Chapter 885 - Vega & Summer (1/2)
Nicolae still could not understand who exactly Summer and her parents were. Why did anyone they knew want to kidnap her? What was the person's motive? Could it be that the person who ordered the kidnapping hacked all the CCTVs around the location of the boat too?
Nicolae had thought the perpetrator who hacked those cameras was Summer's mother, but now he began to feel doubtful. What if the culprit was the mastermind behind the kidnapping? And actually, the mastermind sent four of his men to take Summer from the two criminals. However, because Summer was gone, he had them kill the kidnappers ...
As Marion said earlier, the culprit was not a woman. Summer's mother couldn't possibly be involved. If she was indeed the one who hacked the CCTV camera, Nicolae was planning to look for her in Darknet. However, now he changed his mind.
He might invite the attention of the bad people who actually planned this abduction if he came to announce to public that he found a child with characteristics like Summer.
Hmm ... maybe it's better if he searched for clues to Bercy Park as he told Mischa.
Hopefully, Summer could still remember the way back from the park to her home.
Nicolae didn't know when he started becoming so worried about Summer. His head and c.h.e.s.t were filled with thoughts about Summer and how to get the little girl back to her mother. For some reason, it felt like the child's well-being was his number one priority.
His feelings had been stirred all day. Once he knew Summer's full name, his c.h.e.s.t felt heavy. Why could his name and Summer be so similar? This was a coincidence that made him immediately think of Marie and his unborn child.
Why was the universe so cruel to him and always reminded him of them? It felt like his wounds were cut open again just when he was about to recover after struggling to let them go for years ...
He did not want to be too close to Summer because he was afraid his heart be deeply hurt when he had to give the child back to her parents. He remembered years ago when he found out that Altair and Vega still had their biological father, and it was actually his own brother.
Alaric and Aleksis are indeed very understanding in that crazy situation and until now they did not try to separate him from his two children. Now the twins were now in their teens. However, Nicolae was unable to go through such experiences again. In his heart, he tried hard to keep his distance and not too fond of Summer.
He must try to find Summer's mother as soon as possible, return the cute child to her, and then take his leave. He must do it before his feelings for the little girl became deep.
However, as always, you don't always get what you want.
Now Nicolae found himself sitting on the sofa beside Summer's bed and staring at the girl's sleeping face with tightness in his c.h.e.s.t. What a lovely and adorable child.
What was her mother like?
He saw Summer moving restlessly in her sleep and dropping her blanket to the floor. Nicolae fixed Summer's blanket lovingly and stroked her hair, then stared at the child for a long time.
***
The next day Nicolae contacted the police to find out if there was any progress on their side. He had to swallow his disappointment because the five people who contacted the police and claimed to have lost a child, none could mention Summer's full name as he had requested and provide proof that they were indeed her family.
”I have to be patient. It's only been two days,” Nicolae thought. He took Summer to Bercy Park to make her recognize the environment around her home. Unfortunately, the child could not remember anything.
He then carried the little girl and returned to the penthouse. Tomorrow they would try again. In the evening, Altair and Vega, who managed to get permission from Mr. Rhieu to leave their group at the hotel, came to visit Nicolae.
