The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike novel Chapter 884

Chapter 884 

Shortly after that, he heard a series of footsteps going down the stairs. Then, Wayne noticed the people surrounding him dispersing. All the doors in the neighborhood hallway were tightly shut, and there was not a single neighbor in sight. 

“You… Who the hell are you?” Wayne asked in a trembling voice. 

Jonathan cast a condescending gaze at Wayne and uttered in a chilly tone, “I’m Jonathan Youngblood, 

Zeki’s father!” 

Instantly, Wayne and Jeanette’s faces were filled with shock. 

The ordinary apartment building was tightly surrounded by a group of men in black suits. At the building’s base, numerous onlookers gathered, speculating about what was happening. 

However, the fifth floor, where the Burton family resided, remained tranquil. Almost every level of the building had bodyguards stationed, yet not a sound was made. To an uninformed observer, it would seem as though something significant and momentous had occurred. 

Presently, in the Burton family’s living room, Jeanette endured the intense pain in both her hands without daring to make a sound. She was afraid of irritating the man on the couch. 

Who could have anticipated that the child her family adopted was Jonathan Youngblood’s biological son? “Oh my goodness! Jonathan can be said to own half of Strico. If I had known that Zekiah was Jonathan’s son, I would have treated him better!” Jeanette thought. 

Nevertheless, at that moment, no amount of regret from Jeanette could change the situation. 

Jeanette had certainly not expected that the woman who had caught her mistreating Zekiah at home and scolded her would turn out to be Jonathan’s wife, the lady of the Youngblood family, and Zekiah’s biological mother! 

Karina was still staring at Rosalie in a daze right now, trying to process the realization that the woman before them was Zekiah’s biological mother. 

Karina had always assumed that Zekiah was an orphan without parents and would stay with her and the Burton family for the rest of his life. 

However, right now, Zekiah’s parents were here. “They… Will they take Zekiah away?” Karina wondered. She couldn’t help but panic as she recalled that Rosalie had mentioned her desire to adopt Zekiah prior to this. 

“Karina, please tell us everything you saw today when Zeki was dragged into the car without leaving out any details!” Rosalie’s voice brought Karina back to her senses. 

Karina quickly shook her head. What was she thinking? Right now, the most important thing was to save 

Zekiah. 

“Zeki’s daddy seems to be very powerful. He must be able to save him, right?” she thought. 

As such, Karina quickly recounted what she had observed in great detail, as some individuals on the side methodically documented the key points of her account. They posed crucial questions, including the precise location, the car’s departure direction, the license plate number, and the car’s color. Another person opened a laptop, accessed a map, and initiated a preliminary search on it. “Mr. Youngblood, there are no surveillance cameras in the area where Mr. Burton was abducted,” they reported 

Jonathan narrowed his eyes and ordered, “Continue to investigate!” 

Karina timidly inquired, “Will the kidnappers demand a large sum of money? I’ve seen on TV that kidnappers always demand ransom if they take children away. I-If you don’t have enough money, I can give you all I have. I even have the money my mother gave me. I can discuss it with the lawyer, and he can definitely give it to me in advance so that we can save Zekiah.” 

Jeanette endured the pain and said, “They… They have so much money that your paltry sum won’t interest them! Do you know who they are? Zeki should be immensely grateful to have parents like them!” Karina disregarded Jeanette’s comment and maintained her serious gaze on Rosalie. She did not know

who Jonathan was, nor did she know of the Youngblood family’s status in Strico. The only thing she was certain of was that they were individuals who were truly willing to rescue Zekiah. 

Rosalie felt like crying again. She abruptly embraced Karina and said, “Jonathan and I will handle the money. Don’t worry about it, Karina.” 

“I’m sorry! I-It’s my f-fault for not watching over Zeki!” Karina sobbed. She had bared her fangs and claws at her stepmother previously. It was only now that she could finally let go of her fear and sorrow. Her defined frame trembled slightly in Rosalie’s embrace. 

“No, I’m the one who should apologize. It’s my fault for not recognizing Zeki from the start,” Rosalie said. It was evident that Zekiah’s kidnapping was no accident, given that the kidnapper was aware that Zekiah was Jonathan and Rosalie’s biological son. 

Furthermore, the kidnappers did not demand a ransom from the Burton family, but the Youngblood family! 

Zekiah was worth being kidnapped because he was a descendant of the Youngblood family. 

“So who is it? Who would have known earlier than us that Zekiah is our biological son?” thought Rosalie. She suddenly remembered Kurt, who was in prison at the moment. 

“That year, only Kurt was aware of Zeki’s location. Did Kurt disclose it to the kidnappers? As for the kidnapper… Could the kidnapper be someone acquainted with Kurt?” wondered Rosalie again. 

Many of these questions flashed through Rosalie’s mind.
