At first, Thomas frowned when he heard that request. After a while, he curled up his lip and smiled.
He looked at Joshua. “I should be grateful that your son asked Sean to rescue my daughter, but why
use my daughter to bargain with me?”
He leaned back and looked at Joshua coldly. “What are you guys trying to do?”
Joshua curled up his lips and smiled. “This is Nigel’s plan, I have no say in it. He felt like Sean should
be the one who rescued Riley, and that’s what he did. I’m just in charge of setting up this meeting.”
Thomas squinted and glared at Joshua before turning to look at Sean. “Mr. Wheeler, let’s cut the crap
and tell me what’s your term. If it’s not too absurd, I’ll agree to it.”
He did not like to be threatened nor negotiate terms with another person. This was for Riley, so he
needed to cave in. The most important thing for him was to avenge his mother and keep Yannie and
Riley safe.
“It’s not a difficult thing for you, honestly.” Sean curled up his lips and smiled. He took out his phone
and found a photo.
It was a photo of Denise holding Riley with a bright smile.
“I hope you’ll let her go,” Sean said.
The smile on Thomas‘ face disappeared the second he saw Denise in the photo. He squinted and
looked at the photo coldly. “Just as I expected. She’s the one who kidnapped Riley!”
His assumption was right. Riley was in Denise’s hand because Denise was the one who kidnapped
her! “So you’re really going to plead for Denise, Mr. Wheeler?” Yannie furrowed her brow and looked at
Sean with disbelief. “Am I hearing this right?”
If what Thomas said was right, Denise was the person who kidnapped Riley. Yet, after Sean rescued Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Riley from Denise, he was pleading with them to forgive Denise.
Was he nuts?
“Yes.” Sean looked at Joshua before looking at Thomas and Yannie. He smirked. “However, all of you
misunderstood one thing: Ms. Hughes wasn’t the one who kidnapped your child. It was Kate Miller.” He
paused and took out the surveillance footage Nigel asked him to bring over. “These are the surveillance
footage that the employee of the hospital deleted. You can clearly see the person who wanted to
kidnap your daughter is Kate Miller. When she was about to take away your daughter, she was stopped
by Steven. Kate still fantasized about being with Steven, so she handed your daughter to him to make
him feel grateful to her.”
Thomas furrowed his brow. His heart tightened when he looked at the surveillance footage from the
phone.
All this while, he knew the Hughes family and the Miller family were on the same boat. In spite of that,
he knew Steven was different from the others in his family.
If Steven did not take Riley from Kate, the consequences would be unbearable.
“After Steven took your daughter, he kept her safe in a mansion located outside the city. After you got
into trouble, Steven and Gwen had been busy helping you to look for Mr. Zink. At that time, Kate
must’ve realized your daughter is still useful to her, so she sent many people to Steven’s mansion,
trying to snatch her back. I got sent to rescue your daughter after Nigel discovered Kate’s plan.”
He stared into Thomas‘ eyes. “Denise went to rescue Riley with me. Without her, the rescue mission
wouldn’t have gone as smoothly-”
