Chapter 612 That night, kidnapping Ramona was a risky business.

Josiah's original plan was to poison Victor that very night, seize the Myers family's fortune, and then take off with Pearl and Dorothy.

With Hanson Ford buying them stime, their escape would have been smooth.

But then he found out Ramona had gone senile, which seemed like a stroke of luck.

So, he let his guard down a bit.

That was the opening Gregory needed.

Josiah's resolve hardened, and he declared coldly, "I have no wife and children." They were on the brink of crossing the border, just a boat ride away from freedom.

To Josiah, Gregory was just a big fish in the small pond of Vista Town.

Josiah waved his hand, commanding, "Set sail." The ship moved away from the shore.

"Greg..." Gregory's men panicked! Letting them get away would mean it'd be near impossible to track them down once they left Vista Town.

But Gregory just watched coldly, making no move.

He'd arrived a step too late; the targets were already on the boat. Trying to forcibly take them now would only lead to mutual destruction.

It wasn't necessary.

If Josiah wanted to play games, he was up for a round.

His gaze darkened as he turned to Pearl, saying, "Victor listens to you so well he'd even kidnap his own mother for you. You could've had an easy life with him, but you chose to run with this desperado, who's now abandoned you and his own daughter." Pearl glared at Gregory, shouting, "What do you know! He'll cback forand my daughter!" Gregory nodded, "Alright, let's see if you can wait that long." "What are you going to do!" Pearl was scared of Gregory but refused to beg.

She believed Josiah wouldn't really leave them behind.

"I'm telling you, if you do anything to me, you'll pay for it!" Retribution? Gregory had never believed in that, besides, dealing with trash like Pearl could be considered a public service. What retribution could he possibly face? But then he thought of Jane, of his child, and he took those words to heart.

"Don't worry, you won't die just yet." With a gesture, his men took Pearl and Dorothy and put them in the car.

Pearl was stunned; she had expected Gregory, with his reputation, to feed them to the sharks.

But then it dawned on her; Gregory wasn't after their lives, probably planning to use them as bait for a bigger catch.

After all, Josiah had taken the Myers family fortune with him.

And that was meant for Jane, which Gregory would undoubtedly want to reclaim.

But what Gregory didn't know was that Josiah had powerful backers abroad.

Ramona any ouldn't stay up late so after spending set twith her in the ICU, I helped her back to her room to rest.

Once she was asleep, I whispered to Christine, "I'll have Lucius take you e home. Istay with Ramona tonight." "No need, I'll stay with you until Gregory shows up, then I'll make my exit." Right after she finished, Lucius walked in.

"Jane, Gregory texted you but got no reply. I cto tell you, Gregory and I have to leave the country urgently. He's already at the airport; I'm heading there now."

"If you need anything and can't reach Gregory, call me. The people around you have a special way to get in touch with me." I checked my phone while listening, indeed there was a message from Gregory. "Alright, you better hurry." After Lucius left, I informed Christine and then stepped out to call Gregory, advising him to stay safe.

Returning to the room, I found Christine had already made herself comfortable on the sofa.

I sighed, "The sofa won't be comfortable. You should head home..." "It's fine, I'm too lazy to move now." She pulleddown to lie on the hospital bed beside her, "Don't stay up, get ssleep." Seeing her insistence, I relented, "Maybe we can squeeze in together? There should be enough space." "Nice try, but with that baby bump of yours, I'm not risking squishing my goddaughter." X
