"Nol" The boy's eyes were clear, but with a determination that could not be changed, he spoke in one word, "Take me with you!" There was a time when he had also said such things in front of the traffickers to defend his Stahler, but his Stahler, after all, had failed him.
He didn't refuse Leo's request, he pulled open the trunk, then coldly shoved him in, then closed the boot, got in, slammed on the accelerator, and the black van rushed out quickly.
"Leo, why are you following me!" Jayla wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes, she was quirky but not too bold, in this case, she had someone to accompany her, she was less panicked, but she still didn't want Leo to take risks for her.
"Leo, are you stupid Jayla, chocolate." Leo did not answer Jayla's words, but took out a piece of chocolate from inside his pocket and put it into her hand.
Originally, Jayla had already stopped crying, but when she saw the crumpled chocolate wrapper in her palm, her tears rolled down again.
The chocolate in Leo's palm was cheap at first glance, a few cents a piece, she had never eaten such cheap chocolate before.
She peeled the wrapping paper of the chocolate, which had been in his pocket for a long time, and the paper was stuck to the chocolate ball inside.
Her heart is sweet.
Jayla didn't even let go of the chocolate stained on the wrapper, she ate it, smiling with her eyebrows arched.

"Leo, thank you." She was now even more unmistakably sure that Leo really did regard her as a very good friend.
The road ahead is uncertain, life and death are uncertain, and there is no telling what kind of dangers we will face.
However, looking at the young boy with steely eyes in front of her, and recalling the sweet taste of chocolate in her mouth, Jayla was suddenly not afraid of anything anymore.
Leo, my best friend, you have protected me time and time again, this time, | will also protect you well, | am true to my word.
After Kieran, Freya and Jaden finished dealing with Fabian, they went straight to the old Fitzgerald mansion.
Joanna has been feeling much better lately, and she is particularly fond of Alistair, and when she doesn't see him for a day, she misses him so much that, almost every day, Alistair is brought to the old house for a while.
Today, Alistair was also brought to the old house by bodyguards and maids.
One of Joanna's most trusted maids, Halle, also helps to look after Alistair every day.
Alistair and Joanna were also very much in sympathy, and the smile on his face, during this recent period, was growing.
Although there were many maids and bodyguards inside the Kelsington Bay, after spending so much time outside, Freya was still strangely hung up on Jayla.
She thought that she would pick up Alistair and go back to Kelsington Bay. She had promised Jayla yesterday that she would tell her the story of Snow Princess tonight! Well, she had to be prepared and googled the short story of the Snow Princess.
Freya looked at her mobile phone for a while on the way, and by the time she reached the old mansion, she had already roughly understood the story of the Snow Princess. Thinking of the lovely look on Jayla's face as she listened to the story she told her, with a longing look on her face and a smile that curved her eyebrows, the corners of her lips, too, could not be restrained from rising.
At this hour, Joanna had long since gone to bed, and the maids said that Alistair had also been put to bed in the room next to Joanna's.
Freya also misses Alistair, and after not seeing him for a few hours, it seems like he has been separated for a long time.
She went upstairs quickly and went straight to the room next to Joanna's.
Alistair usually slept in the special cot in this room when she came to the old house. Freya thought that when she pushed open the door, she would see Alistair, who was in a sweet sleep, but when she opened the door, she found that the cot was empty and there was nothing there.
The two maids were lying on their backs by the cot, motionless, as if, dead.
Noticing that they were not holding Alistair in their arms either, a very bad feeling arose in Freya's heart.
She stepped forward quickly and gave the two maids a firm push, but they remained on the edge of the cot, unmoving.

On the back of their necks, there were visible marks, and it was clear that they had been knocked unconscious.
"Alistair!" Freya searched everywhere for Alistair's whereabouts, and in her heart, she was still holding on to a slight chance, but no matter how much she searched, she still could not find any trace of Alistair.
When Kieran heard Freya's anxious shout, he rushed over.
Looking at the empty cot, he instantly realised what had happened.
"Where's Halle?!" Kieran warily surveyed the inside of the room and did not find Halle's figure.
On the contrary, the two maids, who were originally unconscious, woke up after hearing Kieran's voice.
In their eyes, there was a clear look of confusion, and then, rather tacitly, the two of them exclaimed, "Save Alistair!" When they saw Kieran, the two of them knelt down directly on the ground, "Mr. Fitzgerald, go and save Alistair! There's something wrong with Halle! She knocked us out and snatched Alistair!" After listening to those two maids, Kieran's face became sober. Halle had worked for a long time in the old house, she had a certain power and authority over here, if she hid Alistair in a box or something else and she took it out with her, people wouldn't see anything different at all, let alone try to stop her! And they had no grudge against Halle, on the contrary, the Fitzgerald family was still kind to her, so how could she, with all the trouble, take away Alistair? What the hell is she trying to do? He quickly instructed his subordinates to pull up all the surveillance cameras inside the old mansion to see what Halle had done to Alistair.
At the same time, he asked Jaden to quickly use his mobile phone and locate Alistair's position.
Last time when he came back from the Free State, in order to avoid further accidents, he implanted a special small locating device on the arms of Alistair, Jaden and Jayla. This locating device is harmless to the human body, and it is fireproof and waterproof, so others will not easily find it. With the locating device, even if they are missing, it is easy for him to find them! Before Jaden could find out the whereabouts of Alistair, Freya's mobile phone rang.
It was a video from an unknown number.
