Chapter 552

In the room, Celia was lying beside the bed, looking haggard, with tears that had dried up on her face.

Compared to her, Naomi seemed much calmer. Sitting on the couch, her expression remained

composed. From last night until now, they had been locked up here. Not only did those people not give

them food, but they also didn't even send them a drop of water. After an unknown amount of time, the

door of the room was opened.

Celia stood up abruptly, looking vigilant. "What are you guys trying to do?"

The man who came in didn't say anything. He just grabbed her arm and walked out. Celia struggled

desperately, crying, "Let me go! Let me go!"

Naomi stood up, then said coldly, "Are you guys bandits? Is that what Gordon usually tells you to do?"

The man was somewhat afraid, so he hesitated for a while and let Celia go. Celia trembled with fear,

then immediately hid behind Naomi, holding onto the corner of her clothes tightly. Following that, the

man said, "The baby is sick and can't stop crying, so Old Master Pearson asked us to take her there."

Hearing this, Celia was startled, and just as she was about to go forward and tell them to take her

there, Naomi grabbed her hand. Naomi said, "I was the one taking care of the child, so it's useless for

her to go."

The man hesitated, not knowing what to do for a moment. Naomi continued, "Let her stay here, and I'll

go over."

"But the master ordered that—"

"If he disagrees, you tell him to come to me—if he dares to."

Seeing her acting like this, the man didn't dare to deny her. "Then I'll ask him."

"Stop." Naomi continued, "Bring some food and water here. Three meals a day must be delivered on

time as we are not your prisoners."

The man nodded and left quickly. After he left, Naomi closed the door and whispered to Celia, "After I

go there, you have to be careful by yourself. Their targets are me and the child, so they won't do

anything to harm you."

Celia took her hand and cried anxiously, "Ms. Fletcher, I can't let you go to such a dangerous place! I

—"

Naomi said, "Don't worry, I know what to do. The little baby is still there, and I am his grandma, so I

have to go even if it's dangerous."

"It's all my fault! If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been brought here…"

"Now is not the time to blame yourself. Let's talk about it after leaving here."

On the other side, Gordon listened to his subordinates' report, frowning. He thought for a while before

saying, "Do as she says."

In the room, Celia was lying beside the bed, looking haggard, with tears that had dried up on her face.

Compared to her, Naomi seemed much calmer. Sitting on the couch, her expression remained

composed. From last night until now, they had been locked up here. Not only did those people not give

them food, but they also didn't even send them a drop of water. After an unknown amount of time, the

door of the room was opened.

The man left in response. Then, Gordon looked at the crying little baby who had already fallen asleep

before walking out of the house with the cane.

When the man returned, he brought food and water. Naomi drank some water, but she didn't feel like

eating, so she asked the man to take her to the little baby. Celia looked at her back and gritted her

teeth secretly. Ms. Fletcher was right. No matter what the situation is like, we have to leave here first. I

still have to tell President Pearson that Ms. Fletcher and the child are here.

Celia wiped the tears from her face and started to eat. Only when she regained her strength could she

find a way to leave…

The moment Naomi saw the child, her heart which had been full of worries finally felt better. She went

up to check on the little baby's condition. Then, she proceeded to ask the nanny next to him questions.

After confirming that he just had a fever, she breathed a sigh of relief.

It didn't take long for the little baby to wake up. When he opened his eyes and saw Naomi beside him,

he just pursed his mouth. He looked aggrieved, but he didn't cry. Naomi picked him up and put the tip

of the bottle handed over by the nanny into his mouth. The little baby was very hungry, so he held the

bottle and drank in big gulps. Soon, half a bottle of milk was gone.

Naomi held him and walked around the room for a while. Soon, the little baby fell asleep again while

clutching her clothes tightly. The nanny stepped forward, wanting to take the child back. "Give him to

me."

Naomi dodged sideways, frowned, and said coldly, "Don't touch him."

The nanny could only retreat back in embarrassment. After the little baby fell into a deep sleep, Naomi

put him into the crib, stayed by his side, and didn't leave. Except for the doctor, she didn't let anyone

from the Pearson Family get close.

…

In a black Rolls Royce, Jonathan looked at all the photos uploaded on the phone. "President Pearson,

everything has been sorted out."

Aidan closed his eyes, and said, "Give it to her for confirmation. After confirmation, find a way to

contact the person and ask for the exact location."

"Yes."

Jonathan stayed silent for a while before adding, "President Pearson, Mrs. Pearson asked about you

this afternoon. I said you were in a meeting to deal with some small matters in the company."

Aidan slowly opened his eyes. "What else did she say?"

"Nothing much. She probably doesn't want to disturb you, so she didn't ask any more questions."

"Where is she now?"

"She went back to the studio in the afternoon, and now she's having dinner with her friends."

Aidan pursed his thin lips slightly, and said after a few seconds, "You ride their car back to the

company."

"Okay."

Jonathan slowed down and pulled over. After he got out of the car, another man came over

immediately and sat in the driver's seat. Subsequently, Aidan took out his phone and dialed Leanna's

number. The call almost went to voicemail when she finally answered.

Leanna said, "Hello?"

Her side was a little noisy and lively.

Aidan said slowly, "What are you eating?"

"I'm eating hot pot with Zoe and Daniel. Are you done yet?"

Aidan pressed his temples hard. "I just finished the meeting."

Leanna said, "Then when will you go home? If you still have things to do, I'll come and find you later."

She seemed to be eating food that was so spicy that she panted a little when she spoke. Aidan could

imagine her expression through the phone. The corner of his lips hooked up as he said, "No need."

"Are you leaving now?"

"Yeah, I'm coming to find you." Aidan looked out the window and added, "I want to eat hot pot."

Leanna replied very straightforwardly, "Okay, then I'll send you the address. You can come here."

"Okay."

After hanging up the phone, he received a message from Leanna within two seconds. Aidan closed his

eyes and there was no expression or warmth on his stern facial features.

Half an hour later, the black Rolls Royce stopped at the entrance of the hot pot restaurant. The

subordinate announced, "President Pearson, we are here."

Aidan looked out the window, and when he was about to get out of the car, he happened to see Leanna

and the others sitting by the window. She was saying something to Zoe, and her little face was flushed

red from the spicy food. Her smile was bright and warm, and she was full of happiness. It seemed like

he hadn't seen her smile like this for a long time.

Aidan fell into a daze when he saw that. A few minutes later, the voice of his subordinate came again.

"President Pearson?"

Aidan leaned back into his seat and said lightly, "Go back."

"Back… where?"

After a moment of silence, Aidan replied, "The company."
