Chapter 723 Urgent Situation
"What's going on?" Cassius got up from the couch in an instant.
"What do you mean Cayden is missing? What happened?"
Cayden was everything to Cassius, so when he heard that his son was missing, he was terrified and his voice trembled.
"Wah wah wah! Cayden's homeroom teacher just called to tell me that they noticed Cayden missing from the classroom during the third period.
The homeroom teacher asked other students, and they all said that Cayden was taken away by a man in a suit," Shannon explained frantically as her face turned pale.
"Could it be the bodyguards from the Timothy Family who came to the store yesterday?"
Cassius was filled with rage as he pounded the wall repeatedly.
"It must be the Timothys! They kidnapped Cayden to force you to return home."
At this moment, Kingsley also looked grim.
He had just promised Shannon last night during dinner that he would protect and keep their family safe for the rest of their lives!
And today, he found himself in a predicament in which his words did not match his deeds.
Moreover, Cayden had fallen asleep in his arms the night before.
It was a warmth he had never felt before, being relied on by a child.
He couldn't imagine how devastated he would be if something happened to that adorable little boy.
Suddenly, Cassius' phone rang.
He answered the call and Horace's voice came through. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
"Cassius White, I'm assuming you've heard the news already, right? Do as I say if you don't want your son to die!"
"It's you! What have you done to my son?" Cassius yelled, his eyes bloodshot from rage.
"I won't let you get away with this if anything happens to my son!"
Shannon also pleaded in a hoarse voice, saying, "Mr. Stewart, please don't hurt my son. I beg you!"
Horace sneered and declared, "As long as you do as I say, I won't even touch his hair!"
At that moment, Cayden's voice came through the phone. "Mommy! Daddy! Uncle Nicholson! Save me!"
"Shut his mouth." Horace scolded, "Don't let him make any noise!"
Hearing their son's voice, Cassius and Shannon both cried out, "Don't hurt my son! We'll do whatever you say!"
"Hahaha! You should have done that sooner."
Horace sneered before announcing, "Now, I will give you two addresses. Nicholson needs to go to the first address. I'll give you the second address once he arrives at the specified location."
Upon hearing Horace's words, Kingsley and Cassius exchanged a glance.
They were both aware that Horace was wary of Kingsley's abilities, so he devised a plan to keep him occupied!
Kingsley sternly stated, "Sure, I'll go to the place you suggested, but you must record a video of Cayden right away and send it to us. How else can we tell if the child is safe?"
Cassius also shouted, "That's right! Hurry up and send us the video of Cayden!"
"Fine. Watch the video and then immediately do as I say," Horace said before hanging up the phone.
Soon after, Cassius received a video message on his phone.
In the video, Cayden was restrained to a chair while sobbing bitterly, and a cloth was placed over his mouth.
Seeing her son's condition, Shannon was about to pass out.
She had her hand on her chest as if her heart couldn't bear this kind of shock.
Cassius knew his wife had hereditary heart disease, so he quickly helped her sit on the couch and assured her, "Shann, don't worry. I promise I'll bring our son home safely."
Then, Horace sent another message.
"Now send Nicholson to Jade Hotel Room 6 right away. My men are keeping an eye on him. I'll give you further instructions once he's in the room."
