Chapter 711

Buzz!

Alden‘s phone vibrated.

The group turned to him in unison.

He cast a glance at the caller before he pursed his lips and said, “It‘s K.”

Adina breathed a sigh of relief. It appeared that K was fine. “Pick up the call and ask him about the
current situation,” she said plainly. The moment Alden answered the call, he heard the icy cold voice of
a man from the other end of the phone. “K is in my hands now. If you want to save him, come and see
me.”

Right after the man spoke, he hung up.

The living room fell extremely quiet.

After some time, Alden said, “Mommy, I have to go there by myself.”

Adina pursed her lips.

K had been caught. If she allowed Alden to go and save him, Alden would be in danger.

Adina stood up and said, “I‘ll go. I have a way to save Karl.”

“Mommy, Terry and I are friends. I‘ve deceived him once by having K meet him on my behalf. I‘ll be
deceiving him for the second time if I let you go on my behalf,” Alden said solemnly. “Your relationship
with your family will sour if you deceive them thrice, more so if you do the same to an online friend.”



Adina fell silent.She had to admit that Alden was right.

If she had not insisted on having Karl make that trip on Alden‘s behalf, Alden would have made the
deal with

Terry.

But if she were given a second chance, she would still make the same decision.

Something had happened to Duke. She could not afford to put her children in danger.

“Mommy, trust me. I‘m confident that I can make Terry let Karl go. I‘m also confident that I‘ll come back
safe and sound.” Alden stared at Adina resolutely. “Stay at home and wait for my return. Don‘t worry.”

Adina‘s lips parted. She did not know how to reply to him. If she insisted on going with him, something
bad might happen once again… After all, she had met Terry more than once.

If she showed up as Alden‘s mother, Terry would suspect Alden of having an ulterior motive no matter
what he did.

“Mommy, I’ll go with Alden,” said George, who had been quiet the entire time. “Even though I haven‘t
known Terry for a long time, we can get along. With me around, you don‘t have to worry so much about
us…”

Adina was speechless.

In fact, she felt even more worried…

Her two four–year–old children were going to meet the man whom the media reporters around the
world saw as a demon…



“Addy, it‘s the only way,” Flint said. “It‘s safer for the two of them to go alone than for you to accompany
them.”

Adina let out another sigh. “The two of you have to be careful. You have to take care of each other.
Leave that place as soon as you save Karl. I‘ll figure out another way to look for your daddy.”

Due to Adina‘s concerns, Flint assigned two bodyguards to escort the two children to Hestia Border.

It was the children‘s first time leaving the house since they arrived about three or four days ago.

The road was crowded with vehicles and passersby . No one could tell that it was actually the
birthplace of evil.

Two guards stopped their car at the entry point.

The two bodyguards then escorted Alden and George to the military zone‘s central area, and they were
stopped at the entrance again.

Alden spoke fluent English. “I‘m Sir Daugherty. He‘s Hal the milk lover. Tell Terry that we‘re here.”

The guards exchanged glances before one of them quickly went in to report to Terry.

It did not take long for the guard to run back out. “The boss is having a meeting. Wait for him in the
living room.”

Alden nodded and walked in with George. Meanwhile, their bodyguards were stopped outside.

The two children walked into the living hall inside the mansion expressionlessly and calmly.

Isabelle was sitting on the couch while peeling grapes. She was putting one of the grapes into her
mouth when she noticed two children walking in through her peripheral vision.



She was stunned.The two children looked a lot like Terry…
