"No, Louis." Emily frowned. "We can't leave Mimi here alone. She could die." "But that's what she wants. She wants her child to be safe! She will survive. We just need to save her child quickly. I think we can do it. We are trained children, you remember?" Once again, Emily shook her head firmly. "No, Louis. That's too risky. We can't be selfish and think about our own pleasure. How about we just call the forest house? This is a serious matter." While Louis took a deep breath, Sky knitted her eyebrows. She looked very serious with her lips folded inward. "I think Emily is right. We can't solve this problem alone. We need help from adults. Our parents and the foundation people. We have to report this to them. Mimi needs medical help, while the poachers need to be caught." Louis pondered for a moment. He was actually reluctant to contact his parents. He wanted to be independent. However, Emily and Sky's words made sense. The problem was too big for them. "Okay. I'll call Dad
"Do I see correctly? There is a human child in the middle of the forest?" The man spoke a language that Louis and Emily didn't understand. An annoyed chuckle came from the other man. "Damn! Just adding to our work." "What should we do now?" "What else? We can't possibly let them escape. They can report to other people. Our plan could be ruined. Let's catch them!" The twins blinked at the rifle pointed at them. Emily immediately hid behind Louis' back, while Louis bravely stepped forward and stretched his arms in front of Mimi. "Don't hurt these orangutans! They are rare animals protected by the whole world. They should not be hunted and traded!" Louis exclaimed loudly. Over Louis' shoulder, Emily peeked out. "Yes! Orangutans must be conserved, not hunted. Don't you feel sorry for them? Look! The baby is scared!" Unexpectedly, the two hunters laughed. Not long after that, another person arrived with a frightening aura. His skin color was much paler than his friends. Obvio
"Papa, what a coincidence, Louis' GPS is with me. I'm looking at the coordinates of our location," Sky blinked stiffly. "That's great, Baby. Can you tell me the coordinates? I will be heading straight there." Sky swallowed hard. Cold sweat beaded on her forehead. "That's the problem. I forgot the numbers I had memorized." Edmund fell silent for a moment. Sky could imagine him sighing in disappointment. "Papa, are you angry? Change." "No, Baby. I'm not angry. I understand that you are too nervous. Try to take a deep breath, calm your mind. You have managed to remember all the numbers and even letters, Darling. Slowly, you will be able to read them." Sky followed Edmund's advice. After closing her eyes for a moment, she looked carefully at the coordinates. "There's a little line sleeping here, Papa." "Okay. That's a negative sign. It means you are south of the equator. Then?" "There's an egg. It's zero, right?" "Yes. You're doing well so far. What's next, D
The twins fell silent. They didn't know what the right answer was. They didn't want to go back to that cramped confinement, but they also didn't want to be shot. Moreover, the hunter in front of them seemed serious about his threat. "Louis, I don't think we should fight back. He won't hesitate to shoot us. Look, his finger is ready to pull the trigger," Emily whispered anxiously. Louis swallowed hard. He agreed with his sister, but was reluctant to admit it. "Relax, Emily. There must be other ways to survive." He thought hard, forcing his brain to come up with spontaneous ideas. "Sir, how about we negotiate?" he said unexpectedly. The hunter pulled his eyes back from the lookout hole. One of his eyebrows rose. He didn't expect to hear those words. "What kind of negotiation can a little kid like you offer?" "We are not ordinary kids. We are the heirs of the Savior Group, potential great leaders in the future. If you are willing to free us, we will pay you a large amount.
"Sky, we should have brought that rifle too. Why did we leave it in the tent? The hunter could have taken it," Emily whispered as she shook Sky's hand. Feeling uncomfortable, Louis elbowed his sister in the arm. "Emily, there's nothing to regret. We'd better think of a way to defeat this evil man." "You think you can beat me?" The hunter laughed harshly. "Don't dream!" The hunter raised his rifle again. However, when he was about to aim, a strange sound came from above. Seeing a big orangutan about to jump from a branch, Sky hurriedly pulled the twins to run. She no longer cared about the rifle lying on the ground. She knew very well that angry orangutan was much more dangerous than the hunter. Meanwhile, the hunter was already stunned. He could only scream when the large mammal fell on him. The other hunters who watched did not dare to act. They didn't even move, afraid that the orangutan would think of them as their next target. "Aaargh! You guys .... Don't just sta
"I want a divorce." Alice froze. Her eyes twitched as she digested those words. Edmund had just come home from work. Shouldn't he say hello? “Sorry, Ed. What did you say?” Alice let out a laugh. Her right hand rose to the side of her ear. “There must be something wrong with my hearing.” "I want a divorce," Edmund said firmly. Tears were visible in his eyes. Alice's head tilted back. Her eyes flickered with incomprehension. She was actually keeping a sweet surprise in a box behind her back—the two stripes they had been waiting for for a long time. But her husband asked her to divorce? After a moment of silence, a small laugh escaped her mouth again. "Your joke is ridiculous, Ed." "I'm serious. I don't want to continue this marriage." His voice was hoarse and full of pressure. Her expression became flat again. She knew that tone. Edmund wasn't joking. “W-why? Aren't we fine?” Alice tried to smile but failed. The wrinkles on her face were even more visible. "You ask why?" Edmu
After a few moments, Elizabeth closed the folder, gesturing for Giselle to put it out of Alice's reach. "No need to wait for the trial. Starting from now, you are no longer my daughter-in-law. You are no longer Edmund Hills' wife, and you have no right to set foot in this house." “But I—” “No buts. Now get out of here! Edmund, throw your ex-wife out!” Edmund took a deep breath. His hands seemed reluctant to let go of the grip. Alice realized that. She looked back, furrowing her brows in anticipation of an opportunity. “Ed, please. I don't want to be separated from you. We have promised to always be together. You remember? You are my purpose and reason to live. Especially now, I—” “Edmund, don't waste your time on this trash! You don't need to hear what she says. Edmund?” Seeing that her son did not move, Elizabeth grabbed Alice's hair. Alice spontaneously screamed. She had to walk backwards following Elizabeth to reduce the pain. When she reached the door, a strong push made h
"Are you sure you don't want me to accompany you?" Emma asked hesitantly. Alice shook her head. “Just handle your work. I’ll go home with Ed.” “Wow, I like that spirit. Good luck, Alice. Let me know when you two have hugged and kissed." After snorting a laugh, Alice got out of the car. Her heart was full of hope even though it was still covered in wounds. However, seeing Elizabeth at the entrance, her spirits loosened. She slowed down. "Mom?" Her hands subconsciously moved to protect her stomach. “As I thought, you would disturb my son again.” With a sour look, Elizabeth walked over and handed her a brown envelope. "What's this?" Alice asked, wary. Elizabeth smiled crookedly. “Isn't it what you’re looking for? The real reason why Ed divorced you. The reason why he had the heart to break his promise and stop caring about you.” Alice's eyes widened. Her heart started beating erratically. She opened the envelope with shaking hands. As soon as she found the contents, a lightning s
