Joseph!
Nicole ran over quickly and looked for her son.
"What is going on?"
Samuel noticed the worries on Nicole's face. He walked towards her and grabbed her arm.
"Have you seen Joseph?"
Nicole felt safer when she saw Samuel. He was her support all the time.
Samuel frowned.
Joseph?
He remembered Joseph telling him that he was going to the restroom. But it had been a while.
"I will go and look for him."
"Let me go with you. Just now, Zayn just called me and told me that Major is going to revenge on the people around us, and he wanted me to pay extra attention to the children. That was when I realized that Joseph disappeared. I am not a good mom. I lost Joseph. I should have gone to the bathroom with him."
Nicole could not stop blaming herself.
Today was Tim's wedding. They had thought of any possible accidents that might happen and were prepared for them. But they did not think of the possibility that they would do something to the children.
Nicole was about to cry. Samuel comforted her, "It was not your fault. You cannot foresee everything, and this was an accident. Trust me, Joseph will be fine. Come, let us go and look for him."
"OK."
They went to the bathroom.
Because it was during the banquet, people walked in and out of the bathroom non-stop. This was not a good thing for Samuel and Nicole, because Joseph could be taken away without being noticed by others.
Samuel looked at Nicole and whispered, "Wait for me outside. I will go in and look for him."
"Sure."
Nicole nodded.
Samuel walked into the bathroom. He searched everywhere but did not see Joseph. However, he found a button on the ground that was from Joseph's clothes.
His expression became gloomy.
They targeted a child.
Major!
You'd better make sure that my son is fine. Otherwise, I will tear you into pieces even if I need to go the Country F!
Nicole saw Samuel come out without Joseph. She immediately knew that her guess was true.
"I will go and find Joseph."
Nicole was about to walk out when Samuel stopped her.
"It is inappropriate for you to leave in the middle of today's event. Besides, Major's people might be looking at us. If they are not responsible for taking Joseph away, our absence would give them a hint. At that time, Joseph would be put into a more dangerous situation."
"But..."
Nicole could not think logically now.
Samuel hugged her tightly and said to her in a low voice, "Nicole, I know you are worried about Joseph. I am worried too. But now is not the time to panic. Listen to me. Call you Sally now. She is the only one who can solve this. If it is true that Major's people took Joseph away, she would do something, since she has been in Country F for many years, and Morgan is Joseph's master. It would be better to have them help us rather than we search for Joseph with no direction."
Nicole felt a little relieved when she heard Samuel's words.
"Right. I forgot that we have Sally and Morgan."
Nicole immediately took out her phone. She called Sally and Morgan, and briefly explaining what happened.
Sally promised that they would start investigating and would let Nicole know once they found Joseph. Morgan also offered her help without hesitation. That was no doubt about it because she treated Joseph as her son.
However, Nicole was still worried after having the phone calls.
The Lunar New Year was coming, and the temperature was low outside. Joseph did not wear too many clothes. She was worried about Joseph's health.
Samuel was anxious too. But he looked around for a while, then held Nicole's hand and said to her, "We should go back. We will be suspicious to them if we disappear for too long."
"OK."
Nicole nodded, but her eyes turned cold.
Major!
This man deserved to die.
When they came back to their seats, the whole atmosphere was filled with joy. But Nicole could not feel their happiness anymore.
She knew that her reaction was not respectful to Tim and Evelyn, but what could she do?
Her son disappeared.
Right now, nothing was more important than Joseph's safety.
Joseph became unconscious because of the gas in the bathroom. When he realized what happened, he already inhaled a lot of gas. His resistance to drugs was not very strong since he was only a child. Before Joseph fainted, he cursed angrily.
By the time he woke up, he was in a car.
The car was bumping, and his hands and feet were tied. There was a rag in his mouth. The whole scene was like a kidnapping on TV.
Joseph was speechless.
The car was a cheap van with a fishy smell, and the rope that tied Joseph was so rough that he felt hurt on his wrists and ankles.
These people were idiots.
Joseph shook his head. Then, he heard the two men in front of him start talking.
"Bro, do you think we will get paid for kidnapping this child? Today is Mr. Tim's wedding, and all the people who went there were famous and powerful. This child is dressed well. Do you think he is the son of some wealthy family?"
