The men in ck quickly came forward, bowing respectfully. "Ms. Larson."


    Jessica''s eyes locked onto them as she cut straight to the point. "Have you gotten the girl like I asked?"


    "Yes, Ms. Larson," one replied.


    Her eyes lit up with satisfaction. Finally, she had taken the legitimate child Wendy had given birth to! As soon as Be was taken care of, her true identity would remain a secret forever. With that weight off her shoulders, she could finally breathe easy.


    "Take me to see her. Now!"


    "Right this way."


    The men in ck led Jessica to a small, dark room. The door had a tiny window, and through it, she spotted Ang cradling Be in her arms. The grandmother and granddaughter were huddled together in the corner.


    Jessica froze. She wasn''t sure if her eyes were ying tricks on her, so she looked again. She then realized she wasn''t mistaken-Ang was really there!


    What was going on? Why was Ang here?


    Jessica turned to the men in ck. "Why is there someone else inside?"


    "Well, something happened. When we went to capture the girl today, we unexpectedly ran into this old hag. She tried to save the girl, so we had no choice but to bring her along."


    Goddamnit!


    Jessica felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Never had she imagined such aplication-her future mother-inw had been taken as well.


    Ang tried to rescue Be? When did she start caring so much for the little girl?


    A deep sense of danger washed over Jessica, but more than anything, she felt fear.


    She snapped at the men in ck, "Are you crazy? How could you take her too? Do you even know who she is?!"


    "She''s just some olddy in a wheelchair," one of them sneered.


    Ang had kept to herself all these years. It wasn''t surprising these men didn''t recognize her.


    Jessica was speechless with anger. "She''s no ordinary old woman-she''s Ang Hawk!"


    "What?" The man froze. "That olddy is Mrs. Ang?"


    "Yes! Now, do you realize the mess you''ve gotten us into? Stanley definitely knows his mother is missing and that she vanished with Be. I wanted you to bring the girl here quietly, but now you''ve dragged Stanley into this! What are we going to do?"


    The men in ck looked panicked. Everyone had heard about Stanley''s ruthlessness, and this was his territory.


    "We had no idea she was Ang Hawk! She kept struggling and we were afraid of being exposed, so we had no choice but to take her. You have to think of something-if Mr. Hawk finds us, none of us will survive!" one of them warned Jessica.


    They were all in the same boat now. No one could escape.


    Jessica nodded grimly. "I''m trying to figure something out, but what choice do we have? Stanley has probablyid a trap all around us. The moment we move, we''ll be caught


    Besides, this was Ang. Hurting her was thest thing Jessica wanted.


    "Ms. Larson, what do we do now?"


    "Lock them up for now. Don''t touch them until I find a way


    "Alright."
