Chapter 54 Owed Another Favor
On the same day.
Jane and the first child were shopping in the mall.
After shopping, Jane suddenly wanted go to the toilet. She asked the child to wait at the door of the bathroom and wait for her to come out.
Not long after she entered, a man sneaked up to the child.
“Little boy, can I buy you some ice cream?” While the man was speaking, he held his back with his hand and looked at other customers vigilantly.
He instinctively resisted the man’s touch and wanted to avoid it, but he found that the hat was grabbed by the man.
He frowned and nodded at the man. “Okay, I’ll take you there. I want to eat the one inside.”
The man chuckled, “Okay, show me the way.”
So he took the man inside.
The man had been holding his hat, with the other hand on his chest, covering it with his coat. While walking, he checked the surrounding environment.
When Jane came out of the bathroom, she found that the child was missing. She shouted anxiously, “baby? baby!”
When Jane walked out, she found a man leading a boy inside. The boy was wearing the same clothes as the first child.
She immediately raised her voice and shouted, “baby! baby, is you?”
She followed him as she shouted.
The child heard the cry of Jane, but he didn’t turn around immediately. Instead, he didn’t stop until he arrived at the door of the ice cream shop. He pretended to be calm and ordered with the shop assistant, “sister, I want a chocolate ice cream.”
“Okay, please wait a moment. Sir, this way for bill.” The shop assistant pointed at the recipient to the man.
But the man was absent-minded. He looked around and then looked flustered.
“Sir? Sir?” The shop assistant called again.
“Baby, why don’t you answer me?” Jane came closely and asked
At this moment, the child suddenly pointed at the man’s back and shouted, “Police!”
Hearing this, the man instantly released him, turned around and took out the gun in his arms.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the child quickly went into the counter through the hole.
At the same time, Edward, who was hiding aside, immediately took action. He directly hit the man’s hand with a gun, and then rushed over and subdued him.
The rest of the men in plain clothes also revealed their identities. They handcuffed the man and took him out of the mall.
After putting away his gun, Edward thought of the smart boy just now. He turned around and walked to the ice cream shop. He said to the child and the shop assistant who were hugging each other, “it’s okay. He has been taken away. Come out.”
The shop assistant waited for a while to confirm their safety and then let go of the child.
Looking at the child’s face, Edward suddenly frowned. How could this child look so much like him when he was a child?
As soon as the child came out, she was hugged by Jane. “You scared me to death. Are you okay?”
“I’m fine,” the child said, “Grandma, when you were not here just now, the bad guy caught me. I didn’t answer you because I wanted to distract the bad guy. I am not a bad boy.”
“It’s good that you are fine.” Holding the child’s face in her hands, Jane was so scared that she still didn’t have the mood to blame him. She didn’t dare to leave the child alone in the future.
After comforting the child, Jane stood up and expressed her thanks to Edward, “Sir, thank you so much today.”
Edward came to his senses. He looked at the child absentmindedly and said, “nothing. It’s my duty. But this child is not afraid in danger. It’s good.”
“Is that so?” Hearing this, Jane was also a little happy. She touched the child’s head and said, “this child has been smart since childhood.”
“You are right.” Edward nodded and continued, “I’m free now. Let’s send you back. I don’t know if that guy has any accomplices. I’m afraid it’s not safe.”
“Thank you, sir.” Jane was afraid of being retaliated, so she didn’t refuse.
Twenty minutes later, the car stopped at the gate of the community.
As soon as they got out of the car, Andy’s taxi arrived and got out of it in a hurry.
“Mommy!” the child ran to her and hugged her as soon as he saw her.
“Baby? Are you waiting for me here?” She didn’t tell him when she would come back.
“Miss. Amy?” Edward recognized her.
“Who are you?” She had no impression of him.
“I’m Edward, Bob’s brother. Last time you had an accident with Bill, I took someone to look for him.” Edward said.
“Oh, I remember, Mr. Gu.” Andy smiled after she realized him. He was half a lifesaver, but she didn’t remember anything about him. How ungrateful she was.
“What happened?” Asked Jane.
“Nothing. I’ll explain it to you when I get back.” Andy changed the topic, “what are you doing here?”
“Oh, it was so dangerous just now. The child was caught by a man with a gun. Thanks to Mr. Gu, he could be safe!” As for Jane, she was still a little scared.
“Really?” Looking at the child then at Jacob, she said gratefully, “Mr. Gu, I owe you one more favor!”
“It’s just a piece of cake. Don’t take it to mind.” Edward was not a person who would ask for credit. He had been accustomed to saving people and did not ask for any return. But this time, he was a little regretful after saying that.NôvelDrama.Org © content.
The boy named the first child looked so much like him. He didn’t believe it was a coincidence. Maybe he could find out the truth by means of the help.
“Yes, yes. How about this? I’ll treat you to dinner tomorrow. What do you think?” Said Andy.
“Okay.” Edward pretended to nod reluctantly, but he was relieved in his heart.
Seeing that the two people were talking happily, Jane quickly interrupted, “it seems that it is not sincere to eat outside. Mr. Gu, I will cook myself tomorrow and cook a big meal for you at home. Would you like to come?”
“Jane, it’s not formal at home.” Andy knew the power of Gu family. Rich people didn’t like their simple food.
But Edward agreed without hesitation, “Okay, it’s settled.”
Now, it was hard for Andy to say anything, so she had to acquiesce. However, the child was happy and said, “Oh, fantastic. The police uncle is going to have dinner with me…”
Seeing this, Edward couldn’t help but put his hands on the top of the child’s fluffy head, and a very inappropriate gentle smile appeared on the tough man’s face.
Somehow, he felt that he was destined to have this child.

On the other side.
On the way back home, Helen lay on the sofa leisurely, took out her phone and was about to relax.
She accidentally clicked into WeChat.
It turned out that there were hundreds of messages in the company group.
Generally speaking, only the gossips would appear to this extent.
Was it because the news that she had just taught Andy a lesson was posted on the Internet?
Thinking that, Helen chuckled in her heart. Then she clicked in, only to see the photo of Andy getting in the car of Bill. She was so angry that she threw her phone away immediately.
But soon, she calmed down and saved all the speculations and photos about them.
Then she clicked on the dialog box of Sharon, selected all of them and pressed the send button.
