“If anyone should be sent to jail, don’t miss out on even a single one of them!”
As soon as he had evidence, he could start his retaliation. He would take back double the things he lost.
So, Hunter wasn’t panicking at all. He could even use the situation to find the rats causing trouble behind the scenes. He could clear all the obstacles before he went overseas.
“Of course, the most important mission is to tell Madam Burgess to keep an eye on Madie. Don’t let her go out. As long as Madie doesn’t reveal herself in public, I’ll be able to deal with this issue swiftly.”
“Understood.”
Brent dialed a bodyguard’s number. Then, his expression changed. “Mr. Williams, Mrs. Williams went to a mall with Madam Burgess not long ago.”
Damn it! Madison didn’t have a phone, so she didn’t know how messed up things had become outside.
If she went out right now, she would only be targeted!
“Find out where they went. I’ll be right there.”
Hunter grabbed his coat and then hurriedly tried to leave. But when he opened the door, he saw police officers standing there expressionlessly.
“Mr. Williams, I’m the leader of the criminal investigation division, Xavier Harper. You’re suspected of being involved in a murder case. Please come with us to cooperate with the investigation.”
Hunter said coldly, “I have a very important matter to deal with right now. If you have anything to say, talk to my assistant.”
He was about to leave when Xavier stepped forward, blocking his path.
“Sorry, Mr. Williams. The murder case aside, someone also reported your company for tax evasion and other issues. You have to come with us.”
Someone was trying to delay him with these things at this particular moment. A trace of impatience appeared on Hunter’s calm face.
“If you have anything to say, just talk to my lawyer and assistant. Step aside.”
Xavier took out a pair of handcuffs right away. “Mr. Williams, if you refuse to cooperate, we’ll have to do this the hard way. The law enforcement recorder is running right now. Please follow the procedure.”
“I said, get lost!”
Lifting his hand, Hunter was about to strike Xavier. Xavier didn’t dodge either. It was as if he was waiting for Hunter to get mad.
Brent hastily took a step forward, stopping Hunter. He gave Hunter a look. “Mr. Williams, they’re just following procedures. You should go first. Leave the rest to me.”
Things were already chaotic enough, but now, Hunter was even accused of tax evasion. Someone was pulling strings in the shadows just to stir up even more trouble.
Hunter was prone to losing his sense of reason when Madison was involved. If he was charged with assault on a police officer, it would complicate things even more.
Hunter recovered his calm. He couldn’t mess up at a moment like this.
“Alright, I’ll leave it to you.”
“Don’t worry, Mr. Williams.”
Brent had just finished speaking when Xavier blocked Brent’s path as well.
“Sorry, Mr. Ingram, but you have to come with us for the investigation as well. Someone has also reported your company for falsifying accounts, among other illegal activities.”
Hunter’s eyes widened. He couldn’t suppress the cold air emanating from him anymore. Reaching out, he gripped Xavier’s collar.
“Don’t think I don’t recognize you, Mr. Harper. Quit acting all high and mighty here!”
Their gazes met, and their eyes were filled with confrontational looks.
“I thought you wouldn’t remember these things, Mr. Williams. You’re an important figure, after all. It’s a good thing that you remember. I told you that you’d better wish you didn’t fall into my hands.”
“Mr. Williams!” Brent coughed. He feared that they would get into a conflict, and someone would use this incident against Hunter.
Hunter glanced at the running law enforcement recorder. They had come prepared.
He was in a foul mood, but still, he remembered assigning bodyguards to Madison. She should be safe for the moment.
He suppressed his anger. “Lead the way.”
“This way, please, Mr. Williams.”
Madison and Madam Burgess arrived at the mall. Madam Burgess earned quite a lot every year, but she was quite frugal so that she could give more money to her family.
So, she wouldn’t spend money at places like this.
“Mrs. Williams, I already told you. You don’t have to do this. The things here are frighteningly expensive. I can buy things online, and they’re not too expensive either.”
“Madam Burgess, please don’t decline my earnest gift for you. Just take it as a New Year’s gift from me.”
“I can’t possibly accept a gift from you.”
“Come on, don’t be like that. You just got a grandson, didn’t you? I haven’t even met him before. I can at least buy something for him, right?”
Madam Burgess smiled. “Then, allow me to thank you on his behalf, Mrs. Williams.”
The two went to the baby store.
Small cute clothes filled their vision. Reaching out, Madison subconsciously touched her flat belly.
“Are you okay, Mrs. Williams?”
Madison finally returned to her senses. “I’m fine. Let’s go and pick something out. I’ll pay for it.”
“I’ll take your word for it, then.”
Madam Burgess happily hurried into the clothing department. Madison watched the future fathers and mothers picking out items for their babies. She felt a little sad.
She was supposed to have a child too.
Suddenly, a baby’s cry sounded in her ears. Madison’s motherly instincts were activated as she looked up toward the sound.
She saw a man in a mask who was wearing a thick down jacket. He was pushing a double stroller.
He picked up the crying baby, coaxing them patiently. He had a tall and huge figure, but he seemed to be quite skilled with these things.
But he had just picked up one baby when the other started crying as well.
Madison didn’t know what came over her, but she began walking toward the child.
Madison didn’t know the children at all, but when she heard them crying, she felt her heart squeezing.
She quietly walked up to the tall man. She asked, “Do you need help?”
As soon as she said that, she wondered if she was seeing things, but she saw the man freezing.
The man had his back to her, and he was wearing a mask as well. She couldn’t see his expression.
She explained in a kind tone, “Don’t misunderstand, sir. I just saw you taking care of two children alone, so I thought you might need a hand.”
The man remained silent, but the child in the stroller was crying even louder now.
Madison’s attention was drawn to the baby.
In the milky white stroller was a baby girl wearing a pink jumpsuit. She was crying so hard that her face was all wrinkly. Her tender face was filled with a pitiful look.
Madison hastily picked the baby up, and the man didn’t stop her.
“Good girl, are you feeling hungry? Be good and don’t cry.”
Her voice seemed to have an enchanting allure. The baby who was wailing just now instantly stopped crying.
The baby had probably been crying for too long. She now leaned in Madison’s embrace, sobbing quietly.
It was only then that Madison saw the child’s face. Her features were very exquisite, and her eyes were huge and round.
Clear teardrops still hung on her long and thick eyelashes.
The baby was very pretty.
But for some reason, Madison felt that she had seen the baby somewhere before.
The baby seemed to have thought of something, and she started smiling through her tears. There was a shallow dimple on her left cheek. It wasn’t very obvious thanks to her baby fat.
Returning to her senses, Madison hastily apologized, “Sorry, I was so anxious that I picked your child up. She’s not crying anymore, though.”
The man beside her stared at her for a long while. He suddenly asked, “Do you not recognize me anymore?”
The man’s voice was low, and he sounded as if he was torn.
It was a very small voice, so small that Madison thought she was hearing things.
Thinking that she was imagining things, Madison looked at the man with a curious gaze. “Sir, did you say something?”
The man glanced around them warily. “This isn’t a good place to talk. Let’s talk somewhere else.”
Madison could hear him this time. “Do we know each other?”
The man turned around. Every part of his body was covered except for his eyes.
Somehow, he gave off a dangerous feeling.
A look of confusion flashed across the man’s eyes. But soon, he said again, “I’ll be waiting for you in the café on the seventh floor. Come alone, and don’t tell anyone about this.”
When he took the child from Madison’s arms, he said again, “I’ll tell you the whole truth.”
As soon as the baby left Madison’s embrace, she began crying again. The man stuffed the children into his jacket. Then, he loaded the baby items he had picked out onto the stroller.
After that, he rushed toward the counter to pay for the items.
A bodyguard came over as well. “What did that man say to you, Mrs. Williams?”
Madison didn’t remember what had happened between her and that man. Still, she instinctively chose not to betray him.
“He was taking care of two children on his own, and he seemed to be struggling, so I helped him out. He was thanking me.”
Cyril said with a stern expression, “Mrs. Williams, that man looks a little suspicious. Please stay away from him, and don’t approach any strangers recklessly. We’ll leave right after picking out the items.”
“Alright.”
Madison averted her gaze from the man at the counter. She felt a little nervous. The man said that he would be waiting for her at the café.
Should she go, or should she not?
Madison could see that the man knew her, but he had covered himself up on purpose with his outfit. He didn’t seem like a normal person at all, and danger emanated from him.
But it was this creepy man who was holding two babies in his arms. It formed quite a stark contrast.
If he was a kidnapper, no kidnapper would willingly buy so many clothes for the children.
Madison glanced at the price tags. The clothes cost hundreds of dollars each. The stroller was also filled with diapers and infant formula.
The items in the stroller would total up to thousands of dollars at least. No kidnapper would spend that much money on children.
The babies were still crying, but the man didn’t look impatient at all. He even took out two pacifiers from his pocket.
The pacifiers were sealed in sterile bags. This meant that the man had sanitized them before setting out.
He stuffed the pacifiers into the babies’ mouths, and the crying finally stopped.
Madison saw the two children sprawling on the man’s shoulders, one on each shoulder. Trails of tears still hung on their chubby cheeks, yet to be dried.
Their round and large eyes were looking in her direction. Their noses were red, and they were so adorable that they looked like two kittens.
Madison felt something odd about it. Babies more than three months old could be carried vertically.
