A Moment in Destiny

“Ah, how about Lena and Oscar?” said Esther suddenly. “They were captured because of me, what should I do? Where are they? Have you guys seen them?”

“Don’t worry, I’ll send people to look for them!” Elijah comforted her.

They didn’t think that Christ would take such extreme measures. They even kidnapped a child.

“I knew that he wasn’t a good person! Bring Esther home, Elijah. I’ll search for them!” Philip wanted to kill Christ just thinking about it.

“No, I cannot leave now. I can only leave after I know that they’re fine!” How could Esther just walk away like that? And they were kidnapped by Christ because of her.

She thought about Lena and Oscar, and then she thought about Hudson.

“First, let’s look for them!” Elijah knew what Esther was thinking. He gave orders and everyone went looking for Lena and Oscar.

“Elijah, Hudson transferred all his money to his father’s account to save me. He said that he would come back soon, can you call him?”

Elijah then realized that he didn’t have his phone with him. He came out in a rush and only brought his private phone, not the other one.

“It’s at home, we’ll make the call later!”

“Esther…” Not long after, Lena walked out from the warehouse next door, holding her son in her arms. Tears welled up in her eyes the moment she saw Esther, “Are you okay?”

“I was scared to death, I’m so glad that you guys are alright! I’m fine!” Esther walked up and hugged her. She comforted Lena and after that, Elijah left with Esther. Philip sent Lena and Oscar home.

On the way home, Esther looked at Elijah gently. She hugged his arm tenderly, “Elijah, who were you calling when you were defusing the bomb? He’s a genius.”

“Mind your own business, kid!” said Elijah gently. Yes, Claudio was a genius! But Claudio was a female! He always thought that Claudio was a male! There were people with many different talents in LN Bar, Evan Gray had so many subordinates and Elijah didn’t even know their faces.

“Kid? I was almost a mom. I’m not a child!” Esther sounded a bit annoyed, she swung his arms coquettishly, “You called me a child! I don’t like you!”

“Fine! You’re not a child!” Elijah sighed. He gently ruffled her hair. He felt dejected thinking about him having to leave her in 2 weeks.
