He asked John to get some people to kidnap her. However, Loredana was not there. Thus, they only managed to catch Theresa. They might think that since Theresa lived with Loredana, the relationship between them must also be very close.
When he investigated Loredana, he knew she had a friend, Theresa with her. However, Theresa had changed her appearance now so John just assumed Theresa was another friend of Loredana.
“What can I do now?” Boyce was a little chagrined. He felt that if he had gone to City C, maybe Declan would not manage to do that.
He felt sorry for Armand.
“Come to the villa and wait there for me at six o’clock.” He predicted that they could be back to the villa at that time.
Boyce said yes.
After the phone was hung up, he walked over. They were still standing and eating in front of the car. The hood was used as their table.
He walked in and he was surprised to find that food was getting more and more.
“Mummy had bought some too,” Andrew explained to him when mentioning his confusion.
Loredana did not know that Cormac had already bought something to eat. Thus, she also bought some food because she also felt a little hungry. Maybe she was pregnant and her baby was growing bigger, she just felt hungry when she didn’t eat something.
Almost all of the few types of food were bought repeatedly. Loredana placed a piece of dried bean curd into his mouth, “You eat some too. There is too much food here and it is such a waste if the food can’t be finished.”
Cormac was speechless.
He thought that she was worried that he would be hungry. However, it turned out that she was afraid to waste the food so that was why she gave him food?
Loredana didn’t know that he was thinking that much in his mind. She placed the dried bean curd closer to him and pressed it against his lips. Then, she spoke in a commanding tone, “Eat it.”
Cormac opened his mouth and ate it. Before he swallowed it, Loredana fed him another string of crab meatballs, “Open your mouth.”
Cormac was speechless.
He even hadn’t finished eating it.
“Hurry up, we have stayed here too long. You have to eat quickly.” Loredana urged.
Cormac opened his mouth and wanted to say that even if he could eat quickly, he had to chew it before swallowing it. Couldn’t he swallow the whole thing, right?
However, Loredana just stuffed a few more meat balls into his mouth just as he opened his mouth.
Cormac was speechless again.
Loredana also found that she was too anxious. She handed him water hurriedly. Cormac took the water. He swallowed the food in his mouth before taking a sip of water. He used the water to flush down the taste in his mouth. Then, he asked, “You want to choke me to death, do you?”
“No.” Loredana was afraid that he was not used to eating that food.
After all, it was not something good to eat. However, they could not have more demands there and it was already good that they could eat something to fill their stomach at the moment.
Loredana tugged his sleeve and whispered, “Don’t get angry.”
Cormac was not angry. His wife was feeding him. Thus, he had to eat it even he might be choked to death. When he was looking at her look of admitting her mistake at the moment, how could he bear to blame her?
He pretended to be angry, “I am going to punish you when we get back.”
Loredana was speechless.
Some of the food that was not finished eating by them was used to feed Cotton. They had stopped there and delayed for more than half an hour.
It was dawn when they got back to City B.
Cormac just drove back to the villa. Their two children had not slept well and eaten well in the car. Coral in the villa could take care of them. Then, he could be relieved and went to deal with the matter of Theresa.
Coral was happy to see them all back. She was having a big smile and hugging the two children. She looked at Loredana’s stomach and said that time had passed so quickly.
Cormac asked Coral to help the two children to take shower and change clothes for them since there were clothes for the two children. After that, he and Loredana went upstairs. Since he was going to meet Declan, he had to take a shower and change his clothes.
Loredana sat at the bedside and waited for him.
After a while, the water in the bathroom stopped flowing. Soon, the door of the bathroom was pulled open and Cormac walked out with a white bath towel wrapping around him. He glanced at Loredana, “You had no sleep all night, go and have a good sleep now. Let Coral cook whatever you want to eat.”
After saying that, he went to the cloakroom to put on his clothes.
Loredana sat there for a while. Then, she got up and went to the cloakroom. He had put on his shirt and pants and he was buckling his belt. She came in and took his suit to help him putting on it. After that, she took a tie that suit his attire from the shelf and gently tied it up for him. As a fashion designer, she would not only know about women’s dressing, but she also knew lots about men’s clothing.
Cormac was raising his eyebrows as she rarely ‘served’ him so gently.
“Is there anything wrong?” He asked.
Loredana helped him to tidy up his collar. She stroked the ironed, flattened collar and then spoke in a low voice, “Promise me, you will bring Theresa back unscathed no matter what happened.”
In fact, even Loredana didn’t ask, for Armand, he would save Theresa from there no matter what it would take him.
Reaching out, he tossed Loredana’s hair back to her ear and whispered, “Could you treat me in the same way in the future please?” Loredana wrapped her hands around his waist from an aside. Clinging to his chest, she promised, “I’ll treat you better in the future.”
She wanted to give him a warm home.
Probably their home might not be perfect, but at least they could live with their children altogether.
Soon, she withdrew her hands and urged him, “Hurry up and get down. They’re all waiting for you downstairs.”
They would have plenty of time to be together in the future, but Theresa couldn’t wait any longer.
Cormac kissed her on the forehead and comforted her, “Don’t worry.”
Loredana hummed. They walked out of the cloakroom. Cormac went downstairs, and both Boyce and Armand were still there. He cast a glance at Armand and said, “You should go home now.” Armand had been stayed up for a whole night, so he was truly sleepy. He stood up. “Okay. I’ll go home for a nap and also visit my grandmother.”
Cormac hummed. After Armand was gone, Boyce came over and asked, “Doesn’t Armand know it?”
Fortunately, he didn’t ask Cormac just now, as he noticed that Armand looked pretty relaxed and didn’t seem to know about it. Hence, he didn’t mention Theresa’s matter.
“No. It’s no good for us if he has known it.” Armand always acted recklessly. If he knew it, he wouldn’t only be unable to help them save Theresa but also make trouble for them.
“Declan Bailey is truly a jerk! Why did he kidnap a woman? If he wants to do anything, he should do it directly to us!” Boyce looked quite annoyed.
“Let’s go.” Cormac walked out of the villa. Boyce followed him without asking him anything. Cormac knew what happened to Theresa, so Boyce believed that he had contacted Declan already.
They didn’t go with a driver. Cormac drove himself. It wasn’t the rush hour in the morning yet, so there wasn’t traffic on the way. Soon, they’ve arrived at Central Road. The nightclub, which emanated an exciting atmosphere at night, became quiet.
After parking the car, they got off one after another. They didn’t encounter the same erotic scene like that when they came last time. It seemed that after a whole night, all the guests had become exhausted. The nightclub manager was taking charge of this place, but now he had gone to jail. John became the second chief here.
Besides Declan, everyone would obey his orders. Seem the two men, he came over with a smile. “Hello, gentlemen. Are you here to see our Mr. Bailey?”
