Armand’s expression changed instantly. He asked in disbelief, “You... What did you say? Have you kidnapped Theresa?”
Declan looked confused. “Don’t you know it?”
Armand clenched his fists tightly. When he was about to punch him, Declan pushed him away. “You all are nuts!”
They all had a violent tendency.
He’d better run away from him as soon as possible.
“Stop!” Armand noticed that Declan was sneaking away. Immediately, he strode to catch up with him. Noticing that, Declan started running. It wasn’t because that he wouldn’t win against Armand in a fight, just that Armand looked quite abnormal. Declan believed that he would win against a normal man, but not a lunatic.
A lunatic wouldn’t treasure his life at all, but he treasured his own life.
“Declan Bailey!”
The faster Armand chased him, the faster Declan ran. He dodged and hid all the way to run out of the entrance of the hospital. After sitting in the car quickly, he shouted, “Go! Go! Go!”
The nightclub employee didn’t know why Declan looked so panicked. He obediently started the engine. When Armand caught up, the car hadn’t left yet. Declan locked all the car doors. Armand couldn’t open the door, so he started smashing the car window angrily. “Declan Bailey, get out!”
Armand was so furious, his chest heaving up and down fiercely. All blue veins on his neck popped out, looking so terrified.
Declan looked at the car window that was shaking and almost broken, swallowing hard. He understood why Armand had become Matthew’s friend -- they were both nuts, not normal humans.
“Shit! Hurry up!” Declan cursed.
The employee had already started the engine. Hearing Declan’s roar, he was shocked and suddenly stepped on the gas. The car roared away like an arrow. Under such a speed, Declan couldn’t help but fall back. Fortunately, the car seat was quite soft. He didn’t get hurt but looked miserable.
“Fuck! Can you drive or not?” Rubbing the back of his head, he sat up.
The driver wanted to explain, only to find that Declan was peering out of the back window.
He shut up and concentrated on driving.
Armand didn’t go back to find the doctor. Immediately, he got in his car, heading to find Matthew. He wanted to ask what exactly had happened. How could Declan kidnap Theresa?
He seemed to understand why Matthew was so eager to come back from White City. No wonder he always felt that Matthew had something hiding from him. Sure enough, his intuition was correct.
Armand drove pretty fast. Arriving at the villa, he had already hopped off right after the car was parked. He strode into the villa. However, the two kids and Dolores, who hadn’t slept well last night, were napping.
Dolores wasn’t sleeping early. She wanted to wait for Matthew to come back. Why lying on the bed, she fell asleep gradually.
Coral was hanging the children’s washed clothes on the balcony downstairs.
If he were not reminded by the remained reason, Armand would have rushed upstairs to find Dolores.
He suppressed and asked, “Coral, could you please ask Dolores to come downstairs? I have something urgent to ask her.”
Coral could tell that he was pretty anxious. She reminded him, “She’s napping. Why don’t you wait for a moment?”
She didn’t mean anything. Dolores’s baby had become bigger, so she could get sleepy easily. If Coral would go to wake her up, Dolores might not have had a good nap.
“I’m quite anxious!” Armand breathed heavily.
Coral put down the clothes and went upstairs.
Pushing the door open, she walked to the bed and called Dolores gently. The latter was sleeping soundly, so she didn’t wake up.
Coral called her a few times again. After she raised her tone, Dolores was woken up. She thought that Matthew had come back. Opening her eyes, she asked, “Has he come back? Who else came back with him?”
She wanted to know if Matthew had rescued Theresa.
Coral was confused. She answered, “Armand came here alone.”
“Armand?” Dolores frowned.
“Yes. He’s quite anxious. I told him that you are napping, but he asked me to wake you up,” answered Coral honestly.
Dolores rubbed her eyes and sat up. She sobered up. Armand was so anxious, so she guessed that probably he had known what happened to Theresa.
She got off the bed and put on slippers. She asked Coral where the children were, and the latter told her that they were napping. Dolores nodded and walked downstairs.
Armand was walking back and forth in the living room uneasily. Seeing that Dolores came downstairs, he immediately walked to her. “Dolores...”
