Chapter 238


    In her room, Janice was clutching a doll while sitting on the bed. Tears kept falling onto the doll,


    soaking its clothes. Maybe she was reminiscing about something or forcing herself to ept that


    her daughter Lucy had been taken away.


    By afternoon, the sunlight had softened.


    At Sunnyde Abbey, in the master bedroom on the second floor, Janice was sitting by the crib,


    holding her drowsy daughter Lucinda in one hand and gently patting her son Keith on the bed with


    the other. She was softly singing a song, lulling the two children to sleep.


    Keith, however, didn''t seem sleepy at all. He was kicking his short legs and smiling at Janice.


    "Why aren''t you sleeping yet? Your sister Lucy is about to fall asleep."


    Seeing that the little guy was still full of beans, Janice stopped her luby.


    Keith kicked his legs for a while, then started crawling around on the bed, making cooing noises at


    Janice.


    "Don''t be so loud; Lucy''s already asleep."


    Keith''s voice was loud. He tried to sit up on his own, but, unfortunately, being only half a year old,


    he couldn''t. He could only keep calling out to Janice.


    Seeing that Lucy in her arms had fallen asleep, Janice put Lucy in the crib and picked up Keith.


    Held by Janice, Keith wasughing and kicking his short legs non-stop, looking very happy.


    "Knock knock."


    There was a knock on the door.


    "Janice, your milk is heated."


    It was Wendy, the maid, outside the door.


    Janice didn''t move, simply replying, "Come in."


    Wendy came in with a tray in her hands, on which was a cup of hot and fresh milk.


    The two kids were fed a mix of breast milk and form. In order to produce more milk, Janice drank


    a soup that was beneficial forctation and milk, a fresh cup of milk every morning, noon, and night.


    "Janice." Wendy, seeing that Lucy was asleep, lowered her voice. She put down the tray, picked up


    the cup of milk, and said softly, "Janice, let me hold Keith. You drink your milk."


    Janice hummed in response, took the cup of milk, and Wendy freed her hand to take Keith.


    After ying with Wendy for a while, Keith began to yawn.


    "He''s sleepy."


    Wendy smiled. She walked around the room holding Keith, asionally ncing at Janice. Seeing


    Janice slowly sipping her milk, with the cup bing emptier, Wendy''s eyes showed a hint of relief.


    However, her face remained expressionless.


    By the time Janice finished her milk, little Keith was asleep.

    Janice put down the cup, stood up, took Keith from Wendy, and said, "I''ll be with the kids for their


    nap. I''m not receiving any visitors. No matter whoes, please refuse for me."


    "Okay, Janice."


    Wendy picked up the tray and respectfully left the room.


    As soon as the door closed, she quickly left.


    Janice gently put Keith back in the crib. The two children were sleeping side by side. Looking at the


    peaceful expressions on their small faces, like little angels, Janice''s eyes were filled with


    tenderness.


    She covered the two kids with a thin nket and pulled down the mosquito from the crib.


    She began to feel tired and said softly, "Why am I suddenly so sleepy?"


    Unable to resist the fatigue, she went back to the big bed and soon fell asleep.


    About ten minutester.


    The unlocked door was carefully pushed open, and a young woman quietly entered. She looked


    nervous but acted quickly. Once in the room, she first checked on Janice. Seeing Janice sound


    asleep, a cold sneer shed across her lips.


    Her aplice had told her that he had put some sleeping pills in Janice''s milk, enough to keep


    her asleep till nightfall.


    Then she turned to the two children.


    The woman looked at the two children with a moment of astonishment.


    They were so cute.


    Keith might have been ufortable or restless in his sleep. When the woman lifted the mosquito


    net, he woke up.


    The woman bent over and picked up Keith. When Keith was held by her, he pushed her with his


    little hands, not wanting her to hold him. But his strength was small, and his push had no effect on


    the woman''s intention to take him.


    "Wah!" Keith opened his mouth and cried.


    The woman immediately covered his mouth to silence him.


    Naturally, Keith struggled hard. In his struggle, he pooped a big one. Even though he was wearing


    diapers, the smell was noticeable.


    The woman was obviously a clean freak. Smelling the stench, her face instantly scrunched up, full


    of disgust, and she almost threw Keith away.


    While she was disgusted, Keith pushed away her hand that was covering his mouth and cried loudly


    again.


    The woman panicked, turned around, and threw Keith back into the crib. Then she quickly picked


    up the still-sleeping Lucinda and fled at full speed.


    Wendy was waiting for her outside.


    "Hurry up; use the back door. There are people all the way to assist you; move fast!"


    The woman, carrying Lucinda, ran towards the back door under Wendy''s guidance.


    Sure enough, everything was arranged inside. The woman easily escaped from Sunnyde Abbey.


    Her own car was waiting for her outside. She got in with Lucinda, and the car immediately started


    and quickly drove away.


    Keith, who had pooped, was still crying loudly in the crib.


    Keith was a clean freak from a young age. Every time he pooped, he would wail until someone


    changed him.


    "Janice, why is the door open? Keith''s awake. Is he hungry, or did he poop? Let me see. Where''s


    Lucy?"


    Hearing Keith''s cries, the first person to show up was Shirley.


    Shirley only saw Keith in the crib. She initially thought that Janice was sleeping on the big bed with


    Lucy. First, she changed Keith, and then, holding the still-crying Keith, she walked over.


    As she walked, Shirley consoled Keith, muttering, "Normally, a clean diaper does the trick and he


    stops crying, but why is he still crying today? Janice, he might be hungry. Should we breastfeed him


    or make some form?"


    Reaching the bed, she saw Janice sound asleep. Assuming Janice was worn out from looking after


    two kids, Shirley decided not to wake her. But there was no sign of Lucy on the bed.


    Where was Lucy?


    Carrying the weeping Keith, Shirley circled the bed and even checked under it, worried that Lucy


    might have rolled off the bed.


    But there was no sign of Lucy.


    Recalling that the door was ajar when she entered, she was puzzled. Janice usually kept the door


    closed and locked when she napped, only opening it after waking up.


    But today, the door was open, and Lucy was nowhere to be seen.


    "Something''s wrong!"


    Shirley turned ashen, quickly bending down to shake Janice, calling out loudly, "Janice, wake up!"


    After a few attempts to wake Janice failed, Shirley decided not to waste any more time. She quickly


    pulled out her phone and dialed Nathan''s number.
