Prosperous Marriage: Married to My Brother-in-law-Chapter 699 Adele’s Reaction (1)_1

Years ago, Benjamin Robinson had known the truth about Adele Horne's situation. Now, it seemed that man had come looking for them. So, these matters were the Horne Family's internal affairs. There was no need for him to get involved, unless his friend asked him again to arrest someone. But it looked like his friend wouldn't ask him to arrest Noah Reyes anymore.

Benjamin Robinson was the first to leave with the police officers. A number of patrol cars quickly departed, sirens blaring.

Hansen Ruiz was still there. In fact, they were all at fault for what had transpired today. They shouldn't have deluded themselves into preventing Noah Reyes from meeting his son, Jimmy Horne, even if their intentions were for the good of Adele and Billy.

"Uncle, goodbye."

Jimmy Horne said farewell to Noah Reyes.

"Jimmy," Noah Reyes took a few steps forward, wanting to get closer, but Glades Horne issued a low warning, "If you take one more step, you'll never see Jimmy again."

Noah Reyes's face darkened. He had never been warned by anyone before, but right now, he forcibly stopped himself from moving.

Because he was afraid! He feared that his future brother-in-law's words might come true—that he would truly never see his son again!

"Uncle, remember to discuss with my mommy about becoming my godfather," Jimmy Horne reminded Noah Reyes as Glades Horne put him in the back seat of the car.

Hearing that, both Glades Horne's and Noah Reyes's faces turned grim.

Glades Horne's face darkened because of Jimmy's positive feelings towards Noah Reyes; even under these circumstances, Jimmy still felt good about Noah Reyes and even thought about acknowledging him as a godfather.

Noah Reyes's face was unpleasant because his son was actually asking him, his biological father, to be a godfather. He was the father, not a godfather, but his son insisted on adding that one word, a difference that felt worlds apart.

After Julia got in the car, Glades Horne drove away.

Hansen Ruiz looked with mocking eyes at Noah Reyes, who had chased them to the door and was clearly reluctant to watch the Rolls Royce disappear. He laughed and said, "Oh, Noah Reyes, Noah Reyes, it looks like fate is playing with you. No matter how powerful you are, can you outplay fate? Haha, let's not talk about other things. Just remember the time you had your men point a machine gun at Glades. I think you know that Glades holds a grudge about certain things, ha."

Noah Reyes's face turned even darker, and he glared fiercely at Hansen Ruiz.

Even though it was because of Hansen Ruiz that he had found his son and confirmed her identity, Ruiz's attitude of enjoying the drama and schadenfreude made him want to twist Ruiz's head off.

"I'm heading off too. No need to see me out, ha. I surely don't enjoy such a long goodbye," Hansen Ruiz said with a chuckle. He then got into his Land Rover and vanished into the night as well.

"Boss, are we really letting Glades Horne take the Young Master away like this?" Deon Myers asked. He felt that Glades Horne would definitely give the Boss a hard time in the future and wouldn't easily let the Boss see the Young Master again. Even though Glades Horne was the Young Master's uncle, the Boss was still the Young Master's father. Why should Glades Horne interfere in their father-son reunion?

Noah Reyes didn't speak; he was still pondering Hansen Ruiz's words. He knew about his men pointing a machine gun at Glades Horne. Now, by a twist of fate, the two adversaries had...

As for allowing Glades Horne to take Jimmy Horne away, it wasn't that he was afraid of Glades Horne or Benjamin Robinson; he just didn't want to worry Adele. Julia had said that Adele had profound feelings for her son; with her son missing, Adele must have been worried sick.

Thinking of this, Noah Reyes's gaze turned icy, and he ordered through gritted teeth, "Have Silvia Baxter come see me!"

That damn woman! How dare she take such bold action and kidnap the Horne Family's two young masters on her own—wasn't she just pushing Glades Horne to the edge? The Black Emperor Group was still weaker than the Valence Group. Once Glades Horne erupted and directed all efforts against the Black Emperor Group, they were in for a fight. Really, she was more trouble than she was worth. What angered him the most was that Silvia Baxter had kidnapped his, Noah Reyes's, son! He would not, he absolutely would not let Silvia Baxter off easily!

「Horne Family.」

Ivan Horne was returned to the Horne Family by Noah Reyes's men.

By the time he arrived home, the Horne Family was already in total disarray. All the relatives of the Horne Family had arrived. Everyone was in a flurry trying to comfort Mila Anderson, Adele Horne, and the matriarch. Meanwhile, the men were exerting all their influence, searching for the whereabouts of the two young masters.

Who would have expected a strange car to return young master Ivan? The people who brought Ivan Horne back didn't say a word; they put Ivan down and left hastily.

Mila Anderson's heart finally settled at the sight of her grandson. "Ivan, my treasure, you're finally back! You almost scared Grandma to death!" she cried emotionally, picking up Ivan.

Adele Horne searched anxiously for her son. But she couldn't see him anywhere. In desperation, she grabbed Ivan, who was being held by Mila, by the shoulders and asked frantically, "Ivan, where is Jimmy? Weren't you together? Where is Jimmy? What happened to him?"

Only then did everyone realize that someone was missing.

Jimmy Horne was missing.

Everyone's attention had been focused on Ivan Horne, forgetting about Jimmy Horne's existence. As soon as Adele Horne asked, chaos erupted again.

"Auntie, Jimmy was taken away," Ivan said, his face tight with no hint of a smile or the joy of reuniting with his family. "I tried hard to save him, but we were put into two different cars. I was sent back home, but I don't know where they took Jimmy. There was also an older sister with him."

He was worried about Jimmy.

Upon hearing this, Adele Horne's legs went weak.

"Adele," Gio Coleman, who hadn't left yet, quickly rushed forward to support the collapsing Adele and said with concern, "Don't worry, your son must be fine."

"Jimmy, Jimmy..." At that moment, Adele Horne was completely irrational, her mind consumed with the fear that something terrible had happened to her son. The kidnappers might have returned her nephew because of her older brother's influence; they probably didn't dare offend him. But her own son... he was also a young master of the Horne Family, yet he was an 'outside' grandson, a child born out of wedlock. No one even knew who his father was. People weren't afraid of her, a single mother. That's why Jimmy was taken away...

As she thought this, Adele Horne's tears fell even harder. She collapsed into Gio Coleman's arms, calling out Jimmy Horne's name while weeping.

Witnessing her heartbroken state, all the women also started to cry. The men felt heavy-hearted and could only wait patiently for answers.

"The Eldest Young Master is back! The Eldest Young Master has brought Young Master Jimmy back!" Uncle Ying hurried in. As soon as he saw Jimmy Horne in Glades Horne's car, he rushed towards the Main House, announcing the news to everyone.
