Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 1524 The Man Who BetRhysed His Sister

"Is Rhys here?" Belle was having lunch when she heard the news from her youngest son, Santiago. She stood up, feeling interested in the turns in events. However, Calvin's face fell in an instant. He cast a glance at his beloved wife and said, "Is Lottie here as well?"

"Aunt Lottie is here too. They're all at the entrance of the village and want to come in." Santiago got up and left while Jazelle asked, "Is Rhys the man who appeared on the Billionaires List some time ago?" "Yes." Calvin was sitting opposite Jazelle and Lamar. As Jazelle inquired, he gave her the answer.

Jazelle asked again, "Is their daughter here too?"

Belle was also unclear about this matter. She looked inquiringly at her son, who sat beside her. Jepherson then replied, "I've no clue. Santiago went to take a look."

"Let's continue our lunch then," Belle said, still a little concerned. Didn't they say that Deanna was abroad? Why the sudden appearance?

Worried, she stood up after eating some food. Although it was somewhat rude to leave halfway through lunch, she still said, "Rhys's wife, Lottie, is my good friend. Now that she's here, I can't just sit here. She had been staying abroad, and I don't know why she is here. I'm going to have a look. Calvin will keep you company."

Raeleigh glanced at Jepherson, who then got up and said, "I'll also go and have a look."

The mother and son turned around and went outside, whereas Calvin remained motionless. Raeleigh cogitated for a moment before she spoke a few words in Jazelle's ear. After that, Jazelle gazed at her and said, "Really? Go ahead then. Xanthus, you go too."

As Jazelle spoke, Raeleigh stood up, but she didn't let Xanthus accompany her.

"Xanthus, you'd better stay here to keep them company."

As Raeleigh finished her words, she turned and went outside. Coming out of the door, she headed for the entrance of the village right away. At this time, many villagers had assembled here and were looking in that direction. Following the crowd, Raeleigh also did the same. Some people were standing at the entrance of the village, which was swamped with numerous cars. Jepherson and the others were there too. Afterward, Raeleigh approached them and saw Rhys, Lottie, and Zorion, who had just gotten out of their car.

After a brief pause, she walked toward Jepherson.

"Lottie." Seeing Lottie, Belle walked over without delay. Lottie was like a cat on a hot tin roof. When she saw Belle, she took Belle's hand right away and held it tightly while saying, "Deanna has been kidnapped. She's in the village."

Surprised, Belle turned around and looked at Raeleigh, who was beside her. She couldn't react in time to the news. Seeing that Lottie was about to cry out in trepidation, she believed that this was not a scam. "Rhys?"

Rhys's expression didn't look good either. "Jacky has kidnapped Deanna. I won't let him off. Tell Jacky that if I don't see Deanna in an hour, I'll destroy this freaking village."

"Mr. Atkinson, perhaps you've mistaken?" Santiago asked from the side. Rhys then snorted, "I know very well what this is all about. If Jacky doesn't hand over Deanna, he will have to bear the consequences." Turning around, Rhys returned to the car. Lottie followed suit and sat inside it dazedly.

"Has this Jacky gone mad?" Lottie was confused by Jacky's action. To her, he had gone too far. They had already given him many chances. They had always complied when he requested to see their daughter. How was he still not satisfied?

If they didn't want to let him live, he would have died long ago.

In the end, he still abducted their daughter.

Leaning in Rhys's arms, she said, "I don't know if Deanna is fine. She's so heavily pregnant. Did she sleep and eat well?"

He threw a glance at his wife. "I think she must be in a better state than you. You've been fretting about her, but I doubt if she's doing the same for you."

Even though he pulled a long face and had brought his men to the entrance of Waverly Village, Jacky's courage did gain his recognition. If it were someone else, they would have begged for mercy a long time ago. Jacky dared to kidnap his daughter without giving a damn who he was. There were very few young people nowadays who didn't prioritize worldly possessions.

Rhys was aware of what was going on. He was only here to put on an act and let the people in Capital City know that someone had dared to lay a finger on his daughter.

He was a big shot in Capital City, whereas Jacky was a nobody from Waverly Village. How dare he kidnap his daughter!

All this was Rhys's countermove.

Lottie was sad, but he couldn't tell her the truth. He could only hold and comfort her softly.

Seeing that both of them had gone into the car, Belle looked strangely at Zorion, who was standing opposite to her, and asked, "Zorion, wasn't Deanna abroad? Why did she come back?" "It's a long story. I will explain it to you later." Zorion had no choice but to answer so at the moment. He could not go back to see his parents because it was he who betRhysed his sister. Rubbing his forehead, he felt a little uncomfortable and coughed twice.

"Mr. Zorion, Mr. Rhys wants you in his car now. He seems to have something to say to you," said the chauffeur after getting off the car. Only then did Zorion turn and go back.

The Atkinson family's vehicle was a luxurious van. Rhys and his wife sat inside and gazed at their son. Even if Rhys did not say it, Lottie knew that this matter had something to do with her son. For a moment, Lottie was disappointed. The two children of hers had a strong sibling bond since childhood. She had never thought that it was her son who betRhysed her daughter in the end.

Rhys summoned Zorion into the car. He then looked at his son, who was sick and had a pallid complexion. How could he not worry about his son?

Rhys ordered the chauffeur to get off. Thus, there were only the three of them in the car. He then asked his son, "Does this have anything to do with you?"

Zorion coughed. Lottie was heartbroken that she no longer wanted to know the truth. Both Zorion and Deanna were her children, and she would be content as long as they were fine. She had a rough idea about what was going on. If it hadn't been for Jacky, Zorion wouldn't have done this. Since this was the case, there was no need to pressure him into admitting it.

However, Rhys held his wife tightly and did not allow her to be soft-hearted at this moment. If she could not bear it, his plan would be messed up. He wouldn't allow that to happen. Sure enough, Zorion admitted it.

Zorion said, "Rossie has been kidnapped by Jacky. He threatened to let his man marry her unless I deceived Deanna into coming back."

"How dare you betRhys your sister!"

Rhys snorted. Zorion had indeed let him down, but he was his son after all. Rhys didn't beat him, nor did he let him off. "You don't have to do anything else hereafter. I have a piece of land in the countryside. Go and farm it."

Lottie looked at her husband. "The land is full of ice and snow. What do you want him to farm?"

Rhys remained silent with a darkened expression.

"Zorion is always coughing. The doctor said that he is not as healthy as before due to the broken relationship. With his weak body, I don't think it's a good idea to let him farm in the countryside.."

"If he had seen this coming, he wouldn't have betRhysed his sister for a woman," Rhys said. Lottie's heart skipped a beat, and she did not dare to speak up for Zorion anymore.
