“I ……” Abbie always felt that something was wrong and didn’t dare to answer straightforwardly, but just spoke weakly, “I do know, but what does it matter?”
kirk Burne was so angry that he raised his hand again and wanted to slap her again.
But Abbie ducked too quickly for him to catch.
“Dad, just say what you have to say, don’t try to solve everything with violence!”
“You have the nerve to say that, you indisputable thing?”
“Dad ……”
Abbie blinked, her eyes slightly red, “I’m your daughter, if even you won’t help me, who else will?”
“Then get your ass over there right now and apologize to that child! And then send that child back to me respectfully, and you better not make Logan Brown angry, or ……”
Abbie was a little upset, “Or what? It’s just Logan Brown, at best he’ll deal with me, what are you afraid of?”
“That’s because you don’t know what he’s up to yet!”
“What exactly has he done that you’re so scared of?”
Something felt wrong in Abbie, her eyes fell on kirk Burne, and vaguely she too felt an element of unease rushing around somewhere in her mind.
“Don’t you know? Once upon a time Logan Brown was in a wheelchair for a few years because of a car accident, and then because a woman taunted him, Logan Brown broke her leg alive and ended up torturing her beyond recognition, and the fact that he could even ignore his own stepmother and sister whether they lived or died …… ”
“Those are just hearsay, but who really knows what really happened?”
“But all those people’s deaths exist! Even Elena Bush’s father and sister got killed all the same, not to mention you, an outsider who kidnapped his son!”
Logan Brown’s cold-bloodedness was directed at everyone, but everyone also knew that Elena Bush and his children were the bottom line he would never allow to be touched!
“Dad ……”
Abbie started to panic at his words, but smiled bravely, “You’re joking, Logan Brown is just a businessman, if he did these things, how could no one be on to him?”
“That’s what’s so great about him isn’t it?” kirk Burne looked at her meaningfully.
Abbie’s head exploded with a look of helplessness.
She was almost crying out in fear, “Dad, you, you have to help me, you’re all I have to help me!”
“I’ll help you? How can I help?”
kirk Burne pushed her away, “I said the best thing to do is for you to go and tell the boy right now that you didn’t do anything to him and not to scare him!”
It would be best to send the child back in the end without damaging him in any way.
Abbie nodded and shook her head again, “But what if Logan Brown really wants to deal with me?”
She looked at him prayerfully, hoping her father would speak up and say he would help her.
But reality made her desperate.
kirk Burne shook his head, “If you just mess with Kent, I can help you, he’s still manageable in my eyes, and the consequences will be a toss-up at best, but I can at least protect you, as for Logan Brown ……”
He was so shifty that no one could know what was on his mind.
Abbie’s legs almost went limp, and all that kept swirling in her head was his warning in her ear!
“If anything happens to him, I will never let you go!”
Abbie snapped to attention and looked around, “Where’s the baby?”
“Just been sent back to his room for a bath, he’s been lying in the car all day and a bath would be a relief.”
“I’m going to check on him now!”
Abbie sniffled and turned to go upstairs.
kirk Burne stared at her back for a moment, half a second before turning back to the butler beside him and saying, “Go on, call me Logan Brown, I want to speak to him personally!”
“Logan Brown?”
“Yes!”
The man’s knife-like eyes darted instantly, “I don’t want to have to repeat myself a second time!”
“Yes!”
The butler didn’t dare delay, and hastily went to pick up the landline which also looked up Logan Brown’s number and dialed it immediately.
“Hello, is this Mr. Brown?”
“Yes.”
The cold reply made the butler word feel a chill down his back, not daring to hesitate, the face was busy continuing, “Hello , our master is looking for you ……”
kirk Burne heard the movement an indisputable glare at him, then took the phone.
“Sir Brown, this is Abbie’s father.”
Apparently the man wasn’t half surprised, “Sir Burne? Nice to meet you.”
kirk Burne knew to himself that he had guessed exactly what his call was about.
Now that he knew, he didn’t want to beat around the bush and said straight out, “Mr. Brown, I know that you must already know that your son is here with me.”
“Yes, I know.”
“Then ……”
“I want to see my son!”
kirk Burne’s heart fluttered and he glanced at the butler, “Go and bring the boy down.”
“Yes.”
kirk Burne watched him go and lowered his stance a few notches, “Sir Brown, I hope you know that this time it was all because Abbie didn’t know any better that she offended you, I had no intention of antagonizing you.”
Logan Brown smiled coldly, “I don’t think she would have been so arrogant if Mr Burne hadn’t been Miss Burne’s backer, would she?”
“Abbie is young, that’s why she doesn’t know any better, and I’m calling specifically to apologise.”
“I don’t know if that’s true or not until I hear the child’s voice.”
Elena Bush was frantic, but Logan Brown continued to behave as usual, with a nonchalance that almost made her want to take action.
Logan Brown squeezed her palm, signalling that she didn’t need to panic.
Harvey was soon ushered down by Abbie, and instead of his previous fear, the little man seemed so calm that one could almost forget he was only four years old.
Harvey was half-expecting to see Kirk Burne handing over the microphone until Elena Bush’s voice came to his ears and he shouted out happily, “Daddy, Mummy!”
“Harvey ……”
Elena Bush covered her lips and nearly cried out in excitement.
Harvey immediately panicked and said soothingly, “Mummy, don’t cry, I’m fine, plus Aunty Abbie is very good to me!”
Auntie Abbie!
Abbie almost turned pale as she listened.
But the one who started the conversation acted as if she hadn’t heard anything, her little face was all happy, “Mummy, Harvey misses you so much, when are you coming to take me home.”
The words of the little one who didn’t care at all about his situation at the moment made Elena Bush’s nose tingle.
