Samuels cheek was swelling up because of the slap, making a sharp contrast with the other cheek.
He couldn’t think too much about it. He just wanted his grandmother to escape with his sister.
It was better for only him to be held captive by Sampson rather than the whole family being held captive.
By this moment, Jessica had already run quite far.
Maria called again to urge him to hurry up, “What is the matter with you? It has been so long. And what happened just now?”
Sampson couldn’t explain clearly on the phone, he quickly said something along the lines of ‘I will be there immediately’ and hung up.
He didn’t plan to chase after Jessica, he could also blackmail Dolores with just one of them.
He was afraid that Samuel might have some other trick up his sleeve. He grabbed Samuel’s head and slammed it into the car door. Samuel felt a lot of pain.
Warm liquid flowed down from his forehead.
His eyes went dark and his consciousness gradually faded as he fainted.
Sampson threw him in the back seat, got into the driving seat and started the car.
Not long after he left, another car drove over. Abbott had just sent him the location after investigation. There was a village near Dingqiao Bridge and he had locked his target on that village.
Apart from that, there was no place to hide.
Abbott followed behind with others.
“Don’t worry too much. Your son is very smart, nothing will happen.”
When Abbott called, Dolores had turned on the speaker and found out that Sampson was going to kidnap Jessica and the kids.
Ever since then she had been very anxious and had said nothing to William.
“Smart?” Her eyes were red, “He is just a five-year-old kid, how can he deal with an adult?”
She knew that she was taking her anger out on William but she couldn’t help it.
What if something happened to Samuel?
“It is all my fault. I shouldn’t have been away from home. I left them at home without any concern that is why this happened.” She blamed herself.
She never thought that Sampson could suddenly become like this.
She had known him for ten years.
How could he kidnap her child?
Can someone’s heart be so fickle?
Her heart hurt so much it felt like someone was tearing it apart with a saw.
Knowing that she was worried, William reached out to squeeze her hand, clasping her hand tightly in his palm.
He didn’t say anything to comfort her. She didn’t look like in a state to be comforted with words.
Jessica didn’t keep on running, she held Simona tightly and hid herself.
Seeing a car coming by, she ran out on to the road to stop it.
Abbott was driving the car when he saw someone form a distance. when he got closer, he could see who was standing by the road side. He speeded up to reach Jessica, stopping beside her.
“Please help me! I encountered a bad guy, can you…” Jessica started to ask for help without even looking at him. When she looked at him, she stopped mid-sentence.
Although, she had only seen him a few times, Jessica knew that Abbott was William’s assistant.
Abbott got out and opened the back-seat door, “Get in, quickly!”
“Thank you.” Jessica got into the car with Simona in her arms.
Simona had been very obedient. Jessica had told her that they were being chased by a bad guy and that she must stay quiet.
So, when they hid, she kept her mouth tightly closed and didn’t say anything, like a very clever child.
“Samuel was taken away. Can you call the police for me?” Now sure that she and Simona were safe, Jessica asked Abbott.
“Don’t worry, I already brought people.”
Abbott motioned her to look back. She had been too nervous and hadn’t looked behind Abbott’s car. At this moment, there were several cars including police cars parked behind them.
Jessica had been too anxious and had asked Abbott to save Samuel before she could think about how Abbott knew that they were in danger.
