“What? Bring them away?”
Serina, who was cooking, was confused.
“You are an idiot! Derek should have arranged for someone to pick up the child, right? He asked me to come here for nothing!” Ernest complained.
If a big star like him went to kindergarten to pick up children, he would have to be fully armed. If someone saw him, he would definitely be on the headlines again!
“He didn’t tell me to have someone to pick up the children.” Serina was confused.
“Then hurry up and call him and ask if he was the one who arranged it!”
“Alright.”
After hanging up the phone, Serina immediately called Hayden. This time, Derek was on a business trip to the United States. He did not take Hayden with him but took the other secretaries.
Firstly, Hayden and Serina were more familiar with each other. They left Hayden for Serina to help her. Secondly, Hayden was in charge of Derek and Serina’s wedding. There were many things that he could not leave.
Hayden quickly picked up the phone, “Mrs. Lambert, What’s the matter?”
“Did Derek ask you to send someone to pick up Cherry and Blueberry?”
“No, Mr. Darion said that I will listen to your instructions about the children. If you need it, I will pick it up. You didn’t call me. How could I pick up the two ladies?”
“He didn’t arrange it?!”
Only then did Serina start to get nervous.
“No.”
“No!” Serina immediately hung up and untied her apron. She ignored Jessica, who was still in the study and ran out alone.
As she drove, she called Ernest, “Ernest! Who picked up Cherry and Blueberry? Ask the teacher.”
“Okay!”
“I’ll be right there!”
Hanging up the phone, Serina quickly stepped on the accelerator. Just as she was about to rush to school, her phone rang.
She saw the unfamiliar number on the screen and immediately picked up the phone.
Cherry’s voice came from the phone inside immediately, “Mommy!”
“Cherry!”
A voice came from the receiver, “Serina, are you looking for your precious daughter now?”
“Who are you?!”
“Can’t you recognize my voice?”
Serina asked hesitantly, “Are you Zoe?”
“I can’t believe you are so sensitive to my voice.”
Serina was not sensitive to Zoe’s voice. Her first reaction was that this person was Zoe!
When Derek mentioned Zoe’s father’s death and Webber Group’s bankruptcy, she felt that something was going to happen!
“Zoe! What do you want to do?”
“I don’t want to do anything. Serina, I believe Derek has already told you that Webber Group has gone bankrupt and my parents have passed away. I am now a poor man. People like me can do anything.”
“Zoe, I have no enmity with you. Why did you kidnap my daughter?”
“No enmity? Serina, don’t you feel guilty saying this?” Zoe snorted coldly on the other side, “I don’t want to talk too much with you. Serina, you go to the Southern Suburbs alone.”
“Do not hurt my daughter.”
“I will not hurt them if you obey me. However, your daughter is really a little disobedient. If it takes so long or if you do not obey me, I don’t know if I will attack them.”
“Zoe, you are going too far!”
“Am I going too far? Or are you and Derek going too far? Let me tell you, Serina, if you dare to call the police or bring someone over, I will kill them immediately!”
“I will go alone and won’t call the police. Don’t hurt them!” Serina parked the car aside.
“I am in an abandoned factory. Serina, if I see an extra person, I will shoot your lovely daughters!”
Zoe said the last word “shot” in an extremely sinister manner.
“Alright!”
Serina immediately started the engine and turned the car.
“Then I’ll hang up the phone.” When Serina was about to hang up the phone, Zoe spoke again.
“Don’t hang up! Put me on speaker.”
“Are you kidding me? I’m driving! Are you talking to me while driving?”
“Why can’t you do it for your daughter? It will take a long time to drive from your place to my place. Do you want me to give you time to call for reinforcements?”
Serina gritted her teeth. Zoe was meticulous!
“Don’t hang up. I will let your daughters talk to you every ten minutes. Even if they die, it’s not like you didn’t hear them.”
Serina had no choice but to agree.
Since the call had not been hung up, it was impossible for her to call others and tell them about her situation.
In fact, Serina could not guess what Zoe was thinking. Zoe first asked her to go to the Southern Suburbs, and then the Northern Suburbs.
She went across half of the city, and the place she was asked to go was desolate. Even if she wanted to find someone to help, it was impossible!
When it was almost dark, Serina finally arrived at an abandoned factory near the eastern suburbs, following Zoe’s instructions.
It was already dark. She saw the abandoned factory had no lights from afar.
She mustered her courage and walked over.
“Cherry! Blueberry!” She shouted twice. There was no one inside.
She walked to the door of the factory and gently pushed the door open. As soon as she pushed the door open, she was suddenly kicked in the back. Serina fell directly to the ground.
Zoe pressed her to the ground and pressed a pistol against her head, “If you move again, your head will bloom!”
It was unknown whether it was because of being a mother, Serina was getting bolder and bolder.
“I won’t move!”
Zoe tied Serina’s hand and pulled her up from the ground.
At this time, the lights in the abandoned factory finally turned on. She clearly saw Cherry and Blueberry tied tightly to a chair.
“Zoe! They are still so young. Can you do it? Let go of them!” Serina shouted at Zoe!
“Let go? What a joke!” Zoe kicked Serina to the two children.
Serina looked at her two daughters’ crying faces and hurriedly comforted them, “Cherry, Blueberry, don’t cry. Mommy is here!”
Cherry and Blueberry had their mouths sealed by tape and were crying, unable to speak.
“Zoe, what do you want to do?”
“What do I want to do? Of course, I want to use you guys as hostages and lure Derek.”
