Chapter 883


    But currently, this kind of sympathy had turned into intense pain.


    When the car stopped below the apartment of the Burton family, Rosalie almost sprinted out of the


    car and ran toward the stairs.


    The Burton family lived in an old residential area. There was no elevator but only stairs. They lived


    on the fifth floor. When Rosalie reached the fifth floor, she could hear scolding and shouting from


    one of the apartments.


    “What do you mean he has been kidnapped? Who would kidnap an orphan? What’s the use of


    kidnapping that boy? You brat, are you trying to trick your father into giving you money with that kid?


    I can tell you, I share that money with your dad. It has nothing to do with you!”


    The soundproofing in this kind of old residential area was not good. Rosalie could hear the tart and


    mean voice clearly, which belonged to Jete, Zekiah’s current foster mother.


    “I saw someone carry Zeki into a car with my own eyes. He must have been kidnapped!” Karina’s


    worried voice could be heard. “If you don’t save Zeki, I will! I’ll use the money my mom left me to


    save Zeki! I know that my mom has left me a lot of money!”.


    “What do you mean, your mom? Your mom was already dead a long time ago!” Jete yelled


    angrily. “Even if my mom is gone, the things she left me are still here. This house belongs to my


    mom! If I sell it, I’ll have the money to save Zeki!” Karina shouted.


    “Damn you! You want to sell this house? Are you crazy? Even if that kid is kidnapped, our family


    has no money to save him. He is not rted to us by blood!”


    “Who says so? Zeki is my brother!”


    “Patrick is your real brother. He’s rted to you by blood. Who cares about that kid?”


    The sound of a p in the face could be heard, and then the front door was opened. Karina ran out


    of the house and was stunned when she saw Rosalie.


    “M-Ms. Leighton!” Karina called out. There was an obvious red mark on one side of her cheek,


    which was obviously caused by the p a moment ago.


    Jete’s voice came from behind. “Where the hell are you going? I’m telling you, it will be useless


    even if you go to your mother’swyer.”

    Jete rushed over and tried to reach out to pull Karina into the house.


    Rosalie raised her hand and shook off Jete’s hand, which was on Karina. She then pulled


    Karina behind her. “What are you going to do to her?”


    Jete raised her voice. “She’s my daughter. I don’t need an outsider to intervene on what I’m


    going to do to her. Get out of my way! I’ll teach Karina a lesson!”


    “I’m not your daughter!” Karina responded furiously. In her heart, there was only one person who


    was her


    mother.


    “Damn you!” Jete was going to beat the hell out of Karina!


    Rosalie was protecting Karina’s thin and small body. She raised her hand and directly sped


    Jete’s hand. “You better stop! If you dare to touch her again, I will not let you off!”


    “You won’t let me off? Who do you think you are? Let me tell you, as long as herst name is


    Burton, I can hit her whenever I want!” Jete raged viciously. She straightaway countered


    Rosalie by twisting her hand instead.


    Rosalie’s hand was already injured before this. It became more painful when Jete did this to


    her. Seeing this, Jete waved her hands around more aggressively.


    Rosalie held Karina tightly in her arms. She was Zekiah’s only warmth in the Burton family. She was


    the one who protected Zekiah no matter what happened. Therefore, she had to protect Karina no


    matter what!


    However, she didn’t feel the pain she had expected. Instead, Rosalie heard Jete’s cry of pain.


    “Hand… My hand is about to break…”


    10.211


    Wayne happened toe out of the house when he saw a stranger sping Jete’s hands


    tightly. Her face was turning red, and she was wailing in pain.


    “W-Who are you? Let go of my wife quickly!” Wayne shouted.


    However, the stranger who was holding both of Jete’s hands didn’t move at all. He ignored


    Wayne and just looked at another handsome man standing beside him, as if waiting for his order at


    any time. Of course, Wayne noticed that this handsome man was the actual boss. He was dressed


    in a well-tailored suit and looked elegant but cold. “Tell him to let go of my wife quickly, or I’ll call the


    police,” he threatened.


    “You can try calling the police.” Jonathan nced at Wayne icily. Wayne felt terrified when he met


    Jonathan’s eyes.


    Rosalie didn’t expect Jonathan to arrive so soon. Instantly, her eyes turned red again. “Jon, Zeki


    has really been kidnapped!”


    Even though she had just heard some conversations outside the house, it was enough for her to


    sort things out.


    “I’ll find him!” Jonathan continued, “Are you okay? Did this woman do anything to you just now?”


    Before Rosalie could speak, Karina, who was protected by Rosalie, recounted, “My stepmother


    wanted to hit me just now but Ms. Leighton helped me block. My stepmother even twisted her


    hand.”


    Hearing Karina’s words, the surrounding air pressure became much lower in an instant, as if even


    the air had be icy.


    “She injured your hand.” Jonathan held Rosalie’s hand and examined her hand carefully. “Does it


    hurt?” “It hurt a little bit, but it’s better now,” Rosalie stated indifferently. She didn’t want Jon to feel


    guilty about it.


    In the past two days, he had felt guilty enough because of her hands.


    As for the evil deedsmitted by Jete, Rosalie would pay her back bit by bit one day!


    Jonathan turned his head and red at Jete. His captivating eyes were full of hostility. “You


    should just die!”


    Jete was scared out of her wits by the hostility in Jonathan’s eyes, but she still protested


    stubbornly, “I-I was punishing my own daughter. She was the one who wanted to protect that brat.


    That’s none of her business.”


    Nevertheless, Jonathan didn’t bother to listen to her nonsense anymore. He ordered his


    subordinate, “Do


    it!”


    With a click, the bodyguard who was gripping Jete’s hand immediately got his job done.


    Instantly, Jete screamed in pain and almost fainted.


    Rosalie didn’t expect the bodyguard to take action as soon as Jonathan gave the order. It’s not that


    she pitied Jete, but she was worried that Karina, who was in her embrace, would be terrified by


    the situation.


    Wayne was so frightened that he hurriedly hugged Jete. A neighbor next door heard the sound


    and opened the door to see what happened. Jonathan instructed, “Clear the scene. Order all the


    residents on this floor to leave!!”


    “Clear the scene?” Wayne thought. He was stunned when he heard the words!


    Then he noticed that there were some men who had already surrounded him and his wife in the


    corridor, which made it impossible for the neighbors to see what was going on.
