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.”

Jolin walked to the door and turned back, saying emotionally, “Please don’t panic, Mrs. Clinton. Calm down, okay?

I’ll go out and look for him now. But where should I start looking? There’s no way he could get lost right under my

nose. I’ll never lose him.”

Seeing Jolin in such a state of panic made Amelia feel bad. She hurriedly held the former’s hand and comforted,

“Calm down, Jolin. Let’s try to understand what happened first. I’m sure Tony will be fine.”

Amelia was beginning to understand the reason for all the sudden incidents. They’re clearly here for Tony. I can’t

believe we still lost to them after taking so many precautions. I’ve got to remain calm now. Only by doing that can I

bring Tony back. The more anxious I am, the more danger Tony will be in.

Seeing how Amelia was not getting mad at her, Jolin suddenly got on her knees and said guiltily, “It’s all my fault,

Mrs. Clinton. I performed poorly at my job and failed to protect Mr. Anthony. I swear I’ll pay with my life if I cannot

bring Mr. Anthony back to you.”

Amelia bent over and helped Jolin up. “I don’t want that, and Tony will be fine.”

Tiffany, who had been silent the entire time, walked over to the windows. Immediately, she spotted a rope hanging

down from the windowsill. She called out, “Amelia, I think they came in from here. What I don’t understand is that

with Jolin’s sense of alertness, there’s no way she wouldn’t realize Tony was being taken away.”

That made Jolin feel even more guilty.

“I’m sorry,” she muttered.

Amelia empathized with Jolin and consoled her, “Don’t say that, Jolin. Now is not the time to be blaming yourself.

Can you get the surveillance footage from the neighborhood? I want to see which jerk has the guts to kidnap a kid

in broad daylight.”

Jolin nodded. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly retreated, saying, “Mrs. Clinton, I still need to protect

you. Kurt and Hugo have gone with Boss to pursue the kidnappers. I wouldn’t be able to make up for it with my life

if something were to happen to you.”

Amelia’s expression turned grim, and she offered, “I’ll go with you.”

With that, Amelia, Tiffany, and Jolin went out to look for the neighborhood’s administrator to get the footage. Sadly,

Jolin found nothing suspicious about the footage during the time they were home. As the trio stepped out of the

security office, Jolin said, “Mrs. Clinton, these people came here prepared. They avoided all the surveillance

cameras throughout the process. Looks like the footage won’t help us much.”

Amelia furrowed her brows. She was about to say something when her phone rang. As she pulled her phone out,

she saw Oscar’s name on the caller ID.

Her anxious heart miraculously relaxed. However, she had experienced so much nervousness and misery for the

past few hours that she answered the phone and cried out in a choked voice, “I’m sorry, Oscar. I lost Tony. What

should I do? I don’t think I could live if something were to happen to him.”

There was a long silence at the other end of the phone. Trying his best to remain calm, Oscar said, “Amelia, I need

you to calm down. Where are you? Come home first. I’ve already reached home. No matter what happens, you’ve

still got me. I promise nothing will happen to Tony. You trust me, right?”

Amelia’s eyes reddened as she replied firmly, “I trust you.”

As soon as the trio returned to the condominium, Amelia threw herself into Oscar’s embrace, sobbing, “Oscar, they

took Tony away. I’m scared. I’m really scared. I fear something might actually happen to him.”

Hugging her, Oscar consoled, “Don’t be scared. I’m here now. I promise no one will dare to harm Tony.”

Still in his embrace, Amelia nodded and slowly parted from him.

Oscar shot Jolin a glance, scaring the latter so much that she stepped forward and recounted the entire incident.

Jolin fell to her knees and said seriously, “Boss, it’s my fault. I failed to protect Mr. Anthony. I’ll do everything in my

power to rescue him. Please give me a chance to redeem myself. I’ll let you punish me however you want once I

find him.”

Oscar stared at her condescendingly, saying, “Jolin, you’ve been working with me for many years. I’m sure you’re

well aware of my rules by now. You’ve made the worst mistake. Tell me. Are you working with the enemy? Where

have they taken Tony to? I trained you personally, so there’s no way you wouldn’t realize such major movements.”

Jolin paled and explained frantically, “I’m not working with them, Boss! I swear I’m loyal to you! I just… I don’t know

why I didn’t realize anything when they came in. I suddenly felt so sleepy when I was watching over Mr. Anthony

and fell asleep without realizing it. I didn’t realize Mr. Anthony was gone until Mrs. Clinton woke me up.”

Oscar’s eyes glinted with murderous intent. He kicked Jolin and stepped on her chest, growling, “Tell me the truth.”

Jolin’s eyes were filled with fear as she gazed at him. She coughed violently and stammered, “Boss, I-I really didn’t

do it.”

The murderous intent in Oscar’s eyes intensified. “Jolin, I’m going to kill you if you don’t speak up.”

Finally snapping out of her daze, Amelia walked over and grabbed Oscar’s arm, shaking her head. “Oscar, let Jolin

go.”

Oscar froze for a moment before removing his leg from Jolin’s chest. Seeing that, Amelia bent over and helped Jolin

up, patting away the dust on the latter. Amelia asked caringly, “Are you okay?”

“Thank you, Mrs. Clinton. I’m fine.” Jolin nodded and coughed several times.

Amelia comforted, “Jolin, Oscar’s just worried about Tony. Please don’t take it to heart. I believe you truly care

about Tony and me. I’ll make Oscar apologize to you once we find Tony.”

Jolin refused hurriedly, “No, no. It’s my responsibility to find Mr. Anthony.”

Right then, Kurt and Hugo returned. They reported in unison, “Boss, we’ve found five of the kidnappers, but they’re

really good at keeping their mouths shut. Till now, we still haven’t gotten a single piece of information from them.”

“Continue questioning them. They’ve got Tony, and I want to know where they’ve taken him to,” Oscar said grimly.

Upon hearing that, Kurt subconsciously glanced at Amelia.

It was Hugo’s voice that brought Kurt’s attention back.

“Got it, Boss,” Hugo responded.

Meanwhile, Kurt pondered for a moment and said, “Boss, I gave Tony a bracelet once. It has a GPS tracker on it. As

long as he still has the bracelet on, I can locate his exact position.”

Oscar gave Kurt a thoughtful gaze. He then patted the latter’s shoulder, saying, “Kurt, I’ll owe you a huge favor if

this works. Once he’s back, you can return and continue watching over him. Compared to me, you’re more

attentive to him.”

Kurt lowered his head and answered stiffly, “Don’t mention it, Boss. I’m just carrying out my responsibility. Besides, I

once promised Amelia to keep Tony safe.”

“Very good,” Oscar uttered with a complicated look, patting Kurt harder.

I love Amelia and Tony deeply, but I was not as thorough as Kurt when it came to keeping Tony safe. I guess I can

only blame it on my overconfidence in my abilities. This entire situation would’ve been irreversible if it weren’t for

Kurt.

With that, Kurt began locating Tony’s position. It took almost half an hour to finally find the latter’s location. It was at

an abandoned building on the far west of the city’s outskirts.

Oscar ordered, “Hugo, gather everyone from the organization and head to the far west of the city’s outskirts. No

one is to move in until I give the order. They must get Tony out safely. Not a single hair on his body must be

harmed.”

“Got it, Boss,” Hugo responded hurriedly and made a phone call to inform all the members scattered across

Tayhaven, all except for those carrying out missions in another province or country.

Right as Oscar and the others were heading out to carry out the rescue mission, they saw Carter and Jennifer

walking out of the elevator.

Carter hurried over and examined Amelia before asking worriedly, “Amelia, are you okay? That broken bridge

caused a huge delay for Jennifer and me. We had to get someone to bring us over using a boat. You have no idea

how anxious we were seeing you guys in the midst of all that danger.”

Amelia glanced at Jennifer and shook her head. “I’m fine.”

Suddenly, Oscar ordered, “Hugo, watch over them. We’ll talk more once I get back.”

Hugo stretched out his arm and gestured for them to follow him. “This way, Mr. Scott, Ms. Larson.”

Perplexed, Carter asked, “Mr. Clinton, what’s the meaning of this?”

“Both of you invited us for a trip to Galbur Mountain. And now, my son is in trouble. Do you think we’re going to

believe it’s all a coincidence?” Oscar uttered coldly. He then grabbed Amelia’s hand and walked into the elevator.

Carter stood frozen to the ground. Then, he shot Jennifer a complicated look before following Hugo into the

condominium.

Upon entering the house, Jennifer asked, “Carter, you believe Oscar’s words, don’t you? You, too, think I planned all

this?”

Carter eyed her and shook his head, smiling bitterly. “I don’t know.”

Jennifer moved her lips as if wanting to say something. Sorrow surfaced in her eyes.

I did consider making a move on Tony before, but I really didn’t plan this. Besides, I don’t have the capability to hire

armed kidnappers. Then again, I mentioned this trip to June before, so I wouldn’t put it past him to use me to plot

something. Once everything is exposed, there’s no guarantee he won’t put all the blame on me. He’s a vicious and

sinister person. There’s always a possibility of him making me his scapegoat.

Suddenly, Jennifer’s heart sank. It was at that moment that she realized her collaboration with June was an act of

playing with fire from the very start. If June were to put the blame on her, she would have to face Oscar’s rage.

Noticing her expression, Carter lowered his gaze, which had a hint of disappointment. “Jennifer, did you really do

this? Did you purposely get close to me so that you could use me?”

Jennifer’s lips twitched, and she let out a wry chuckle. “Would you believe me if I said I didn’t do it and that I just

wanted everyone to have a good time at Galbur Mountain?”

Carter shook his head, saying, “I don’t know. You’ve changed a lot. You’re no longer the woman from three to four

years ago who’d follow me blindly. I don’t know if you’ll use me as a stepping stone to harm Amelia. She was once

the woman I loved for many years. Even now, she has an important place in my heart. So, I don’t know if I can trust

you when it comes to her matters.”

Jennifer stiffened, her last strand of hope instantly turning into ashes.

She put away her wry smile and folded her arms, stating stubbornly, “I get it. I no longer hope to get your trust.

After all, only the innocent know they’re innocent. We’ll talk more once Tony is rescued. I’m feeling a little tired. If

you don’t mind, I’m going to get some sleep. Even a deathrow inmate gets a last meal, right?”

With that, she lay on the bed and closed her eyes, unwilling to take another look at Carter.

Carter cast her a conflicted look. After some time, he walked out of the guest room and glanced at Hugo, who was

guarding the front door. “Hugo, can I know how did Tony go missing? He was still with Amelia at Galbur Mountain

the last I saw him.”

Hugo eyed him and said flatly, “I’m sorry, Mr. Scott. I can’t tell you anything.”

Not bothered by the reply, Carter pressed on, “Do you know Tony’s exact location? I can send someone over to

help.”

“I think you should go in, Mr. Scott,” Hugo suggested politely.

Though Carter had gained zero information from all the questions, he still worried about Tony’s safety. At the same

time, he feared Amelia might not be able to handle it if something actually happened to the boy.

Meanwhile, Oscar sped to the far west of the city’s outskirts.

Many bodyguards were already hidden in the woods and behind bushes by the time he arrived. As soon as they saw

him, they stepped out and greeted, “Boss.”

“How are things?”

“We’ve sent someone to scout the area. It’s confirmed that Mr. Anthony is in there. He’s fine at the moment,

merely sleeping on the ground. The opponent has quite a huge number of men. Judging from their gait and how

they handle their guns, they’re most likely to be veterans. They also appear to be from various countries. Looks like

rescuing Mr. Anthony won’t be so easy,” one bodyguard explained.

Oscar’s eyes darkened even more, and he clenched his fists, saying coldly, “Make the arrangements. We move

once the sky darkens. I want to find out which b*stard is bold enough to kidnap my son.”

“Noted, Boss,” the bodyguards responded in unison.

Oscar wanted to personally scout the abandoned building to find out how Tony was doing.

Reading his mind, Amelia took his hand and said in a worried tone, “Oscar.”

Oscar caressed her face and said gently, “Don’t worry. I’m here. I won’t let anything happen to our son.”
