Chapter 44: You’re Hana’s children

Orland took a deep breath before finally nodding.

"Is the car ready?" he asked.

"Yes, Sir. But the car cannot enter the dock area. You’ll have to walk for about three minutes from here to reach the car."

Orland shifted his gaze toward Hana’s three children before nodding.

"What are you going to do?" Kevin asked.

"Quiet. Dad will take you to the car. We need to hurry."

"You! Put me down right now. Do you have any idea how embarrassing this is?" Kevin shouted.

Orland did not answer. He continued carrying Kevin with his right arm as he walked away from the dock.

Zahn, who was walking beside him, smiled mockingly. However, that smile immediately disappeared when Orland suddenly reached for him.

"W-what are you doing?" Zahn shouted in panic.

"Quiet and hold onto my head." Orland skillfully lifted Zahn until the boy’s body was sitting on his neck.

"You! Put me down right now!" Zahn shouted while struggling.

"You’ll fall if you keep moving. Do you want to see your mother and Grandma crying over your injured bodies?" Orland threatened.

Zahn immediately went silent. Hana was his limit. He would never let Hana cry.

Sean, who saw this, only glanced at them briefly before walking ahead.

When Orland saw him, he immediately quickened his pace. "What are you doing?" he asked.

His hand quickly grabbed the collar of Sean’s clothes. "Who said I would let you walk by yourself?"

He lifted Sean’s body with his left arm.

"You! You’re not my father! What are you doing? Your son is Kevin, not me!" Sean shouted.

"You’re Hana’s children. And Hana’s children are also my children. Now be quiet and let Dad carry you to the car. We need to hurry if we want to see your mother."

Sean glared at Orland angrily. However, he did not argue anymore when Hana was mentioned.

Carrying all three children at once, Orland walked quickly toward the car. Once they arrived, he put them into the vehicle one by one.

"Go," he ordered.

"Yes, Sir," the driver replied.

"Go to sleep for now. I’ll wake you up when we arrive. The journey will still take some time."

Sean, Zahn, and Kevin nodded. They closed their eyes almost at the same time. They had not slept well since last night. After everything that had happened, their bodies could no longer resist the exhaustion.

Orland looked at the three of them one after another. "Well... having two extra children isn’t so bad either," he muttered. "At least Hana clearly loves them very much. Getting these three children’s approval is the easiest way to win Hana’s heart."

Twenty minutes later, the car stopped in front of Hana’s residence.

Orland patted each of them on the shoulder. "Sean, Kevin, Zahn. Wake up."

The three immediately responded. Their eyes opened almost at the same time.

After blinking several times, Sean immediately grabbed his bag and got out of the car. Without waiting for the others, he ran toward their rented room.

Kevin and Zahn followed behind him.

"Sean, what’s wrong?" Kevin asked when he saw Sean’s expression suddenly turn gloomy.

However, Sean did not answer. He immediately ran into their rented room. Kevin’s gaze finally followed Sean toward their rented room.

Zahn, who was behind Kevin, also looked at the condition of their rented room from outside. His eyes widened slightly before he hurriedly followed Sean. Kevin followed behind him.

Orland also entered, but his steps stopped right in front of the door. The small room was a mess—the mattress had been overturned, the wardrobe was wide open, clothes were scattered everywhere, and the television had fallen onto the floor.

"How dare they touch a woman from the Hesh Family," he scoffed.

"Mom’s belongings are gone. All of them. Only our belongings are left," Sean said after checking the room.

Kevin immediately clenched his fingers tightly. His eyes glistened when he heard Sean’s words. "Grandma..."

Without wasting any time, Kevin turned around and ran toward the room in front of theirs. Sean and Zahn immediately followed, while Orland followed behind them.

Click!

"The door is locked from the inside! We can’t open it!" Kevin shouted.

"Move back," Orland ordered.

Bam!

With a single push of his shoulder, the wooden door immediately burst open.

"Grandma!" the three shouted at the same time.

Jesy, Jexy, and Jezy were lying on the floor right behind the door. They were lying there with pale faces and weak breathing.

"Grandma! What happened to you? What happened?" Kevin shouted in panic.

Zahn immediately knelt down and checked their pulses one by one. A few moments later, he let out a sigh of relief.

"They’re all still alive. We need to take them to the hospital. Right now!"

Orland nodded. "The car will be here soon—two minutes," he said before ending the call.

"Grandma... Mom was taken away. You’re all we have left. What should we do?" Zahn sobbed.

Kevin grabbed Jexy’s arm, the grandmother who was closest to him and also his teacher. "Grandma, don’t die. I promise I won’t hack random people anymore. Wake up quickly," he said with reddened eyes.

Sean knelt beside Jesy with the calmest expression, but his eyes kept trembling. "Grandma, I promise I’ll make everyone who hurt you and kidnapped Mom pay. I promise. So wake up quickly."

Orland gently pulled them away. "They’re still alive. Trust Zahn. Don’t cry. We’ll take them to the hospital. It’ll be here soon."

Hearing Orland’s words, Zahn immediately stood up. He ran toward the room he used to study medicine with Jezy.

Not long after, Zahn returned with several pills in his hands. "Give them one each," he ordered.

Zahn put one pill into Jezy’s mouth, followed by Sean and Kevin without asking any questions.

Not long after that, Orland’s men arrived and entered the house carrying stretchers.

Orland immediately pulled Sean, Kevin, and Zahn away so they would not get in the way.

"Sir," said one of the men who was now helping them transport the three of them to the hospital. "Their conditions aren’t too dangerous, except for the last woman we carried out. Her condition is the most serious."

He pointed toward Jexy, who had just been carried out on the last stretcher. "We’ll arrange an operating room for her as soon as possible."

Orland nodded firmly. "Save all three of them. Not a single one of them can be lost. Use the Hesh Family emblem if anyone tries to stop you."

He handed over the necklace engraved with his family emblem.
