Chapter 850: Chapter 850
Emily Allen, standing nearby, was growing impatient. She glanced at Grace Thompson and took a step forward, trying to grab Grace’s hand.
Grace was startled, while Cyrus Thompson quickly stepped in front of her.
"What do you think you’re doing?" Cyrus’s voice was somewhat chilling.
Looking at Cyrus, who seemed to be a carbon copy of Justin Battleson, Emily involuntarily took a few steps back.
But Emily quickly realized that she had been scared by a child.
"I’m your aunt, of course I’m taking you home," Emily spoke.
"Yes, come home with Grandpa," Ethan Allen also nodded his head and reached out his hand toward Hank Thompson.
Cyrus’s brows furrowed as he stared intently at Ethan Allen and eventually said, "You’re not our grandpa, you’re a bad man."
Hank seemed to recall something as well, suddenly jumping up, "You’re the bad man who harassed Mommy in the coffee shop before!"
"Don’t talk nonsense, kids. How am I a bad man? I am your mother’s biological father," Ethan Allen retorted with displeasure.
"Just take the kids away," Ryan Richard said.
Ethan Allen had already entertained such thoughts; he did not want to waste more words on these children.
Cyrus stood in front of his younger siblings, then turned to the teacher beside him and said.
"Teacher, we don’t know these people; they’re bad people, please call the police."
"What are you talking about, kid?"
Upon hearing this, Ethan Allen immediately objected, "Regardless of whether you recognize me or not, we’re related by blood, I am your grandfather."
The teacher nearby, upon hearing this, quickly gestured for the children to go inside the kindergarten.
Seeing that he was about to take the children away, Ethan Allen wasn’t about to fail at this point; having even one child in his hands would be enough to threaten Charlotte Thompson. Official source is novel fire.net
Thinking this, he swiftly stepped forward and grabbed Olivia Thompson, who was closest to him.
Olivia couldn’t evade and was immediately frightened, tears welling up in her eyes on the spot.
Grace Thompson, who was about to run into the kindergarten, saw what was happening and immediately turned back.
"Annie! Bad man, let her go!"
The rest of the children also ran towards Ethan Allen, and seeing this, Ryan also tried to grab Hank Thompson.
"What are you doing!"
It was then that Charlotte Thompson’s voice came from behind; without hesitation, she threw her bag at Ryan Richard.
Ryan cried out in pain and released Hank’s hand.
The children turned and saw Charlotte Thompson, quickly starting to speak in distress.
Charlotte rushed over to see Ethan Allen still pulling on Olivia.
The little girl was terrified, her face covered in tears, as she reached her hand out towards Charlotte.
"Ethan Allen! What do you think you’re doing! Let go of my daughter!"
Charlotte had never expected Ethan Allen to find his way to the kindergarten.
"Charlotte, I’m these children’s grandfather, of course, I have a reason to see them," Ethan Allen said.
"Ethan Allen, I told you to let go!" Charlotte’s gaze was ice cold.
She regretted not having dealt with these people back at the office.
Ethan Allen was startled by Charlotte’s gaze and stepped back a few paces, and during this moment, Grace seized the opportunity to rush forward, trying to pull Ethan Allen’s arm to rescue Olivia.
Emily reacted and shoved Grace, causing her to fall backward with a tumble.
A hint of blood red flashed in Charlotte’s eyes as she stepped forward and slapped Emily across the face.
