Kerri asked in a hurry, "Was it Sprague who was taken or another child?"
"It was another child." Devin said, panting heavily.
Agnes and Kerri felt a heavy blow at the same time.
It was Nocturne.
Nocturne was taken by Brayden's people.
"Devin, don't call the cops yet. I'll handle this, and don't spread this around the hospital either." Kerri told Devin.
No one in the hospital knew about Kerri's relationship with Brayden.
This kind of kidnap-like situation had happened several times before.
Brayden's people failed every time in the past.
This time, Brayden's target was likely Sprague as well.
But unexpectedly, Sprague was in the bathroom at the time.
So Brayden's people took another patient's child, mistaking him for Kerri's child.
What a big mix-up.
"I got it, Kerri." Devin said.
After Devin left, Kerri hurriedly said, "Agnes, don't worry. It's Brayden who took the child. He thought it was Sprague. I'll call him right now and ask him to return the child."
Agnes looked a bit upset, "Is Brayden in the Capital now?"
Kerri nodded.
"Jared is there too." Agnes voiced her concern.
Kerri seemed to understand Agnes' worry right away.
Kerri also got anxious, "There shouldn't be any coincidence, right?"
Agnes always had a bad feeling in her heart.
But she didn't need to worry too much. She knew Brayden's character.
If he realizes the child is not the right one, he will definitely return him.
Besides, Brayden didn't know Nocturne was Agnes' child, so he might not even meet Jared.
