Chapter 592
The man was tightly wrapped in the bag, and he was still thrashing about in it, like a writhing maggot.
“Open it!” Maurice ordered his men.
Following Maurice’s order, the bodyguards immediately stepped forward and untied the bag, revealing the man inside, tightly bound.
It was none other than Rutherford!
As soon as the bag was taken from him, Rutherford knelt down, his head lowered. Without even clearly seeing who had caught him, he shouted, “Mr. Bowman, please forgive me. I’m sorry I couldn’t complete the mission. Please forgive me!”
Rutherford thought that since he hadn’t been able to accomplish the task that Jonathan had given him, Jonathan was certainly going to punish him! So he hastened to ask for mercy.
After pleading for a long time, he realized that there was no sound in front of him.
Rutherford was scared to the bone and raised his head nervously. To his greatest surprise, he didn’t see Jonathan’s frightening smile. Instead, he saw a strange face.
It seemed it wasn’t Jonathan who caught him!
At this moment, Rutherford became confident. If the man who caught him was not a real big shot, then he wasn’t scared at all.
Rutherford’s expression changed from humbleness to arrogance and malice.
“Who the hell are you? How dare you catch me! You better go to the underworld and ask about me! I’m definitely not the guy you want to mess with!”
There wasn’t a trace of humility on Rutherford’s face right now.
Casting a pitiful look at the arrogant Rutherford, Corbin snapped at him, “Rutherford, I advise you to be honest. The person standing in front of you is the CEO of the Moran Group, Maurice Moran.”
As soon as Corbin revealed Maurice’s identity, Rutherford’s face changed drastically. His eyes widened in shock and he felt a shiver run through him.
It was Maurice who kidnapped him!
But why?
Then, Rutherford thought of the three kids he tried to kidnap during the day. One of them said that he was a member of the Moran family…
Damn! He messed with the wrong person this time!
“Mr. Moran! I so sorry. I really didn’t mean to kidnap your family member. Please forgive me and spare my life!” Rutherford begged.
Rutherford knew when to eat humble pie and when to hold his head high. He immediately began to beg for mercy, with tears running down his cheeks.
“Shut up!” Maurice roared, glaring coldly at the man kneeling in front of him. Rutherford was so scared that he didn’t dare to say a word again.
“Just now, you mentioned Mr. Bowman, did you refer to Jonathan?” Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Rutherford nodded quickly.
Jonathan was Aileen and Adrian’s biological father. Why would he kidnap his own children?
Maurice was shocked and confused.
“Why didn’t Jonathan come to meet the twins directly? Isn’t he their father?” Maurice asked coldly.
Rutherford was stunned by the question and didn’t know what to answer. He was just a goon the bigwigs paid to do their dirty jobs. How could he know so much?
Rutherford explained helplessly, “Mr. Moran, I’m just paid with money to do things. Mr. Bowman didn’t tell me anything. Oh, I remember! He had asked me to get a woman named Eliana Pierce. That woman was as cunning as a fox and I wasn’t able to get her. It was only after that that Mr. Bowman asked me to kidnap her two children. He wanted to use the kids as a leverage to make her come to him. I didn’t expect that the two kids were protected by the Moran family. I wasn’t able to catch any of them…”
Rutherford quickly told Maurice everything he knew about his mission. He would say anything and everything to save his life.
As Maurice listened to Rutherford’s explanations, he couldn’t help frowning. Everything Rutherford said gave him no answer. Instead, he was more confused now.
Something was off!
Jonathan’s attitude was unlike that of a father towards his children and their mother.
Unless…
A thought flashed through Maurice’s mind. He finally figured it out this time.
Unless Eliana lied to him. Aileen and Adrian were not Jonathan’s children at all.
At that time, he forced her to tell him the kids’ biological father. Coincidentally, Jonathan had met her overseas, so she lied, saying Jonathan was the father.
Maurice had no reason to not believe her. After all, everything made sense.
Now, the more Maurice thought about it, the angrier he became.
It turned out Eliana had been lying to him all the time.
For some reason, he was also a little happy.
He couldn’t help but beam, thinking that Aileen and Adrian weren’t Jonathan’s children after all.
With all these thoughts and emotions surging in his heart, Maurice’s expression changed from time to time.
Corbin didn’t know what to think as he looked at Maurice’s complicated expression.
He was worried that his boss might decide to punish his girlfriend’s best friend.
All of a sudden, Corbin’s phone vibrated.
He silently took two steps back and turned on his phone. He had just received an e-mail containing the twins’ test results.
His eyes widened when he saw the date of birth on the screen.
The time when Eliana became pregnant coincided with her one-night stand with Maurice.
