Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 361

Samuel looked around but didn't see Zoe. So, he was getting a little anxious.

He asked a lady to go in the toilet and see if Zoe was there.

As the saying goes, money makes the mare go. The woman searched through the toilet carefully, but she did not see Zoe there. So, Samuel was panicked.

He lost his daughter!

There were so many people here. What if Zoe got kidnapped by a child trafficker?

Samuel was very anxious, but he didn't dare to tell Nicole now. He didn't want her get worried too. But he started to look for Zoe through his connections.

He had checked all the surveillance videos, but he didn't see Zoe in them.

There was no surveillance around the public toilet, so Samuel could not know when Zoe came out and where she went.

He was so anxious when Nicole called him.

"Babe, where are you? We'll go buy some food. You can bring Zoe over."

Nicole just got off the exciting roller coaster, and Lucas was crying out in delight beside her.

Hearing that they were so happy, Samuel said in a low voice, "OK, you guys go buy it. Zoe and I will be there later."

"Alright, hurry up. We're waiting for you!"

Nicole did not find anything wrong and hung up the phone.

Samuel was so racked with guilt and anxiety.

Zoe was his princess and his precious daughter. How did she disappear in the blink of an eye?

Samuel asked around, and the old man who sold ice cream said to him, "Are you looking for a beautiful little girl? She wears a white princess dress and has a very nice hairpin on her hair. I remember she talks sweetly to me. Is she about this tall?"

Samuel nodded.

"Yes, sir. Do you know where my daughter went?"

"She went there with a little boy. You could go down this road and see a bamboo grove. There are some giant pandas inside. Only a few people go there. So, maybe the two children went there."

Hearing that, Samuel did not dare to waste any time and ran over.

After walking for over a hundred meters, Samuel heard someone playing the flute. And he could tell that the person was quite good at it.

But Samuel was not in the mood to appreciate it. He followed the sound and saw Zoe sitting in a pavilion with a little boy in the bamboo grove.

The boy was playing the flute. Zoe held her chin with both hands and listened to it with admiration, which made Samuel very uncomfortable.

Zoe only used to look at him like that. Why did she look up to a strange boy now?

"Zoe!"

Samuel quickly walked over.

The boy stopped playing the flute and saw Samuel walking over. Before he could say anything, he saw Samuel picking up Zoe and complaining, "Why didn't you tell me before coming here? I was almost scared to death. I thought you were kidnapped by a child trafficker. Mommy and Lucas will be sad if you were taken away by a stranger."

Only then did Zoe realize that she hadn't told Samuel before she went with the boy. So, she felt a little guilty.

"Daddy, I'm sorry."

"Don't do that again, okay?"

Since Zoe had realized her mistake, Samuel could not bear to criticize her anymore.

When the boy saw this, he explained, "Sir, I'm sorry. I brought her here."

"Who are you?"

Samuel turned to look at the little boy.

The boy conducted himself with grace. Samuel could tell that he was not born in an ordinary family.

The boy stood up and said politely, "I'm Armand Jones. I saw Zoe was bored, so I showed her around."

"Hey, do you know that if you take my daughter away without my permission, you're kidnapping her?"

Samuel did not want to argue with a child, but he could not subdue his anger now.

The fact that his precious daughter was attracted to such a little boy made him feel out of sorts.

Armand was stunned. He did not expect it would be so serious. He could only whisper, "I'm sorry. I won't do it next time."

"There is no next time. Just stay away from my daughter."

As Samuel spoke, he hugged Zoe tightly like a treasure, as if he was afraid that her daughter would be snatched away.

Zoe was a little unhappy.

"Daddy, Armand is very nice. He bought me ice cream, but he didn't eat his because he knows that I can't eat and I would be tempted. Look, our ice creams have melted."

Samuel was even more depressed when he heard her daughter speak up for the strange boy.

"Honey, you know nothing. There are many evil people in this world. Boys who look good are not really good. Besides, how can you be bought with an ice cream? Girls should be reserved."

Samuel rarely spoke to Zoe like this.

So, Zoe felt aggrieved.

"Daddy, you're bad! Armand is so nice. How can you think of him as a bad person? He can even play the flute. And it sounds very nice!"

The more Zoe spoke for Armand, the more uncomfortable Samuel was. And he was pissing on Armand.

"Just listen to me. Alright, let's go. Mommy and Lucas are getting anxious."

Samuel said as he was about to leave with Zoe in his arms.

Zoe struggled to jump off his arms. She took off the hairpin on her hair and handed it to Armand.

"Armand, this is my favorite hairpin. I want to give it to you. Thank you for buying me an ice cream and playing the flute for me. I'll repay you when we meet again."
