Chapter 547

Author: Gathered Light
Ian stood silently to the side, watching coldly.

A woman as venomous as Penelope didn't deserve any pity. If it weren't for Lucy, he wouldn't even spare a sliver of emotion for her. He turned and headed back into the room.

By then, Eugene had stopped kicking. Taking a deep breath, he straightened his clothes and walked off with fury coursing through him.

Only Penelope was left behind, crumpled pathetically on the cold hospital floor. Tears of resentment streamed down her face—resentment toward Jacklyn. If it weren't for her, Eugene's body and soul would have belonged to her and her alone. Things would never have turned out this way.

Penelope's anguished scream echoed down the hallway.

"Penelope," someone called out.

"It's that bitch!" Penelope seethed to herself.

She forced herself to stand up. "What are you doing here? Are you happy to see me like this? Did you come to gloat?"

"I'm not as vile as you. Look at you right now. You look a complete mess—a far cry from the Mrs. Lloy

    It was Penelope's voice. When she stepped into the hospital room and noticed Eugene there, she quickly feigned concern for Noah.She walked up to him and put on an expression of worry. "Noah, are you okay? When I heard you were at the hospital, I thought they had hurt you."She even squeezed out a tear—almost.Eugene couldn't be bothered with her at the moment. His mind was spiraling. Who was Lucy's real father?Penelope, Lucy's mother, had to know.With this thought in mind, he yanked Penelope by the hand and dragged her outside the hospital room, ignoring Noah, who was watching."Gene, what are you doing? You're hurting me," Penelope whined with a pout."Penelope, I don't have time to play games right now!" Eugene snapped, his frustration visible."What do you mean, Gene?""Who exactly is Lucy's father?"The question made Penelope instantly tense and put her on high alert. She couldn't let Eugene know that Lucy was Ian's daughter. She hadn't become Mrs. Lloyd yet, so she co

    "Uncle Liam, I was really brave," Theodore said with a proud smile, trying to ease both Jacklyn's and Liam's worries.Hearing that, both adults smiled, but behind their smiles was a deep heartache for what Theodore had gone through."Uncle Liam, are we letting those two bad guys just walk away with the money?" Theodore asked, confusion clearly written across his face."Don't worry, Theo. Your mother and I, as well as Lucy's and Noah's parents, have already spoken with the police. They might even be in police custody already. As for the money, we'll get it back soon," Liam said as he ruffled Theodore's hair."I knew you and Mommy wouldn't let bad guys get away with the money.""Of course not, Theo. I won't let the people who hurt you get away that easily," Jacklyn thought.Jacklyn watched Liam and Theodore with a soft smile. Beneath her contentment lay a mother's sharp clarity.The three of them got into the car and drove off.Meanwhile, the other parents were also hovering anxi

    The next morning, Jacklyn and the others set out early, heading toward the outskirts of town.Several vehicles pulled up in front of a gas station, overgrown with weeds and covered in rust, looking like it had been abandoned for years."This place looks too dangerous. Jackie, I'll go over first. You wait in the car where it's safer," Liam said, turning to Jacklyn.Jacklyn gave him a helpless smile. "It's okay. We'll go together."Just then, Jacklyn's phone started ringing. Her eyes were filled with concern as she answered the phone. "Hello? We've arrived.""Okay. Wait there."Not long after, two men appeared from the cluster of rusted-out structures. Everyone noticed the two figures—one fat, one short—at first, but when they looked past them, hoping to see their kids, they found nothing."What's going on? Where are the kids?" Eugene's tone was sharp, though it was only loud enough for those near him to hear."Don't panic. Let's wait and see," Ian answered, his gaze fixed on the

    "No. The children's safety comes first. Doing that would just be sending them to their deaths. If those two men even sense something's off… I'm not about to let my child's life be cut this short," Jacklyn snapped as she turned and locked eyes with Eugene."That's right. The most important thing right now is to ensure their safety. Please calm down," Ian added.Even though he was incredibly worried about Lucy, he couldn't afford to let it show. If it weren't for Penelope, he would have taken Lucy away a long time ago, and none of this would have happened to her.Romy understood why Ian was saying that, but she didn't have the energy to care about it right now. She slumped into a chair, her shoulders hunched, and her disheveled hair made her look even more exhausted.The office fell into a brief silence.Even Eugene, who had been insisting they charge in headfirst earlier, had fallen silent. He was puzzled as to why Ian was so concerned about the kids. Despite Ian trying his best to

    Theodore reacted instantly. He grabbed Noah and yanked him back to the spot where they'd woken up, signaling Lucy to do the same.With a loud bang, the door was kicked open. Two figures stepped in, their shadows stretching across the floor in the moonlight, only to find the three children sleeping peacefully on the floor.The one in charge was a fierce-looking, burly, bearded man named Hector Klein. "Hey! Wake up, all of you! No more sleeping," he yelled.The children blinked slowly, pretending to be groggy and confused from having just woken up. Theodore rubbed his eyes, and when he opened them fully, he asked anxiously, "Where are we? I want to go home."The other two kids played along and whimpered quietly, huddling closer to each other.Hector stormed over and kicked Noah hard, who only let out a muffled grunt, refraining from crying out loud."Behave!""I want my mommy!" Lucy wailed loudly, tears streaming down her cheeks."It'll be okay, Lucy. Our moms will come get us,"
