Chapter 1399 Serenity tilted her head to look at Zachary and asked him, “Did you guys discuss this long ago? Or did you already know the other party's plot and deliberately used Sonny to lure them?” “We didn’t!” Zachary hurriedly denied it.
“The Buchams only watched Mrs. Newman's moves and noticed that she was unusual today. They informedand Duncan, so we increased our efforts to protect Liberty and Sonny.” Zachary explained, “If they snatch Sonny away, we can surely save him. Only, we underestimated Liberty's determination as a mother to protect her child. She ran so fast at that tand left our bodyguards behind.

She said with red eyes, Sonny was born to my sister and is her life. Not to mention she didn’t know you had people secretly protecting her and could help her save Sonny. But even if she knew, she would still chase after the bad guys out of a mother’s instinct to get him back.” Zachary blamed himself and said, “It was also due to our poor protection.” Serenity freed one of her hands to wipe her tears. “Why didn’t you remind my sister that Jessica was being used?” “She knows-it was she who suspected Jessica first and called to tellabout it. She insisted on following Hank and Jessica today because she suspected Jessica and refused to let Hank take Sonny away by himself.” Serenity asked, “Why didn’t she tell me?” Zachary was stumped for an answer. Liberty had her reason for not saying it, but he did not know why.
“Did Mr. Bucham have all the evidence?” “The evidence is with Julian.” “Why didn’t you call the police when you have all the evidence?” Serenity questioned.
Zachary answered after a moment of silence. “Mrs. Newman's men were scattered in their hiding, so arresting one of them would alert the rest. After the last zoo incident, | told you and Liberty to treat that as an accident and to live as usual.
“But Mrs. Newman would definitely strike again. We just needed to bide our time, and when she goes crazy, we can focus our efforts on catching her and her men. Even if we can't capture all of them, we can capture most of them.” Serenity touched her nephew's face gently. “At the end of the day, you were using Sonny.” Zachary was speechless.
“Now, | don't even know if it was right that | saved Camryn in the past.” “Seren, this isn’t your fault; it's theirs. If you had watched Ms. Newman get hurt back then and didn’t step in, you would have a bad conscience for the rest of your life.” Serenity bit her lip and did not speak.
“Have those people been caught now?” Zachary responded softly, “None of those who helped create chaos and stopped my men escaped. All of them were captured.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThere were about a hundred people.” Serenity looked at him again, “That crazy woman assigned so many people to be involved?” “Yes, she probably thought that there’s strength in numbers and they would certainly succeed in snatching Sonny away.” Serenity remembered what Camryn said and repeated it, “Camryn said that Mrs. Newman would resort to drastic measures if she was impatient. Carrie had really learned that well from her.” The mother and daughter did things based on their little whims regardless of the consequences.
“Mr. Newman might be taken out of this matter. He’s 99% unaware of Mrs. Newman's arrangement today. If he knew, we wouldn't have let her do it. The pieces of evidence from Julian are also mostly unfavorable to Mrs. Newman.” Serenity said, “Perhaps Mr. Newman had long thought of letting Mrs. Newman be the scapegoat.” Zachary hummed and said, “That's possible. That couple is truly an eye—opener.” Ring, ring, ring...
Serenity’s phone rang.
Zachary’s phone rang as well.
The couple answered the calls at the stime.
