Scum Daddy Dreams Of Stealing My Mommy! Chapter 221: Christopher Hart! What gives you the right to h
"President Hart, we’ve been following that Jacob Garcia for two days now and haven’t found him contacting Lily Garcia. This guy is just indulging in eating, drinking, and rrymaking all day long—a typical prodigal son."
Christopher Hart slightly furrowed his brows, thinking could this kid be lying, just trying to con money out of Alia?
But that’s not right either...
Lucas King also thought of this, "Do you think... maybe he doesn’t even know about his sister’s situation and just wants to scam so money from his sister-in-law?"
Christopher Hart sat down behind his desk and looked up at him, "If Lily hasn’t contacted him, how would he know that we are looking for her?"
So the news must have still co from Lily herself.
"Oh, that’s true..." Lucas King was puzzled and said curiously, "This Lily is really sothing! She’s under house arrest and has to report to the police every week, but there’s no news from the police about her now."
Christopher was about to open a file and start working, but he paused at his words and looked up thoughtfully.
Lucas King spoke seriously, "President Hart, have you thought of sothing?"
He didn’t answer, suddenly stood up, and walked outside, "Is soone still following that kid?"
Lucas quickly turned and caught up, "President Hart, are you going to see him personally? We’re still following him! He drank too much with a bunch of people last night and is still passed out in the hotel..."
Christopher thought, since Lily isn’t even reporting to the police, she must have decided to go all out.
With a child in her womb, even if the police found her, she couldn’t be detained.
Relying on this get-out-of-jail-free card, she must be plotting sothing bigger.
To avoid any prolonged complications, we must find her soon.
On the way, Lucas called the bodyguards responsible for tracking Jacob Garcia. When they arrived at the hotel, the manager of the hotel rooms was already waiting.
By regulations, the hotel must protect the privacy of its guests.
But Christopher said one thing: If my brother-in-law gets into trouble at your hotel, can you replace him?
— frightened, the manager personally swiped open the room door.
Inside one room, five or six n and won were asleep.
People on the two beds, people on the sofa, people on the carpet...
The manager was also stunned by the scene.
Lucas King struggled to make his way through the room and finally found Jacob Garcia on the carpet inside the bed.
The other people, already woken up by the bodyguards, were all driven out.
The hotel staff was also asked to leave.
The door closed, leaving only Jacob Garcia and Christopher Hart’s group in the room.
"President Hart, he won’t wake up..."
"Take him to the bathroom and splash so water on him."
He’s no good anyway, suffering a bit and having a hard ti is just disciplining the son for his forr father-in-law.
The bodyguards dragged the still-drunk Jacob Garcia into the bathroom and showered him.
Soon, there were sounds of screaming and scuffling inside, but it quieted down in just a few seconds.
Jacob Garcia was dragged out like a small chicken being picked up and thrown in front of Christopher Hart.
Christopher Hart, full of disdain, didn’t even sit down and stood there loftily looking down at his future brother-in-law, "Where is Lily?"
Jacob, now sober but with bloodshot eyes, startled at the question, raised his wet face and after recognizing him, said angrily and surprisingly, "Christopher... Christopher Hart?"
"I asked, where is Lily?" The man repeated emotionlessly.
Jacob wiped his face and lazily sat cross-legged on the carpet, "I was wondering... Alia wouldn’t give money, she’s damn stingy, and next thing I know, you’re sent to handle ! My mom and sister were right, that woman is really bad!"
"Lucas, slap him."
His woman, the mother of his child; whether she is good or bad, it’s not for others to judge.
With two "smacks," Jacob’s pretty white face was slapped by the bodyguard, spinning like a rattle, blood overflowing from the corners of his mouth.
Dazed for a mont, the pretty face turned back, burning with anger, "Christopher Hart! What right do you have to hit !"
"Where is Lily? This is your last chance..."
"I won’t tell you! What can you do to ?"
Christopher’s lips tightened, and his chin dipped slightly, "It seems his drunk hasn’t worn off yet, continue..."
"Yes," Lucas responded and signaled the bodyguards to drag him back into the bathroom.
Strip off his clothes, turn the cold water to the maximum, and spray him with it.
It was deep autumn, and the mornings and evenings were chilly.
The blast of cold water was like ice knives, painfully stinging the skin.
Jacob, pampered since childhood, had never suffered this tornt and soon started wailing for rcy.
"I’ll talk! I’ll talk!"
The bodyguard threw him a towel, and he shakily wrapped himself in it, tremblingly walking out.
"She... a few nights ago, she borrowed a passerby’s phone to call , asked to send her so money, I said I had none, she cursed at and hung up."
"Later... early the next morning, she called again from a strange number, saying there was a chance to make money, asking if I was in..."
"I thought to myself, if it was really lucrative she would definitely have done it sneakily herself, why would she call ? I refused."
"But she said it was true, she planned to steal away your child with Alia and definitely get a big sum of money!"
"As soon as I heard it, I thought, isn’t this kidnapping? Even if we really got the money, I wouldn’t be alive to spend it! I still didn’t agree..."
"She persuaded for a long ti, I asked her where she was, she said at a friend’s house, also said she can’t show up now, said you guys were looking for her..."
"Later I pretended to agree, then she said... to wait for news, and once everything was ready, she would notify ."
"But after hanging up, I thought about it and still felt it wasn’t right, I didn’t want to end up in jail... but I really was broke, so I thought of a way, using my sister’s information to approach Alia, hoping to get so money..."
"But who knew, Alia is not the sa pushover she used to be... not a single penny, completely unsympathetic!"
Jacob Garcia recounted intermittently and tentatively, and by the end, he even seed aggrieved, his eyes reddening, whether from the urge to cry or not.
After listening, Christopher, seeing he didn’t seem to be lying, gave Lucas a glance.
Lucas imdiately threw him a blanket.
Jacob thanked him repeatedly, wrapping the blanket around himself.
Observing him, Christopher thought, this kid doesn’t seem all bad, just a bit of a fool, scared to do anything truly evil, still holding onto the most basic sense of right and wrong.
Maybe giving him a push could reduce one less scum and failure in society.
"You want money, it’s not impossible," Christopher suddenly spoke up, catching Jacob’s attention.
He looked up, seeing the powerful man before him, "You... you would give ?"
"Wait for your sister to contact you again, and tell imdiately," Christopher said without hesitation. "I won’t let you be at a loss."
Jacob Garcia nodded repeatedly without hesitation, "Okay! Okay! As soon as she contacts , I’ll tell you!"
"Do you still have those unfamiliar numbers in your phone?"
"I should have... But there are too many strange numbers on my phone, and I don’t rember which one it was..."
Christopher had soone bring his phone over, checked it, and took pictures of all the unfamiliar numbers.
"Rember what I said, you won’t miss out on your reward." Tossing the phone back to him, Christopher left with his entourage majestically.
The inexperienced prodigal watched them leave and, after a while, breathed a sigh of relief and slumped to the ground.
A mont later, he ca back to his senses and quickly grabbed his phone, muttering prayers.
"Lily, you’d better call! My allowance completely depends on you!"
In the hotel elevator, Christopher’s lips were tightly pursed, his presence formidable.
After a long while, he suddenly said, "The person who took in Lily might well be that bastard’s father. If we can find Lily, we’ll definitely find out how the kid ca about."
Lucas King nodded, "Definitely! No one would take in such a hot potato otherwise."
After all, the incident had stirred quite a storm online recently.
Their family and friends all knew about it and knew what kind of person Lily was.
Taking her in now would an trouble and offending Christopher Hart—who would want that?
"Keep looking, also, send a few more people to follow the kids."
Christopher, suspecting that Lily might have help, beca even more cautious.
Nothing could go wrong with the kids; otherwise, she would never forgive him.
The journey to win her back was long, and he didn’t want to add any more obstacles between them.
————
Lily lay in bed scrolling through her phone until her eyes blurred.
The room door sound, and she imdiately sat up, scolding the man in delivery attire who entered, "It’s already half-past one, are you trying to starve to death?!"
The delivery guy, legs weak from exhaustion, still hurriedly brought the packed lunch to the bedside, explaining, "Today was busy, I thought to run more, earn a bit more. This will... you’ll need money for giving birth, raising the child..."
Hungry as Lily was, her scolding was still full of vigor, "With the little money you make from deliveries, you think you can support and the child? Ridiculous!"
The man, embarrassed, said, "Lily... actually, as a delivery guy, if you work hard... making over ten thousand a month is quite common, enough to support you and—"
"Even making ten thousand a month, it’s still not enough for a pair of my shoes!"
The man, at a loss for words, sat down, exhausted.
Lily glanced at him disdainfully and looked down to start eating.
But upon slling the food, she couldn’t help but gag and turned to grab the trash can and vomit.
There was nothing left in her stomach, and she just vomited so acidic fluid. She retched for a while, and the mucus she spat out was streaked with blood.
The man, terrified, steadied her and asked with concern, "Lily, what’s wrong... there’s blood, should... should we go see a doctor?"
"No..." Lily, too weak to speak, shook her head and lay back down.
After a while, she muttered resentfully, "I never expected...pregnancy to be this torturous, it’s practically killing ..."
The man returned with warm water, didn’t say a word but just helped her drink a little.
Seeing her complexion improve sowhat, the man timidly asked, "Lily... you planned this from the start, right... That day, you invited in... planning for this day, right?"
A month ago, Lily had fractured her leg and was staying in a property owned by Fiona Marshall.
Sotis, when Fiona had no ti to bring food, she had to order takeout.
Unexpectedly, the delivery guy turned out to be an old middle school classmate.
Reunited after many years, the delivery guy was pleasantly surprised.
Seeing her cripple and unable to move around, the man offered to add each other on WhatsApp, telling her to just inform him what she wanted to eat, and he would deliver it.
Initially, Lily was disdainful.
But after learning that Christopher had obtained evidence of their organ trading, and she might not escape prison, she racked her brains on how to flee.
Then, an idea struck her.
She contacted her old classmate, saying she wanted so fruit.
He bought and delivered it.
She then invited him in and seductively offered herself...
n usually don’t lose out on such things, and who could refuse such an offer?
Thus, even limping on one leg, Lily successfully executed her plan.
Worrying that she might not get pregnant the first ti, she t him a couple more tis, each more than once—until the police took her away to the detention center.
Actually, she wasn’t sure she could get pregnant; it was a gamble.
Unexpectedly, providence still aided her.
Hearing the man bring up the matter again, indignation surged in her heart. She scornfully retorted, "Yes! So what? You got a great deal and even a child out of it, did you lose out?"
"I... I didn’t an that, it’s just that, even if you evade now, once the child is born, you’ll still have to go back, to prison..."
"There’s still breastfeeding after the child is born! It’s too early! Why worry about that now!"
"I... I’m just worried about you..." the man took her hand, trying to please, "No matter what, I will listen to you, happiness ca so unexpectedly, I will cherish it."
"..." Lily was extrely resistant inside, but to continue manipulating this fool, she just let him hold her hand.
Seeing her in such a poor state, the man tried to cheer her up and suddenly rembered sothing, hurriedly saying, "Right, I’ve been observing the past few days and noticed they have a dog at ho. They take it out for a walk every night. I think... this might be an opportunity!"
Sure enough, Lily’s face brightened up imdiately at this news, "Really? That’s a godsend! Make sure you seize the opportunity! Rember, try to snatch two kids!"
The man, troubled, said, "It’s a bit difficult for one person... to take care of two kids."
"Idiot!" Lily cursed, then paused, "Right! I can find you so help, my brother! But he’s too timid, and a big mouth, we can’t tell him about this in advance."
"What do we do then? If the opportunity cos and passes quickly..."
Lily thought for a mont, reassured, "Just tell when you have a chance, I’ll arrange it."
"Okay."
The man nodded in agreent, yet hesitated, "Lily... doing this, I’ll... definitely be arrested by the police. If I get sentenced, will... will you take the child and wait for to get out?"
Lily, seeing the man’s hesitant face, fearing he might back out at the last mont, smiled and pulled him closer, leaning into his arms to brainwash him again, "Don’t worry... I’m just scaring them, making them regret how they treated back then; it’s not like I’ll kill anyone. Even if it’s illegal, it won’t be for many years..."
The man hugged her, his rationality dissipating in the smoke, "Lily... for you, I... I’ve really thrown myself into this, you absolutely can’t betray ..."
