Chapter 507 Search For Cali
At the hospital
Vicente''s phone was ringing.
"Count Nangong, it''s Demi."
"Well, have you arrived at the hospital?" Vicente and Leon were waiting for the results of the blood test.
They decided not to wait in the ward because they did not want to disturb John and Nina who had been
chatting happily.
"Have Van and Don arrived?" Leon asked excitedly. "I''ll go downstairs and get them myself. I haven''t
held them for days. I miss them so much."
Vicente was about to nod when she heard Demi''s self-reproach over the phone.
"I''m so sorry, sir. Cali ran away with the twins, and she slipped right through our grasp. We don''t know
where they are now. Please send some people to search for them immediately."
"I beg your pardon?" Vicente snapped. "Who took my babies away? And where are they now?"
"Cali took the boys away. On our way to the hospital, she faked a stomachache and forced us to stop at
a roadside bathroom. She even said that the twins also needed their diapers changed, so I went with
her. Then, with Don strapped to her back, she took Van from me and ran away. We chased her down,
but someone must have helped her escape. It''s like she vanished into thin air." Demi finished her entire
story in one breath and then said seriously, "I''m really sorry, sir. This is all my fault."
"Your apology is useless now." Vicente lost her temper with Demi. She had always been polite to
others, but when the children''s lives were on the line, her manners went flying out the window. "Find my
children, Demi, or I will hold you personally responsible."
She hung up the phone and said in confusion, "I don''t believe this. Cali would never do such a thing.
It''s just impossible.
I''ll look deeper into thister. For now, I need to find Van and Don." Vicente immediately called her men
and ordered them to search for Cali and the children.
The smile on Leon''s face disappeared when he heard that the babies were taken away. He asked in
disbelief, "Cali kidnapped Van and Don?"
"I''m not sure if that''s true, but they''re missing," Vicente answered anxiously.
"I''ll join the search." Leon turned around and left.
"We have to tell John about this. He needs to be involved as well," Vicente said.
She turned around and rushed to Nina''s ward. The door mmed against the wall as she pushed it
open. John was feeding Nina some congee when she came in. The two stared at her in confusion.
"Vicente? What''s wrong? Did something happen?" Nina''s voice was still a little weak and her skin
looked pale. She had lost so much weight that the wind outside might blow her away once she set foot
outdoors.
Since Nina had just woken up and had not made a full recovery, Vicente did not want to stress her out
and make her slip into her sleeping spells again. She gritted her teeth, put on a stoic face, and turned
to John. She told him in amanding voice, "Let''s step outside. There''s something I need you to do."
John paused for a moment, still holding the bowl of congee. Then, Nina reached out her hand and took
the bowl. She held John''s wrist and said, "Vicente, I want him to stay here with me."
"No," Vicente snapped, losing rein of her emotions. Seeing that pitiful look on Nina''s face that was
absolutely unbearable, she changed her tone and said gently, "Something urgent came up, and I need
his help. I''ll make sure that hees back right away after it''s done. Let''s go, Sean."
Looking at Vicente''s eagle eyes, John immediately sensed the direness of the situation. At the moment,
only two things on C Ind mattered to him. One was Nina and the other was his children. If Vicente
was talking about something that concerned his family, he definitely needed to check it out.
John put his hand over Nina''s and smiled gently at her. "Finish your congee, honey. I''ll be right back."
"Okay." Nina had been very clingy to John since she woke up. She had forgotten him for a long time,
and now that her memories of him returned, she was scared that being apart from him would make her
forget again. Therefore, she needed to be around him all the time. That was the only way she would be
at ease.
Holding the bowl of congee in her hands, Nina watched John and Vicente leave the ward.
As soon as they were out, Vicente looked around and made sure she was alone with John. Then, she
lowered her voice and said, "Cali ran away with Van and Don. We need to look for them. Don''t say
something like the twins have nothing to do with you. They love you, don''t they?"
Upon hearing that, John pushed the ward door open and said to Nina, "Don''t wait up for me, honey. I''m
heading out to do something important. I''ll be back as soon as I can, okay? Get plenty of rest while I''m
gone."
"Okay." Nina smiled.
John smiled back at her. The moment he closed the door, his gentle eyes instantly turned cold.
The matter was about his family after all.
Noah had told John that he might be the biological father of Nina''s children. John agreed with him. He
grew surer of it after Nina woke up.
He could not believe that someone dared to take his children away.
Even if he was on C Ind, he was still John, and whoever dared to hurt his wife or children had to be
prepared to live a life of pain and suffering that even death could not cure.
Cali changed into a set of inconspicuous clothes with Van in her arms and Don on her back. She came
out of the fitting room, took out some money, and paid for the clothes.
As soon as she stepped out of the shop, she almost bumped into one of Demi''s men. Fortunately, she
was able to react quickly and turned away.
Demi and her men were on Cali''s heels. After slipping away by the skin of her teeth, she dared not stop
and try to contact Vicente. She kept going and kept her head down.

Finally, she got on a taxi and asked the driver to drive her to the hospital.
In the cab, Cali heard the news over the radio. The media had already gotten wind of Vicente''s missing
sons. The news said that they had been taken away by a servant named Cali and that no one knew
where they were now. The news also said that anyone who provided useful information would be
rewarded handsomely.
Cali could not believe her ears.
She asked the driver cautiously, "Excuse me. Do you know what they''re talking about in the news?"
"Count Nangong''s two sons have been kidnapped by their nanny, and everyone''s looking for her now. I
haven''t had time to surf the Inte to see what she looks like. If I see her, I will definitely tie her up
and bring her to Count Nangong," the driver said with righteous indignation. "What''s wrong with people
these days? How could they steal other people''s children? They''re so shameless."
But Cali was not listening. She was only realizing now that she and the twins were in grave danger.
''This must be Demi''s doing. And now Count Nangong thinks I''ve betrayed him.
What should I do?
Should I just let some random stranger take me to the count with the twins? Maybe that way, I can still
get a chance to exin to him what really happened. He''s a reasonable man, and he always finds out
the truth.''
"Who do I contact to provide information?" Cali asked.
The driver answered, "I think Count Nangong''s assistant is the point person. Her name''s Demi, and
you can check out her contact number on the Inte."
As soon as Cali heard Demi''s name, she felt rmed. It seemed that her idea just now would not work.
If Demi sunk her ws into her, she would never get to the count alive, and the children would fall into
the enemy''s hands.
Under the current situation, Cali decided that the hospital was thest ce she should be.
"Pull over right here, please."
"What? Okay."
The driver stopped the cab, and Cali paid the fare. Keeping her head down, she ducked out of the taxi
and joined the street crowd.
As soon as she slid out of the cab, she saw the men in suits who were looking for her and the twins.
They stopped every woman with infants who fit Cali''s description and questioned them.
At this point, Cali did not know who to trust anymore. It was very likely that Demi had her own men
mixed in with Vicente''s loyal guards. Trying to reach the count was pointless since he was still unaware
of Demi''s true colors. Cali had to hide and n her next moves. She went to the wharf, got on a boat,
and rowed toward the nearest small ind.
The forest ind was the safest ce she could think of at present.
However, her low profile had not been low enough after all. As she paddled off the coast, a boatman
nearby recognized her and made the call.
"Hello, is this Demi? I think I just saw thedy you''re looking for. She has the two babies with her and is
about to escape. Come to the wharf quickly."
