Love in Prime Years

Chapter53 Save Leigh

Lillian seemed to be abducted as well. Lawrence stood in the top of the mountain impassively.

Apparently, he came here to save Lillian.

The abductors took Lillian and Leigh to the edge of the cliff. And they would fall down the cliff if the

abductors pushed slightly.

“Leigh!”

Amelia stared at Leigh who was pinned to the ground by two sturdy men. She could not hold her tears

back seeing that. Leigh was looking worn. But luckily, they did not wound him. It seemed that he did not

suffer a lot being abducted.

He was only three years old after all. He would be scared when he faced the terrifying abductors no

matter how clever and mature he was.

He was obviously terrified. But when he saw Amelia cried, there was a worried and anxious expression

on his face instead.

“Mom, don’t cry.”

A smile lifted the corner of his mouth, brightening his face.

“Mom, I’m OK. I do not get injured. I’m fine. Do not cry.”

“Leigh, I won’t cry now.” She did not want him to worry about her so she replied immediately.

Thinking of what the abductor had said to her, she looked at them and spoke anxiously, “I’ve given you

the money. Let go of him!”

“Mr. Dominic, have you made up your mind? Which do you want to save? The kid or the woman?” The

abductor pointed at Leigh and Lillian, speaking to Lawrence wickedly.

The expression on Amelia’s face suddenly changed.

She shouted at the head of abductors angrily, “Let go of my son! You’ve promised! You said that you

won’t hurt him as long as I give you the money.”

The abductor did not feel guilty at all, “Right, I’ve promised you that he will be safe if you give us the

money. And look, how well he looks. I do not hurt him.”

“But now his life depends on Mr. Dominic’s decision. He will survive and live long if Mr. Dominic

chooses him.”

“Mr. Dominic, which of them do you want to save? The kid or the woman?” The abductor grinned

wickedly. Angered by this scene, Amelia wanted to kill him right away.

“Let go of them.” Lawrence glanced at Amelia with mixed feelings. He did not expect that she needed

the money to save Leigh.

she must be desperate so that she would sell her first dance in Snowhite Nightclub last night.

But he trampled on her dignity.

His stomach was in knots when he thought of that. But then he got angry again when he thought

Amelia would grovel like that in order to save the bastard child.

“Mr. Dominic, I’ve said that only one of them will survive today.”

“Let go of them, I’ll give you one hundred million dollars.”

Lawrence stared at the boss coldly. He was so forbidding that his glare even daunted the boss. But the

abductor forced himself to speak when he thought what Lillian had said to him, “Mr. Dominic, I’ll count

to three. If you still cannot make the decision, both of them will die.”

“One!”

“Lawrence, save Leigh, I beg of you! Save him!”

Amelia was afraid that he would choose Lillian and abandon Leigh. She said in a choked voice,

“Lawrence, I did not lie to you. Leigh is your son. The result of the paternity test is true. He really is your

son. You can’t let him die. Lawrence, I’m begging you. Could you please save him?”

Lillian’s eyes brimmed with tears. She stared at Lawrence with sadness, “Lawrence, ignore me! You

should save Leigh.”

“Although Amelia has done something bad to me, I still regard her as my sister. We are not related by

blood, but we’ve grown up together. And our friendship will never end.”

“Lawrence, I don’t want to upset her. So, ignore me, Lawrence. I know you care about me. But I won’t

blame you if you choose Leigh instead of me. I won’t blame you, really.”

Suddenly, the abductor’s knife scratched Lillian’s neck. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

She couldn’t resist crying with pain. But then she gave a tender smile to Lawrence.

“Lawrence, it does not hurt. Really, I do not feel the pain at all. Lawrence, save Leigh. He’s just a kid.

He’s more important than me.”

Lillian kept asking Lawrence to save Leigh. But Amelia knew she was acting.

Lawrence cared about Lillian so much. He would never abandon her if she kept saying this.

“Two!”

Amelia’s heart was in her mouth when she heard this.

She stepped forward and tugged at Lawrence’s sleeve, “Lawrence, save Leigh. He will die if you don’t

save him.”

“Lawrence, you can’t abandon him. He’s our son!”

“Three!”

The abductor sneered, “Mr. Dominic, still haven’t decided yet?”

Amelia could not hide her fear anymore, so she kneel down, crying, “Lawrence, save Leigh, I beg of

you! Save him! Save our son!”

Lillian was still acting, “Lawrence, hurry up. Ignore me and choose Leigh. Otherwise, they will kill him.

Lawrence, say it now.”

“I won’t let you hurt Lillian.”

Lawrence finally spoke. Then a smile lifted the corner of Lillian’s mouth. But Amelia was devastated.

He would not allow the abductors to hurt Lillian, then her son would die instead.

No! She could not accept this.

“Lawrence, save Leigh. I’m begging you, save him!”

Groveling, Amelia kowtowed to Lawrence.

Her forehead was oozing blood. But she kept kowtowing as if she did not feel the pain.

“Lawrence, save him please. I can’t live without him. I can’t lose him.”

“Lawrence, please, please…”

Her face was covered in blood and tears. She grabbed Lawrence’s wrist firmly, as if she was grabbing

the drifting wood in the sea.

“Lawrence, could you please save him? I will do anything for you as long as you save him. Anything! I

can even be your servant.”

“Lawrence, save him, please.”
