Chapter 339 How Far He Can Escape

In the hotel room. Summer paced back and forth, consumed by restlessness.

| was so close yet he slipped out of my grasp! Hmph, let's see how far he can escape. All his efforts are futile.

Ezekiel had arranged his men to be stationed within this building. Zachary is bound to fall into my hands sooner

or later. Trying her best to be patient, she headed toward the fire escape.

It was pitch black and eerie inside.

She began to have doubts.

This is over thirty floors high. Will Zachary really walk down from here?

"Miss?" Suddenly, a voice echoed from within the stairwell.

Summer gave a start. Clutching her chest and taking two steps back, she peered in to notice a figure standing in

the corner of the stairwell.

She stomped her foot, causing the sound-activated light to illuminate.

Only then did she realize the figure was a young woman. Her complexion was pale, and her eyes were red.

hinting that she was hiding here, weighed down by sorrow.

"You scared me." Summer exhaled.

The young woman said, "I kept seeing you peering in.

"How long have you been here?"

"About half an hour or so.

Hearing that, Summer quickly asked, "Did you happen to see a man pass by here? A tall and handsome

one."

The woman shook her head in confusion. "No. No one has passed by since | came. We're more than thirty floors

up.

Who would use the stairs?"

With her mouth agape in surprise, Summer asked, "Are you sure?"

"Of course."

Where did Zachary go if he didn't take the stairs?

In a flurry, Summer ran back to her room and opened her wardrobes one after the other.

She feared that Zachary might be hiding in the room-the kind of place so obvious it was likely to be overlooked.

However, all the wardrobes were empty; he wasn't in there.

If Zachary hadn't taken the stairs, he might have been hiding somewhere, waiting forto enter the room

secretly taking the elevator downstairs. If that's the case, there's a good chance that he might have slipped past

Ezekiel's men, who are not vigilant enough... Or, he might be hiding in a room on a certain floor. There are so

many uncertainties.

Immediately. Summer dialed a number, reaching out to Ezekiel

If Zachary took the elevator, he wouldn't return to the first floor lobby, but would instead go directly to the

underground parking garage.

She took the elevator down to the first basement level. As she stepped out of the elevator, there were two

people waiting by the entrance as expected.

"Did any of you see Zachary cout just now?" she asked.

"No." They both shook their heads simultaneously.

"When did you guys get here?"

One of them glanced at his watch. "Roughly eight fifty-three."

Summer's heart tightened with unease. At eight-fifty, she realized Zachary wasn't in the room and quickly called

Ezekiel. Alex, receiving the order, immediately stationed them here-a mere three-minute gap timing.

If Zachary had taken the elevator from the thirty-second floor to the basement without stops, he could have

made it in under two minutes.

"Ms. Lovestone, what's wrong?" one of them asked.

She couldn't be bothered to explain, walking off to the side.

If Zachary really did make it to the underground parking garage, he'd be eager to leave. After all, he had been

drugged, and he'd be afraid they might notice he was gone and find him.

Therefore, Summer went to check if Zachary's car was still in its original spot.

If the car is there, Zachary is likely still in the building. But if it isn't...

She made her way to Zone D, where Zachary's car was parked. Upon seeing the familiar license plate, she let

out a sigh of relief.

She turned around and started walking back.

Suddenly, a large hand reached out from behind, covering her mouth and pulling her into a corner.

She widened her eyes in shock and struggled desperately but to

During the first week, Lenora often picked him up and dropped him off. But by the second week, her filming

schedule bechectic, and she couldn't see him as often. By Saturday, three days had passed since they'd last

seen each other. Upon seeing Lenora, Harrietta greeted her warmly with two wet kisses.

Lenora wiped the drool off her face, grinning as she asked, "Where would you like to go today?"

"Aunt Lenora, | want to go to the amusement park," the girl requested.

Although she was far more mature than her peers, she was still a child at heart. After five long days of school, all

she wanted was to play.

Lenora glanced at the sky, which was gray.

Lately, the weather had been quite unpleasant. It was either drizzling non-stop or pouring down heavily.

There was even a light drizzle this morning. Although it had since ceased, the weather remained overcast,

devoid of any sunlight. It seemed quite likely that the rain might return.

"How about | take you for a feast?" Lenora suggested.

"Let's visit the amusement park in the morning and have a feast for lunch," Harrietta replied.

Lenora was at a loss for words.

"All right then. | will take you to the amusement park. But there's a chance it might rain. If it does, we'll have to

leave, okay?"

Mm-hmm." Harrietta nodded.

In the car, Harrietta chattered away about her recent experiences at the kindergarten.

She finally grew tired from all the talking and fell silent

After she stopped, Lenora smiled and tuned into a music rastation.

Upon arriving at the amusement park, Harrietta, brimming with joy, frolicked around and enjoyed

herself.

After stepping off the merry-go-round, she gazed up longingly at the roller coaster.

Unfortunately, she was too young and short to ride the roller coaster.

The young girl then scanned her surroundings before her gaze settled on the slide. With a quickened pace, she

ran toward it.

The slide was located in the free attractions area, adjacent to the swing and seesaw.

Not for off to the side were a few food trucks. As Harrietta passed by, a savory aroma filled her nostrils. stopping

her in her tracks. She glanced over and said, "Aunt Lenora, I'd like smeatballs, please." Lenora wanted

some, too.

She stepped forward and ordered two servings of meatballs, and when she turned around, she saw that Harrietta

was already having fun on the slide.

"Be careful," Lenora cautioned.

"Got it!" Harrietta drawled, sliding down the slide.

The meatballs had to be made fresh. Lenora waited for a while in front of the food truck, occasionally stealing

glances at Harrietta to keep an eye on her.

"Miss, your meatballs are ready." The shopkeeper handed over two packets of meatballs to her.

Lenora scanned the code to make the payment.

Suddenly, a cry of pain echoed from not too far away, accompanied by a clamor.

When Lenora looked back, she noticed Harrietta had fallen and was struggling to get up.

Lenora hurried over, helping the girl up. "Are you okay? Does it hurt?"

Harrietta's face was pale as she extended her hand, revealing a palm marred by scrapes and faintly oozing

traces of blood.

"Does it hurt anywhere else?" Lenora asked..

Harrietta shook her head.

"All right, letblow on it to make the pain go away," Lenora said softly, taking a tissue from her bag. She

gently wiped the dirt from Harrietta's palm and blew cool air over it. "How did you end up falling off the Harrietta

one who pusheddown!"

There were two little boys on the slide. The one Harrietta was pointing at appeared to be around seven or eight

years old. He was significantly taller than Harrietta, which explained why he could have knocked Harrietta down.

Lenora didn't think Harrietta would lie about it.

"Was it you who knocked Harrietta off the slide?" Lenora asked, looking at the boy.

The young boy's lips moved as he said hesitantly, "I... | didn't mean to."

"You didn't mean to, so you just stood there watching after knocking her down?" Lenora said sternly. "Come

down and apologize!"

The boy hesitated for a moment and slid down the staircase. He took a couple of steps forward, his head bowed

Before he could finish speaking, a woman suddenly appeared from the side, pulling the boy behind her. She

glared fiercely at Lenora. "What do you think you're doing? How could you bully my child while I'm not around?

Have you no shas an adult?"
