Chapter 486

The police officer in charge of recording the interview could not help looking up at Renee. He frownedand reproached, “Your son has been missing for so long, and you still wouldn’t report it to the police?Don’t you think you’re being too reckless as the parents? Thank god the child was clever enough toreport it to the police himself! Although we still haven’t figured out where he is, we’ve caught thesuspected kidnapper, so the situation might not end up so serious after all.”

Renee nodded repeatedly, “You’re right, Officer. We, as adults, have certainly been too neglectful.”

But in her head, she silently thought, ‘I wonder which unlucky guys had to deal with Adie this time.They should count their blessings if they didn’t end up getting sold into a human trafficking ring by him!’

Adie had run away on his own many times before, so it was inevitable that he would encounter badguys with sinister motives against him, but each time it always ended with the kidnappers calling thepolice for help themselves after realizing that they could not deal with the true menace that was AidenEverheart!

“The suspect has confessed to the crime,” said the officer in charge, “but she refused to reveal thechild’s whereabouts. Instead, she asserted that she intended to harm your child because she has apersonal grudge against you. She has made a request to talk to you alone.”

“Personal grudge?” Renee suddenly tensed up and seemed slightly more concerned now.

She had indeed made quite a few enemies by that point, and she knew that those who would holdgrudges against her were certainly no saints. If it was true that Adie had fallen into their hands, thenperhaps her son was in much more of a bind than she thought.

Renee clenched her hands and promptly asked, “Where is she? Let her come and talk to me!’

“Okay,” replied the police officer. He then spoke into the intercom, “Bring her in.”

Soon, the door to the interrogation room opened, and in came a woman whose hands were bound byhandcuffs that glinted under the light. It was Briar Desrosiers. Her face was stony and lifeless, but assoon as she saw Renee, it was as if she was splashed with a bucket of ice-cold water. She seemed tobe reanimated in an instant. With a cruel smirk on her face, she said, “Why did you have to hurry overhere so quickly, Renee Everheart? You should’ve just wait a little longer. Someone would’ve gone toyou and told you what became of your poor Adie!”

Renee tried her best to restrain herself from killing Briar right then and there. She coldly said, “Youshould’ve come straight to me if you hold any grudges against me. Why did you have to lay your filthyhands on an innocent child? Aren’t you afraid of divine retribution?”

“So now you’re talking about going straight to you instead of an innocent child, huh? Why didn’t youthink of that when you killed my baby and caused me to lose the chance to ever be a mother again?!”

Briar was now so agitated that she acted like a rabid dog, lunging toward Renee and screeched,“You’re the reason why my baby died! Because of that, I’ll never give your son a chance to live a goodlife. God is so kind to you, isn’t he? He’s given you such an adorable son! I do like the boy myself, butit’s too bad that he has your dirty blood in his veins. For that, I’ll do anything to make sure he suffers afate worse than death!”

“Soon enough, you’ll find out what happened to your poor child. By then, I wish that you’ll live the restof your life plagued by guilt and shame, because you’re the reason he had to suffer!”

The police officer quickly subdued her and sternly warned her, “That’s enough! Don’t force our hands orwe’ll have to use a tougher measure to contain you!”

“Go ahead!” Briar sneered sinisterly even as her head was pinned onto the table till her face wassmooshed out of shape, putting her in a humiliating position. “I’m not scared! Just do whatever toughmeasure you want on me! I don’t care anymore because I’ve got what I wanted. That boy is ruinednow! You will suffer for the rest of your life, Renee Everheart! Even if I die now, I’ll die happy and inpeace!”novelbin

Carmine Pawnshop was an infamous place in the underground market where anyone who steppedthrough its doors would have no chance of turning back. Their boss, Mr. Q, was known to be StefanHunt’s deadliest enemy. It was not hard to guess at all what kind of painful fate would befall Adie, withhim being Stefan’s son.

After all, if Briar was going to attack Renee, she had better attack her where it would hurt the most, andwhat would hurt a mother more than seeing her own child suffer?

Renee was so enraged that she trembled, but she still managed to keep herself under control. With aperfectly calm demeanor, she asked the police officer, “Could you please leave this room for a while?I’d like to talk to her alone.
