Chapter 1213

In the thick of panic, Jamie's voice was shaky, her words stumbling over each other as she dialed 911, "Please, hurry! Someone's been kidnapped, they've taken my friend and there's a child involved..."

As the car sped away, a black cloth was roughly thrown over Mia's head. Her arms were locked around her son Henry, not daring to let go even for a second. Sensing the danger, Henry's little face was buried in his mom's shoulder, tears streaming down as he nursed a swollen cheek from an earlier hit.

The car was being pursued by several other vehicles, but then two cars from the Dark Web swerved and blocked the road, allowing the kidnappers to get away. In a remote area, Mia was dragged out, still clinging to Henry. Blindfolded and sitting in another car, she leaned down, gently touching her son's forehead, "Henry, honey, does it still hurt?"

Henry let out a small whimper in reply. Holding him close, Mia's tears soaked through the cloth over her eyes. "Mommy's going to kiss your little face," she murmured.

Turning to the captors, she asked, "Can I lift this blindfold just a bit to kiss my son?"

"Mrs. Cedillo, you're quite the dreamer," one of them sneered.

Mia replied, "You want to use me against Andre. I'm his confidante, I know secrets you don't. If you want my cooperation, start by cooperating with me."

Suddenly, someone pushed against Mia's forehead again. Seeing this, little Henry swung his arms, trying to fight back. Mia quickly grabbed his tiny hands, afraid he'd anger them, but she couldn't stop his legs. Kicking with all his might, Henry shouted, "Leave my mom alone!"
