“Mm-hmm.” Connor nodded.
Natalie picked him up and stared at him. “Where did you see him?”
“At the airport. I’ve been looking through the security footage of the city to try and find him. I’ve had no luck so far. Unexpectedly, this morning, I saw him. It wasn’t just him either. Jacqueline was there too,” Connor said seriously.
Although overseas countries were not as advanced as here, there were still a fair amount of security cameras installed all around. Most high-traffic places had them.
Sean could hide, but he had to come out at some point. That was why Connor had thought of hacking into the security footage to take a look. He wondered if he could catch a glimpse of Sean. Yet for a month or so, he found nothing.
Just as he thought Sean had really gone into hiding forever, he finally saw him on the security footage at the airport.
“Jacqueline too!” Hearing that name, Natalie gripped her fists.
As expected, she was no longer in J City. Sean had sneaked her over to his side.
“Baby, what were they doing at the airport?” Natalie asked as she grabbed Connor’s shoulders.
With a frown, he answered, “They wanted to leave. Uncle Sean got his men to investigate if Daddy had loosened security. Fortunately, Daddy didn’t, so they weren’t able to get out.”
“In other words, they’re still in the city, right?” Natalie narrowed her eyes.
Connor nodded. “Yes. But I lost track of them after that. After they came out of the lounge, they went to the parking lot. From there, they left through the side door. There aren’t any security cameras there, so I don’t know where they went. I checked other security cameras but found nothing. I’m sorry, Mommy. I lost them.”
Looking at his guilt-ridden expression, Natalie rubbed his head. “Baby, don’t say that. It’s not your fault. Sometimes the enemy is just too sly.”
“But I had the chance to lock him down,” Connor muttered as he twiddled his fingers.
