The billionaire's kick-ass wife novel (Isabella) novel Chapter 36

Chapter 36 Easier To Invite Devil

Alan rushed to the kindergarten. When he arrived at the kindergarten, he came across Martin, who happened to be there.

It was Martin, indeed.

Martin had nothing to do on that day. He and Alan had planned this to test Isabella out.

So, Martin went to pick Ricky up. Meanwhile, Alan drove Isabella in the name of picking Ricky up and lured her to jump into the alley.

They also hired some thugs to go after Isabella and force her to expose some of her true self.

As a result, the plan failed because of unforeseen circumstances. Some of the men from Skydragon kidnaped Isabella.

Alan did not know about that yet.

He arrived at the kindergarten and saw Martin picking up Ricky instead of Isabella.

When Martin saw Alan, he was surprised and whispered, “So soon? Did you get to know anything about her?”

Alan’s expression changed slightly as he said, “I lost her. She… Didn’t she come here?”

Martin’s brows furrowed, and he looked around in shock. “Lost her? I haven’t seen her around here.”

That caught Alan off guard.

Ricky suddenly asked, “Mr. Martin, Mr. Alan, did mommy come along? I want to sit in the same car as mommy.”

As he spoke, he wanted to get off the car and head to Alan’s car.

Alan was nervous, and cold sweat drenched his forehead.

Martin was also anxious.

Alan wiped off the sweat on his forehead and said to Martin, “Send Ricky back home. I’ll go and look for her.”

Then, he looked at Ricky and said uncomfortably, “Ricky, your mom did not come because she had something to do. Go back home with Mr. Martin first. I have something to settle and will be back later.”

When Ricky heard that his mother was not there, he looked at their pale faces. He was confused.

He silently glanced at both of them before getting into the car obediently.

Martin took Ricky back home, while Alan sped to the alley where he dropped Isabella.

On the way, he called home, and Cooper told him that Isabella had not returned.

Alan knew Isabella would be in trouble if he did not find her before the sky turned dark. He could not imagine the consequences of the situation by then.

Not to mention how Ricky would react if he found out that they lost his mom. He and Martin did not know how to explain it to Draxton either…

Alan was overwhelmed by his regret. He was in despair. All he wanted was to test out Isabella, and he had never intended to put her in danger.

Isabella was, after all, Draxton’s woman and Ricky’s birth mother…

Alan searched the alley and saw no sign of Isabella.

As the sky grew darker, Alan was contemplating if he should call more people to search for her.

However, by then, he could no longer hide this matter from Draxton.

Alan’s face turned paler.

Meanwhile, Martin was also in a difficult situation.

When they were back home, Ricky thought he could see his mom, but he looked around and did not find her anywhere.

“Mr. Cooper, have you seen mommy?” Ricky asked Cooper.

Cooper was puzzled and asked, “Didn’t Miss Thompson come and pick you up with Mr. Martin?”

Ricky was startled, and he stared at Martin, confused.

Martin did not dare to have eye contact with Ricky.

So, he did not notice the glow and hope in Ricky’s eyes fade.

Cooper’s expression turned gloomy as he glared at Martin sharply. His look was quite different from his usual gentle gaze.

“Martin, Alan and you are Mr. Lockwood’s most trusted subordinates. I hope that you will never do something silly and unnecessary.”

Cooper realized what had happened instantly.

He could see Martin and Alan having a doubt about Isabella recently.

They were not just doubting her. They had even made things difficult for Isabella occasionally.

However, he did not expect they would harm Isabella.

Cooper said thoughtfully, “We must tell the chieftain about this.”

Martin’s face turned pale. After glancing at Cooper, he walked out of the room.

After a while, Martin gathered the guards of the Lockwood family and headed to the alley where Alan was.

Only Cooper and Ricky were in the living room. Worried, Ricky asked, “Mr. Cooper, did something happen to mommy?”

Cooper wanted to say something to Ricky, but he couldn’t when he saw Ricky’s naïve and big round eyes looking at him.

Ricky did not give up and continued, “Did Mr. Martin and Mr. Alan hurt mommy?”

Cooper looked at Ricky and sighed. Then, he squatted as he looked into Ricky’s eyes.

He said, “Mr. Martin and Mr. Alan are just playing a game with your mommy. They will be back after finding her.”

Tears shimmered in Ricky’s eyes. He wiped off the tears and ran out of the living room.

“They don’t like mommy. They all want to hurt mommy. They’re bad people. Bad people!”

He ran so fast that Cooper was too old to catch up.

Ricky ran to the garden and looked at the place where he had stayed for a few days. It still looked unfamiliar. Suddenly, he missed Lotus Village very much.

When Draxton returned, he saw Ricky standing alone in the garden with tears flowing down his cheeks as he stared at the swing in a daze.

He looked lonely and helpless.

Draxton felt sorry to see his son in such a state. So, he strode toward Ricky.

At the same time, Cooper rushed out of the house.

He looked anxious and was drenched in a cold sweat. When he saw Draxton, he froze.

Draxton glanced at Cooper. Then, he approached Ricky. He wanted to carry him as he asked, “What happened, Ricky?”

Ricky did not answer him and even avoided Draxton’s touch. He glared at Draxton warily.

That look broke Draxton’s heart. He was disappointed, but he asked gently, “What happened, Ricky?”

Ricky pouted his lips as he glanced at him coldly. “I want mommy. Return mommy to me.”

Those words shocked Draxton.

It reminded him of Martin suddenly taking the guards on a mission.

“Did something happen to Isabella?” thought Draxton.

He glared at Cooper, demanding an answer.

Cooper glanced at Ricky and sighed as he explained to Draxton.

“Today, Martin and Miss Thompson were supposed to go and pick Ricky up together.

“However, I don’t know why Martin went to pick Ricky up, and Alan seemed to have lost Miss Thompson…”

“Lost her?” Draxton’s voice sounded cold.

Cooper continued, “Before this, Alan called and asked if Miss Thompson was back.

“I don’t know what happened exactly ”

Ricky said, “Mr Martin and Mr. Alan went to the kindergarten, but mommy didn’t go

“Mr Alan thought mommy went to the kindergarten, but Mr. Martin and I did not see mommy. Mr. Alan said. he lost mommy”

Ricky explained slowly and clearly. But his large eyes revealed his wariness and sadness.

He and his mother had a peaceful and pleasant life in Lotus Village, yet this person before him was the one who took them away from the place and hurt his mother

There was a hint of resentment and disgust in his large clear eyes

Draxton’s heart shattered upon seeing the expression on Ricky’s face

He said, “Ricky, why don’t you stay home with Mr. Cooper? Daddy would find mommy and bring her back, okay? Don’t worry

Ricky looked at him and said nothing, but his gaze was cold and distant. It was apparent that he did not believe Draxton

Draxton turned around and left after comforting Ricky.

He was going to find Isabella himself.

Martin had brought their men and met Alan outside the alley. They were looking at the old houses on both sides.

“The thugs said this is the Skydragon’s territory.

“I just had someone check it out. The Skydragon is an underground organization that was formed only six months ago. They do everything from stalking husbands who cheated on their wives to killing people as long as their clients pay them.”

Alan’s voice sounded desperate and hoarse. He knew they were in great trouble this time.

“Did you find out who their boss is? Ask them to help us find her or hand her back to us.”

Martin made a suggestion.

Alan said, “I’ve done some investigation about that. Their boss is a man called Harper Scott. He is in his forties and has gone to prison for 15 years, yet he did not change even after he got out of jail.

“Half a year ago, he took revenge on his enemies and formed the Skydragon. However, Harper has disappeared. No one knows where he lives or who he associates with.”

“They must have some property to support such a large number of people. Find their property and subdue them so we can question them,” said Martin.

Alan said, “I did not dare to mobilize manpower before, but now…”

He looked at the group of guards behind Martin.

Martin quickly sent three men to go and look for the place.

Meanwhile, in the old house down the alley, Isabella had her legs on the coffee table with her arms crossed before her chest. She looked at the bald men lying on the ground from above.

Those bald men had kidnapped her and thought they had a beautiful lady to enjoy with for the day. However, they did not expect the fun would end before it could even start.

Isabella showed an expressive grin as she approached a man with a scar on his face.

The man immediately clasped his hands to his chest and shrank back, pleading for mercy. “Don’t come near me, or else I’ll shout for help..”

The other bald men looked at the man with a scar in disbelief.

“Scar, that’s a weird thing to say, especially when you are the bad guy,” the bald man beside Scar reminded

him.

Scar kicked the bald man and scolded, “Nonsense! What’s wrong with this? Just beg for mercy. Who cares. whether it’s appropriate or not!”

Another bald man warned, “Scar, your posture isn’t right, either”

Scar glared at them. Then, he realized what he was doing Instead of changing, he hugged himself tighter.

Isabella burst out into laughter

The bald men shuddered. They had no mood to make fun of each other anymore and quickly shrunk to a corner of the room, like a few weak and pitiful girls

Meanwhile, Isabella was like a pervert who would force herself on them

Seeing that they were so scared, Isabella turned around and sat on the sofa opposite them.

She looked relaxed as she supported her head and closed her eyes like she was about to sleep

“Miss, aren’t you leaving?”

Scar asked cautiously.

Isabella opened her eyes and glanced at him as she asked, “Leave? Leave to where?”

Scar was speechless.

Usually, shouldn’t she be escaping after beating them up?

But what was the situation now?

She was making herself at home in their house and did not seem like she wanted to leave.

The gangsters finally understood what it meant to say, “It is easier to invite the devil than to allay with it.”

Scar said, “Miss, if you don’t leave now, you won’t be able to leave if our boss comes later.”

“I’m waiting for your boss!” Isabella said lazily with her eyes closed.

Another bald man said, “Look, miss, it’s getting dark. Your family will be worried if you don’t go back.”

Isabella froze, and her gaze turned cold.

Ricky would be sad to know about this.

However, Ricky knew she would be fine..

Therefore, at most, he would be disappointed with Draxton and would not be worried about her.

They had a special bond of trust between them as mother and son.

Isabella started to feel sympathy for Martin and Alan.

She got caught on purpose this time and didn’t return. Everything she did was on purpose.

They would only realize the seriousness of this matter if they could not find her.

She wanted to see what Draxton would do to them.

There was always a price to pay for trying to manipulate her.

So, she had no plans of going back home that day.

The boss of the Skydragon rushed to the place at once when he received the call from his men. So, he did not encounter the people Martin had sent on his way.

The small iron door was kicked open, and a man with a ponytail and a flower-patterned shirt walked in.

Two brawny men followed behind him. Although they weren’t bald, they looked ferocious, and Isabella could see that it would be challenging to deal with them.

As soon as they came in, they saw Isabella on the sofa, with her long hair draping over her shoulder. They didn’t fail to notice her slender figure..

There was no light in the room, so they couldn’t see what she looked like. But they could tell that she was beautiful

All three men had a look of amazement in their eyes.

Even the man in the flower-patterned shirt looked less menacing than he used to be.

The two men behind closed the little iron door and locked it.

Then, the man in a flower-patterned shirt asked, “Who are you, miss?”

His right hand went to his lower back, where he had hidden a gun

However, Isabella was undaunted

She finally sat up straight from the sofa, looked at the man, and said, “Are you the boss of the whatever dragon?”

The man in the flower-patterned shirt and his men were speechless He quickly corrected Isabella, “Miss, it’s Skydragon Thank you

“Oh, it’s Skydragon. Sorry, I couldn’t remember it. After all, the name you gave your gang sounds ordinary It’s difficult to remember

“Don’t be nervous, Mr Flower I just don’t have anywhere to go today, and I want to spend the night at your place

“I’ll leave if you don’t want me to stay tomorrow

All the men were speechless again

They looked at the beautiful woman bewilderedly

Even if she could fight, she acted too arrogantly, especially when she was in the other’s territory

“Miss, my last name is Scott, not Flower

The man in the flower-patterned shirt corrected her again.

“Okay” Isabella glanced at him and said, “I’m sorry. Mr. Scott, right?

Hahaha Do you have a bed here? Are the bedsheet and blanket new? I’m tired and want to take a nap
