Stephanie shouted and leaped out of her boat, doing a flip mid-air and landing on the other small wooden boat steadily. She immediately wrapped both her arms around her daughter.“Mom!” Stephanie was overwhelmed when she saw her mother. She had been trapped in here for five days, experiencing just how horrible humanity could be. In that instant, she just couldn’t control herself, crying hysterically in her mother’s arms. She then pointed toward Alex. “Mom, kill this bastard for me now!”Stephanie shook her head. “Soraya, mom can’t kill him. And well, I shouldn’t kill him too. He’s your cousin.”“What?” Soraya froze as if she had been struck by lightning.‘Alex is my cousin?’‘But I was raped by him just a while ago!’‘This… this…’‘What do I do? Isn’t this incest?’‘If I’m really impregnated with his child, would the baby be deformed because we’re relatives?’If Alex found out all the messed-up things going on inside her head, he would’ve probably been so frustrated he’d v

She thought to herself, ‘This guy started it, this bastard right here. If he didn’t set the trap here, they wouldn’t have been trapped, and she wouldn’t have lost her innocence.’Thinking about what happened, she felt that part of her body throbbing with pain again.Alex replied nonchalantly, “Now that everything’s ended, I’ll leave first.”“Hold on,” Lexia called after him.“Is there anything else?” Alex asked.“Since I’m here in California, I should go see your mother. Thinking back on those years, the last time I saw her was when she was ten.”Alex narrowed his eyes. “I’m not sure if my mother wants to meet you.”Lexia smiled. “Ask her. I’m certain she’ll agree.”Alex took a glance at her. “I’ll let you know if I have news.”With that, he jumped off the boat into the lake.As for Sky and Anna, they leaped onto a smaller boat and said farewell.***Stephanie was very attentive. She could tell the clothes her daughter was wearing were Alex’s and that her own garment beneat

“This is a huge deal for the Thousand Miles Conglomerate, the first time they’ve ever initiated the emergency state rule since it was created. It hasn’t ever been used before, so I don’t know what happened.”The emergency state rule applied to all current members of the Thousand Miles Conglomerate. Whether it was a fighter, security guard, the average employee, or even a cleaner, they would receive the message.Just when everyone was busy discussing the situation, a search warrant was sent to each employee’s phone.The order had come from the Thousand Miles Conglomerate’s CEO’s office.This meant that the person who sent out the order had to be the Thousand Miles Conglomerate’s CEO, Waltz Fleur.Not only was Zoey’s photo on the warrant, but there was also a prize. It mentioned that if one managed to find her, they'd immediately get a billion dollars in cash. One could search in a team or by themselves. Regardless of identity or status, no questions would be asked as long as the ch

‘In such a public setting, there’s no way Thousand Miles Conglomerate would go back on their words.’This news had also quickly spread around the internet.Everyone’s Instagram feeds, verified accounts, and countless media became like sharks that smelled blood, taking action on their own to spread the news. It was interesting and had a huge impact. More importantly, this would make them money, with many taking action in their own way. Hence, there were enough shock factors to make the headlines on the news.‘When would there ever be such interesting news on the daily?’Soon, this news was linked with the incident of three kidnappers being butchered in broad daylight.The word “kidnappers” started trending on social media as well.At the same time, Disneyland’s director, in the face of Azure and his fierce troops, was completely stunned.He looked at the black mob with fear, panicking and thinking to himself. ‘I’m screwed.

Among the four kidnappers, two died on the spot while the other two were buried under the rumbles.“Dig!” ordered Alex.Hundreds of men in black instantly dug through the road surface, carrying the kidnappers out. Soon after, Zoey, together with the two other girls, was carried out of the tunnel by Alex.“Zoey!” Hailey shouted, hugging Zoey tightly against her chest, her face full of tears.Half an hour of parting ways with her daughter felt like a century to her.Once Zoey had returned safely, the heavy rock upon Alex’s heart was removed.Now, looking at the other two children, he shouted to the crowd. “Who else here lost their child? Come take them back!”His voice was as loud and powerful as a thousand rumbles of thunder.Azure and the others were also shocked. “Who would have thought the kidnappers would take three children in one go and have hidden in such a concealed place? They must have done this countless times.”Not long after, someone stumbled his way through. “That
