Chapter 402 You Won’t Hurt Them, Right?

Everyone was all tired after playing by the beach for the entire afternoon. So after a simple dinner, they went to bed. Thomas, Colton, and Mackenzie were supposed to sleep in their respective rooms but Thomas insisted on sharing a room with Colton. While everyone was asleep, Colton heard some meows. After checking that Thomas was still deep in slumber, he tiptoed to the toilet, where he climbed through the window to the backyard. He scuttled along the edges of the garden path until he reached a small hole in the wall surrounding the villa. An adult would never fit in that hole, but it was not an issue for a kid like Thomas. Like a professional spy, Thomas burrowed into the hole and advanced toward the origin of the meowing. He saw the woman who talked to him the other day. She was leaning against the wall smoking. Her hands flapped about to swat the annoying mosquitoes away, careful not to make any noise to alert the patrols.

When she saw Thomas, she ranted, "What's wrong with your dad? It's just a villa. Not a castle. So why all these stupid high walls?"

"Don't badmouth my daddy!" Thomas glared.

Thomas's sudden outburst shook the woman. But she quickly recomposed herself, noting how ridiculous it was to be intimidated by a child. "Is everything ready for tomorrow? If the plan fails, your daddy might abandon you."

"Are you sure you won't hurt them?" probed Thomas apprehensively.

The woman squatted and tried to sound patient. "Don't worry. Haven't I shown you those two rich foster families?"

To earn Colton's trust, the woman continued and said that she was doing this because she felt bad for Thomas. And she claimed that those two rich families paid her to look for obedient kids. She spokeNôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

highly of them.

"Daddy scolded me again because of Mackenzie. He almost hit me, if only Mommy didn't come and stopped him. We made up later but Daddy didn't speak to me the whole night." Speaking of his terrible day, Colton's eyes turned teary.

The woman pulled Colton closer, even though deep down, she actually despised how spoiled Colton was. He was ready to send his own siblings away because he got told off. Like father, like son, the woman thought to herself. But at the same time, the woman was overjoyed. All these years of pampering Colton finally paid off because Colton was ready to tell her everything. And others were thinking that Colton was setting them up... Urgh, they should be here to see the current Colton. Just how complicated could a child who was jealous of his siblings be?

"See? I told you, didn't I? Your dad favors Thomas and Mackenzie. If you don't send them away now, you will be abandoned eventually," the woman said softly.

"I don't want to be abandoned," wailed Colton.

The woman summoned her guards to muffled Colton's cries. "There, there. After tomorrow, you'll be your parent's favorite child. I can't stay here for long. Tell me now. How should I contact you tomorrow?"

Knowing how cautious Noah was, there must be a lot of guards during their yacht trip tomorrow. Approaching them would not be an easy task.

"You can't show your face at all, or they won't allow you to come near the yacht. Just hide under the water. At around 10 am tomorrow, I will lure Thomas and Mackenzie to the stern. And then, I'll blow this whistle. The bell in your hand will ring. Then, you make an entrance and take them away. I'll keep the guards occupied."

Colton blew the whistle for a quick demonstration. The bell in the woman's hand rang immediately.

"How does this work?" The woman asked out of curiosity.

"There is an insect inside the bell. The frequency emitted by this whistle could only be picked up by it. When it reacts to the sound frequency, the bell will ring."

The woman felt a chill down her spine. There was nothing normal about the entire Quincy family. No wonder their kids were getting trafficked.

"I'll wait for the signal tomorrow then, Colton. This is your only chance. If this plan fails, you will be disowned. So you can't hesitate, all right?"

Colton nodded. "I know. Either I get rid of them, or they get rid of me."

"What's there?" The guard by the side suddenly exclaimed.

The woman ran away instantly. When Colton saw the woman dash into a black sedan across the street, he put on his glasses. With the click of a button, the darkness before him disappeared and he could view everything clearly, including the car plate number. After Colton took a photo of the car plate, he snuck back. But before he could slide back into his duvet, he felt a warm presence around him.

"Where did you go, Colt?" Thomas looked at Colton with his big, round eyes.

Colton did not dare to meet Thomas's gaze. "No, I didn't go anywhere."

"I saw it with my own eyes. You snuck out with that hole. If you won't tell me, I'll tell Daddy and Mommy!" Thomas walked to the door.

"Stop!" Colton immediately grabbed Thomas. "I'll tell you, all right?"

"Your secret is safe with me." Thomas sat across Colton attentively.

Even though it was still dark in the room, Colton still did not dare to look in Thomas's direction. "I went to see a woman. She used to look after me in Imperia. She came to ask for a loan."

"How much?" Thomas made a face that said don't-you-lie-to-me.

"Two million," sighed Colton.

"What? And you said yes?" Thomas jumped to his feet.

"Is it a lot? You just gave Jacob 300 million the other day."

"That's because we needed his service. You handed out such a huge loan to that woman that easily. She will definitely come back asking for more!"

"It's my money anyway. Just mind your own business." Colton was greatly irked by Thomas's comment. He hid under the sheet.
