NovelEnglishVania approached him, and she could feel his body shaking as she gently held his hand. “Don’t be
afraid.”
With that, she scooped him up gently. He was a five-year-old boy, yet Vania could pick him up
effortlessly since he only weighed very little.
The scorching sunlight was so bright that the little guy had difficulty keeping his eyes open.
Moreover, he dared not look at the man in front of him.
On the other hand, rage surged within Vania as she looked at the staggering, drunk man in front of
them who hadn’t stopped cursing.
At that, she glanced at Henry, who immediately ordered their men to restrain the drunk man before
announcing, “You bought this child from a trafficker five years ago. Now that he has been arrested, the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtchild should return to his parents as well. We know you bought the child and that your factory was
forced to shut down, causing you to owe your workers three million. Also, we know that the police and
your debt collectors are hunting you down. We will be taking this child away.”
Hearing that the child would be taken away, he smashed the liquor bottle in his hand. “I dare you to try!
I bought that child! No one is taking him anywhere without my permission!”
Was he reluctant to part with the little guy? Of course not. He only wanted to extort Vania’s money, for
he could tell she was well off from her outfit and the vibe she exuded.
Of course, everyone saw through his little scheme.
To that, Henry snorted disdainfully, “You can have this the easy way or the hard way.”
However, the drunk man couldn’t care less, flailing his arms. “I don’t care whatever way you use; you’ll
have to walk over my dead body if you want to take the child away, or no one leaves! I’m going to sue
you guys for trespassing!”
His weak warning only had everyone sneering except for the boy, who trembled further in fear.
Henry pointed at the drunk man and threatened, “Is that so? You can’t even save yourself. You should
consider yourself lucky that we haven’t sent you to the police.”
The drunk man sobered up immediately upon hearing the word ‘police’, and he was startled.
Though he didn’t know who these people were, he could tell this woman had an extraordinary
temperament. No matter what, she wasn’t just some plain Jane.
Also, he was well aware that he wouldn’t be able to keep the child even if he wanted to.
That is, if he even wanted to keep this crib lizard.
Then again, he didn’t want to let the child go for nothing. Hell, he had spent a hundred thousand on
him!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn reality, he was speaking incoherently despite blowing a fuse, having zero intimidation. “Even if you
want to take the child away, shouldn’t you ask him if he wants to?”
With that, Vania looked toward the fearful child. She caressed his little face and asked gently, “Bubba, I
don’t know if you’ll understand what I’m about to tell you, but I’m your biological mother. Because of
some mishap five years ago, several bad guys took you away and sold you off here. I’ve been
searching for you since, and there hasn’t been a moment where I’ve not been thinking about you.”
She added, “It breaks my heart to hear that you’ve suffered a great deal in the last five years. I want to
take you away and let you live a normal life. I promise you that you will not regret following me, but do
you want to come with me?”
Like his siblings, the little guy was brilliant. He got Vania’s words immediately despite having never
been to school.
More than that, the innate affection and trust between family made him want to trust Vania inexplicably.
However, all of this happened so suddenly that his broken self had a hard time accepting it.
