She Made a Comeback as a Renowned Doctor-Chapter 119 - Luke and Willow Get Kidnapped
Chapter 119: Chapter 119 Luke and Willow Get Kidnapped
The banquet was drawing to a close.
Miss Williams was the main attraction today, and naturally, there were many who toasted to her. Although Waylon Lewis was by her side, and they dared not behave improperly, some things were unavoidable. At this moment, feeling a bit dizzy, she stumbled a few steps, but thankfully, Waylon Lewis was there to support her.
“I’ll take you home.”
Miss Williams shook her hand, “The guests haven’t left yet, it wouldn’t be good for me to leave first.”
Upon hearing this, everyone nearby felt a tightness in their chests, followed by an unemotional glance that scanned over them.
Cough…

That look clearly meant, “If you’re not leaving, shall I invite you to stay the night?”
Someone immediately reacted cleverly, setting down their glass and standing up, “President Lewis, Miss Williams, I have matters at home and must leave.”
“Right, we have things to do too, my wife is waiting for me at home.”
The ones who could speak directly to Waylon Lewis were undoubtedly influential figures from powerful families. Seeing them quickly bowing and making a quick exit, the rest dared not linger any longer.
Thus, a group of guests stood up in unison and took their leave.
Miss Williams blinked at this scene and turned to look at Waylon Lewis.
Waylon Lewis seemed to feel her gaze and looked back at her with lowered eyes.
“We can go?”
“…”
“Luke and Willow are still playing hide-and-seek with Wyatt Lewis,” said Miss Williams with a hint of helplessness, meaning she had to find Luke and Willow.
Waylon Lewis hooked his arm around Miss Williams’s shoulder, leading her forward, “No rush, I’ll send someone to find them. They’ll bring the two little ones to you later.”
Miss Williams felt that wouldn’t do. Today, for some reason, she was feeling exceedingly anxious. She wouldn’t be at ease until she had brought the two children home herself.
Miss Williams adjusted her dress and stubbornly started walking out, “I’ll go find them.”
Waylon Lewis, who always had difficulty with stubborn women, immediately dialed Wyatt’s phone.
Seconds later, Wyatt answered. Before Waylon Lewis could speak, Wyatt exclaimed, “Bro! Luke and Willow… they’re missing!”
Waylon Lewis’s grip on the phone tightened suddenly.
Waylon was close enough to Miss Williams that the chilly night wind carried Wyatt’s voice clearly to her ears.
Miss Williams was struck dumb as if by a bolt from the blue, and it took her several seconds to recover. She quickly snatched Waylon Lewis’s phone, anxiously asking, “What did you say?”
“Panting as he ran and searched, Wyatt’s voice was filled with haste, “Sister-in-law, I was just with the two little ones in the hallway, then I turned around and they were gone. But don’t panic, I’ve already sent people out to look for them, they couldn’t have gone far…”
Miss Williams could almost hear her heart pounding violently.
The incident was so sudden and her unease grew stronger. She immediately tried to call Luke and Willow’s communication watches.
Switched off!
Switched off!
Miss Williams had never felt such intense anxiety before. She picked up her skirts and ran out.
Luke and Willow, her whole world!
After running a few steps, her high heels proved to be extremely troublesome. Miss Williams’s heel caught on her dress and she stumbled uncontrollably.
Waylon Lewis frowned deeply, taking three steps forward to steady Miss Williams, “Calm down. I’ve ordered a lockdown of the entire Emperor Perry. No one can get out. I’ll help you look.”
Miss Williams clenched her teeth, “To the surveillance room.”
Emperor Perry was too vast, with hundreds of private rooms. Searching through them was like looking for a needle in a haystack. Miss Williams desperately tried to regulate her breathing and force herself to calm down.
The two of them hurried to the surveillance room, where Wyatt was already waiting, “Brother, sister-in-law.”
Wyatt was deeply bowed his head.
“Found anything?”
“Yes.” Wyatt immediately replayed the surveillance video he had pulled up for the two of them.
I could clearly see Luke and Willow being carried away by two men in black as the crowd was moving out.
The men in black deliberately avoided the surveillance cameras, wearing baseball caps, so not a single clear shot of their faces was captured; it was evident they had premeditated the abduction of Luke and Willow.
Hope Williams clenched her hands that were hanging by her sides.
Waylon Lewis’s eyes were filled with icy coldness, “Search, deploy more people to search, even if we have to turn Emperor Perry upside down, bring Luke and Willow back to me.”
Wyatt Lewis abandoned his usual frivolous demeanor, his eyes now brimming with severe coldness, “I’ll go right now.”
Daring to kidnap the Lewis Family’s children, these two must be tired of living.
Waylon Lewis continued to make calls.
“Boss?”
“Mobilize everyone and block every exit of Emperor Perry, conduct a carpet search on every floor, don’t miss any corner. Tonight, without my order, anyone who sets foot outside of Emperor Perry is opposing the Lewis Family.”
“Yes, Boss.”
At the front door of Emperor Perry.
Thomas Hughes, leading a team of fully armed troops, had already sealed off every entrance to Emperor Perry.
All the lights of Emperor Perry were blazing, with more than a dozen helicopters hovering overhead, brightening the entire area around Emperor Perry as if it were broad daylight.
Thus, all the staff were on high alert; tonight, all guests, no matter how prestigious their status may be, were stopped in their tracks, because the Lewis Family had just made their point: stepping out of Emperor Perry meant opposing the Lewis Family.
And to oppose the Lewis Family, there was only one outcome—death!
No one dared to defy the order and stayed put obediently.
Even filled with questions, they only dared to whisper amongst themselves, as no one dared to question the members of the fully armed Black Guard Corps nearby.
For Waylon Lewis to mobilize such force, something major must have happened.
Everyone was anxious tonight.
At this moment on the fifth floor, two men in black were carrying two children who had been drugged into unconsciousness, evading the search with their exceptional counter-surveillance skills.
They moved rapidly through the corridors, sabotaging the surveillance cameras and quietly slipping into a private room without a trace.
“God damn it, kidnapping two kids for five million, I knew it wouldn’t be so easy. What the hell is this woman up to? Whose brats are these? Are they trying to get us killed?”
Scarface threw Luke and Willow onto the sofa next to him.
The other man peered out of the window to check the situation outside and reassured him.
“Brother, you have to take risks for wealth. Nothing can bring us down. After this job, we can go home to our wives and children.”
Scarface, in a fit of rage, pointed outside, “You take a look for yourself, we’ve got money we can’t even live to spend.”
Right now, every inch of the exterior, not to mention the interior, of the building was brightly illuminated by the helicopter lights; they didn’t even have a chance to scale the walls and escape.
Scarface swallowed and lit a cigarette before making a call, “Are you trying to get me killed?”
“Come to the top floor, I ensure your safe departure.”
The person on the phone promised.
“Are you sure we can leave safely?”
“I’m in Emperor Perry right now, too. We’re two peas in a pod; saving you is saving myself.”
The person on the other end added, Scarface’s murderous eyes squinted with a hint of trust, “Got it.”
Joy Ward hung up the phone with sincere fear and trepidation, pulled out the SIM card, snapped it in half, and flushed it down the toilet.
Kaeli Thompson stood at the bathroom door keeping watch; Joy Ward came out of the bathroom in a hurry, grabbed Kaeli Thompson’s hand tightly, and already resumed a calm state.
“Did you take care of everything?” Kaeli Thompson, facing the patrolling Black Guard Corps, was visibly shaking.
Joy Ward held Kaeli Thompson’s hand tightly, “Mom, I’ve taken care of everything, don’t worry. Just do as I say, and I’ll soon win back the opportunity to return to the Lewis Family.”
As long as Hope Williams was dead or the children were dead, she would be the last one standing.
