Chapter 272: Chapter 272: Pranking Beau Shelby (2)
The apartment where Raina lives is a high-end apartment, always paying a lot of attention to safety issues.
As soon as the security guards heard a child’s cry for help, they immediately rushed over with people.
Before Beau Shelby could react, he was already surrounded.
"Little one..."
"Don’t come any closer! Waaa...waa..." Shea started crying as soon as Beau Shelby got a little closer.
"Stop right there!" The security guard immediately raised his electric baton.
"It’s really not like that. I’m not a bad person kidnapping children."
The security guard didn’t believe him at all: "What kind of wrongdoer would admit they’re a bad person."
"Looking all proper and decent but doing this sort of thing."
"Kidnappers of children deserve the worst fate."
Amidst the security’s mocking, district police hurried over and took Beau Shelby away. In his sorry state, he no longer had the demeanor of a nobleman.
Casper North, hiding in the corner, was sweating all over.
No wonder people say it’s better to offend a vile person than a woman—such beings have immense destructive power, especially someone like Shea, a walking nuclear weapon. What was Beau Shelby thinking, offending Shea?
Shea was escorted back by a group of security guards, and as she went upstairs, she politely thanked them: "Thank you, uncles. Otherwise, I would’ve been taken away by a bad person."
"No need to be so polite." The security guards, flattered by Shea, saw Anya Forrest rushing back and pulled her aside to scold her a bit.
Anya repeatedly assured them that she would certainly take good care of the child in the future, only then they let it go.
When Anya saw Shea grinning at her, she had a stern expression: "Even if you act cute, you can’t just let today’s matter go. You naughty child, how could you come up with such an idea?"
"Anya’s Mommy, it’s my fault you got scolded, but I’m not going to apologize. How could I, when Beau Shelby has bullied my mommy so much before! I have to get revenge for my mommy."
Shea said, still feeling angry about it.
Looking at Shea’s puffed-up face, Anya felt particularly helpless: "You’re right, revenge is necessary, but even so, you can’t put yourself at risk. Do you know that if Beau Shelby were truly a bad person, you might never see your Raina again?"
"Anya’s Mommy, I know, I know. I won’t do it again."
Looking at Shea twisting into a pretzel in her arms, Anya couldn’t bring herself to say any more harsh words.
She sighed quietly to herself, wondering what right she had to reproach Shea—wasn’t she the same way?
Even knowing that her actions might lead to destruction, she is still undeterred.
For if the cost of living safely is to be like a walking corpse, there’s nothing wrong with going down in flames along with the other party.
...
In the living room.
A servant hurried in, respectfully saying, "Sir, Miss North is here."
"Why is she here again?" Vincent Hawthorne frowned, showing an impatient expression: "Just say I’m not home and find an excuse to send her away."
Just thinking about how Elias Hawthorne disregarded him when he called in front of Claire North made Vincent unwilling to see Claire.
It was simply too disgraceful.
"Wait." Mrs. Hawthorne called the servant back, chidingly looking at Vincent: "You’ve used that excuse several times already, it’s really careless. No matter what, Claire North is still our Baby’s biological mother. If you disrespect her like this, aren’t you making Baby ashamed? Once Baby’s better, he’ll surely be mad enough to pull your hair out."
