The reason why Old Mr. Henderson had this done was to take the opportunity of the missing child to destroy the relationship between Edward and Vivian, thus forcing the two to separate.
Peter still can’t understand why Old Mr. Henderson would let Edward and Vivian separate.
Edward a cavity of anger, fists clenched, bone joints click click click, the back of the hand veins rippling, the whole person on the verge of a rampage.
He knew that since Peter was so sure, someone reliable must have gotten the news from the old man.
It’s just that the old man’s approach really made Edward angry!
Harlee touched her nose and raised an eyebrow, somewhat sympathetic to Edward’s plight.
With a sigh, he said, “What must be done now is to find Ashtyn one step faster than Old Mr. Henderson.”
That being said, where can you find a child in a sea of people?
At night, several people made simple arrangements and chose to use the most primitive way, let Edward list all the ‘enemies’, and then let people go to investigate one by one.
After all, now there is no clue, can not find the exit is like a headless fly, the difficulty increases not a star and a half point.
Edward listed all the people in the study, and Harlee and Peter did the screening and arranged for someone to investigate.
By the time everything was done, it was already late at night at 2:00.
The three of them went to their respective rooms to rest.
Edward stared at his exhausted body back to the bedroom, looking at the person lying on the bed, the person was asleep, tears that had not yet dried on the eyelashes, and the pillow was wet.
The eyes are as red and swollen as they were yesterday.
The whole day with tears, the eye damage is very great, he is very heartbroken Vivian, and secretly blame themselves, feel incompetent.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, looking down at the sleeping Vivian, only to see her eyebrows furrowed, the inextricable sadness between her brows.
“Ashtyn … Ashtyn …”
Vivian murmured, her body shivered violently, frightened in general.
“Oooh … Ashtyn, no … don’t hurt my baby, Ashtyn, ah, no!”
She had some kind of nightmare, murmured a few words, and then with a scream, woke up from her dream and sat up.
Upon seeing Edward sitting in front of her, she gripped his shoulders and tears came to her eyes, “I had a dream that Ashtyn was killed by kidnappers, oooh … I’m going to find Ashtyn!”
“Fool, it’s okay, it was just a bad dream, a nightmare!”
Edward was heartbroken and took her into his arms, holding her tightly, “Don’t be afraid, the dream is the opposite, the opposite. It means our child is fine.”
He was soothing Vivian without noticing that his voice was trembling a bit as he spoke.
The child could not be found for a day, and he would be worried along with it. It’s hard to tell, but how can you not worry?
It’s just that more often than not, he can’t show his emotions too much in front of Vivian, which would make her worry along with him.
“Oooh … no, it wasn’t. The dream was too real, and Ashtyn was in a crumbling house, starving and wailing, and those kidnappers had no patience for him, and then … then … oooh … no. I’m going to get Ashtyn.”
The images in the dream were too real, and Vivian felt shivers when she thought about it.
At that moment, he pushed Edward away, lifted the bedding and ran out towards the outside.
“Vivian, where are you going?”
Edward called out and immediately went after the woman, dragging her back.
Who knows the woman turned around, backhanded a slap directly on his face, “You let go of me! The child has been missing for three days, you always tell me it’s okay, it’s okay, but now you don’t even know where the child is. You only know to wait at home, wait! When will there be results? Have you ever really cared about the child?”
She growled hysterically, then grabbed the door.
A heavy slap, hitting Edward’s cheek burning pain.
But the pain is not as bad as the heartache.
How could he not care about children?
He also wanted to go out and look for the child, but there were so many people, where was he going to look?
Without a goal, a blind search will not help at all.
Moreover, from the disappearance of children to now, just he and Peter, Harlee sent as many as a thousand people, but until now there is not a clue.
Sufficient to say it all.
Edward didn’t get angry with Vivian because of her slap, she knew how much Ashtyn meant to Vivian and how important she was to her.
In the middle of the night, she had another nightmare, and it was normal for her to break down from the psychological and physical shock.
Edward ruffled the messy hair on his forehead and followed him out, “Vivian, Vivian where are you going? It’s already late!”
He yelled.
The two were so loud that they alerted several people in the villa.
Two room lights came on and several people stepped out.
The first to follow out were Peter and Adriana.
Adriana, with her padded jacket draped over her shoulders, stood in the hallway and looked just in time to see Vivian running out, with Edward in pursuit.
“Where is Vivian going with this?”
She was worried and immediately went down the stairs.
Seeing this, Peter took her arm, “Adriana, you are already not well, you can’t toss and turn like this, you go to your room first, I’ll go to …”
“Vivian is my sister!”
Adriana growled, broke away from Peter’s hand and hurried down the stairs.
It is.
For her, Vivian’s presence was too important.
Since she was a child, her relationship with Anne and Theresa was more than anything else, and she once considered them sisters who were like brothers and sisters, only to be betrayed again and again.
After the tragic betrayal, she has no trust in everyone except Peter, Harlee, Raylan, Vivian and the others.
So she couldn’t stand by and watch Vivian being driven crazy and ignore it.
Peter frowned and turned into the bedroom to help Adriana get her coat.
And at that moment, Harlee and Eliza came out.
“Eliza, don’t come out, the baby in your belly is important. Hurry back and rest, I’ll go check.”
Harlee said to Eliza with great unease.
Although Eliza was uneasy, she knew she couldn’t help much and was worried that she would cause them trouble, so she nodded, “Okay. Then you must persuade Vivian and Edward well, better find a way to help them find the baby, really … is too poor.”
She is about to become a mother, although she can not share Vivian’s feelings, but more or less is able to understand her feelings.
“Don’t worry wife, trust me.”
Harlee pulled her into the room and patted the bed, “Go to sleep, I’m going out to check.”
“Well, hurry up and get going.”
“Okay.”
As Harlee walked out of the bedroom, Peter came downstairs clutching his heavy coat.
The two of them rushed out of the living room, only to hear Adriana said loudly to Vivian at the entrance of the villa: “It’s freezing cold, where are you going to find? honey They sent thousands of people, are those people unable to resist you? If you toss yourself, what will you let Ashtyn do in the future?”
“Oooh … let go of me, Ms. Hale, you let go of me, oooh … I’m going to get my baby, I want Ashtyn. oooh, you should know… … I’m a single parent, my mom was my only hope, but she left me too. I can’t take Ashtyn’s disappearance anymore, not … not … oooh …”
