My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna) novel Chapter 1698

"What's wrong? Did Irvin find your child?" Aaron asked.

I kept quiet. Before I could respond to him, I pressed the call button.

"Sorry, the number you have dialed cannot be reached. Please call again later."

I repeatedly called him several times, but the result was the same.

Throwing the phone aside, I sat down on the sofa dejectedly, looking up at the ceiling and sinking into deep thoughts.

Irvin had called at the right time. Perhaps it was only then that he had the chance to get access to a phone. However, he'd just said a few words, and suddenly he'd been cut off. Perhaps someone broke in and disconnected the phone.

However, there was no doubt that Irvin was still alive.

Although I still did not know their motive for bringing Irvin to Mesville, it was good that they didn't hurt him.

But why was Irvin so opposed to me going to Mesville?

As he told me the news about my child, yet at the same time, he tried his best to bear this responsibility alone. It seemed that he had divided himself into two personalities?

Until now, Irvin was the only person who knew the whereabouts of my child. But he'd still insisted on taking risks, even though he'd known that there were too many of them. What was he planning?

Perhaps there was something that made Irvin more worried than my missing child, which was why he had stopped me from going to Mesville.

I thought that maybe, I was coming close to the truth.

If I was correct, then the only reason Irvin forbade me to head to Mesville was that those people were after me.

Maybe that bodyguard would know something.

As expected, even after being stabbed by a knife and tormented for such a long time, his weakened form just now was just an act.

"We can make a deal," I said calmly. "But I have a condition. Tell me, how is my child?"

"Miss Reid, although we are willing to die for anything, we won't mistreat a newborn that's barely a month old." The bodyguard smiled, making his whole face look a little menacing.

I couldn't believe his words completely, since he was such a cruel and merciless person. However, with Irvin's witness, I was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.

I believed in this guy. I believe that they wouldn't hurt my son.

Even so, my baby was still too young. How could it be good to wander around with a group of strangers?

At the thought of this, my heart ached, as if an invisible hand were squeezing it.
