The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 309

The little boy's faith crumbled, a look of heartbreak on his face, "Dad, how could you do something bad? Haven't you always taught me to be a good person? How could you do this? You're not my dad, I don't want a bad dad like you..."

"Don't you dare talk to your father like that!"

Behind the little boy, a plainly dressed woman walked in, scolding the child before looking at her husband with a pained expression,

"Zachary, why don't you tell the truth soon? Do you really want our child to live under the shadow of his father being a bad guy?"

Seeing his wife and son safe and sound, Zachary breathed a sigh of relief, feeling too ashamed to face his family, he hung his head, "I'm glad you guys are okay. As long as you're safe, nothing else matters..."

"Yes, we're safe now, we've been rescued!" With teary eyes, the woman leaned into her husband's shoulder, "But Zach, why are you so foolish? You got laid off from the company and didn't tell me, working odd jobs all this time on your own, and even got used to do those nasty things! You need to tell the truth to the police, we can still hope for leniency!"

"I was wrong, as long as you and the kid are okay, I've got nothing to worry about!"

Hearing his wife not blaming him, Zachary was moved to tears. He wiped his tears and raised his head to the police, "Officers, I want to tell the truth! The reason I pleaded guilty before was because my wife and son were kidnapped and someone threatened me to say so!"

The cops were taken aback!

"What? Who kidnapped your wife and child?"
