Keira frowned.
Having finally made it up here, we’re just going to leave?
Keira was about to say sothing when Thomas grabbed her shoulder. "What, don’t want to leave? Then you must have ulterior motives!"
As soon as he said this, a lot of bodyguards rushed in, surrounding them all.
Scarlet imdiately shouted, "Dad, what are you doing?"
Thomas South took a deep breath and looked at Scarlet. "They’re plotting against you, Scarlet. People outside are evil. Have you seen that clearly?"
Scarlet shook her head. "I don’t believe it. Norma just wants to stay for so protection!"
Thomas was anguished. "How could I have such a foolish daughter? Guards. Take her to her room."
With these words, two bodyguards stepped forward, grabbing Scarlet’s arms on either side.
Scarlet showed an angry expression. "What are you doing? Let go!"
But the two bodyguards didn’t let go; they only slightly bowed their heads and spoke to Scarlet. "Miss, sorry."
Then they applied a little force and lifted Scarlet, taking her upstairs.
Keira frowned at the scene.
Scarlet shouted, "Dad, let go, don’t drive my friends away! They’re all my friends! You are not allowed to hurt them; otherwise, I’ll... I’ll go on a hunger strike!"
As Scarlet’s voice finally disappeared behind a door, Thomas looked at Keira and Lewis. "This way. I’ll see you off."
Keira frowned and exchanged a glance with Lewis.
Keira knew she had encountered a tough adversary.
Thomas was in his forties. Having experienced the family’s decline, he was bound to be resourceful and difficult to deceive.
Keira took a deep breath, clenched her fists, but Lewis shook his head at her slightly.
Keira understood that exposing their disguise now wouldn’t work. With so many people, once they caught the two of them, they’d surely secure them.
She could only nod. "Okay, we’ll go with you."
Thomas waved his hand, and the rest of the bodyguards surrounded them, clearly not intending to give Keira and Lewis any chance to escape.
Keira followed behind them helplessly.
Thomas, as a descendant of the direct lineage, certainly traveled with a grand entourage. Rows of luxury cars drove on the road towards the coastline.
Keira and Lewis were bound at the hands, sitting in Thomas’s car.
Thomas looked at Keira and sneered. "People from the mainland are cunning. You saw that my daughter was easy to deceive, so you targeted her, didn’t you?"
Keira replied calmly, "I approached her because she is kind."
Thomas squinted his dark eyes. "Enough! With here, no one can deceive my daughter. I’m telling you, today you must leave. Do you see? People surround us from all directions. You can’t escape."
Keira followed his instructions and saw dozens of black cars guarding the vehicle they were in.
Keira looked at Thomas, giving Lewis a glance. ’If we kidnap him, threaten others, then escape as refugees, how about it?’
Lewis, however, shook his head slightly, giving a look toward Thomas’s left hand.
His left hand was always resting at his waist, where there was a gun.
Keira understood, Lewis ant that if she dared to act recklessly, Thomas could kill her with one shot.
Even if she acted quickly, the car’s interior space was too narrow.
Keira sighed in resignation.
The car swaggered through the bustling city before finally reaching the coastline. Looking at the vast blue ocean, Keira found it amusing.
Having co to save her mother, was this just a one-day tour of the South family’s island?
Is she really going to be sent back just like that?
Keira narrowed her eyes.
But Thomas didn’t give her any chance to argue. Upon arrival, he had the bodyguards throw the two onto a boat, and waved grandly. "Start the boat directly, send them away!"
