Jim curled his lips into a bitter smile as he sat in the car, watching Bonnie and Harvey leave.
Even though Harvey ran over and claimed he needed help from Mommy and Daddy, he had only talked to Bonnie from start to finish, without even giving Jim so much as a glance.
Jim thought that under such circumstances, he should not even be helping Harvey if he did not ask for it, but...
He let out a sigh.
Even if Harvey did not come to him for help, how could he ignore his son?
Besides, June was Christopher's daughter, and they had brought the two children home together from Banyan City.
Even though she was not related to him, she was still Harvey's best friend, and thus, Jim knew he had an obligation to help find her.
As soon as he thought of this, Jim rubbed his brows in frustration, picked up his phone, and dialed his assistant's number." Assistant Coleman, help me track down the whereabouts of a doctor named Laura Suess."
Then, after giving his assistant the instructions to do this, Jim let out a sigh, contemplated for a moment, then finally stepped into Tea Cottage.
At this moment, Bonnie and Harvey were watching the surveillance tapes in the living room with the bodyguards flanking them.
According to the surveillance footage, Laura had brought a suitcase with her when she arrived at Tea Cottage that morning.
Bonnie stared at the surveillance footage, frowning. "I hope so..."
"She'll be fine," Jim, who had been watching them in silence from aside, piped up suddenly. "Whoever planned this kidnapping had spent considerable effort to get their hands on such a large suitcase and send Laura undercover to take June, and so, they probably won't hurt her. After all..."
He narrowed his eyes. "If they had wanted her dead, they wouldn't have spent so much time and effort taking her away since a dead body is of no use to them."
Harvey bit his lip nervously. "Even though
your words are meant to reassure me and make me feel better about June's safety, I... It still isn't good to say it in that way, Mr. Jim."
