“Harvey, you just wait for us in G. We’ll be there soon okay?”
“Yes!” Harvey nodded without even thinking, then glanced at Abbie inserting a general look, “Mummy, you really don’t have to worry, Auntie Abbie’s been very good to me!”
Abbie nearly vomited blood again, wondering if the little brat was doing it on purpose or not.
Harvey hung up the phone as he spoke, kirk Burne didn’t even get a chance to pick up.
Gritting his teeth in hidden annoyance, “What did your daddy say to you?”
“He said he’d come and get me, so I don’t have to worry.”
A pang of mixed feelings crossed kirk Burne’s face, “And when did he say he’d come?”
“Right now!”
“……”
Abbie’s heart thudded and her hand squeezed a few inches tighter, “Is he already in G now, or is he getting ready to come over now?”
“I don’t know.” Harvey shook his head innocently before yawning, “What are you guys asking that for good reason?”
“Nothing.”
Abbie quickly pushed down the unease in her mind and an affectionate smile followed on her face, “Harvey, did your daddy say anything else besides that?”
“No.”
“Really?”
Abbie looked tentative.
Harvey pouted unhappily, “So what exactly do you have to do to believe that?”
Seeing this, kirk Burne couldn’t help but give her a nudge, “Well, stop asking so many questions, take the kids back to bed and then meet me in the study!”
Harvey looked sleepy but braced himself, “I’m not sleepy, I’m going to wait here for Mummy.”
Abbie didn’t say anything and carried him straight upstairs, then put him on the bed and said, “You have to rest whether you’re sleepy or not, I’ll wake you up when your mummy and daddy come.”
“But how are you going to make me trust you?”
Abbie looked slightly offended, “Why don’t you trust me?”
“Because you’re the one who tied me up here and tried to threaten daddy and mummy.”
Harvey’s voice was small, but there was nothing wrong with what he said, and Abbie was afraid that he would say the same thing in front of Logan Brown, and immediately tensed up.
A curt smile followed, “It’s not a kidnapping, it’s just a game I’m playing with you.”
The little one bristled with disgust, “Aunty Abbie, you’re so old, why are you still so childish?”
She’s old!
She’s childish!
Abbie’s face turned blue and purple, she wanted to strangle the brat in front of her.
But then she thought of her own life, but she didn’t dare to do anything.
Anyway, he could only smile and nod his head, “Yes, I was too childish, so I can only hope you can forgive me.”
“If that’s the case, then forget it.” Harvey said listlessly.
Abbie had managed to trick him, and with a quick flash of triumph on her face, her hand fell to pat the top of his head as she said, “Then get some rest, and I promise to let you see them as soon as they arrive.”
“Okay.”
Harvey dutifully closed his eyes.
Abbie waited for a while, only relieved when she heard his even breathing come out.
When she came out again she went straight into the study, where kirk Burne was already waiting for her.
Seeing her father’s rare anger, Abbie didn’t dare to speak first, so she just stayed quiet.
It was only after a long time that kirk Burne finally turned around, “Abbie ……”
“Dad.”
kirk Burne nodded, “I want you to prepare yourself this time, whether it’s a beating or a scolding or whatever punishment you have to endure, do you understand?”
Abbie looked at his serious look and instantly flashed panic, “Dad, what do you want?”
Abbie’s heart instantly went up in the air at the thought that he might be going to do something.
kirk Burne shook his head helplessly, “Abbie, it’s the only way I can get Logan Brown to let off steam now, don’t worry, as long as he gets his way he won’t blame you.”
“But what if it doesn’t go your way!?”
“Then it’s let God decide!”
“Dad, I don’t understand, Logan Brown wouldn’t dare to tear us apart even if he had the means to do so.
“That’s because you’re short of insight!”
Abbie was not impressed, “It’s not that you’re short-sighted, it’s that you’re getting older and more afraid of things!”
“What did you say!?”
kirk Burne’s eyes went round with a look that could have swallowed her alive!
Abbie immediately lowered her head, “I …… am telling you the truth, you should know that Logan Brown is a businessman and he has his ways, but we are not in the business of fighting, so why are we afraid of him?”
If there was a real fight, there were so many of them, what were they afraid of?
“Afraid of what?”
kirk Burne thought she was joking or not taking Logan Brown seriously.
“Logan Brown can just get us killed just by having connections in the mall you understand! Just the fact that he has one of the things I’ve done over the years on hand would be enough to kill me a thousand times over, what do you think I’m afraid of!?”
He was getting old, he was starting to chicken out, but he wasn’t afraid for no reason.
With Logan Brown’s connections and money, it would be easy to find out what he was up to, and once that information was in the hands of the police, he would either die or live in hiding for the rest of his life!
He’d learned to live comfortably and couldn’t imagine losing everything he had.
Abbie woke up like a dream, “So you think that Logan Brown is going to give you the slip?”
“What else do you think!”
“I don’t know. ……”
Abbie twitched her lips and looked at him nervously.
kirk Burne gave her a cross look, “Let’s all wait until the people arrive first!”
As soon as the words left his mouth, the doorbell rang.
It was late at night and Abbie was frightened by the thought of the midnight bell, and the phone in the living room was ringing as if it was urging her on.
Kirk Burne glanced at Abbie, who was too timid to move, and rolled his eyes, “Go downstairs and ask the housekeeper to open the door! Don’t just stand there!”
“Yes ……”
Abbie was pulled back to her senses, not daring to hesitate.
Outside the door at that moment, Elena Bush’s nervously squeezed palms.
Worried eyes fell on the man, “Logan Brown, is nothing really going to happen this time?”
“Yeah.” Logan Brown held her forehead, “I said I’d be strong enough to protect you and the baby, so don’t be afraid ……”
He’d been able to protect her and the baby long ago, no one would dare step on his head!
