At first, Howard hesitated. But in the end, he couldn’t resist Rebecca’s desperate pleading and her tearful
cries.
If he’d abandoned her and let the Bells drag her back, she’d be lucky to survive–more likely, they’d tear her
apart.
She’d already stirred up way too much trouble.
Eventually, Howard gave in and agreed to hide her. The moment she was discharged from the hospital, he placed her in a house in the outskirts.
The area was deserted. It was peaceful, but after some time, anyone would lose their mind. People aren’t built to endure solitude.
Especially not someone like Rebecca, who was a reckless girl who used to run with gangs.
But Howard didn’t have any safer options.
Every few days, he’d make a discreet call to check on her, send her money, and have someone drop off necessities.
He had to keep everything quiet. If anyone caught wind, Rebecca’s location would be exposed.
But then…
A week ago, Rebecca suddenly left the house and wandered into the city!
She even partied for a bit!
If Howard hadn’t called and gotten no response, then checked the surveillance footage, he would’ve been clueless.
Now, Rebecca had been gone for a week.
Howard assumed she either bolted or the Bells captured her.
So on New Year’s Day, he had no choice but to come to Hetsa himself, retracing her movements.
And he still had to return to Jenson Villa before the family dinner.
But what he didn’t count on …
Tilda was also in Hetsa.
Big city, yet somehow they ran into each other.
Was it fate or just rotten timing?
And then…
Chapter 375 Kidnapped
Howard noticed Tilda walk in, holding hands with two men who radiated presence.
He felt a sharp sting of jealousy.
Of course, Tilda wasn’t ordinary; she was a world champion.
Now, more and more remarkable men surrounded her.
She clearly no longer needed anyone from Jenson Villa.
No.
It was only that they once thought they mattered so much to her.

They believed Tilda would never walk away from the comfort of Jenson Villa, never abandon her brothers.
But now?
All that arrogance was smashed in their faces.
They had it coming.
Tilda was ready to brush past Howard and leave.
“Congrats on becoming world champion, Tilda,” Howard said quickly, then rushed out of the café.
He knew she didn’t want to see him.
And he didn’t have the time to get involved with her either.
Might as well leave it as a thorn in his chest and move forward.
Howard’s odd behavior made Tilda raise a brow.

Ha.
Like a wolf wishing a lamb Happy New Year. Definitely suspicious.
“Forget him. Let’s get the coffee Dane suggested.”
Dane gave a small nod.
