Chapter 1816
Holdent tried to turn around to see where else she could’ve gone. He was completely stunned at that moment. The cotton candies he held in his hand fell on the floor.
“Sir, sir? You still haven’t paid,” shouted the lady. 2
“Get lost!” Holden raised his foot and kicked the lady violently. She vomited blood as she landed on the ground, she was shocked as she looked at the decently dressed man in front of her, who had a handsome appearance and seemed wise and virtuous. She could not believe that he was actually a devil.
The lady suddenly was reminded of a crime movie that she saw a very long time ago. There was a line in the movie. “Can you guarantee that his melon is ripe? ” It was just one line. The customer who wanted to buy the melon in the movie asked the seller who sold the melons if he could guarantee that the melon was ripened and weighed enough. The melon seller then arrogantly pulled some tricks and fooled that customer. In the end, the customer killed the melon seller. In that scene, the melon seller was more or less a little unethical. However, the lady was just a person who sold cotton candies and she did not trick anyone. She was just an honest person doing a small business. Why would she still suffer such a misfortune for no reason?
The lady felt aggrieved and scared. Just when she was thinking of a way to call the police, she saw that the young man who bought the cotton candies was panicking so much that his tone was also changed. “ Aino, Aino, baby, where did you go? Don’t give me a scare. Quickly come out! You don’t want to go with me, right? Then just tell me honestly! I’d rather not take you away than put you in danger. Aino...” Speaking of that, the man unexpectedly choked up.
The lady was speechless. She had accepted that she was just unlucky. He was a man who had lost a child. Who would not have a little temper? The man walked further and further away. The more he shouted, the more anxious he got. However, where was the child? Nobody saw where the child had slipped into within those few minutes.
At that very moment, Aino was hiding behind a row of cages for doves. That row of cages was truly very smelly, but she could endure it. she tried her best to bite her lips and stop herself from crying. She knew that she would be found by Holden if she had a tiny movement. If she was found by Holden, then she would no longer be able to see her parents anymore. Aino did not want to be separated from her parents. She did not want that! Huge drops of tears streamed down Aino’s face. Aino and those doves, which symbolized peace, looked at each other, but the doves did not understand the situation the six-year-old girl was in. The six-year-old child had boundless helplessness and horror flickering in her big round eyes.
