Chapter 118 Whom Do You Think He Will Choose to Save?
Joe glanced at her indifferently and threw her a self-defense weapon. âLetâs go.â
âIâm going too!â David also rushed out, with a premonition that this matter might be related to him.
Joe snorted and quickly locked the car windows before driving away.
Jack, who was behind David, walked up with a smile. âMr. Johnson, why donât you take my car?â
David got in the car with a gloomy face.
âDonât worry, my team has surrounded the warehouse. If those people pose any threat to the kids, they will intervene first.â
Seeing that Charlotte remained silent, Joe suddenly said in a deep voice.
Charlotte nodded, her gaze continuously scanning outside the car window as if trying to find a focal point, yet she couldnât find one, no matter how hard she tried.
Just when Joe thought Charlotte would remain silent, she suddenly spoke up.
âWhen I gave birth to them, I went through a difficult labor and even went into shock. My heartbeat even stopped for a moment. The doctor placed both of them on my chest and let them cry, bringing me back from the brink of death.â
âThey are my children.â
Her voice was calm, but it made Joeâs heart tightened. An indescribable emotion surged in his heart, and he subconsciously tightened his grip on the steering wheel.
With some distance still remaining to the warehouse, they got out of the car.
The bodyguards stationed here approached. âCurrently, there are five criminals and three hostages in the warehouse. Apart from their freedom being restricted, the three children are safe. They havenât even cried.â
The bodyguards were all retired from the special forces and had participated in many rescue missions.
They had never seen such obedient children.
Upon hearing this, Charlotteâs heart clenched.
She managed to maintain her composure and asked, âIs there a young woman among the criminals you mentioned?â
The bodyguard nodded. âIndeed, there is such a person, and it seems like the others are following her lead.â
âIs it her?â
At this moment, David also arrived. He showed a picture of Lily to the bodyguard, who immediately confirmed, âYes! Thatâs her.â
Charlotteâs phone rang at this moment. Looking at the caller ID, her face darkened.
âWhat do you want?â Charlotte frowned and asked.
Lilyâs voice came from the other end of the line, and she chuckled lightly, âGuess. These three are all Davidâs children.
Whom do you think he will choose to save?â
âYouâve got it wrong. Ben and Anna arenât his children.â Charlotte pinched her palm tightly, calmly responding.
But Lily did not believe her at all.
She sneered and said, âMiss Clinton, do you think Iâm stupid?
Since David isnât the father of these two children, then who is?â
Charlotte restrained the impulse to look at Joe and continued, âWho the childrenâs father is doesnât matter. I just want to know what your demands are. Going to such lengths and causing such a commotion, you canât just be wanting to see Davidâs reaction, right?â
Lily laughed with allure, âI do indeed have demands. I want to marry David here and now, and I want you to kneel down and kowtow to me three times.â
âI know your people have found our location, but there are several bombs buried under the warehouse. If you dare to make any reckless moves, be prepared to collect these kidsâ
bodies.â
