Chapter 1174: Chapter 1174: Searching Ah_1

But searching for her now was like looking for a needle in a haystack!

In the hospital, with a hostage situation and an explosion, the police were blocking the passages upstairs while patients and their relatives were running around in panic downstairs!

Where could Purple Summers be?

Maybe in the chaos she had gone to the wrong floor, or maybe she had been taken away for emergency treatment because she was unwell, or maybe... maybe she had already been abducted!

No one expected Purple Summers to become a target.

Alexander Summers didn’t expect it, nor did Purple Summers.

Last time, with the Black Rose serial murder case spinning around, the killer had gone straight for Alexander Summers in the end. And now, just after Purple Summers had given birth, there were no easier targets than those two newborn infants.

All it would take was to get those babies in his hands, and he could blackmail not only Purple Summers but also Alexander Summers!

But the children were fine.

The children were sleeping safely in their incubators, while Purple Summers was nowhere to be found.

...

When Purple Summers’s consciousness slightly cleared, she realized her surroundings were constantly shaking.

She was in a vehicle.

She vaguely heard talking by her ear—it was that nurse, chuckling crisply with a soft, tender warmth, "Such a long convoy, is the president coming by? What a coincidence."

The man driving in front calmly said, "He must have heard news of her giving birth and thus came to see her."

"Ha... Well, won’t he get a fright when he arrives at the hospital? With so many people, it’s quite lively," the nurse said with schadenfreude before asking, "Are we going out of the city now?"

"The exits to leave Beijing are probably on lockdown now, no rush. We’ll change cars at the next junction and lay low for a while," the man’s voice remained cold and calm.

Purple Summers recognized this as Nathaniel Summers’s voice.

She thought, was Nathaniel still not willing to let her go... Last time, he tried to drown her in the bathtub, what was he planning to do this time?

She worked hard to think, to stay awake, but her consciousness was like mud, heavy and painful.

And she thought of how it had been less than eight hours since she had given birth to her children, and she hadn’t even had a good look at them...

The car stopped. She did not know where they had driven to, but it felt unusually quiet around.

Then the car door opened, and someone picked her up and placed her into another vehicle.

It was an SUV, with a spacious back seat. The seat had been laid flat, and she lay atop it completely. With a slight move, she brushed against a soft body.

Purple Summers strained to open her eyes, and within reach, she saw a young and familiar face.

—It was the little girl who had jumped out of her car last time.

The little girl’s eyes were tightly shut, seemingly unconscious.

The nurse got into the car and, seeing Purple Summers open her eyes, laughed lightly, "Awake already? Don’t be scared, we’ll be home soon."

With that, she gently touched Purple Summers’s forehead.

Purple Summers wanted to turn her head away, but the effects of the sedation hadn’t worn off yet. She had no strength in her body, not even enough to speak. Her stomach roiled, making her want to vomit.

She still couldn’t understand how Nathaniel, as a fugitive, managed to bribe a nurse in the hospital—moreover, a nurse who just happened to be on duty that day.

The vehicle started moving again. Nathaniel, sitting in the front, kept driving without saying a word to Purple Summers. The nurse, however, couldn’t stop talking, evidently very excited.

"I’m pretty smart, aren’t I? Even with all those police and bodyguards outside, I still caught you! I just said, ’Ladies first,’ and the bodyguard actually didn’t enter the elevator, ha ha so funny..."

"Checking the surveillance won’t help either. This city is full of blind spots, just change the car and they’ll lose their target, so stupid!"

She grew more smug as she continued, "I, all by myself, caught the president’s daughter. I’m so clever!"

Perhaps annoyed by her chatter, Nathaniel called from the front, "Cherry."

The nurse shut up, smiled sweetly, and leaned close to Purple Summers’ ear, whispering softly, "I was right last time, wasn’t I? The one in your belly, it’s a boy."

Purple Summers’s heart lurched as she finally understood...
