Soon, they arrived at the Smith family mansion in their Jeep.
Everyone there was still awake.
There was no way they could fall asleep after knowing that Samuel Smith had been kidnapped.
However, they didn't dare to call the police in case the kidnappers killed him.
They were left with no choice but to stay up and fret about it.
"Uncle is back!"
Paul Smith's son Peter Smith came running back from the outside, hollering happily.
Sean Smith's face lit up at the sound of that. The whole family got up to meet Samuel Smith at the door.
Samuel Smith was standing just outside the living room with Nathan Cross and Penny Smith, looking worse for wear.
Sean Smith was overjoyed to see Samuel Smith return safely. "Oh, my dear son, welcome back. You have scared me out of my wits!”
Samuel Smith was relieved as well. "Man, I almost died today!"
Suddenly, Penny Smith called out from behind them. "Grandpa!"
Sean Smith's gaze immediately turned cold. "You bastards! How dare you kidnap your uncle?”
"If I didn't threaten you, what would you have done?"
"And you dare to come and meet me? Someone chase them out now!"
Seeing this, Samuel Smith decided to put his ego aside and intervene. "Dad, this has nothing to do with Nathan and Penny."
Sean Smith furrowed his brows. "Really?"
"That's right. Nathan commanded a group of soldiers to take down the kidnappers.
He saved me."
