Chapter 326 Go To Hell
As they spoke, they reached a stall.
Federick was taking his daughter, Madeline, around and giving out his books.
He was as elegant and dignified as always.
Madeline was eleven years old. She was a beautiful child.
Her eyes were big and bright, but she was rather reserved. For the most part, she kept quiet.
“Federick, hey. Look who’s here.” Gemma carried Desi over.
“Desi?” Federick was shocked. “I thought Samuel isn’t free today?”
“Hello, Mr. Evans,” said Desi adorably.
Federick patted her on the head. “Long time no see, Desi.”
“Ms. Young, put me down,” said Desi.
Gemma let her down gently.
After getting down, Desi went over to Madeline’s side. She grabbed her hand. “Hi, Madeline.”
Madeline looked at her and nodded.
Federick glanced at the two girls.
Until now, Madeline was still not great at taking the initiative to socialize with others.
However, Desi seemed to possess some kind of charm which made Madeline willing to socialize with her.
As expected of Kathleen’s daughter.
“Mr. Evans, let me introduce you to Gizem. She is Desi’s doctor. She is the one who brought Desi here today,” said Gemma.
Federick was taken aback. “You brought Desi here?”
Gizem nodded.
Federick was in disbelief.
“Gizem, this is Federick Evans. He’s the one who published all these picture books. The contents are related to children with autism,” stated Gemma slowly.
“Nice to meet you, Mr. Evans.” Gizem extended her hand.
Federick followed suit and shook her hand while sizing her up at the same time.
In his opinion, Gizem wasn’t particularly pretty. She looked to be an average woman.
However, her eyes were extraordinarily bright.
It instantly reminded him of Kathleen.
“Pleasure to meet you.” Federick’s expression was neutral.
Kathleen and Gizem’s eyes were identical.
This caused Federick to worry.
What if Samuel misses Kathleen too much and starts a relationship with Gizem?
Nevertheless, at the same time, he knew that Samuel was not that stupid.
The moment Madeline saw Gizem, she was stunned.
She let go of Desi’s hand and ran over to Gizem, hugging her.
This shocked everyone around.
“Hello!” Madeline was very emotional.
Gizem was quite confused.
Federick went over immediately. “Madeline, let go of her please.”
Madeline shook her head.
She tightened her grip around Gizem’s waist. “It’s Ms. Johnson!”
“I’m so sorry.” Federick looked at Gizem awkwardly.
In response, Gizem shook her head. “It’s fine. Just let her hug me.”
“My daughter isn’t usually like this. The only person she acts this way around is Kathleen,” stated Federick meaningfully.
Gizem furrowed her eyebrows. “You mean Mr. Macari’s wife?”
“That’s right.” Federick took hold of Desi’s hand. “My daughter has autism. Previously, she never interacted with anyone. Her condition only improved after she met Kathleen. When Kathleen passed away five years ago, my daughter was devastated for quite some time. It’s only recently that she’s been doing better.”
This showed how much Madeline adored Kathleen.
Gizem replied politely, “I see. But, I’m not Kathleen.”
“I know, but maybe you guys are the same kind of person,” answered Federick.
That was why Madeline took such a liking to Gizem.
“No, it’s her!” Madeline shook her head vigorously. “She’s Ms. Johnson.”
She remembered Kathleen’s eyes.
“Be good, Madeline. Let’s finish giving out the books to the other children first, okay?” Federick tugged at Madeline’s hand.
However, the girl shrugged her father’s hand away.
Federick was put in a very awkward position.
“Dr. Zabinski, please take good care of Madeline. Federick, let me help you out,” said Gemma.
“Mr. Evans, I can help too,” said Desi.
With that, she pulled out a knife and aimed it at Gizem’s stomach.
Fortunately, Gizem reacted quickly. She swiftly grabbed hold of the woman’s wrist.
Coincidentally, Madeline and Desi came out of the washroom.
“Go back inside!” yelled Gizem.
The two children were frightened and too stunned to move.
The woman turned around and shouted behind her, “Don’t just stand there!”
Following her order, four men came rushing in.
D*mn it!
The four men headed straight toward Madeline and Desi.
Just as the two girls were prepared to scream, the men sprayed some sort of chemical on their faces and knocked them out.
Then, the men picked up the two children and headed out.
Meanwhile, Gizem was still holding onto the woman’s wrist. She twisted the woman’s arm to the side, then raised her leg to kick the woman in the stomach.
The woman heard a crack as her bones broke. Immediately after, she felt a sharp pain in her abdomen.
The pain caused her to collapse to the floor.
Gizem quickly ran out to catch up to the men and grabbed one of them by the shoulder.
The man turned and swung his fist at her face.
Gizem was still holding the knife that the woman used earlier.
Using the knife, she sliced the man’s wrist as hard as she could.
The man cried out miserably, knowing that his tendon had been cut through.
His screams attracted a lot of attention around them.
One of the men who was carrying Madeline flung her to the floor and headed over in Gizem’s direction.
At this point, Gizem already knew that they were most likely targeting Desi.
The two men that were carrying Desi had already gone much further ahead.
At that moment, Federick suddenly came running over.
“What are you guys doing?” he roared.
The man immediately turned his focus toward Federick’s yell.
Gizem let Federick deal with the man and went to rescue Desi.
Please don’t let anything happen to Desi!
