The Billionaire's Kick Ass Wife (Isabella Thompson) novel Chapter 36

Chapter 36 Easier To Invite Devil

Alan rushed to the kindergarten. When he arrived at the kindergarten, he came across Martin, who happened to be there.

It was Martin, indeed.

Martin had nothing to do on that day. He and Alan had planned this to test Isabella out.

So, Martin went to pick Ricky up. Meanwhile, Alan drove Isabella in the name of picking Ricky up and lured her to jump into the alley.

They also hired some thugs to go after Isabella and force her to expose some of her true self.

As a result, the plan failed because of unforeseen circumstances. Some of the men from Skydragon kidnaped Isabella.

Alan did not know about that yet.

He arrived at the kindergarten and saw Martin picking up Ricky instead of Isabella.

When Martin saw Alan, he was surprised and whispered, “So soon? Did you get to know anything about her?”

Alan’s expression changed slightly as he said, “I lost her. She… Didn’t she come here?”

Martin’s brows furrowed, and he looked around in shock. “Lost her? I haven’t seen her around here.”

That caught Alan off guard.

Ricky suddenly asked, “Mr. Martin, Mr. Alan, did mommy come along? I want to sit in the same car as mommy.”

As he spoke, he wanted to get off the car and head to Alan’s car.

Alan was nervous, and cold sweat drenched his forehead.

Martin was also anxious.

Alan wiped off the sweat on his forehead and said to Martin, “Send Ricky back home. I’ll go and look for her.”

Then, he looked at Ricky and said uncomfortably, “Ricky, your mom did not come because she had something to do. Go back home with Mr. Martin first. I have something to settle and will be back later.”

When Ricky heard that his mother was not there, he looked at their pale faces. He was confused.

He silently glanced at both of them before getting into the car obediently.

Martin took Ricky back home, while Alan sped to the alley where he dropped Isabella.

On the way, he called home, and Cooper told him that Isabella had not returned.

Alan knew Isabella would be in trouble if he did not find her before the sky turned dark. He could not imagine the consequences of the situation by then.

Not to mention how Ricky would react if he found out that they lost his mom. He and Martin did not know how to explain it to Draxton either…

Alan was overwhelmed by his regret. He was in despair. All he wanted was to test out Isabella, and he had never intended to put her in danger.

Isabella was, after all, Draxton’s woman and Ricky’s birth mother…

Alan searched the alley and saw no sign of Isabella.

As the sky grew darker, Alan was contemplating if he should call more people to search for her.

However, by then, he could no longer hide this matter from Draxton.

Alan’s face turned paler.

Meanwhile, Martin was also in a difficult situation.

When they were back home, Ricky thought he could see his mom, but he looked around and did not find her anywhere.

“Mr. Cooper, have you seen mommy?” Ricky asked Cooper.

Cooper was puzzled and asked, “Didn’t Miss Thompson come and pick you up with Mr. Martin?”

Ricky was startled, and he stared at Martin, confused.

Martin did not dare to have eye contact with Ricky.

So, he did not notice the glow and hope in Ricky’s eyes fade.

Cooper’s expression turned gloomy as he glared at Martin sharply. His look was quite different from his usual gentle gaze.

“Martin, Alan and you are Mr. Lockwood’s most trusted subordinates. I hope that you will never do something silly and unnecessary.”

Cooper realized what had happened instantly.

He could see Martin and Alan having a doubt about Isabella recently.

They were not just doubting her. They had even made things difficult for Isabella occasionally.

However, he did not expect they would harm Isabella.

Cooper said thoughtfully, “We must tell the chieftain about this.”

Martin’s face turned pale. After glancing at Cooper, he walked out of the room.

After a while, Martin gathered the guards of the Lockwood family and headed to the alley where Alan was.

Only Cooper and Ricky were in the living room. Worried, Ricky asked, “Mr. Cooper, did something happen to mommy?”

Cooper wanted to say something to Ricky, but he couldn’t when he saw Ricky’s naïve and big round eyes looking at him.

Ricky did not give up and continued, “Did Mr. Martin and Mr. Alan hurt mommy?”

Cooper looked at Ricky and sighed. Then, he squatted as he looked into Ricky’s eyes.

He said, “Mr. Martin and Mr. Alan are just playing a game with your mommy. They will be back after finding her.”

Tears shimmered in Ricky’s eyes. He wiped off the tears and ran out of the living room.

“They don’t like mommy. They all want to hurt mommy. They’re bad people. Bad people!”

He ran so fast that Cooper was too old to catch up.

Ricky ran to the garden and looked at the place where he had stayed for a few days. It still looked unfamiliar. Suddenly, he missed Lotus Village very much.

When Draxton returned, he saw Ricky standing alone in the garden with tears flowing down his cheeks as he stared at the swing in a daze.

He looked lonely and helpless.

Draxton felt sorry to see his son in such a state. So, he strode toward Ricky.

At the same time, Cooper rushed out of the house.

He looked anxious and was drenched in a cold sweat. When he saw Draxton, he froze.

Draxton glanced at Cooper. Then, he approached Ricky. He wanted to carry him as he asked, “What happened, Ricky?”

Ricky did not answer him and even avoided Draxton’s touch. He glared at Draxton warily.

That look broke Draxton’s heart. He was disappointed, but he asked gently, “What happened, Ricky?”

Ricky pouted his lips as he glanced at him coldly. “I want mommy. Return mommy to me.”

Those words shocked Draxton.

It reminded him of Martin suddenly taking the guards on a mission.

“Did something happen to Isabella?” thought Draxton.

He glared at Cooper, demanding an answer.

Cooper glanced at Ricky and sighed as he explained to Draxton.

“Today, Martin and Miss Thompson were supposed to go and pick Ricky up together.

“However, I don’t know why Martin went to pick Ricky up, and Alan seemed to have lost Miss Thompson…”

“Lost her?” Draxton’s voice sounded cold.

Cooper continued, “Before this, Alan called and asked if Miss Thompson was back.

“I don’t know what happened exactly ”

Ricky said, “Mr Martin and Mr. Alan went to the kindergarten, but mommy didn’t go

“Mr Alan thought mommy went to the kindergarten, but Mr. Martin and I did not see mommy. Mr. Alan said. he lost mommy”

Ricky explained slowly and clearly. But his large eyes revealed his wariness and sadness.
