“Just you all wait! I won’t let any of you off the hook!” Despite her obvious dishevelment, Lynda was visibly agitated as she spewed a continuous stream of insults at Cynthia. 

With an expressionless face, Cynthia walked up to her. She looked down at her for a moment from her superior position, then pulled back her hand and harshly slapped her across the face. 

Lynda’s face instantly swelled up on one side. She glared at Cynthia venomously. “Do you really think you can get away with this so easily? Oh, don’t worry, there will be someone who will avenge me!” 

At that moment, Cynthia’s entire focus was on the children, and she didn’t catch the hidden implications in her words. With an indifferent expression, she said, “I will do everything in my power to ensure you rot in jail.” 

“You don’t have that right!” Lynda shouted at the top of her lungs, but no one paid her any attention. 

Even Cynthia merely gave her a fleeting glance before returning to the children’s side once again. 

Outside the warehouse, Cynthia finally expressed her sincere gratitude to Colton. “I owe you for earlier. Thank you.” 

Colton looked down at her with a deep, intense gaze. “Is what you just said to Linda true? 

Cynthia fell silent for a moment, then suddenly broke into a smile. “If I hadn’t said that at that time, she would have targeted the children and the consequences of that would have been even more dire…” 

“Every word you just said was a lie?” Colton asked, his tone icy. 

Cynthia nodded without any hesitation.. 

In that fleeting moment, Colton’s expression was unreadable. However, just then, Lukas suddenly cried out in a feeble voice, “Mommy, my hand hurts.” 

Cynthia quickly lowered her gaze, only to find the area where Lukas had been injured before was now severely swollen. The joint was even tinged with a purplish–red bruise, making it look incredibly horrifying. 

She had no time to argue with Colton. Swiftly, she scooped up Lukas and rushed toward the 

car.

Off to the side, Yoel was in a frenzy. His fist landed squarely on a burly man’s face, successfully making him spurt out a mouthful of blood.

Initially, he planned to throw a few more punches, but concern for Fergus stopped him. He scooped his son up and dashed out. 

As the lead bodyguard stepped forward to restrain Lynda, the latter unexpectedly opened her eyes. Gripping the dagger in her hand, she swung it at him viciously. 

Fortunately, the bodyguards were all battle–hardened. The moment Lynda opened her eyes, the lead bodyguard acted swiftly. Not only did he twist her wrist and snatch the dagger away, but he also pinned her to the ground.

In the moment she turned away, she didn’t see that Colton had quietly tucked away the object in his hand. 

Fortunately, Lynda had only tied the children to the chairs. She hadn’t actually lost her mind and abused them. 

The wounds on Fergus‘ arm had been fully bandaged, and throughout the process, he nestled comfortably in Yoel’s embrace. 

“Where’s Colton?” Yoel glanced over Cynthia’s shoulder, surprised not to see Colton’s figure. 

The events of today might not have been resolved so swiftly if it hadn’t been for the assistance of Colton. 

Cynthia shook his head. 

Her eyes 

darkened as she reflected on the words she had hastily spoken to Lynda. 

She had imagined countless scenarios in which Colton would discover the true origins of the two children, but she had never anticipated it would happen in this way. 

Yoel knew what she was thinking. He patted her shoulder and reassured her, “Don’t worry, if it really comes down to a custody battle, I’ll be there for you.” 

Cynthia didn’t respond to that; instead, she called Braxton and Flora to come over. Having learned from past experiences, she was hesitant to entrust her children to anyone else. She had no choice but to rely on them. 

After all, they were just children. Despite being at the hospital, Lukas and Luna were still 

somewhat shaken. They clung to Cynthia, finding comfort in her gentle whisee still

It wasn’t until the children had fallen asleep that Cynthia, with a serious expression, stepped out of the ward. She turned to Braxton and said, “Mr. Dakota, I’ll have to trouble you and Mrs. Dakota to look after the children. I need to make a trip to the police station. If they wake up, please comfort them for me.” 

Braxton solemnly promised, “Don’t worry, we will take good care of the children.” 

Only then did Cynthia drive to the police station. 

The police officer in charge of the case quickly came forward and talked about Lynda’s current situation. 

The kidnapping case they had encountered today could easily be classified as the most relaxed one they had ever handled. No sooner had they received the report than all the suspects at the scene were apprehended. Not only that, but each one was tied up tightly in an
