Chapter 836 Tony Is Taken Away

Jolin knocked on the car window. When Amelia rolled it down, Jolin said, “I’m sorry for being late, Mrs. Clinton. You must be shocked.” Amelia studied the drenched Jolin and opened the door for her.

Jolin quickly got in and drove the car toward the men in black who were armed with guns. If it were not for the cars surrounding them, she would have driven off.

Suddenly, the men started shooting at Jolin’s car. Amelia pulled Tony into her embrace and covered his ears, comforting gently, “Don’t be scared, Tony. Mommy’s here.”

Tony leaned into her embrace and responded sweetly, “I’m not afraid, Mommy. I’ll protect you, too.” At first, Amelia was rather worried about him. However, his words made her smile, and the fear in her dissipated a little. Jolin maneuvered the car around the narrow space to knock into the men, causing the armed kidnappers to dodge frantically.

When Jolin finally stopped the car, Amelia witnessed a man aiming a gun at Oscar and firing it without hesitation. Amelia’s eyes widened, and she cried helplessly, “Oscar!” Hopelessness, sorrow, and pain flooded her gaze.

In the next second, she passed out due to the overwhelming shock.

Tiffany shouted, “Amelia! Amelia!”

By the time Amelia woke up, she was already at home. There was no one else next to her bed apart from Tiffany.

Amelia quickly sat up and grabbed Tiffany’s arm, asking anxiously, “Tiff, where’s Oscar? How is he?”

Tiffany comforted, “Calm down, Babe. He’s fine. Don’t worry. He’s just gone out with the others to pursue the kidnappers who escaped. Jolin was worried about you, so she sent you home first.”

Amelia heaved a sigh of relief. Still in disbelief, she asked, “But I saw someone shooting him with my own eyes.”

Tiffany, too, found it unbelievable as she recalled the earlier incident. She never expected Oscar’s skills to have improved so much.

“Babe, how well do you know your husband?” Tiffany asked suddenly.

Confused by Tiffany’s question, Amelia asked, “Why do you ask that?”

Tiffany studied Amelia before suddenly hopping around excitedly. “Babe, you have no idea how amazing Oscar was! I saw him dodging the bullet with my very own eyes. The bullet shot into the chest of the kidnapper’s partner, and that’s it. He died. It’s my first time seeing someone bleed to death on the spot. Good thing you fainted before that. Otherwise, you would have gotten the shock of your life. Anyway, your husband is really cool!”

Amelia eyed her dubiously. “Really? Is he that great?”

Tiffany rolled her eyes, saying, “Babe, you obviously don’t pay enough attention to your husband. How do you not know how great his skills are? Anyway, it makes sense now how all the bodyguards who work under him are so skillful. His presence alone is enough to intimidate his subordinates.”

Amelia merely smiled in response.

As she got off the bed, she asked, “Where’s Tony?”

“He’s sleeping in his room.”

“I’m going to check on him.”

To Amelia’s surprise, all she saw was Jolin sleeping on the bed alone when she entered the room. Panic instantly flashed past her eyes. She hurried over to Jolin and shook the latter, asking anxiously, “Jolin, where’s Tony?”

“Isn’t Mr. Anthony beside—” Before Jolin could finish, she saw the empty space beside her. She bolted upright and glanced around, saying nervously, “Mr. Anthony was sleeping on the bed just now. Why is he missing? How did he go missing?”

Looking utterly hopeless, Amelia said, “Jolin, please stop kidding around. Hand Tony to me, or I’m going to be mad.”

Jolin glanced at Amelia guiltily and gibbered, “Mrs. Clinton, Mr. Anthony was sleeping on the bed a while ago. I don’t know how he disappeared when I only just fell asleep. I’m usually a light sleeper. I-I… Mrs. Clinton, please give me some time! I’ll bring Mr. Anthony back.”
