Reborn Heiress: Taking Back What Is Rightfully Hers!
Chapter 514: Don’t Hurt Her!

Chapter 514: Don’t Hurt Her!

To leave this place, it would be best to take down Mason and his people—except for the pilot.

But... did she have the ability to do that?

Ella bit her lip, suddenly having an idea. Her gaze shifted toward the elderly man strolling toward her.

This must be Mason’s uncle, Isaac. He looked to be in his fifties or sixties, with a full head of white hair, yet his energy was remarkably vibrant.

He was slightly shorter, his eyes carrying a hint of cold amusement. "A little girl like you... you’ve got some nerve, kidnapping my nephew."

Ella sneered. "I’m only following your example!"

In that moment, Ella was nervous. She didn’t know whether she should surrender and then look for a chance to take these people down later.

Isaac smiled gently. "Only someone like you could give birth to such a wonderful child as Elias. Put down the gun, and we’ll treat you well."

"Mommy!" Elias, who didn’t understand what was happening, was tightly held by the bodyguards. He struggled a bit, but it was impossible for him to break free.

Ella studied her son carefully. Seeing that he wasn’t hurt, she slowly reached out, pulling her hand away from the gun.

Isaac, thinking Ella was the timid type, couldn’t help but sneer, but his voice remained gentle.

"Very good. Such obedience... I won’t make things difficult for you."

Mason smiled in approval as well. Ella quickly strode toward Elias, stepping in front of him and tightly pulling her son into her arms.

The cold wind howled.

Elias wrapped his arms around Ella, happy and excited. "Mommy, you finally came to get me! I’m so happy... It won’t be long before we can see Daddy and the others!"

Tears streamed down Ella’s face. She had been gambling—betting on Mason’s humanity, wondering if it had completely disappeared.

If it had, he could have easily refused her request and subdued her.

But she won. She was finally with her son.

She held Elias, crying and laughing, both sad and overjoyed. She was sad because she didn’t have the power to take him away right then, to protect him properly.

She was happy because, after everything, she had finally seen Elias. It wasn’t in vain that she left Country S and came here.

When Carly ran over, she happened to see Ella holding Elias and crying. She stopped, unwilling to step forward, afraid of ruining such a beautiful moment.

Reunion—something Carly had longed for—was an encounter she had been waiting for a long time.

But that encounter had never come for her.

Her elderly parents, no doubt, would be heartbroken. If only she could leave this place and return to her parents’ side. What a wonderful thing that would be!

"Uncle, I’m here!" Mason’s strength slowly returned, and he placed the gun from his pocket onto his waist.

Isaac’s face darkened. "Why did you bring this woman here? What if Eric finds out?"

"Don’t worry. She doesn’t have a tracker on her. No matter how powerful Eric is, he won’t be able to trace her here!" Mason grinned, watching the mother and son embrace.

Isaac was displeased. "No matter what, you can’t interfere with my plans."

"Don’t worry. I’ll stop her," Mason said, smiling with confidence, his eyes gleaming with certainty.

Ella’s tears fell incessantly, dripping onto Elias’ coat. She was afraid it would soak through, so she lifted her head and wiped her face.

Elias beamed, kissing Ella’s cheek. "Mommy, are you crying because you’re happy? Mommy, why isn’t Daddy here to see me?"

"You’re daddy is too busy, so Mommy came to get you by herself. Let’s stay here for a few more days, and we’ll have some fun, okay?" Ella smiled as she spoke, though the smile was forced, Elias couldn’t detect any flaws.

Elias nodded obediently, holding Ella’s hand and eagerly showing her the sights around the island.

Mason was feeling incredibly frustrated, watching the pair of mother and son walking freely. Why did Ella seem like she was on vacation instead of coming to rescue her son?

"This woman is very smart. She forced you to bring her here," Dr. Scott commented softly, watching Ella’s retreating figure.

"Uncle, she’s just an ordinary woman. Please don’t hurt her!" Mason quickly whispered in response.

Isaac chuckled lightly. "Since you’ve asked, I’ll show you some respect. But she can’t interfere with Elias’s training."

Mason nodded, knowing his uncle well enough to understand that Isaac’s obsessive nature wouldn’t allow anyone to stop his plans.

Meanwhile, back in Country S.

The Nelson family.

It was late at night, and Eric was still wide awake. Mira and the others wouldn’t be able to get any satellite surveillance information in such a short time, so he had no choice but to wait.

Earlier in the afternoon, he had received an email from Ella, containing the password to her inbox.

However, when the technicians logged into her email, they traced the mysterious IP address to within Country S. Someone was dispatched to the location, but it turned out to be an abandoned house.

The person wouldn’t have sent a message to Ella from the place where Elias was being held, so Eric lost the lead once again.

Eric was becoming increasingly agitated, pacing back and forth in the hall. Little Dorian sat listlessly on the side, asking Lucas over and over, "Grandpa, why haven’t Mommy and Brother come back yet? They’ve been gone for so long."

"Don’t worry, they’ll be back in a few days," Lucas gently reassured him, patting Dorian’s head.

Dorian pouted, clearly upset.

Luke continued to smoke, but when he saw Dorian’s unhappy face, he went outside to smoke, not wanting to add to the child’s frustration.

Just then, Eric’s phone rang.

He glanced at the screen and saw that it was a call from James.

Without hesitation, he answered the call. James was in Country W now; perhaps he had some information?

"Eric, I... I had someone steal a map from Mason’s house. The servant mentioned that Mason had kept it carefully in a drawer, but when he left, he might have been in a hurry, and it fell onto the front yard. She just happened to pick it up!" James’s voice was faint, but Eric’s heart skipped a beat.

"I’ve had my assistant scan it and send it over to you. You... you might want to take a look when you have time."

"Okay, I will."

Eric’s voice was calm, though he couldn’t help but notice James’s weak tone. Was he injured?

But there wasn’t time to ask further, as James quickly hung up.

Eric hadn’t expected James to stumble upon such a valuable find. Lucas had sent many people to Scott’s estate, so why hadn’t they discovered the map?

Lucas quickly walked over. "Was that your father calling? Did he find something?"

"Yes, he sent me a map! I’m going to check it now!" Eric didn’t finish his sentence, immediately rushing upstairs.

Lucas’s eyes flickered. He had also sent people to assist James, but while James had obtained the map, he was now in the hospital. During the trade with the servant, Mason’s men had discovered him.

James had been shot three times in the thigh, and he had called ahead to warn Lucas not to reveal that he had been injured.

Eric hurried upstairs, opened his laptop, and sure enough, found a new email in his inbox.

Opening it, there was indeed a map. It showed an island, and someone had circled it with a pen.
