Indeed, Kim kidnapped Simon, but he wasn't strict with the little boy. There were hardly any restrictions
except for the fact that Simon was not allowed to go out.
At this moment, Simon went to Kim's study room.
A loving smile appeared on Kim's lips as he looked at Simon who just entered the room. It looked like a
smile of a father. In return, Simon tenderly and cutely smiled at him too. “Dad…”
When Kim heard the title, his smile widened, and he reached out a hand to the little boy.
Immediately, Simon stepped forward. He was an obedient child, so he held Kim's outstretched hand.
Kim then held him in his arms and asked softly, “Are you happy to see your mother today?”
It seemed that Kim still thought of Rose as Anne.
He couldn't help it. Simon rolled his big eyes but stopped himself from saying anything. Until now, Kim
wasn't aware that he was referring to Rose, Simon's aunt, and not his mother, Anne.
If he really did have an aunt though, why didn't Anne mention her before? Or was Rose just lying to him
about that fact? Maybe she wasn't really his aunt?
At this point in time, Simon didn’t know what to believe. Cautiously, he looked up at Kim and asked,
“Dad, who is Rose?”
Raised eyebrows were Kim’s first response to what he heard. He didn't even try to hide that he was
confused by the question. “Rose is your mother's sister, but she is very bad to your mother. Your
mother suffered a lot because of her. They are family, related by blood, but your mother hated her very
much.”
Simon nodded and sighed. No wonder his mother never mentioned his aunt before. As it turned out,
this aunt was a very bad person.
However, the bad woman had instructed him to do something. She asked him to tell Kim that she was
Rose. Should he follow her?
Back then, his mother had always wanted to leave when they were both trapped here. Kim just didn't
allow her to do so. Wasn't it a good thing that it was not his mother that had been brought here?
Still enveloped in Kim's arms, Simon kept on thinking whether he should tell the truth to Kim or not.
“Well, I'm done with my work. Let's go see your mom.” Kim tightly held Simon in his arms.
The child nodded and the two went downstairs together. Rose, who was sitting on the sofa, looked
anxious with a deep frown on her face.
There were many people in black clothes standing around. Her phone had been taken away, so she
wasn't able to contact anyone outside at all!
If this were to be her situation all the time, how long would she be trapped here?
Plagued with worrisome thoughts, she decided to lift her head just in time to see Kim and Simon who
were going down the stairs. Her eyes lit up and she ran to them immediately.
The sudden rush made Kim frown. He thought Rose was worried about the child, so he put Simon
down on the ground.
For a moment, Rose caught Kim's smiling eyes and her body stiffened. Instantly, she squatted down to
look at Simon instead. Softly but expectantly, she said, “Simon, do you have something to tell your
dad? Do it now.”
Intrigued, Kim raised his eyebrows and looked at Simon. The child's big eyes were wandering and
sizing up Rose.
A few minutes ago, he learned that Rose was a bad aunt who made his mother miserable. Now that
the bad aunt was here with them and not with his mother, he figured that his mother must be in a better
mood.
If that was the case, he would do everything he could to punish this bad aunt.
In a confused tone, Simon asked, “Mom, what are you talking about? I don’t have anything to say.”
The sudden turn of events greatly shocked Rose. Her eyes widened and she looked at Simon in
disbelief. This little boy clearly knew she wasn't his mother, but why did he call her that? What did he
want to do?
Mildly surprised, Kim raised his eyebrows at Rose. He couldn’t help but laugh at what happened. “If
you have something to say, just say it yourself. Why do you need Simon to say it for you?”
Rose clenched her teeth. She averted her gaze and weakly pulled at her clothes. Helplessly, she said,
“Kim, I’m really not Anne. I’m Rose. Please let me go!
I promise to never tell anyone where you live. We can just pretend that I’ve never been here or seen
Simon. What do you think?”
In a split second, Kim's smile turned into a frown. He immediately became cold with a lethal aura
emanating from his whole body.
This woman in front of her had the guts to repeat that she was Rose and not Anne!
That boldness made Kim sneer. He crossed his hands over his chest and his aura became even colder.
The effect was palpable. Simon shrank back with fear in his heart. Still, he gritted his teeth and held
Rose's thigh. "Mom, don't leave me. Don't leave me. Dad is very good to us. Please stay here!"
I know you want to mislead Dad and pretend you're my aunt, but you are not! You are my mother! I'm
sure of it! Wouldn't I know my own mother?”
With eyes wide open, Rose looked at Simon in disbelief. 'What the hell is this little boy talking about?'
Defensively, she pushed Simon hard and his little body harshly hit the ground. He couldn't help but cry
due to the pain of the impact. He looked at Rose with red eyes and bit his lips in grievance. He didn't
say anything, but his expression was enough to sting her.
Kim looked at her in surprise. He knew how much Anne loved Simon. But this woman in front of him...
“Mom, you can't treat me like this. Sally and Eddy are your children, but so am I. You can't abandon me
for them and Dad!” Simon let out a loud cry. His little hands were constantly wiping the tears falling
down his face. His whole body convulsed with tears as if his heart would break any time soon.
Greatly shocked by the turn of events again, Rose shook her head and anxiously explained, “Kim, I
really don’t have any idea what this child is talking about. I’m really Rose!”
However, Simon's words felt like thorns stabbing directly into Kim’s heart.
For the past two years, Kim was aware how much Anne loved Kevin. Simon was right. Anne couldn't
bear to live without Kevin and her other two children. Did that mean that Anne decided to give up
Simon?
A month ago, Anne and Kevin found Kim. Kim asked Anne to go with him back then so she could see
Simon. Clearly, Anne's final choice disappointed him.
And now she was pretending that she was Rose so that she could escape. She had really gone too far!
“You have to believe me Kim. I'm really Rose. I'm not Anne. If you don't believe me, come back to A
City with me. I'll call Anne so you could see with your own eyes that I'm really not her!” The unrelenting
cold eyes of Kim led Rose to immediately explain. She was gravely scared of him.
But it didn't work. Kim was suspicious of her anxious face.
“Anne, it has only been a month since we last saw each other. You seem to be really good at acting.
Are you going to be an actress?
What does Rose look like? Do you think I don't know? I told you already, you can't fool me just because
you've changed your fashion style, and now you're just playing dumb! Do you think I will believe you?
Last time, I imprisoned you for two years. This time, I could imprison you for a lifetime. No matter what
you say or do, you have no chance of leaving here!
Remember, as much as Eddy and Sally are your children, Simon is too. If you dare to do anything bad
to Simon, I won’t let you go unscathed.” He stepped forward and grabbed her hand. Then, he
mercilessly threw Rose on the sofa.
Rose was full of fear. Her body trembled on the sofa. Kim had turned his back and was already picking
up Simon who was on the ground. He then proceeded to walk upstairs.
What Kim hated the most in his life was a mother abandoning her child!
In the past two years, Anne had always taken good care of Simon and Sally regardless of how difficult
it was. No matter what, Kim never thought that Anne would be capable of being like this one day!
This kind of behavior crossed Kim's line.
Despite being dismissed, Rose wanted to continue her plead. She clenched her teeth and prepared to
talk but she sensed the men in black with hostile eyes all around her. She couldn't help but lower her
head in defeat.
‘What the hell is going on? I am not Anne. Why should I bear this mistreatment for that bitch?’
Upstairs, Kim looked at Simon with concern. Softly, he asked, “Simon, how do you feel? Does it hurt?”
Eyes red from crying hard, Simon gently bit his lips and shook his head.
Kim sighed and caressed Simon's face. After Anne left, no one cared for this child except for him.
That was why he loved Simon even more.
“Dad, does mom really not want me anymore? Am I irrelevant in this world?” Initially, Simon knew that
Kim loved him very much, and what he did to Rose just now proved that Kim really deeply cared about
him.
Because of that, Simon had to say these heartbreaking words.
Without a second thought, Kim shook his head firmly. He didn't expect the child to think of this.
“Simon, your mother has been away for more than a month. Many things happened that has affected
her mood. But I assure you that I will keep her by your side until she loves you again.” His words
sounded like an unbreakable promise.
This cheered up Simon. He smiled and continuously nodded at Kim. “Then let's make a deal that we
won't let mom leave no matter what.”
Kim nodded with a smile and held the little boy in his arms again. But if one were to look closely, they
would see that his eyes got colder and colder. ‘Anne, you are going too far!’
Time went by. Rose looked at the darkening night sky outside and gradually fell into silence.
Back then, Kim had imprisoned Anne for two years while Kevin looked for her.
Now, Kim caught her and truly believed that she was Anne. How long then would she have to be
imprisoned?
To make things worse, no one was looking for her!
Rose put her hand on her forehead in distress and swore at Anne in her heart, 'Damn Anne, you got
me into this much trouble!'
At that same moment, Anne was lying on her bed. She was constantly tossing and turning because she
wasn't able to fall asleep.
A figure behind her pulled her into his arms. Anne felt warm from the embrace.
“What's wrong? What happened?” Kevin, who just woke up, said in a lazy and husky voice.
Unfortunately, Anne was not in the mood to appreciate that kind of voice. She moved Kevin's hand
away from her and sat on the bed. She sighed heavily before turning around to speak to her husband,
“Kevin, I’m worried about Simon.”
Hearing the child's name completely awakened Kevin and prompted him to sit up like Anne.
He knew that Kim was in H City right now, but he didn't know where exactly. He didn't have any clue.
After all, H City was not A City. Kevin didn't have the power to control everything in H City.
It was even more complicated because Kim had Simon in his possession. Even if they had any clues
about Kim's whereabouts, they couldn't act rashly. Simon was too young and fragile for a chaotic
encounter.
“Don't worry Anne. I'll try my best to get Simon back as soon as possible. I will reunite our family.” He
reached out and hugged her tightly.
Anne nodded in response and told Kevin what Ryan had said to her. The story made Kevin raise his
eyebrows slightly.
He hadn't seen Rose for a long time. He was surprised to know that she had changed her face to look
exactly like Anne. It was a bad move that led her to be taken away by Kim!
A faint smile appeared on Kevin’s face. It wasn't good but he had to admit that Rose's entanglement in
their affairs was really timely. Otherwise, wouldn't Anne be in danger again because of Kim’s
persistence?
This way, Rose had fallen into the clutches of a tiger on behalf of Anne!
