Seeing the woman running back with the hacker with the child in her arms, Zac's tense nerves finally relaxed. He rushed over like a tornado and held her in his arms. But two seconds later, he loosened his grip like a needle. A violent fear ran over his handsome face. "May, why are you here? Where is my wife?"
"Mrs. Essie... She sprained her ankle and couldn't run. She asked me take the baby back first," May explained gingerly.
"Damn it!" Zac punched the tree trunk hard. The branches trembled violently, and the leaves scattered like rain. At this moment, all his muscles and nerves were tensed to the extreme, as if they would break at any time. Agreeing to let his little fool take the risk was the stupidest and most asshole decision he had ever made.
"Boss, calm down!" Jay reminded him in a hurry, fearing that he would lose control.
Zac took a dozen deep breaths in a row, trying to calm down his violent heartbeat, tension and anxiety. Calm down, he must calm down. His little fool who had dropped away was still waiting for him to save. He couldn't panic.
He took the baby from May's hand. Maybe he was shocked, the baby took two sips from the pacifier in his mouth and opened his eyes.
"Son, do you remember daddy?"
The baby's big black bead turned to the direction of the sound. After a few babbling, it opened its mouth and smiled, as if responding to Zac.
"You deserve to be my sweetheart." Zac felt a little comforted. He bowed his head and kissed the baby's pink face lovingly. He needed some calming factors, and this little baby was the most effective tranquilizer.
In the villa, Essie was ordering the bodyguards on duty at night. "Hold the ice cubes and press them for me. Don't move."
"Mrs. Essie, Neil is here to keep an eye on you. We are going on patrol," the tall bodyguard said and called the two beside him. When he turned around and was about to leave, he was stopped by Essie. "One of you go to make a pot of juice, and the other go to get fruits and desserts. Let's eat together. After that, you can go on patrol."
"Madame, our duty is to protect you. It's not a big deal to make juice. You can ask the nanny for help," the tall bodyguard said.
Essie's eyes become cold. "I'm very safe. What do I want you to protect! Do you still think that Zac will come to me? I didn't know he was lying in which little bitch's gentle arms. He has been tired of me for a long time. He wants me to disappear and never go back for the rest of my life, so that he can bring the tramp into the house openly. "
A bodyguard patted the tall bodyguard on the shoulder and said, "Mrs. Essie wants us to do it. Let's do it. It's late at night. What can happen?"
The tall bodyguard curled his lips and didn't say anything. He turned around and went into the kitchen with him.
Soon, they came out with juice, fruits and desserts.
"Come on, let's eat together. It's a long night. We can't work until we are full." Essie waved her hand.
The bodyguards sat down with her. While eating, Essie told jokes to them, as if she was getting along very well with them.
Looking at her watch, Essie thought that it had been half an hour, May should have taken her baby back safely. Then she stood up and said, "Well, you can go on patrol. I should go back to sleep now." Then she limped upstairs.
She walked to the door and was about to enter when she saw Walt come out of the room. "I thought you were asleep." He came out when he heard the noise downstairs.
Worried that he would find out that the baby was gone, Essie quickly closed the door and said, "I can't fall asleep. My feet hurt. I went down to apply some ice on them."
"How's the baby's sleep?" Walt asked.
"He is sleeping very sound. Don't wake him up." As Essie spoke, she reached out and held his arm. "I can't fall asleep. Can I stay in your room for a while?"
Seeing her offer, Walt was ecstatic. He nodded and helped her into his room.
Sitting on the sofa, Essie tightened the straps of her windbreaker.
She was so nervous that her heart beat fast. She put her hand in her pocket. There was a lipstick gun that Holy gave her. Her and Zac's original plan was to give the gun to May and let her attack Walt. After anesthetizing him, they would take off his fake mask.
Now this glorious task was handed over to her.
The anesthetic in the lipstick gun could only work when it touched the skin. It was useless to spray it on the clothes. Her shooting skill was so bad, and her hit rate was zero percent. She was really worried that if she couldn't shoot Walt, she would die.
God bless her! God bless her! She kept praying in her heart.
Walt poured her a glass of water, squatted down and looked at her feet. "I'll take you to see a doctor tomorrow."
"Okay." She nodded and smiled at him to ease her nervousness. At the same time, she seduced him and didn't let him be on guard.
Walt sat beside her. He liked to see her smile, which was the most beautiful scenery in his eyes.
"Steven, will we stay here for a long time?" she asked deliberately.
"Don't you like here?" Walt raised his thick eyebrows.
