Maliah was also flustered and quickly called for someone to come in. “What’s happening? How did the baby end up here?”

“Baby” The burly man who had done the abducting was bewildered. When he opened the cabinet and saw the child inside, his face went pale. He too was at a loss. “It must have been a mistake. I was too nervous and didn’t see clearly. I’ll take them back now!”

Maliah, infuriated, exclaimed, “If we send them back now, wouldn’t we be turning ourselves in? Are you out of your mind? Get out!”

The man backed away feeling defeated and confused. He must have been so anxious that he ended up grabbing both the woman and the baby. He mumbled to himself, “Since it was a kidnapping, we could demand a higher ransom for both of them, but why is Ms. Anderson so angry?”

Dale said coldly, “This money is wasted. Hurry up and silence your men. Not a word should leak out, or we’re done for. If Matthew finds out that you did it, you’ll be in serious trouble!”

Dale wasn’t exaggerating. Maliah had never imagined this. She merely intended to teach Katherine a lesson and never meant to cross the Grant family. Maliah was in a state of panic, and Dale was also becoming increasingly anxious.

Maliah opened the cabinet door and saw the baby stretching. She was so terrified that she was about to cry. “What should I do? He’s waking up! What am I going to do?”

Dale was equally frantic. He didn’t know what to do either. He quickly searched for how to care for a newborn and then patted Maliah’s back. “Calm down. Quickly get some milk powder and diapers. If the baby starts crying and attracts attention, we’re finished.”

Realizing what needed to be done, Maliah instructed her subordinates to buy the necessary supplies. Meanwhile, the baby prince woke up, staring at them with wide eyes, leaving them both momentarily stunned.

Maliah panicked. “What should we do? He’s awake!” Maliah had never been so scared before. She feared nothing, but the thought of the baby crying terrified her. Before the baby could cry, she was already on the verge of tears herself.

Dale, though annoyed, had no choice but to reluctantly pick up the child. He let out a sigh and

guard with a smile. Thanks for your hard work. Is Mrs. Grant still asleep?”

What soup did you make? It smells good the bodyguard said, sniffing the air.

The nanny replied, “It’s creamy soup. A mother needs to have nutritious food after childbirth.”

The bodyguard opened the door to let her in. The nanny glanced at the bed where Valerie lay and then at the crib, only to be shocked. “Where is the baby?”

The bodyguard, alarmed, quickly entered. Valerie was the only one inside. The noise startled her; she rubbed her eyes as she woke up and looked around, bewildered. “Where’s Katherine?”

The bodyguard looked surprised. “We didn’t see her leave.”

Valerie panicked. “She didn’t leave? Then what about my son? Where is he?”

The cradle was empty. The baby had vanished!

Everyone was thrown into chaos. Matthew rushed over after finishing his meeting. Hearing the commotion and Valerie’s cries from the ward, he stormed in. “What’s happening?”

Valerie turned to him, her voice trembling. “Matthew, the baby is missing, and Katherine is gone too!”

Matthew’s head buzzed, and he barked, “Call the police immediately! Also, check the surveillance footage to see where they’ve gone!”

The bodyguards, in a state of panic, quickly executed the orders. They were tasked with guarding the door and protecting Valerie, but now the baby and Katherine were missing. Their minds were reeling.

Valerie clutched Matthew’s hand tightly. “We must find Hugo! Katherine wouldn’t harm me. Something must have happened to her!” Valerie knew Katherine wasn’t the type to cause trouble. If both she and the child were missing, it meant something had indeed gone wrong.

Feeling overwhelming guilt, Valerie muttered, “How could I have fallen asleep? I should have stayed awake and talked to Katherine!”

Seeing her distraught, Matthew quickly comforted her, patting her back. “Don’t worry, we’ll find Hugo. Maybe Katherine took the baby out for some fresh air?”

As soon as he said this, Matthew realized how unrealistic it sounded. Valerie knew he was trying to comfort her, but with bodyguards at the door, it was impossible for Katherine to have left with the baby unnoticed. With that thought, Valerie’s eyes turned red.

Matthew’s gaze hardened with fury, thinking, ‘Who the hell had the guts to abduct my son?‘
