Chapter 668 "Scum of the earth, worse than pigs and dogs! Don't let her get away, drag her to the police station!" The crowd was in a frenzy. People swarmed around Fiona, making it nearly impossible for her to escape. Sensing she was in deep trouble, Fiona tried to dash away but found herself quickly encircled. "You think you can run, you lowlife? Off to the police station with you!" "I'm not a criminal, I didn't do it, it wasn't me," she pleaded, clutching her head and glancing at the sea of angry faces with fear in her eyes.
Swere already tugging at Fiona's hair, and it was hard to tell whose fists and feet landed on her.
"Stop, I'm not guilty, I swear..." But no one was listening to her cries.

Eliza cradled Brett, looking at his tear-streaked face with a heart full of sorrow. "Brett, were you scared? Don't worry, Mommy's here." Brett's sobs quieted as he snuggled into Eliza's embrace and fell asleep.
Eliza gently wiped his tears, her heart aching for him. She carried Brett back to the car and called Casper.
In less than half an hour, Casper was on the scene. "You found Brett?" He hadn't expected Eliza to bring him back. "Thank goodness." "Casper, what on earth happened? Why was I kept in the dark?" Eliza kept her voice low, not wanting to wake Brett, but she was still clueless about the whole event.
Casper had no choice but to explain, "Fiona disguised herself as a worker to kidnap Brett. It was all Zach's doing." Eliza was stunned. They had actually targeted her child.
"Is Fiona out of her mind? You gave her so much money, and instead of making a better life for her son, she tries to steal mine. Doesn't she fear karma catching up with her son?" "Don't worry, I'll make sure she pays for this." Casper reached out to hold Brett, but Eliza pushed him away. She glared at him, full of resentment. "Brett's disappearance is a big deal. Why didn't you tellright away?" "I didn't get the chance, and besides, I was sure I'd find Brett before nightfall," His confidence wasn't baseless. He had already tracked down Fiona's location before Eliza called.
Although Eliza trusted Casper's abilities, as a mother, how could she not be the first to know? "What if Brett hadn't been found?" "He would have been." He gently embraced her, calming her fears. "I just didn't want you to worry. But it seems your motherly instincts led you right to Brett." Brett slept soundly, his little mouth occasionally sucking in his sleep.
Seeing Brett unharmed, Eliza decided not to argue with Casper anymore. "Let's hurry back, Grandma must be worried sick, and Brett's probably hungry." "Yes, let's head home." Audrey was pacing anxiously at home. Without any news, she was about to start searching herself.

"Ma'am, the young master and madam are back, and little Brett's been found," Marian's voice was high En with excitement. Audrey paused, then joy washed over her. "Really? Brett's been found?"
She rushed to the yard, Marian quickly following to support herm "Ma'am, don't worry, Brett's really back." "I need to see him with my own eyes to be sure." Casper opened the car door, and Eliza stepped out with Brett in her arms.
Audrey hurried over, inspecting Brett's little face as if afraid they'd brought back the wrong child.
"Brett's really back, thank heavens, thank the guardian angels form guardian angels watching over him."
