Chapter 1787 Shaney


    Stuart stood guard at the door while Fehmen went to the upied bedroom, and Jaird went to


    Raeleigh.


    Meanwhile, Raeleigh pestered the man to give her the exact amount as she didn''t bring any change


    with her. Seeing Jaird, the man stumped and asked her what was going on.


    Jaird was fast to respond and immediately roared, "You shameless woman! How dare you have an


    affair behind my back?! I demand an exnation!"


    The man was stunned. Raeleigh hid behind one of them and said, "I didn''t. Don''t nder."

    A man ying pokerughed, "You two fight somewhere..."


    Before anyone saw it, Raeleigh flung a knife at the man, stabbing his neck. Just as he was getting up,


    Jaird twisted his neck while Fehmen kicked another guy in the stomach and delivered a knee to his


    face, knocking him out cold. As Raeleigh went to the other end of the room, Jaird had already broken a


    second neck.


    All the guys in the unit were either dead or knocked unconscious, but they still couldn''t find the twins.


    "Where are the kids?" Raeleigh asked. Fehmen shook his head and said, "I only saw a man lying on


    the bed when I came in. Could we have made a mistake?"


    Raeleigh shook her head. "No, they must be here."


    Raeleigh looked around the room and went to the closet. She opened it and saw Cedric and Heitor


    unconscious and tied up at their hands and feet so they couldn''t make any noise.


    Raeleigh untied them and headed out the door with the kids, handing one to Stuart. One of them woke


    up and was about to struggle when Stuart said, "I''m your mother''s friend, and I know your father too.


    Please don''t shout, or people wille after us."


    Carrying the other child in her arms, Raeleigh ran toward the elevator with the Lee brothers following


    right behind. It was faster to leave in the elevator, but just as the door opened at the lobby, the


    kidnappers'' backup stood in their way.


    Jaird immediately took out his guns, shooting at anyone who was in his way. He was quick as speed


    was essential in surviving in the underworld. So no matter who it was, as long as they were in their


    way, they were as good as dead.


    Raeleigh and Stuart followed behind the brothers, with each of them guarding their side. Raeleigh felt


    gunshots all around her, but she could do nothing but continue heading out.


    They got in the cars once they left the building. Jaird followed Raeleigh, and Fehmen followed Stuart.


    The two cars drove out promptly as Raeleigh called for the extraction team.


    The twins were quiet on their journey to safety, especially the boy in Raeleigh''s arms, holding onto her


    for dear life. Raeleigh didn''t know why a kid as young as him would ept her so soon.


    Generally speaking, Cedric and Heitor were raised in the Atkinson family from birth and rarely


    interacted with the outside world, but the two children seem to know Raeleigh.


    Fehmen pulled the car at the gates of the Atkinson family''s home. Everyone at home was long waiting


    for their arrival outside. Seeing their cars, they immediately opened the gates. Raeleigh quickly entered


    the vi carrying the child, Fehmen following right behind. Entering the house, Raeleigh ced the


    child down, and Deanna cried, holding her baby in her arms.


    Raeleigh then went back outside to see Stuart heading toward them with the other child in his arms and


    Jaird behind him.


    Seeing familiar faces filled the Atkinson family''s home, and Raeleigh knew they were now safe.


    Deanna cried, holding her sons in her arms, but Raeleigh had to break the news to her. "We''re running


    out of time; they won''t let us off the hook so easily. You should prepare immediately; take what the


    children need. I''ll send you guys away."


    Dumbfounded, Deanna asked, looking at Raeleigh, "Where are we going?"


    "Somewhere safe. We''ll leave once it''s dark."


    "Raeleigh, this is my home. Where do you want me to go?"


    Although Deanna was worried, she couldn''t just leave just like this.


    "Deanna, listen to me. I''ll bring you and your children back after this is all over. Or if you trust me


    enough to take only the twins away."


    Staring dazedly at her boys, Deanna got down on her knees to talk to them, "Cedric, Heitor... I can''t


    leave Daddy alone; he hasn''te back yet. Can you two leave first?"


    Seeing Deanna crying her lungs out, Raeleigh thought for a moment and turned to Stuart. "Stuart, you


    go with the children. I''ll bring Deanna with me. The rest of you stay here."


    Everyone exchanged nces while Raeleigh video called Rhys and showed them his grandsons.


    "Grandpa, Grandma."


    Although the twins looked disheveled, they were not miserable, unlike Deanna, who was bawling.


    Rhys asked, "Are you two hurt?"


    "No, Grandpa, I''m fine, but I''m hungry." Heitor wasn''t afraid, speaking methodically. Although Rhys was


    one to be valorous, his heart couldn''t help aching. Thest time he felt so was when he was in his


    twenties.


    "Good that you two are fine."


    Raeleigh squatted down and announced, "I have something to tell you. I''m sending them to a safe


    ce, but I won''t tell you where. I will have someone send them back after this is all over. Jacky will


    agree with my decision, and Deanna has already given me her yes. I''m not asking for your opinion, or


    is this a negotiation but a let-you-know."


    "Grandpa, we''re leaving. Take care of yourself."


    "Grandma, I''ll be back in a few days."


    Seeing the boys so well-behaved, Lottie cried even harder. Raeleigh then hung up the video call. It was


    getting dark outside, so Raeleigh prepared some food and took the twins to the vi''s rooftop.


    A military helicopternded at the rooftop at eight that evening, and Stuart boarded it with the twins


    while Raeleigh stood at a distance, watching as it took off again.


    Raeleigh walked to Deanna and took her away in her arms.


    On the helicopter, a little girl in sportswear, shorter than the twins, jumped down from her seat and went


    over to them, initiating a conversation, "Are you two, my new friends?"


    The little girl was as cute as a bunny. Stuart stared at the child, somewhat lost in thought. He had long


    heard Mr. Jepherson had a daughter. Could it be...


    Stuart left his seat and went to the girl, kneeling as his hands trembled, asking, "What''s your name?"


    The little girl had big, sparkling eyes like Raeleigh''s, thinking the two more and more alike as he stared.


    But the child''s gaze looked simr to Santiago''s.


    The little girl answered with a joyful hum, "I''m Shaney."


    "Shaney? How old are you?"


    "Three."


    "Who''s your mother?"


    "Raeleigh Anson."


    Stuart took a look at the man sitting opposite him, who he had seen in a photo before. He was the


    infamous Austin Quirk.


    Stuart inched his hands toward Shaney''s arms and asked, "Shaney, tell me, what''s yourst name?"


    Shaney looked at Austin before turning back to Stuart. "Harvey."


    Dumbfounded, Stuart nTristany burst into tears. Since Lucy passed, Stuart got emotional easily.


    Hearing Shaney''s words, he pulled her into his arms, hugging her with a death grip, reluctant to let go!
