Female Novel
Chapter 237
Because it was the peak season for hiking, there were a lot of people on the mountain. Some evenplanned to come hiking during the night so that they could catch a glimpse of sunrise the next day.However, this had undoubtedly increased the difficulty of their search work.
Looking down at the two children, Selena figured it wouldn’t be convenient to bring along the kidsduring late night.
“Jojo, Juniper, I’ll get someone to send the both of you back home, while I stay here to find Jamie, isthat alright? I really can’t take care of the both of you now, so I’ll get Linda to come and pick up youtwo.”
“I wish to stay.” Joaquin refused to leave. It was his brother who went missing after all, and theywere never separated since birth.
“I don’t want to leave, either. I want to stay with Mommy until we find Jamie,” said Juniper, as shewas worried over Jameson too.
“Both of you are still too young, and it’s really dark here. What if either of you fell down by accident?It’ll only make things worse. Listen to me, go home and wait for us.” After spending some timeconvincing the two children, they finally agreed to go back home.
With that, Selena joined the rest in search for Jameson. However, it wasn’t efficient to search in thedark with torchlights, so after a night of search, Jameson was still nowhere to be found.
All of a sudden, Selena had a gut feeling that this might not be an accident, but a plannedabduction. Otherwise, there was no way Jameson could possibly run off so far on his own andwithin a few minutes.
After a night’s search, everyone was exhausted, hungry and could barely keep their eyes open.novelbin
Meeting up with Selena, Niall reported, “Miss Yard, what now? We still can’t find him. We evensearched the mountains on the other side.”
“There wasn’t any clue on my side either.” Gazing at the deep valleys, Selena sighed.
Early in the morning, the mountain valleys hid behind a layer of mysterious mist. This was the firsttime in her life Selena ever felt terrified by the mountains.
“Miss Yard, what should we do now?” Feeling his heart in his mouth, Niall still felt responsible forwhat had happened.
“We have to inform Mr. Fowler.”
“What?!” Niall was fully aware that John wasn’t too fond of Selena. Now that things had turned outthis way, Selena intended to report to John about his precious grandson, who had gone missing?For heaven’s sake, John would strangle her alive!
“I’ll explain everything to him myself.”
Knowing the consequences, Selena understood that the negative opinions about her would onlyaccelerate, which would directly affect her future with Pierre. Then again, there was no other way,for finding Jameson should be the ultimate priority.
Since Pierre wasn’t around, John would be their only hope.
With that, Selena went straight to the Fowler Residence. When John heard of the news, heimmediately summoned Selena’s presence.
Sitting in the living room, Selena felt her heart pounded when she saw John walking in with amurderous look on his face.
Admittedly, she was trembling inside, as she’d heard of John’s dignity; she was afraid that he wouldend her life in a single gunshot.
“Jamie went missing?”
“Yes, I’m really sorry. I thought of bringing the children to camp at the mountaintop, but hedisappeared after we came out of the washroom. We searched through the entire night, but foundnothing. Hence, I suspect that someone had plotted to kidnap the child. If my guess is correct,things will be way more complicated, which is why I find it necessary to report to you and to seekyour help.”
Trying to suppress his rage, John felt he had underestimated this woman. Under suchcircumstances, she was still able to remain calm and even suspected that this was a deliberatekidnap case. It seems like this woman is truly not as simple or ordinary as she appears to be.
