Chapter 605 Draxton Lockwood's expression turned cold for a moment. "On what grounds are you taking to go?" The question stunned Gary Lockwood, and he did not know what to say.
"...That I'm Kieran's father." He paused for a moment before saying reluctantly.
Draxton Lockwood's voice instantly turned colder. "Don't use the child as an excuse. In the past, when you hurt Elodia Hudson, did you think of your child? "Gary, don't makedespise you. We have no one that's that shameless in our family." Gary stood rooted to the ground in the dim light, his face pale.
The footsteps of Draxton faded away.
Draxton was about to get into the car when he suddenly saw a small figure squatting by the door.
Draxton was extremely surprised. When he took a closer look, he saw that it was Kieran Lockwood.
"Why are you here?" Faced with Kieran, Draxton's voice sounded much gentler.
Kieran carefully raised his head. He was always quite afraid of his cold-looking Uncle Draxton. However, the thought of his mother made him muster up his courage, and he said, "Uncle Draxton, | want to see my mother. Can you bringto see her, please?’ Draxton felt conflicted.
No one knew that he would have to climb through the window in order to see Bella.
Perhaps... there was no need to climb through the windEl today. He had a legitimate reason to see her.
A while later, Kieran was sitting in the back seat of Draxton's car. The two of them went to Mr. Lyons's residence.
Gary stood in the shadows and watched the car drive away. He was unwilling to give up and finally followed behind.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs night fell, a tall, thin figure weaved through the streets. He was very swift, blending his aftermath shadows into the shadows of the street lamps.
Passers-by felt a gust of wind blow past them, but there was nothing every tthey turned around.
The figure darted into an alley and leaned against a wall, slightly panting.
He bent his back and placed his hands on his legs. After a few deep breaths, he cursed, "Damn it, Dawton City is too big. It's so difficult to reach a place, and places are so far away from each other.” Finishing, he straightened up and took out his phone from his pocket.
He turned on the map navigation on his phone. He realized that he was not far from his destination.
He immediately heaved a long sigh of relief. He put away his phone and continued to move forward.
He ran and ran. Finally, he reached his destination.
THUD! He seemed to have bumped into something and immediately felt dizzy. He took a few steps back.
His innate reaction was to tense up immediately and subconsciously assumed a defensive posture.
On the other side, Gary was also knocked back a few steps.
Gary was also running very fast, and he was sweating profusely then.
He didn't dare to use the Lockwood family car for fear of attracting attention, so he decided to go on foot.
In the dark night, beside a wall, both of them were panting as they looked at each other. Because of their guilty conscience, neither dared to look at the other too intensely.
Gary glanced at the other party. The person was wearing black stockings on his head. Bumping into such a person in the middle of the night was quite scary.
It was evident that he was not a good person.
However, the strength and speed of this person's collision with him just now indicated that he was not just any evil person.
If he was not a shadow guard from a big clan, he must be an expert from an organization.
However, his image was a little too old-fashioned.
A look of contemplation flashed in Gary's eyes. What in Dawton City was worth any forces sneaking around for? He could not figure out anything else except the crystal potion experiment that was still in progress.
Gary felt that he needed to tell Draxton and Mr. Lyons about this. However, he did not want to alarm the enemy, so he looked up at the stars in the sky and sighed. "The moon is so round today. | want to admire it for a while longer." With that, he rubbed his aching chest, turned around, and ran off.
Seeing Gary take off away, the person was rooted on the spot. His eyes were dazed for a moment.
He slowly raised his head and looked at the sky. The curved moon was like a small boat hanging in the sky. He silently retracted his gaze and muttered,’ Damn it, there's something wrong with that person's eyes." He contemplated for a moment and concluded that his actions had been detected. It was better to complete the mission quickly.
Hence, he glanced at the high wall not far away and quickly flipped over it.
On the other of town, Draxton had arrived at Mr. Lyon's residence with Kieran and was knocking on the front door.
When the butler saw Draxton, his expression changed for a second. He smiled and said, "It's Mr. Lockwood? Mr.
Lyon has instructed that you can't be allowed in. You need to return to where you've cfrom." Draxton's face darkened for a moment. He stared at the butler and said, ' | have a reason today." The butler was still smiling. Even if the Miraculous Doctor were to say anything for you, you can't be allowed to enter." He was very confident.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMr. Lyon had said that Draxton would not dare to barge in.
Draxton's face darkened. He pointed at Kieran beside him and said. Do you know him? This is Elodia Hudson's child. I'm here to take the child to his mother." The butler immediately looked at Kieran, and Kieran looked back at him expectantly.
The butler fell silent.
In his heart, he was thinking to himself that Draxton was unscrupulous. He was making use of a little kid.
How much did he love the Miraculous Doctor? How touching.
If not for Mr. Lyon's orders, he might have let them in because he was so moved.
But the reality was...
The butler pulled a long face and said, "Hey, little buddy, you can go in. But Mr. Lockwood, since you've already brought the child safely here, I'll bring him in. You can go back now." Draxton replied, "No, | have to make sure the child is safely by his mother's side personally. What if you sell him away after | leave?" The corners of the butler's mouth twitched. He suddenly had the urge to curse. He was the butler of the Lyons family and a well-known person in upper-class society. How could he beca child trafficker? The butler was very indignant. Draxton added, "I'll leave immediately once | made sure the child is safe with his mother.” When the tcame, he would use the PrCode to contact Bella so that she can personally request that he not leave.
Thinking of how ugly Mr. Lyons' expression would be, Draxton could not help having a wink in his eyes. His gaze towards Kieran beceven gentler.
"Mr. Lockwood, don't look for an excuse." Draxton interrupted him and said to Kieran, Kieran, you don’t dare to leaveand go with strangers, right?" Kieran raised his head and looked at Draxton. He nodded and looked at the butler with a timid expression. Even a trace of moisture was rising from his dark and bright eyes.
He aggrievedly said to the butler, "Uncle Franky, just let us in so we can go look for Mom. | guarantee that Uncle Draxton will leave after that." The butler felt exasperated.
It made him look like he was the bad guy.
Ultimately, he gave in to the child's pitiful expression and let them in.
He walked behind them and stared at Draxton's back, his eyes filled with resentment.
Why did it appear that Mr. Lockwood differed from what he heard of the rumors? Didn't the rumors say that he was a serious person? At that very moment, he didn't look serious at all.
