael went upstairs to take another look at Carmen, who was obediently curled up on the balcony with
her eyes wide open. She tried to stay awake although she was at the verge of dozing off at any time.
Suppressing his tears, Michael tried to make himself sound rxed as he consoled her. “Good baby, I’m
here. We are going to shoot our night scenes soon. Carmen, be good—don’t move and don’t sleep!”
Carmen seemed pitiful. “Daddy, it’s dark. I’m scared.”
He replied, “Shooting night scenes is like this. Don’t be scared. After we finish shooting for this movie,
you will be famous, and I will take you to go and participate in ‘Where Are We Going, Dad?’.”
Upon mentioning joining the program that she had been looking forward to, she became excited. Her
eyes were twinkling when she uttered, “But Grandpa doesn’t allow me to be an actress. He wants
me to go home and rear big sheep, but I don’t want to rear big sheep.”
The father and daughter chatted with each other with a few meters’ distance between them. He smiled
and replied, “No, it won’t happen. I promise!”
After a while, Carmen raised another question. “Daddy, are you going to divorce Mommy?”
Michael fell silent for a moment before forcing a smile on his face. “This will depend on you, Carmen. If
you behave yourself, your mommy won’t divorce me.”
Deep down inside, he knew that he would lose Sophia if he lost Carmen this time.
He looked at her with teary eyes and uttered, “You will always be my sweetest baby.”
After that, he turned to Celine, whom he currently felt was aplete stranger!
Her eyes were dangerous and cautious, resembling a snakes’, as they silently watched him from the
darkness.
He turned around and lowered his head, warm tears on his face.
He really could not make a choice between losing a child or losing his only sister—he couldn’t afford to
lose any of them!
At the same time, Justin, who had just received the news from downstairs, uttered to Michael in disbelief,
“He is here.”
Just now, Quinton had arrived at the scene.
An hour ago, Sophia’s email was sent out; an hourter, he showed up.
Step by step, he emerged from the darkness alone as the searchlights exposed his figure. Sophia could
not see his face vividly; she could only see his tall build under the strong beam of lights. As he paced
closer, his face gradually became visible—it was Quinton.
He was wearing a ck tuxedo with a neat bow tie and a bouquet of flowers in his left hand; he
resembled a gant gentleman who had returned from attending a ball. Yet it was the same gentleman
who was the main reason for Phantom Wolf’s notoriety—underneath the exquisite surfacey a
psychotic devil.
Countless guns were instantly aimed at him, but that did not make him retreat—he continued
approaching them instead. But when the safeties were turned off, signaling that they were ready to open
fire at him at any time, he slowly stopped his pace and raised both his hands,pletely revealing
himself under the enemies’ gun without any hesitation.
“Hope!” Michael dashed at him like a gust of wind and called out his real name. However, when he
arrived in front of him and saw his face, which was exactly the same as his father’s, he was unable to do
anything to him. His fist was clenched so tightly that he nearly hurt his own palm, but he was still unable
to throw him a punch.
He was the only person who could save both Carmen and Celine!
The two of them looked at each other from a distance—one of them had indifference in his eyes, while
the other one’s were filled with overwhelming rage.
If it weren’t for him, Michael would not have been separated from Sophia for so many years; Carmen
would not have almost died; Celine would not have be how she was now; and the situation tonight
definitely would not have happened!
