Chapter 271
Kyler set down his coffee mug and walked over to take little Jonas from Addison. “Whose kid is this?” He asked
Addison rolled her eyes, massaging her aching shoulders “Who else’s could it be, if not that hussy Natalia?”
‘Natalia’s kid?” Kyler was puzzled ‘When did she have a kid this big?! ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
He remembered Natalia being pregnant five years ago, but he’d heard the baby had died shortly after birth
Addison glared at Kyler I said it’s her and Magnus kid. This is the kid everyone thought died five years ago. Magnus has been hiding him!
She grimaced “That woman made our daughter’s life a living hell, and now she’s living happily. She even has a grown kid I swear, I won’t let her live comfortably!”
Kyler laid the still unconscious Jonas on the large leather sofa, asking doubtfully, “What do you plan to do? How did you get her kid? Kidnapping is illegal, you know!”
Addison gritted her teeth. “Illegal? I’m not afraid to die to avenge my daughter Unlike you, who’s always moping around
Kyler was taken aback by Addison’s harsh words but didn’t say anything else.
“Damn Natalia, I’ll make sure you pay a heavy price! It’s because of you that my daughter’s life is ruined,” Addison yelled hysterically, her eyes cold as she looked at Jonas
on the sofa
Kyler was stunned. He felt Addison was losing her mind just like Kendra had. “So what’s the plan? Even though Kendra was now like this because of Natalia, it was Magnus who did it. The kid is innocent. We can’t harm a child”
“If you hadn’t brought Natalia home all those years ago, she wouldn’t have ruined Kendra’s life!” Addison shot Kyler a venomous look before dialing Natalia
She’d paid a hefty sum to a private investigator to get this number, preparing herself to take Natalia down
Natalia was frantically driving after Addison. She was certain Addison had taken Jonas to her house She just didn’t know what the unhinged Addison would do to Jonas She prayed Addison wouldn’t harm him!
As she was praying her phone rang It was a familiar number she had not saved in her contacts
Who could be calling her? Natalia thought for a moment, and then it hit her, Addison! She quickly answered the call. As expected, it was Addison’s voice. “Natalia, your son
15 with me”
“Mrs. Clarkson, have you lost your mind? You’ve kidnapped my son. What do you want? Natalia’s heart pounded as she tried to keep her voice steady.
“Ha–ha Addison’s laughter echoed through the phone. “Natalia, are you scared now? Scared that I might kill your son?”
Natalia was horrified “Addison, whatever your grudge is, take it out on me. Don’t hurt my son! This insane woman, if she dared to hurt Jonas, Natalia would make her payl
She was not the same Natalia as five years ago. She owed them nothing!
“Oh Natalia, you sound so righteous. Where was this righteousness when you were ruining my daughter’s life? Addison taunted. “Now, come to my house immediately. I want you to see how I’m going to torture your son.”
“Okay! I’m on my way Don’t hurt him! You’re going to harm a child, heartless Natalia’s words were cut off as Addison hung up the call.
Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Natalia felt more unsettled. She floored the accelerator, wishing she could fly to Addison’s house.
Soon, she pulled up in front of the Clarkson family home. She had lived in this house for fifteen years. She didn’t even wait for the car to come to a complete stop before she stumbled out, calling out, Jonas? Jonas?”
Kyler watched as Natalia entered. She had only grown more beautiful over the years. Seeing the girl he had raised, Kyler felt a wave of emotions. He turned away, unable to
face Natalia
But Addison was thrilled. She jumped up from the sofa, taunting Natalia, “You sure got here fast!
“Addison, where’s my son? Natalia was frantic. She searched the room, spotting Jonas on the sofa. Her heart eased a bit.
“You want your son unharmed? Easy” Addison got up, holding a kitchen knife. She walked over to Natalia, her voice filled with malice, “As long as you’re willing to scar your face, I promise your son will be unharmed
Natalia was shocked. She had never expected Addison to propose such a thing. She looked at Jonas on the sofa and quickly walked over, but Addison blocked her way
“What, can’t bear to do it? Addison sneered “I knew it, you can’t bear to mar your pretty little face! It’s that seductive face of yours that had Magnus head over heels, and do the unforgivable to my daughter! Today, you either scar that face, or I’ll do it for you!”
With that Addison tossed the kitchen knife at Natalia’s feet. Your beauty, or your son. You choose”
The sharp knife clattered on the floor, catching the light ominously Natalia coolly met Addison’s gaze
This woman had gone mad
Natalia glanced back at kyler, standing by the French windows. The man who had raised her for fifteen years was pretending he saw nothing
Five years. Was it time that had forgotten the human heart, or was it the human heart that was naturally cruel?
“Dad, her voice was icy as she addressed Kyler, “are you really going to let your wife harm a child like this?”
Slowly, Kyler turned around, his expression serious “Addison, let the child go,” he ordered sternly
Addison was taken aback, then exploded. “Kyler, have you seen what’s become of our daughter? And you’re still siding with this child who was born out of wedlock! Are you out of your mind?”
