Chapter 1124 This Woman Is Very Important to Me
Bert ran out of patience and knew that it was not a good thing. He stepped forward and grabbed the manager by
the collar. "Where are they now? Make it clear!"
"The backyard, they are in the backyard..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the manager felt a gust of wind flash past his eyes, and the black shadow in front
of him also disappeared. Huston followed closely behind, holding onto Evelyn's hand slower than him.
Bert strode out and went to the backyard through a pushed wooden door. As soon as he opened the door before he
could enter, Lucas jumped out and said, "Uncle Harper!"
The child's voice was somewhat sharp, caused by nervousness and fear.

"Ms. Graves... Ms. Graves, she..." The child's hesitant voice came from beside Bert.
Bert loosened his grip on the child's shoulder and stared at him. "Where is Alivia?"
"She was taken away by two other people. I was playing in the backyard, but suddenly two people came in from
outside, grabbed my hand, and were going to drag me away. Later, Ms. Graves dragged him back and asked me to
run. I saw the manager and told him, but when I returned to find her, Ms. Graves was already gone." Because he
was a six-year-old child, in the case of being frightened, her words might not be very organized.
After Huston came down, he heard these words. His thick eyebrows furrowed tightly, and he glanced down at the
woman in his arms. He gave a serious expression and ordered the manager beside him, "Get all the surveillance
videos from your backyard for me to see, from half an hour ago until now."
The manager knew that something had happened, so he hurriedly agreed. "Okay, Mr. Lloyd, I'll go now." Five
minutes later, in the office.
Looking at the surveillance video that lasted for five minutes, Huston and Bert's faces darkened.
Alivia was taken away. No, to be exact, she was kidnapped by a group of people of unknown origin.
From the surveillance footage, it could be seen that, at first, two masked men intended to take Lucas away, but
later Alivia confronted them, and for some reason, she exchanged herself to go with them.
Now the only thing they could be sure of was that the other party was not here for the child. Otherwise, he would
not have let Lucas go. There was only one possibility, which was that the other party had come for Bert.
"Call the police." Huston looked at the man beside him, who instantly exuded a cold aura. "It hasn't been too long
yet. Let the people in the police station speed up the investigation of the surveillance along the route. We might still
catch up."

At this point, even if Bert wanted his own people to investigate, this place was Jewel City, not Lownon. The fastest
and most effective method now was to report to the police.
Seeing that he had no objections, Huston immediately picked up his phone and called his acquaintances at the
police station.
Bert sat on the chair behind the screen, his eyes fixed on the screen the whole time. He didn't even raise his head
when Evelyn came over to comfort him.
There seemed to be a fire burning in his sharp eyes. He wished he could see through the screen and save the
person inside.
After Huston informed the police, he remained in the same state.
The relationship between men was always simple and straightforward. Huston felt that they also had a part of
responsibility in this matter. He patted Bert's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, we will find her."
Unexpectedly, Bert stood up and let out a deep breath. "I'll have to trouble you with this. This woman is very
important to me. I'll remember your kindness."
