Runaway Wife: Please, Have Another Baby!

Chapter 883: Chapter 883: A Slap (1)

Retracting his gaze, Sam slammed the door heavily. Inside the room, Gan Tang let out a slight sigh of relief and turned her small face towards the tiny air vent on the wall.

Through the window, she could see the outside sky and twinkling stars. The little figure raised her small hand to wipe her face.

"Mommy, don’t worry, I will find a way to escape."

...

...

Airport.

Moses, looking exhausted, sat in the back seat of the car. "Any news?"

Paul’s tone was somewhat dejected. "No trace of Xiaotang found."

After receiving the direction from the Duke Residence, Moses had chased all the way to F Country. Before coming, he had already instructed Paul to tell the subordinates here to investigate Barton’s information in advance.

Jessica frowned. "Could it be that we were wrong, and the one who took Gan Tang wasn’t Barton?"

"No way." Moses raised his face. "Huangfu Jue wouldn’t make such a mistake. That old fox must have transferred Xiaotang."

"How about..." Jessica sat up straight. "We go and capture that old fox, force him to comply."

"It’s not that simple." Moses furrowed his brows. "That old fox isn’t an ordinary character. If we make a mistake, it will only implicate Xiaotang."

If the plan succeeds, it’s fine, but if it fails, the other side might get desperate and directly kill Xiaotang, which would be a huge loss.

If this could be done, Huangfu Jue would have done it already.

Hesitant to act due to concern for the mouse, Moses did not dare to take risks lightly.

"Time is running out." Paul’s eyes fell on Moses’ pale face. "I think we should find a place to settle first and then come up with a plan." noveldrama

Moses nodded, and the car drove out of the airport towards the urban area.

"Have we found information about that bodyguard?"

"Yes, we have." Paul passed the computer over and placed it on Moses’s lap. "His name is Sam. He entered the Duke Residence a year ago. His identity and various information are all fabricated. If I’m right, he should be Barton’s spy planted beside Huangfu Jue."

"Xiaotang hadn’t returned to the Duke Residence at that time. Does that mean their target was Huangfu Jue?" Jessica asked.

Paul shrugged. "When F Country had a coup, he took the opportunity to annex three territories in the Northwest. It seems this guy not only wants to be the President of F Country, but he also harbors ambitions towards A Country."

While the two discussed, Moses did not speak, only flipping through the information on General Barton in his hands again.

Noticing his educational background, he raised his face to look at Paul.

"He was a schoolmate of King Gula?"

"Not just schoolmates, but classmates. They seemed to have had a good relationship back then, and King Gula trusted him greatly. Hence, he handed over the military authority to him." Paul shook his head lightly. "Unfortunately, he trusted the wrong person. General Barton not only failed to help him in crucial times, but also fiercely betrayed Mr. King. If General Barton’s army had responded in time, the Rebel Army wouldn’t have succeeded."

Jessica frowned. "So, the coup in the Gula Dynasty, he has a significant role in it."

"Indeed!" Paul turned his gaze to the Splendid Royal Palace by the roadside. "There were rumors back then that he had a grudge with the King over his infatuation with the Queen. But so many years have passed, except for him, who can say for sure what’s true or not!"

Jessica shook her head and sighed, while Moses’s eyes flickered with a sharp, cold light.
