Chapter 435
Chapter 435
After hanging up, Harry called Joey, "My son is in trouble. You look into what is happening now."
"What about the old house?" Joey was already feeling so much pressure. Today was really a rough day----two big things happened at the same time.
"I will arrive at the old house soon. You just focus on searching for the baby." Search for the baby? Joey understood how serious the thing was. He jumped into the car and rushed to the manor.
Harry told the driver to speed up some more. Several minutes later, the car arrived at the door of the old house.
There were police cars all over the place. Kevin was negotiating with the chief police officer.
At the sight of Harry, they gathered towards him. "Father, how are things going now?" Harry asked his father. Kevin was sweating profusely.
Kevin answered worriedly, "Molly was crazy. She put a knife on your grandfather's neck. The nurses looking after grandfather were injured. Now she abducted your grandfather in the room."
Then another car pulled over, from which a woman was pushed out. Her hair was in a mess, her clothes in rags.
Instantly, she captured a lot of attention. Yolanda collapsed on the ground, her face becoming so pale.
Her body was covered with lots of bruises and wounds. Then the two guards brought her in front of Harry.
"Bring her in. Put her into the pavilion." From grandfather's window, Molly could see the pavilion clearly.
Yolanda was brought there, her daughter who she missed so much. Everyone rushed to the yard where the pavilion was.
A large number of police were positioned around the corners while some were trying to negotiate with Molly through the window on the second floor.
Molly instantly saw her daughter's pitiful look and knew that she was tormented and even tortured. Tears streamed down her face. Ah, her miserable daughter. She should have taken care of her even more...
"Molly, do you know what Yolanda has done? Do you know what a person she has become?" Harry's grandfather asked calmly while sitting on his wheelchair.
Molly shook her head and shouted, "I don't care what she has done. She is my daughter. No matter what she did, she will always be my daughter. My baby." Yolanda was the daughter she has always been so proud of.
All of their agony was because of Harry. It was his video that insulted and abused them in front of the public. They had been the villains in the eyes of the people. They were cursed and condemned by the world!
Seeing her stubborn stand about her daughter, Harry's grandfather stopped wasting his words on her. It's okay if she injured him because he was too old to be afraid of death. But he hoped others would be
sound and safe. He was worried about Harry and Lola's safety.
Harry didn't also have much time to waste here. He had no idea how were things going in the manor, so he had to rush here as soon as possible. He uttered impatiently, "Tell her that her daughter has been brought here. If she dare lay a finger on my grandfather, I will kill both her and her daughter."
Then a police officer reconciled through a megaphone, "Molly, here is your daughter. Now you should release Mr. Lewis."
At that very moment, Yolanda realized what really happened and why she was brought here. She looked at Molly bitterly and shook her head. If she was to go down, she would drag more people with her.
Molly stared at her daughter. She was already in tears. She grabbed the knife and wheeled Mr. Lewis out of the room.
In the parlor stood lots of police officers. Harry and Kevin also came in.
Then Yolanda was brought in and was placed on the center.
"Yolanda, my daughter." Molly cried and howled sorrowfully. "Let go of my daughter. Only then will I release your grandfather.", said Molly to Harry.
Now, she was the one dictating the terms? She did not have that privilege!
With Harry's signal, a lurking police shot Molly dead.
The knife in her hand fell on the ground, then down the stairs.
"Mother!" Yolanda screamed and nearly fainted.
She struggled hysterically but was controlled right away. Then the chief police and his people brought Yolanda into the police car.
The medical staff also came over and dealt with Molly's body. After exchanging some words with the chief police, Harry followed Kevin to the second floor.
"Grandfather, are you okay?" Harry looked at his grandfather worriedly. But his grandfather was really very calm.
He shook his head, smiled and answered, "I'm all right. There is just a small cut on my neck." He raised his head and showed them the cut.
After grandfather's wound was taken care of, Harry said sadly, "Father, you will deal with the things and issues here. Daniel... Daniel has been taken away. I need to rush back to the manor." Considering the severity of that matter, Harry told them about Daniel's disappearance.
Harry's grandfather was very quiet before, but now he sprang up from the chair and asked, "What happened?"
"Harry, why would Daniel be taken away? Who would do that?!" He remembered that the wall of the manor has been installed with advanced security system. How could someone steal Daniel away from that place?
Harry reassured them, then told them to hide this from Lola for now. He would deal with this right away.
Harry's grandfather and Kevin was both very concerned. Harry then rushed to the manor.
When Lola arrived at the door of the manor, she saw two guards peeking inside as if something had happened.
"What's wrong?" She followed their eyes and found that the steel wire seemed to have been cut open. Something bad happened here...
The two guards were taken aback by her voice. Tom stuttered, "It's all fine. Mrs. Lewis. It's all fine."
Lola curiously looked at the guards who fled to the security room. Then she looked at the wire net. But she didn't think much of it and just walked inside.
Inside the mansion
Mrs. Herbert looked at the baby girl in the cradle affectionately. Other maids were also trembling with terror.
When they saw Lola, Mrs. Herbert hurriedly regained her composure. "You go to work now. Don't gather here." She ordered the other maids. The more people here, the easier to let the cat out of the bag. They have to be careful as Mrs. Lewis was smart.
Lola saw the cradle and walked over joyfully. But where was the other baby? There was only one of the twins.
"Mrs. Herbert, where is Daniel?" She asked curiously. Was Daniel sleeping upstairs?
Lola then held Sally up in her arms. Mrs. Herbert took a deep breath, suppressed her turmoil of feelings inside and answered as Harry has ordered, "Daniel has been taken to the old house."
To the old house? Lola was confused. She asked, "Why would he suddenly go to the old house?"
Mrs. Herbert stuttered, "Maybe... Maybe Boss Lewis wants to... Let Daniel spend more time with... with his great-grandfather." She didn't know how to make it through. She had to make up a valid reason and flee from Lola's sight.
Mrs. Herbert's words made Lola even more puzzled. She didn't know why Harry didn't tell her about any of that. Besides, Mrs. Herbert seemed very worried and upset. She seemed to be hiding something. Then Lola decided to call Harry and ask him.
She took Sally to the second floor and put her on the bed. She dialed Harry's number.
Harry just put several calls through. The his phone rang again. Seeing the caller ID, he almost dropped the phone in panic. It was Lola.
But he had to hide the fact from her as long as possible. He didn't want to make Lola worried and scared. "Honey."
His voice seemed normal. Lola moved Sally's diaper to the right place. "Daniel has been sent to the old house? Why didn't you tell me?" She asked.
"Yes." He answered in a simple manner.. But Lola felt something different in his tone. NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
"Why did you suddenly send him there?", she added. The twins usually stayed together. Something was going on here.
