There were a lot of people who came with their children on the weekend. The Eastlake Amusement Park parking lots were full.
Everleigh ran to the parking lot and looked around. A conspicuous blue light flashed in front of her eyes. Her eyes narrowed as she shouted in that direction, "Stop!"
The two men turned to look at her. The desperate look on Everleigh's face was out of place compared to what was around her. They glanced at Everleigh, and the man behind hurriedly stuffed the child into the car.
"Hurry, let's go..."
Everleigh wanted to chase after them, but their car had already sped through and exited the parking lot.
Everleigh immediately took out her phone, took a photo of the car and sent it to Loraine. While she sent a voice message, she got into her car. She immediately put on her seatbelt and chased after the car.
"Loraine, send the license plate to the police and your mom. Hansen is in this car."
After she sent the message, she put down her phone, stepped on the gas pedal and followed the black car in front of her into Eastlake Street. She kept a close tail all the way to the highway.
The kidnapper's car drove very fast and Everleigh stepped on the accelerator hard. The car was moving at 120 km/h. The car navigation constantly flashed the speeding reminder and her phone rang constantly but she had no time to care about anything.
The black car circled the city, trying to get her off their trail. However, Everleigh followed them closely. After half an hour, they got off the highway and went through to Eastlake Coast.
Eastlake Coast was a wharf, waiting to be developed. It was the most desolate place in Ocpeace City.
Everleigh's car followed the black car all the way to the entrance of an abandoned auto repair shop. She saw the car parked behind a pile of weeds from a distance.
When they got out of the car, one of the kidnappers, Bob, carried Hansen in his arms.
The driver, Tom, sneered and said to Bob, "This woman really has balls. She came after us alone."
Everleigh did not dare to go too close. Her face was tensed up as she said, "The child has nothing to do with this. If you want money, just say it. Don't hurt him."
The two men looked at each other, and Tom said, "Money? We have that. I'm afraid that you won't be able to pay that amount. If they weren't forced to a dead end, who would do such a thing? You are too naive. You've offended someone and have completely no idea."
"You came for me?" Everleigh suddenly realized something.
"Since you've come all the way here, let me be clear to you. My employer wants you to leave Ocpeace City, as far as possible. As long as you leave, your son will be safe."
What Tom said was clear as day, and Everleigh immediately understood.
These two people had mistaken Hansen for Alastair.
"Who put you up to this?"
"Every business has its own rules. Since we have received the money, we'll need to solve their problem. Don't ask about things you shouldn't ask. Even if you ask, we won't tell you."
Everleigh gritted her teeth and said, "Well, even if you don't tell me, I already know. It's
Mrs. Godfrey from the Godfrey Group, right?"
The two men looked at each other and did not answer her.
They were admitting it through their behavior.
"Stop asking questions. Just tell us if you are willing to leave Ocpeace City." Tom was getting impatient. "The sooner you agree, the sooner we can release the kid."
"I can leave Ocpeace City, but you've got to get your facts right," Everleigh glanced at Hansen who slept in Bob's arms. "You've got the wrong person. He's not my son."
"Hmph." Tom sneered. "Do you think I will believe you?"
As soon as he said it, his eyes turned cold. He pulled out a dagger from his waist and placed it on Hansen's neck. His eyes were cold and murderous. "Don't play games with us. If you know what's good for you, don't follow us anymore. Go back, pack up your things and leave Ocpeace City. Once you're gone, the child will be safe."
