Chapter 292
Maeve's heart skipped a beat. "What do you mean?"
"Ms. Booth, please come in with us, the police got out of the carand said to Karen.
Karen stood up and walked past Maeve with a sneer. "At this time, the news should be reporting about your son's death. How pitiful. Because of Byron, your son is gone." Maeve clenched her fists.
She kept telling herself that nothing would happen to Will. Trembling, she took out her phone and saw a real-time news message pop up. [There was a malignant accident on the Cold Water Highway where a truck crashed into a van. All the people in the van were seriously injured. A child about four or five years old died on the spot-
There was a loud bang in Maeve's head. Her ears were buzzing non-stop, and the smell of burning rust even surged up from her throat
She thought, 'Impossible. It can't be Will!"
In living room the Mcdaniel family, the police and Karen walked in.
Byron, Jason Mcdaniel, and Alexis Mcdaniel who had been notified in advance were present
Karen immediately saw the peerless Byron sitting on a long sofa trace of infatuation and resentment flashed across her eyes.
She thought, If he had been willing to marry me back then, we would not have ended up like this."
Karen's eyes flickered as she quietly adjusted the heart-shaped brooch on her clothes. It was actually a hidden camera.
It was
connected to the computer of Neville's subordinate to ensure that every scene would be seen by the tens of millions of netizens in a live stream.
After the police explained the purpose of their visit, they asked directly, "We've investigated and found that your son was picked up from kindergarten by his grandfather today and has returned since. Mr. Mcdaniel denied this, and the few of you didn't seem to have called the police after the incident. Is it like what Ms. Karen reported that you have maliciously abandoned him?"
It had been more than 20 years since the Mcdaniel family abandoned their son. There was no way to verify it.
Therefore, the only thing the police had to investigate was the disappearance of Will.
If it was confirmed that Will was indeed missing, even if Karen could not produce evidence that Jason and Alexis had abandoned Byron, it could still push the Mcdaniel family's evil deeds to the forefront.
"No." Jason frowned. "The kidnapping has to be reported after the child has gone missing for 24 hours. We've already sent people to search for him."
Byron's thin lips twitched slightly, and his expression was cold.
"This is wrong, Mr. Mcdaniel, the police officer corrected. "You can call the police immediately if a minor is missing." "Is that so?" Mr. Mcdaniel's expression was calm. "Even so, what does it have to do with abandonment?"
Karen smiled. "Jason, you don't seem nervous at all. It's as if you are not worried that something will happen to your only grandson. Could it be that because your grandson is autistic, you think he has embarrassed the Mcdaniel family, so."
Alexis looked at Karen with 4 strange gaze. She thought, 'How did the gentle and demure girl in the past become so detestable?"
At this moment, a police officer walked over. "Boss, we just received news that there was a car accident on the Cold Water Highway. There was a child in the van that was hit. He's suspected to be Will Mcdaniel."
The police officer handed the phone to Byron and asked him to check if it was true.
"Will!" Seeing the photos taken by the police, Alexis covered her mouth and her eyes instantly turned red.
Byron's face was as dark as water. A few seconds later, his brows slowly relaxed. "This is not my son."
"Of course, Mr. Mcdaniel won't admit it. Seeing that the time was right, Karen took out a stack of documents from her pocket. "Officer, this is the financial transaction between Mr. Mcdaniel's secretary and those kidnappers. You can investigate as much as you want. Will is harihed by his family. I wonder what role Mr. Mcdaniel plays in this."
Byron looked up and his cold gaze shot straight at Karen's face. A chill ran down Karen's spine.
The police took the information and immediately sent someone to investigate.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
The live-stream was also in an uproar because of this.
A member of the audience commented: [This is fucked up! Byron even abandoned his own child. How cold-blooded and vicious must he be to do such a thing?]
Another person commented: [I'm suddenly very disappointed in Mcdaniel Group. If they don't even have a basic standard for morals, how can we consumers dare to buy their products without worry!]
Someone else said: [That child is really unlucky to be born into the Mcdaniel family! What a beast. They must be severely punished]
A person asked: [Am 1 the only one who suspects that the car accident has something to do with the Mcdaniel family? How could it be so coincidental? After being kidnapped, the car accident happened. It must have been done by the Mcdaniel family to eliminate the evidence!]
Another person said: (I didn't expect a hundred-year-old wealthy family like the Mcdaniel family to be so messed up. I only represent myself, but I firmly despise family.l
A netizen commented: [The child is so pitiful. If he had a chance, he surely wouldn't be born into such a family.]
Another person wrote: [Fuck, fuck! Who is this adorable child?]
Someone else commented: [No way!!
The comments suddenly changed, and the screen was filled with curses.
It was for no other reason than the small figure that appeared at the door of the living room.
He was wearing a navy-style kindergarten uniform, white socks, and leather shoes. He wore a striped academy cap at an angle on his head, and his small backpack was slung neatly behind his back. He did not look like he had just finished school. Instead, he looked like he had just returned from filming a set of model portraits. His face was cute and handsome.
He was holding a rainbow lollipop that was bigger than his face. He would suck on it from time to time, almost adorable.
any guests at home? Theo tilted his head and asked in confusion.
I'm back... Why are there so many
Karen's expression changed drastically, and his eyes widened in disbelief.
She thought, 'How... how did he...
Alexis almost cried on the spot. She pounced over and hugged Theo. "Will, my good grandson, where did you go? I thought something had happened to you!"
Theo felt a little uncomfortable and wanted to break free, but seeing how Alexis was crying so miserably, he endured it and did not move.
"Will, come here. Byron waved at him with a dark expression.
Theo walked over with a lollipop in her mouth. "Why are you looking for me!"
"Where did you go just now?" Byron's brows were deeply furrowed. His gaze checked his entire body inch by inch. After confirming that he was not injured, his expression cased.
"I went to the arcade to play for a while. Did something happen Theo asked knowingly and handed the lollipop over. "Look, I caught this from the claw machine!"
He couldn't catch the dolls in the claw machine, but if they were food, he would catch anything he wanted.
Byron took the lollipop from his hand and said coldly, "Why didn't you inform me before you went out? The candy is confiscated."
L
Theo was pissed.
"What are you doing?" Theo glared at him angrily. "Why are you stealing from a child? Haven't you had lollipops before?" Byron said, "No, that's why I can't bear to see you eat." Theo felt speechless.
