Chapter 1056 Bring Her To The Tang Family
The housemaid called Carlos and asked for one billion dors ransom money in exchange for releasing
the baby. She warned that, otherwise, she would kill her.
When Carlos and Evelyn arrived at the scene, Gwyn, who was just a few months old at the time, was
tied up using a rope. Next to the baby, the housemaid was stabbing an already dead dog again and
again with a kitchen knife.
It was a cruel and bloody scene, enough to make anyone''s stomach churn in fear, let alone a child who
was hardly a year old.
Who could have imagined that a regr housemaid could turn into something so inhuman? Another
maid, who was with her at the time, tried to drop out of the kidnapping and surrender to the police
because she was starting to get too scared.
The crazy housemaid disagreed, and when the two of them couldn''t reach an agreement, the crazy
Evelyn cried out hysterically, as she screamed to Gwyn to shut her eyes. But after witnessing the death
of the little dog, Gwyn was so frightened that she justy frozen at one corner, unable to respond to her
mom''s cries. All this time, she kept her eyes wide open and watched the crazy housemaid chop up her
partner.
Standing on the balcony of the third floor of the building, the housemaid threatened Carlos and Evelyn
that Gwyn would die the same way if they didn''t give her the money soon.
Carlos hade with some cash with him, just in case. He lifted the suitcase and said, "There''s 200,
000 dors in this. I''ll have the rest transferred to you. Let go of the baby."
"Oh no! I want to see the amount transferred first! One billion! Hurry up, or I will kill her!" The
housemaid denied any negotiation. She also knew that if she did not leave quickly, she would be
surrounded by the police.
The mad female continued to wave the bloody knife in front of Gwyn. The little girl was so scared now
that she burst into tears. The housemaid became irritated and yelled at the horrified baby, "Shut up! If
you cry, I will kill you with this knife!" She pointed the knife at the child, grinning viciously at her.
Evelyn''s heart broke into a million pieces when she heard her baby''s cries. She shouted to the
housemaid, "We need time to prepare the money! Please, give us my baby. I''lle upstairs and be
your hostage instead! Please don''t hurt her!"
"Huh? Do you think I''m an idiot?" The housemaidughed wildly. She then grabbed Gwyn by the neck
and lifted her up in the air. "Be quick! I will count to three; I want to see the money in my ount by the
end of it. Otherwise, I will kill her and throw her down from here!"
Gwyn''s face went red as she struggled to breathe. Evelyn couldn''t bear to watch her baby suffer.
She struggled to break free from Carlos and dashed towards the staircase, but he grabbed her hand
again. Heforted her in an urgent, but soft voice, "Evelyn, calm down. Listen to me. This will be
over soon."
But Evelyn wasn''t listening. She was on the verge of a meltdown. "Dad, she is dying. She''s dying..."
she cried.
There was a loud bang at that moment, followed closely by the housemaid''s scream.
Everything went silent for a second. Holding her breath, Evelyn looked up and saw that Gwyn had
fallen to the floor. The maid was holding her wrist where it had been hit by the bullet and shouted
hysterically, "I''m gonna kill her! I will kill her!"
She reached for the knife on the floor, ready to stab the baby.
Bang! Bang! Two more gunshots. The knife fell to the floor, and the housemaid went down with a thud
as well.
A group of uniformed men rushed to the third floor.
Evelyn wanted to follow after them, to check on her daughter, but her legs were too weak to even
move.
By the time Wesley''s men brought Gwyn down to Evelyn, the baby had cried so much that her voice
was hoarse.
The little girl struggled fiercely in the officer''s arms. No one was able to calm her down. Evelyn hugged
her tightly in her arms and continued tofort her. After crying for the longest time, she finally fell
asleep from exhaustion.
Gwyn ran a high fever that night. When she woke up the next morning, she was sensitive to any noise
and often cried out loud.
Before long, Gwyn began to show symptoms of PTSD. Carlos hired dozens of psychologists, all of
whom were world famous.
But whenever she saw strangers, she would cry aloud and refuse to let anyone get close to her.
Realizing that forcing her to mingle would only make her more aggressive, Evelyn finally gave up on
the psychological treatments.
Later, the housemaid was sentenced to death, and was immediately executed. But the trauma she had
caused to Gwyn was irreparable.
From then on, the Huo family members started to take care of Gwyn by themselves.
Even those housemaids who had worked for the Huo family for a long time were not allowed to
approach the kid or be alone with her.
Gradually, Gwyn became quieter and quieter. She stopped crying when she saw strangers, but she
didn''t talk to anyone either. She would just hide her face and stay silent.
It wasn''t until she had met Sheffield that the kid had started to smile and talk.
After telling Sheffield about everything that had happened, Evelyn trembled as fear washed over her.
She was afraid that the same horrible thing would happen again. It would break her heart to see her
daughter suffer any sort of harm ever again.
While she was narrating the past, Sheffield quietly moved andy down in the middle of the bed,
between Gwyn and Evelyn. With his left arm around Gwyn and right arm around Evelyn, he whispered
tenderly, "Evelyn, don''t be afraid. I promise that I will never let anything like that happen to our daughter
again."
She nodded. "I trust you, Sheffield. I really don''t want her to go through that in the future." A lone tear
fell down her cheek.
"She won''t have to," he promised. "I will protect you and our daughter." Anyone who wanted to hurt his
precious girls would have to go over his dead body.
"Hmm." She believed him.
She was ready to entrust her and Gwyn''s future to Sheffield.
The night grew darker. Evelyny on Sheffield''s chest and dozed off listening to his heartbeats, feeling
a sense of absolute safety.
In Theo Group
Early the next morning, Peterson arrived at thepany. He entered his son''s office and stared at him.
Sheffield was working and didn''t bother to greet him or even so much as look at him. After a long while
of hesitation, the old man finally asked, "Who is she?"
"Who?" Sheffield asked back, although he knew who his father was talking about.
"The kid Evelyn was holding."

"What do you care?"
Peterson knew that Sheffield would grab all the opportunities that came his way to piss him off, but he
had still rushed to find him early in the morning.
It was a matter of importance. He had to know if the child was his granddaughter. "Is she yours?"
"Why do you ask questions you already know the answers to?" Sheffield finally looked at him and
asked with a raised brow. "Mr. Tang, what do you think? Does she look like me or Evelyn?"
Peterson gaped at him. Sheffield didn''t act like a father at all. "Are you sure it''s your child?"
Displeased by the old man''s words, Sheffield replied coldly, "Careful there, Mr. Tang. What are you
implying? She is my daughter."
"Have you done a paternity test? Why didn''t Evelyn tell you about this kid before?"
"I don''t need a paternity test to know that she is mine. Mr. Tang, did youe here early in the morning
just to upset me?" Sheffield put down his pen and looked Peterson in the eye. He was ready for the
fight. It looked like Peterson didn''t want to acknowledge Gwyn as his granddaughter.
"No, that''s not why I''m here. If she is really your daughter, you have to bring her to the Tang family."
