276

Oneida was surrounded by people, all with angry voices.

However, no one noticed that the little boy who was sitting on the ground had stood up silently.

Then, taking advantage of the chaos, he grabbed Oneida's hand tightly.

Oneida was very sensitive to touch.

Instinctively, she tried to shake off his hand,

However, it was too late. The little boy stopped crying and took out something special quickly.

It was a syringe.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the needle had pierced Oneida's palm.

Pain surged through herbody in an instant.

"Get out of my way!" Oneida furrowed her brow, angrily rebuking the troublemakers in front of her.

Her voice carried a strong sense of authority, like sharp ice, piercingly cold.

Almost instinctively, everyone shuddered.

Some were intimidated by Oneida's aura and subconsciously took a step back.

A feeling of dizziness slowly crept into their minds, and everything in front of her eyes seemed somewhat blurry.

Oneida finally knew what had happened to her.

This feeling couldn't be more familiar to her.

'It was an anesthetic.

The syringe the boy held contained an anesthetic.

'So that's it,' Oneida thought.

Oneida clenched her fingers, thinking, 'It turned out he came to me for this purpose.'

She had been quite unlucky recently, always stumbling upon inexplicable schemes.

"Mom, are you okay?" The little boy didn't leave. He was standing nearby, slightly widening his eyes, pretending to be innocent.

As if he was genuinely concerned about Oneida.

But Oneida felt her strength slowly draining away.

She was running out of strength even to speak.

Oneida closed her eyes slightly to concentrate.

The anesthetic this time was unusually potent. Under the impact of such an anesthetic, her concentration seemed on the brink of collapse.

Finally, her mind roiled; her vision darkened, and she toppled to the side.

Just then...

'Dad, you're here!" the little boy called out excitedly,

Immediately after that, a cold and deep voice sounded in her ear

"My wife is in poor health and is about to faint. I'll take her back! the man said politely

That voice? Oneida wondered.

Just before losing consciousness completely, Oneida's mind was shaken.

It is him! Oneida thought.

Then she fell into the arms of a man and completely lost consciousness.

At this moment, under the big camphor tree in Rainbowia Park, Jackson was sitting alone.

Although it seemed like he was alone, Victor, along with many skilled guards, lurked in the shadows, silently protecting Jackson's safety.

The sky had turned completely dark, but the stars were becoming more prominent, illuminating the heavens with their brilliance.

It was another night of clear and beautiful starlight, serene and tranquil.

Jackson absentmindedly glanced at the starry sky overhead, and suddenly, Oneida's face flashed across his mind.

He was hoping that she would show up soon.

However, when seven o'clock arrived, Oneida still hadn't appeared.

Jackson thought maybe she was stuck in traffic, so he patiently continued to wait under the camphor tree.

But by seven-thirty, Oneida was still nowhere to be seen.

She was late.

This made Jackson furrow his brow involuntarily.

At that moment, a "bang" echoed through the dark night sky, and colorful fireworks suddenly bloomed.

Against the thick darkness, they appeared exceptionally bright and vibrant.

The people in the park had never seen such beautiful fireworks before.

Each burst was like a vivid springtime blossom.

In fact, these fireworks were specially prepared by Jackson for Oneida.

They were fireworks for the love confession.

But the protagonist hadn't shown up and thus couldn't witness them.

The fireworks were in vain.

Chapter 276

Jackson called Victor över.

"Where is she? What the hell happened?" His brows furrowed tightly, his eyes emitting a chilling intensity.

"Mr. Bane, I've investigated it just now. Mrs. Bane went out around 6:20 and arrived at the park at 6:40, but after that... Victor reported respectfully with a gloomy look on his face.

"Check the park's surveillance!" Jackson pressed his lips and ordered firmly.

All the park's surveillance footage was immediately reviewed.

However, one of the cameras happened to be malfunctioning tonight.

Oneida disappeared from the camera's view shortly after entering the park, right in the area where the surveillance was faulty.

Jackson knew that Oneida had once again fallen victim to a plot

This time, he failed to meet the anticipated girl again.

Jackson soon returned to the Garrison Mansion.

He already had a suspect in his mind.

However, he still needed confirmation.

Just as he was contemplating how to rescue Oneida in his study, there came a knock on the door.

"Mr. Bane, it's me," Victor's voice sounded outside the door.

Jackson pursed his lips and replied calmly, "Come in."

As soon as Victor opened the door and came in, Jackson couldn't wait to ask, "Any news about her?"

Victor shook his head with a complicated look.

He raised his eyes, hesitating as he looked at Jackson, his dark eyes filled with embarrassment.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Jackson sensed Victor's unease and asked directly in a cold voice. "Mr. Bane." Victor clenched his fists and sighed meaningfully. "There's still no news of Mrs. Bane, but..." Jackson frowned and asked coldly, "But what? Do you like to keep me in suspense now?" Hearing this, Victor's face immediately flashed with fear. "I dare not. It's just that I have other news."

A deep look flashed in his gaze, and then he continued, "It's about Cece."

"Cece?" Jackson instinctively spoke up, feeling a violent shock in his heart.

Jackson's eyes widened slightly, and there seemed to be a crack on his cold and handsome cheek at this moment.

He froze at once

Countless emotions surged in his heart, and his mind was in turmoil.

'Cece... Jackson repeated this name in his heart.

He had searched for her for so long, thinking he would never find her again.

Chapter 270-

Yet, unexpectedly, he received news of her at that moment.

Jackson just sat quietly at his desk. His face was calm and motionless, like a rigid sculpture.

Everything was too sudden.

He remained silent for a long time, countless emotions flashing in his eyes.

was Victor who broke the silence.

"Mr. Bane, what do you intend to do?" In the only

came back to his senses and asked in an urgent voice.

"What news about Cece? Have you found her?" Jackson

"Not yet, but there's been a bit of progress, a significant development," Victor replied truthfully. "But if we keep looking for her, there is a good chance of finding her." Jackson closed his eyes briefly, his gaze deep.

"Then send someone to follow up and keep looking until she's found," he commanded coldly, then added, "But for now, help me find Oneida first."
