Chapter 1012
“Grandpa, can I call my mom to come pick me up? I don’t want to go to the police station. I’m scared I might run into that kidnapper again.” Evan peered up with his big, clear eyes, asking Clayton.
Clayton nodded eagerly, “Of course, of course p>
The child’s request was exactly what he wanted!
Pamela, seeing the little guy not crying and actually quite happy, naturally wanted to keep him around, to give Pamela more company.
Clayton, with a loving look, asked, “Do you have your parents’ contact information p>
“Yes, I’ll call her right now p>
But the next second, Elliot’s call came in first.
Evan couldn’t step away, so he had to take the call in front of Clayton, quickly explaining his situation to prevent Elliot from slipping up,
“Bro, I was brought to a strange place by a kidnapper, but don’t worry, I’m safe. There’s a kind grandpa and a beautiful grandma here, they’re good people. Can you tell mom to come get me p>
Elliot was just calling to check on him.
The brothers had agreed to not worry about the bad guys for now, focusing on getting to their grandparents’ side to ensure their grandmother’s safety. So Evan played along with the story of being kidnapped to make his way to Clayton and Pamela’s side-secretly guarding his grandma!
Hearing Evan was with his grandparents, Elliot felt relieved.
With Evan there, no one would dare touch a hair on their grandmother’s head!
Elliot said, “Mom was really worried when she found out you were missing. We’ve tracked you down through the GPS on your phone watch and are on our way now. Stay with grandpa and grandma, don’t wander off p>
“Yeah, tell mom not to worry, I’m safe p>
Actually, he was reassuring Elysia that their grandmother was safe.
“I got it,” Elliot said before hanging up.
To avoid causing Elysia any distress, they decided not to let her talk to Evan directly.
Evan turned his little face up to Clayton and said,
“My mom is on her way here. She tracked me down through the GPS on my phone watch p>
“Alright,” Clayton asked, “What’s your name p>
“Evan p>
“And your mother p>
“Elysia p>
“Elysia… That’s a warm name p>
Clayton complimented, instructing his assistant,
“Let the doorman know, when a lady named Elysia comes looking for her child, let her in directly p>
He simply praised the name, without imagining what kind of person she might be.
After all, he could never have guessed that this girl was the daughter he and Pamela had been desperately searching for over two decades! “Beautiful grandma, have you had breakfast yet?” Evan looked at Pamela and asked.
He suddenly remembered the bad woman mentioning ‘starving,’ guessing his grandma hadn’t eaten yet.
Skipping meals wasn’t good!
Mom always said, “People need food like iron needs steel; eating on time keeps you healthy p>
Though Pamela seemed lost, her eyes were still clear and bright, radiantly gentle, without a hint of malice.
She shook her head, “I haven’t, have you p>
Evan shook his head too, “I haven’t either, but I’m getting a little hungry. Beautiful grandma, could you share a bit of your breakfast with me?” Pamela immediately turned to Clayton, “Clayton, breakfast! Breakfast p>
Clayton was overjoyed, his eyes welling up with tears!
This was the first time in over twenty years that Pamela had actively asked him for food!
Ever since their daughter went missing, Pamela had lost her appetite.
