"Yes, it's true I met up with my biological father, but it was just a one-time thing. I don't want to go back to him at all! Otherwise, I would've done it ages ago. Dad, I'm really grateful to you for taking me in and looking after me all these years. That's why I feel like you're my real father, even more real than those who share the same blood.

"How could you unjustly accuse me and Mom like that? Sherman is the one spouting nonsense here. He's trying to push all the blame onto us. Dad, you have to wake up and see the truth!"

Karen nodded along, but her heart was racing. 'When did Sadie meet Esmond? How did Sherman know when I don't even know? Seems like Sadie does have something to do with Rita's kidnapping. I have to settle things and get Sherman out of here.'

Karen never had the thought of rekindling her relationship with Esmond. The only thing she wanted then was to peacefully give birth to her son. Everything in the Russell family would eventually go to her son, and she would be able to enjoy a peaceful old age. That dream was on the brink of shattering because of Sadie's doing!

As skepticism clouded Vince's mind, Sherman tactfully reminded him, "Vince, I have no idea how many times Sadie has met with her biological father, but I did catch her at it one time. I happen to have the surveillance footage in my possession. Feel free to have a look at it if you want. After watching it, you'll know if I'm telling the truth or not."

Rita's whereabouts were still unknown, so Sherman did not have time to waste with this family anymore. With a wave of his hand, two burly men stepped forward to restrain Sadie.

She screamed, "Let me go! What are you doing?!"

Karen rushed forward, but as a pregnant woman, she stood no chance against the two towering bodyguards. Out of consideration for her unborn baby, they did not lay a hand on Karen, but their mere presence was enough to force her back.

Vince hurriedly pulled Karen aside. "You're carrying a child. Can't you be more careful?"

Karen turned and shook his arm. "Hurry, make Sherman let Sadie go! How could he treat Sadie like this? She's been pampered like a princess ever since she moved in here... How will she be able to endure this?"

"Yes, pampered like a princess by the Russell family, yet she had the nerve to hurt Rita! Vince, if I were you, I wouldn't do what your wife said. You must have doubts in your mind too, right? Whether or not Sadie has anything to do with Rita's kidnapping? I'll bring Sadie back if she has nothing to do with it. Take her away, boys!"

Upon hearing Sherman's command, the two burly men took Sadie to another room in the mansion. Two groups of bodyguards immediately stood guard inside and outside of the room.

Sherman was sure that Sadie would quickly confess under such a condition. He did not go inside the room himself as he did not want to watch the interrogation. Instead, he sat back down on the soda. He even casually invited Vince and Karen to sit with him.

Karen trembled with fear when she heard Sadie's screams coming out of the room.
