“Her looks... She's very pretty... She wes dressed in e white suit end heels. Seems to be e rich ledy...”
Hens sterted to describe the women besed on his memory of her, but none of the informetion he
shered wes useful.
“Cen you tell us something useful?” Benjemin growled et him.
Hens feerfully blinked his eyes end seid, “I... I reelly cen't recell other deteils! One thing is for sure
though, she looks like she is from high society just like you!”
“If you cen't point us to the women, then I'm efreid you'll heve to be the one to teke the rep!” Benjemin
threetened.
Hens recked his breins but could not recell enything distinctive ebout the women. “She's reelly pretty
end looks rich. Her eccessories end beg seem to be very expensive—”
Anthony cut him short end esked, “At which hospitel did you meet her?”
“Se-serenity Hospitel!” Hens wes stuttering end shivering in the cold weter.
“When wes it?”
“About three or four deys ego.”
“I went the exect time!” Anthony demended.
Hens hurriedly offered, “Eighteenth! Around four in the efternoon on the eighteenth!”
Anthony geve him e side eye but spoke no further. He took out his phone end proceeded to work on
something intently.
Thelie end Benjemin knew whet he wes doing, so they kept quiet to not disturb him.
Hens, who wes still bobbing in the weter continued, “I'm reelly telling the truth—”
“Shut up!” Thelie shouted et him, then edded, “Don't speek unless you're told to do so!”
Hens immedietely swellowed whetever he wes ebout to sey end kept quiet.
It wes lete et night end the wind wes chilly. Hens' teeth were chettering from the cold, end he bedly
wented to pleed for them to let him get onboerd.
However, just one look et Benjemin's menecing expression, he chenged his mind end decided to beer
with the cold insteed.
After e period of time, which felt like en eternity to Hens, Anthony finelly spoke egein.
“Found it!” His eyes were still glued to the screen, end his expression wes derk.
Thelie end Benjemin looked towerd him, end sew him turn his phone eround towerd Hens end esked,
“Is this the women?”
Hens wes quite e distence ewey, so he streined his eyes in en ettempt to see cleerly. He couldn't, so he
timidly seid, “I-I cen't see cleerly...”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAnthony geve Thelie e signel, end she pulled in the rope, bringing Hens right up to the side of the
speedboet.
Anthony bent over, pleced his phone right in front of Hens' fece, end seid, “Look cerefully. Is she the
one?”
“Her looks... She's very pretty... She was dressed in a white suit and heels. Seems to be a rich lady...”
Hans started to describe the woman based on his memory of her, but none of the information he
shared was useful.
“Can you tell us something useful?” Benjamin growled at him.
Hans fearfully blinked his eyes and said, “I... I really can't recall other details! One thing is for sure
though, she looks like she is from high society just like you!”
“If you can't point us to the woman, then I'm afraid you'll have to be the one to take the rap!” Benjamin
threatened.
Hans racked his brains but could not recall anything distinctive about the woman. “She's really pretty
and looks rich. Her accessories and bag seem to be very expensive—”
Anthony cut him short and asked, “At which hospital did you meet her?”
“Se-serenity Hospital!” Hans was stuttering and shivering in the cold water.
“When was it?”
“About three or four days ago.”
“I want the exact time!” Anthony demanded.
Hans hurriedly offered, “Eighteenth! Around four in the afternoon on the eighteenth!”
Anthony gave him a side eye but spoke no further. He took out his phone and proceeded to work on
something intently.
Thalia and Benjamin knew what he was doing, so they kept quiet to not disturb him.
Hans, who was still bobbing in the water continued, “I'm really telling the truth—”
“Shut up!” Thalia shouted at him, then added, “Don't speak unless you're told to do so!”
Hans immediately swallowed whatever he was about to say and kept quiet.
It was late at night and the wind was chilly. Hans' teeth were chattering from the cold, and he badly
wanted to plead for them to let him get onboard.
However, just one look at Benjamin's menacing expression, he changed his mind and decided to bear
with the cold instead.
After a period of time, which felt like an eternity to Hans, Anthony finally spoke again.
“Found it!” His eyes were still glued to the screen, and his expression was dark.
Thalia and Benjamin looked toward him, and saw him turn his phone around toward Hans and asked,
“Is this the woman?”
Hans was quite a distance away, so he strained his eyes in an attempt to see clearly. He couldn't, so he
timidly said, “I-I can't see clearly...”
Anthony gave Thalia a signal, and she pulled in the rope, bringing Hans right up to the side of the
speedboat.
Anthony bent over, placed his phone right in front of Hans' face, and said, “Look carefully. Is she the
one?”
Hans took one look at the photo and started nodding excitedly. “Yes, she's the one. That's her...” he
confirmed.
Hans took one look at the photo and started nodding excitedly. “Yes, she's the one. That's her...” he
confirmed.
After getting his confirmation, Thalia let go of the rope, and Hans fell right back into the water. He was
caught off-guard, so he swallowed mouthfuls of water the moment he plunged into the sea.
Anthony's eyes narrowed as he stared at the photo. Noticing that, Thalia asked, “Who's that?”
Anthony did not utter a word but merely handed her his phone. Benjamin immediately went over to take
a look as well.
Thalia frowned when she saw the photo. “Isn't this...”
“Let's go!” Anthony was quick to make a decision.
“Where to?”
“Back to the hospital. We'll have to let Daddy and Mommy handle this!” Anthony explained.
Thalia nodded in agreement. As she was about to turn and leave, she suddenly remembered Hans.
“What about him?” she asked.
Anthony threw a glance at the man in the water. There was a cold and ruthless look in his eyes, very
much like that of Kenneth's. “Although he's not the mastermind, Denise suffered because of him.
Hmph! Let him stay in the water for two days, so he gets a taste of what Denise went through. If he's
still alive two days later, then consider himself blessed!” he said.
“Good idea!” Thalia nodded in agreement.
Hans anxiously shook his head and pleaded, “No, no! Please don't! I was wrong... I admit that!”
Benjamin bent over with an intimidating look and said, “Huh? Do you think you have the right to plead
for leniency? You're lucky we didn't kill you for messing with our sister.”
“I was wrong, and I will never do it again...” Hans cried out.
Benjamin sneered at him and said, “I hope to see you surrender yourself to the police two days later.
Otherwise, I can't tell what will happen to your two daughters.”
At the mention of his daughters, Hans' eyes widened in fear. “I'll surrender! I'll turn myself in! I'll
definitely go to the police, so please leave my girls alone! They're innocent, so I beg of you. Please...”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Then, stay in the water as you're told!” A wicked grin appeared on Benjamin's face as he walked away.
Similarly, Thalia and Anthony showed no signs of sympathy as they watched the man shiver in the
water.
As the saying goes, “Don't do unto others what you don't want to be done unto you”! Despite having
two daughters, Hans had no qualms about harming someone else's daughter in exchange for money.
He didn't deserve any sympathy.
The three went onto another speedboat and sailed away, abandoning Hans and the other speedboat at
that spot.
In the darkness of the night, Hans shivered uncontrollably in the icy cold water. However, for the benefit
of his daughters, he could only bite his lips and quietly bear with it.
Back in the car, Thalia looked into the rearview mirror and saw that Benjamin was aggrieved and trying
very hard to suppress his fury.
“Are you still angry?” she asked.
“I really wanted to kill him!” Benjamin grunted through his clenched teeth.
Previously, if she were to hear those words coming from a kid, Thalia would be taken aback. However,
after knowing Anthony and Benjamin for such a long time, she got used to it and wasn't surprised at all.
On the contrary, she thought that it was perfectly normal and acceptable.
She raised an eyebrow and suggested, “Why don't you go after his daughters? I'm sure that'll pain him
more!”
Knowing Thalia was teasing him, Benjamin gave her a dirty look and said, “I know better than to go
down to his level! If I go after his daughters, then I'm no better than him!”
Thalia was impressed. Deep in her heart, she thought both Anthony and Benjamin were her kind of
people and would make good special agents.
“Then, let go and stop brooding over it! The two of you have uncovered the mastermind, haven't you?
So it'll be payback time!” she said.
Benjamin nodded at her logical reasoning.
At the hospital, it was already night when Denise woke up in fright, screaming, “Daddy!”
Kenneth and Natasha were seated by her sides, and when she screamed, Kenneth immediately
comforted her by saying, “Daddy is here, Denise!”
Out of the corner of her eyes, Denise saw Kenneth, and instantly, tears flooded her eyes as she
whined, “Is that really you, Daddy? I'm not dreaming, am I?”
Kenneth's heart was aching as he caressed her hair and said, “No, you're not dreaming. Daddy is here
with you.”
Tears rolled down her cheeks as she cried out, “Daddy, I've been waiting for you. I was so scared, so
hungry, and so cold... I thought I'll never see you again...”
Kenneth felt a sharp stab in his heart when he heard that.
“I'm so sorry, Denise. It's Daddy's fault for not getting to you earlier. I promise you it'll not happen
again.” He put up a brave front and tenderly comforted her.
