Renewal Of Love

Chapter 417 Bob Was Taken Away

Early the following day, before anyone was awake, loud banging rang throughout the property. It

seemed like someone was hell-bent on breaking through the front door.

Kevin immediately got up, an annoyed expression contorting his face. As he put his clothes on, he

turned his bloodshot eyes to Anne and said, "I don't know what's going on outside. Stay here and don't

go out."

Anne, now also wide awake, rolled her eyes. As soon as Kevin went out the door, she, too, put on her

clothes and followed him out.

The banging not only woke the couple up, but also everyone else in the house. Sam, Emily, Selma, and

Eddy had also started preparing to go down and see what was happening.

Holding Eddy's hand, Selma yawned and said impatiently, "It's still so early! Who would be so impolite

to disturb us?"

As soon as Kevin reached the doorbell monitor and saw who were on the other side of the door, his

frown deepened.

There were five people outside: Bob's mother, Bob's father, and three people donning police uniform.

'It is still so early. Why does it seem like they're in a rush? What is happening?' Kevin thought. While he

was annoyed, he couldn't help but feel nervous as to what might be the reason for such an untimely

visit.

With his heart filled with doubts, Kevin opened the door. Bob's mother rushed in at once. Unfortunately,

her legs were so weak that she fell on her knees in front of Kevin.

This shocked Kevin. He immediately tried to help her, but she pushed him away, refusing to let him

come anywhere near her. With visible tear streaks on her face, she got up and looked around. After a

few moments, her stare landed on Anne and Selma, who had just arrived downstairs.

She was right. These two women indeed knew each other.

She then burst into tears. "Anne, Kevin, please! I beg you! Give Bob back to us! You are also parents.

How can you treat Bob like this?" Bob's mother once again fell to her knees, now crying bitterly.

The heartbreaking scene confused Kevin and Anne immensely. They turned to each other, looking for

answers, but there was none.

Anne walked over to the despairing mother to console her, but Bob's mother tightly gripped Anne's

hand, pulled her closer to her, and begged, "Please, please, Anne! You are also a mother! You know

how important a child is to his parents. How could you do what you have done! Please give Bob to us,

please!"

Anne squatted in front of Bob's mother, with confusion written all over her face. "I'm sorry, but I have no

idea of what you're talking about. Can you stand up and tell me about what is happening?"

Bob's father sighed, looked at Anne, and shook his head. "Last night, while my wife was sleeping, our

son disappeared. We tried to check the surveillance footage from the hospital, but they told us that

something was wrong with it. We didn't get anything, so we found nothing at all!

The only people who has the power to do that are you two! Not to mention, you have a good motive!"

Stunned silence filled the room. Kevin and Anne were shocked beyond belief.

Indeed, they needed Bob's heart, but they would never take him without consent from him parents.

"I understand why you would think that. We need Bob's heart, but we would never do such a thing!"

Kevin adamantly denied, looking directly into Bob's father's eyes.

Surprise flashed through Bob's father's eyes. Before he could say anything, however, Bob's mother had

already shouted, "We are just ordinary people. We have never offended anyone. If it is not you, who

else will kidnap our child?"

Anne tenderly held Bob's mother's hand and said with all sincerity, "This is the first time we got the

news that Bob had disappeared. We do not know what happened or where he is right now. Please trust

us!"

"No one would be so despicable and shameless to do these things except for you! Why should we

believe that you had nothing to do with this? You took my child! Give him back to me! Give him back!"

All of a sudden, Bob's mother pulled Anne towards her until they were both on the ground. She then

got on top of her and started to pull on her hair and beat her face with her fists.

No one expected Bob's mother to act like this, and so no one was able to help Anne instantly. After

some moments, Kevin came between the two women, while Bob's father held her wife back.

"Calm down, please! We have to find our boy first!" Bob's father shouted loudly, sounding anxious and

uneasy.

Emily ran up to Kevin and Anne, intending to help.

Anne was already on her feet, straightening her clothes and fixing her hair. She had several little

scratches on her beautiful face, and Bob's mother was still holding some of her broken hair in her hand.

Emily frowned and glared at Bob's mother. The air around Kevin suddenly became cold.

Seeing this, Selma, too, couldn't help but feel annoyed. She immediately held Eddy in her arms, turned

around and walked back towards the bedroom.

Eddy didn't want to go, and so he struggled against Selma's grip for a while. As he looked at Anne, he

felt hurt deep inside.

"Anne, I'm warning you! Give me back my child, because trust me, I will not rest until he's with me!

Even if I die right now, I swear I'm going to come back as a ghost and haunt you until I achieve justice! I

will make your life miserable! And your child, he will go to hell with me, too!" Bob's mother shouted. Her

eyes were wide and unfocused, a clear sign that she was having a mental breakdown.

Instead of answering, Anne just let out a big sigh as she put her hand on her forehead. Kevin, however,

was more confrontational. "If you still want your boy back, you'd better shut up!" he warned, rage visible

in his eyes.

The aura he was exuding was so cold and hostile that Bob's mother immediately became quiet and

even Bob's father froze up.

The three police officers had been quiet until that moment. Sensing that the meeting wasn't going well,

one of them chimed in, saying, "I know you are worried about your missing boy, but terrorizing these

two would not help you find your son faster. Instead of fighting, we must focus our efforts on the search

and rescue."

Although Bob's mother was once again bawling her eyes out, she nodded in agreement with what the

officer said. Her husband was still holding her tightly out of fear that she might do something reckless

again.

"But what happened to the security footage? What happened to it? Also, isn't there a footage from any

cameras installed in the streets?" Kevin asked the officers, his expression serious.

The policeman shook his head. "At the beginning, we just thought that the boy ran out secretly to play,

but when we checked the surveillance video, we found that it recorded nothing during that timeframe.

Because of that, we felt that something bad had happened. We immediately searched the immediate

areas, but we also found that the same thing happened to the surveillance. It seems like a hacker

deleted every important footage."

That was the reason they had no idea as to where to start looking for the missing boy.

It was at that moment when Bob's parents suggested that Anne and Kevin might have kidnapped their

son. The officers didn't want to just barge into someone's home without any proof they did something

wrong, but the insistence of Bob's parents made them agree to it.

Anne looked up at Kevin, and the latter shook his head slightly. It was then did Anne realize that there

was something fishy about it.

First, someone told the truth to Bob's parents. Now, Bob was taken away. Somehow, it seemed like

someone was purposefully trying to set her and Kevin up.

Looking at Bob's mother, she asked, "Who told you about us needing Bob's heart?"

Through her tears, Bob's mother sneered. "Although we are ordinary people, we know how to protect

the one who helped us!"

For Bob's parents, Anne and Kevin were evil as they wanted their boy's heart. They weren't entirely

sure whether or not the one who revealed the truth to them was good, but he had helped them anyway,

and so they would not easily give out his identity.

Besides, if they told Anne who that person was, they would probably do something bad to him!

Anne felt so helpless. Emily took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood stains on her face. "Whoever

planted the idea in your head is so obviously against me and Kevin!" she lamented, her voice cracking.

"Only when we know who that person is can we find Bob and bring him back!"

Anne's genuine emotions seemed to have resonated with Bob's parents. "Do... do you really not know

what happened to our child?"

Both Anne and Kevin shook their heads. "If we really did take Bob, we would have gone back to A City

hours ago instead of just staying here. So trust us—we didn't take your son!"

There was no way they would do such reckless thing, especially since Bob was the only one who could

save Eddy.

"The only clue we have right now is the identity of the person who contacted you. If you don't want to

reveal that to us, then we cannot help you." Shaking her head, Anne looked at the police and said, "If

you want to take us to the police station for inquiry, we'll comply. If you don't need to do that, please

leave."

The policemen looked at each other, nodded, and then looked at Bob's parents. One took in a deep

breath and said, "A boy that young being away from his parents is dangerous. We believe that at this

moment, nothing is more important than his life."

Bob's mother looked at her husband, who sighed. "The man who came to see us that day was in a suit

and wearing sunglasses. He looked average, not handsome. He always gave people a cold feeling."

Then he looked at Anne and Kevin expectantly.

Kevin took out his phone and found a photo of Kim. He showed it to Bob's parents so that they could

identify him, but after looking at it for a while, the couple just shook their heads. "He wasn't the one we

spoke with," Bob's father said.

It indeed was reasonable that Kim was hidden in some place instead of going to places and being in

public. He was still wanted by the police in multiple cities.

Finally, Anne said, "We don't know who it is either." Helplessly, Anne shook her head, but she was very

sure about one thing. "I think the disappearance of Bob must have something to do with the man who

contacted his parents."

The policeman nodded and said, "We will immediately set up a special team to investigate this man."

There seemed to be no other way.

Bob's parents also felt helpless, but the only thing they could do was go home and wait for news. They

were particularly worried about Bob's health, and so they wanted him found as soon as possible.

It was only a few days ago that Bob's physical condition finally stabilized. If he underwent extreme fear Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

and stress, what would happen to him?

Kevin and Anne were also worried for Bob.

"No matter who is behind this whole thing and what they want to achieve with this, it seems like their

aim is not in M City, but in A City. Maybe we should go back." Although Anne had applied some

ointment on her face, it was still a little swollen.

Bob's mother was really strong and scratched her hard.

Kevin stared at Anne. He touched her forehead and parted her bangs. When she saw the scar, he

frowned.

Her delicate and beautiful face which was as perfect as a doll now was filled with underserved injuries.

Anne wasn't thinking about that, however. Instead, she just stared back at Kevin quietly.

"Anne is right," Selma suddenly said. "Since these people are clearly our enemies, we can't fight in M

City. We have to go back to A City."

Just the fact that whoever was trying to antagonize them had hired a hacker to erase any relevant

footage in the hospital and in surrounding areas was a testament as to how powerful and destructive

they were.

In M City, it was obvious that they were at a disadvantage. It would be much wiser for them to go back

to A City!

Kevin nodded. With that, the whole house became busy: Emily and Sam packed up their things, Anne

and Kevin made arrangements. After careful consideration, Anne went to see Bob's parents before

they left.

Because of what happened that morning, Kevin didn't dare be careless. He now always stood in front

of Anne to protect her, in case anything happened.

Bob's parents didn't expect that Anne would meet them again. They felt embarrassed by how they

treated her earlier.

"We have decided to go back to A City. Somehow, we feel that whoever took Bob had already taken

him there!" Anne shared. To the parents who had lost their son, she could only offer a sympathetic

gaze.

Though Bob's mother had calmed down a lot, she still didn't feel comfortable with Kevin and Anne. She

said, "You are looking for Bob just because you want his heart. Why do you have to say that? I still do

not think that you are a good person. You are just scheming against us, just like that man we talked to!"

That was what reality was for her.
