"Ah!" Alice was thrown onto the leather seat, making her dizzy.
"Follow me, got it?" The shadow pressed down on her.
Alice smelled the strong scent of danger emanating from Adam and felt anxious.
"What are you doing?"
"Why ask a question you already know the answer to?"
"We can't do this..." Alice didn't expect him to do this in the car, with the driver in front of them.
Adam glanced at the driver in front of them and said, "Xiao Chen."
The driver, Xiao Chen, immediately got out of the car, closed the door, and walked across the street.
Alice bit her lip and closed her eyes, feeling humiliated.
She knew that Adam wouldn't let her go so easily.
what about the children in the house
It was absolutely not possible!
Alice opened her eyes, sat up, and climbed onto Adam's broad shoulders, kissing his thin lips hard.
Adam's black eyes were slightly stunned, then he took control of the situation, pressing his thin lips back and sneering, "You're daydreaming."
Alice knew that he saw through her thoughts, "What did I do wrong? I just hope you won't make things too difficult for me..."
As she got out of the car and the door was about to close, she heard his low, intimidating voice, "Don't forget to take your medicine."
Alice's expression froze, and she tentatively asked, "What if I get pregnant?"
"Don't even think about it."
Alice didn't say anything and walked into the residential area without looking back.
The car window was half-open, allowing for ventilation in the cabin. Soon, all the smells inside dissipated. Adam held a cigarette between his fingers, his face slightly tilted, and his hawk-like black eyes fixed on the slender figure. He had no intention of making her life comfortable. Time was on his side, and he was in no rush.
"Mr. Davis, are we leaving now?" Chen asked as he got into the car."Yes," Adam replied, throwing the cigarette out the window after only two puffs.
Alice cursed inwardly as she climbed the stairs. This man was insane! And he expected her to buy the medicine herself afterwards! The medicine was harmful to her body, but she didn't want to get pregnant either. Adam's words sent shivers down her spine. Giving birth was like seeking death. What if she had already given birth to the child? Fortunately, he didn't notice anything unusual tonight.
Returning to the house, she saw her children reading picture books in the living room, and her heart softened. "Where's grandma?" the three little ones ran over and asked.
"Grandma has something to do and will be back later," Alice replied, looking at her adorable children. They were her only weakness, and she couldn't let anything happen to them.
Alice stayed over that night. Adam was satisfied, and he wouldn't come to her mother's house. Otherwise, it wouldn't be a matter of letting her go out, but rather catching her off guard.
Around seven or eight o'clock, Lily asked from the bed, "Mom, what does daddy look like? Do we look like him?"
Alice looked at the faces of her two sons and said, "You don't look alike. You look more like Mommy…""Mommy, do you have any pictures of Daddy?" Isaac asked.
"I want to see..." Kevin said.
Alice didn't have any pictures of Adam, but not getting them for the children would definitely make them wonder. If they already knew the concept of "Daddy" at two years old, what about when they were older?
"When Mommy has time, we'll go find pictures of your Daddy," Alice patted their little heads, "Go to sleep, Mommy is here with you."
"Mommy hasn't slept with us for a long time!" Lily snuggled into her mother's arms.
Alice looked at the three little ones clinging to her like piglets and felt a pang in her heart.
Yes, it had been a long time...
After the children fell asleep, Alice still couldn't sleep a wink.
She had no news of Mia, how could she sleep peacefully?
And the appearance of Adam today was not simple.
This man was using his actions to tell her that even without a locator, he could still control her whereabouts.As long as he wanted to...
Alice spent the whole night in a daze. When she opened her eyes, it was still dark outside and the children were sleeping in a twisted mess.
She got up from the pile of children, left the room, and walked towards Mia's room.
After entering the room, the bed was still neatly made and no one had touched it. Alice became more and more anxious as she thought about it. Even if Mia had gone out to work, it didn't make sense for her to not answer her phone. What if something had happened to her? Was she just waiting around like this? Alice immediately thought about calling the police. However, before she could even dial the number, her phone rang. Seeing that it was Mia's number, Alice breathed a sigh of relief and answered, "Mom, why haven't you been answering my calls? I've been so worried! Where are you?"
"Are you Mia's daughter?"
Alice was taken aback, "Who are you..."
"I'm from the police station. Your mother is suspected of murder and we have concrete evidence. We will be arresting her. As her daughter, you have the right to know."
"What...what? You must have made a mistake! How could my mom have committed murder?" Alice couldn't believe it and thought it was absurd.
"The police don't make mistakes."
After sending her three children to school, Alice took a taxi and rushed to the police station. She found the police officer in charge of the case and he told her, "Mia confessed to killing your father, Ruan Fuzhong. We went to the scene and found his bones in a deep pit at the foot of Yin Yang Mountain. We have done a DNA test and confirmed that it was him."
Alice's eyes became teary and she looked at the police officer in a daze. "You don't keep in touch with your father, do you? Otherwise, you wouldn't have failed to notice Ruan Fuzhong's disappearance. Or did you know about it earlier and were protecting the criminal?" The police officer began to interrogate her.
"I..." Alice felt like she couldn't even speak.
She stopped contacting Ruan Fuzhong since she joined the Davis Family.
At that time, Ruan Fuzhong always came to ask her for money.
Where could she, a child, get money from?
He even took her aunt's pocket money."My father is a gambler, a heavy drinker, and very irresponsible towards his children and family. My mother couldn't stand him and left, and I was later taken in by my aunt. He asked me for money a few times, but when he couldn't get any, he stopped coming. I tried to contact him afterwards, but it never went through... I didn't know he was in trouble, I thought he went back to gambling again."
