Written Off as Trash, I Activated My Hidden Queen Mode novel Chapter 289

The Heiress With Seven Secret Identities

Chapter 289 I Shouldn’t Have Doubted You

“Elias, could it be a kidnapping?”

Elias frowned slightly. Few people besides the principal knew their real identities.

A few kids had seen him drop off the children before, but none would hurt them.

“Probably not. If it were kidnapping, the kidnappers would have called for ransom already.”

Stella was frantic. “Gideon, drive faster.”

“Yes, ma’am.”

The black Maybach sped down the road and soon reached Sunny Side Preschool.

Liam hid behind a nearby tree. When he saw the family car and Stella rushing inside, he panicked.

Mom must be so worried!

When he spotted Elias, he pouted angrily. Bad daddy.

“Mommy!” Chloe burst into tears the moment she saw Stella.

“Liam… Liam’s gone.”

Stella held her daughter tightly, her worry growing deeper.

Jason and Miles hung their heads and stepped back nervously.

How could their boss go missing? He was too smart for that.

“Mommy, everyone says Daddy doesn’t want us anymore.”

Elias‘ heart ached at his little girl’s tears.

“How could Daddy ever leave you, Chloe?”

“You have a girlfriend. You’re gonna get me a stepmom. You’re a bad daddy.”

Elias fell silent, his eyebrows tight.

“Mr. Cross, we have the security footage.”

Elias had no time to comfort his daughter. He checked the video and frowned.

Liam had left the preschool on his own.

Why would he run away?

Stella was confused too. Her son looked angry, like he was going to fight someone.

“Jason, Miles, do you know where Liam went?”

The two boys exchanged looks. They had promised not to tell on their boss.

“Won’t you tell Auntie?”

“We promised we wouldn’t, Auntie.”

Jason covered his mouth. Miles did the same and shook his head.

“Boys, Liam is little. If he runs into a stranger, he could get hurt.”

Jason and Miles grew scared.

“He went to confront Uncle Elias.”

Jason glared at Elias, scared but angry.

“Uncle Elias hurt Auntie. That’s why Boss left to fix it. He didn’t skip class on purpose.”

Miles also glared at Elias as if he were a cheater.

Elias‘ eyes narrowed. Could Liam be the one who hacked Cross Group?

Impossible.

“Mr. Cross, Mr. Liam Cross is back.”

Elias was furious. He strode forward quickly.

He had raised Liam since he was born.

He took him to work, to meetings, fed him milk every night.

And the boy didn’t trust him at all.

Elias‘ presence was overwhelming. Liam flinched and stepped back.

His eyes glistened with tears as he looked up helplessly.

“Daddy.”

Elias closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and crouched down.

He placed a hand on Liam’s shoulder, trying to stay calm.

“Are you hurt?”

“No.”

Even though his voice was gentle, Liam felt heavy pressure.

“Liam.”

“Mommy!”

Liam threw himself into her arms, scared he had caused trouble.

“Mommy, I’m sorry I made you worry.”
