Chapter 478: Chapter 478: You Are Heartless, I Can Only Be Ruthless

Waylon Lewis had already taken Hope Williams back to the villa after her discharge from the hospital.

Hope Williams ran upstairs to find her phone, only to discover that Luke and Willow had called her multiple times around noon while she was at the hospital.

However, since she hadn’t brought her phone with her, she didn’t receive any of them.

The two little ones must have been anxious because they couldn’t reach them, so they came to City A.

Hope Williams clutched her chest, which felt choked up, struggling to catch her breath as she had already been restless all day.

She didn’t know how Luke and Willow were doing now.

Maverick Williams had given her time to think, and during this period, he would not harm Luke or Willow.

But as a mother, she was still worried.

At this moment, a phone call came in, regardless of who it was, Hope Williams immediately answered.

"Have you made up your mind?" Maverick Williams’s calm voice asked.

Hope Williams clenched her fists, "How are my children now?"

"They’re fine, they’re playing on the computer now. You’d better let me see you soon, otherwise I can’t guarantee I’ll keep letting them enjoy themselves."

Maverick Williams threatened.

"You are despicable and shameless," Hope Williams said, her eyes reddening with anger.

"This was supposed to be a simple situation, if you were willing to save Luna, there would be no problem."

Maverick Williams sighed and continued, "I know this situation is a bit unfair to you, but she is your sister, blood is thicker than water, you can’t just watch her die. I’ve also said I would compensate you. You are being heartless, I can only be ruthless."

Hope Williams took a deep breath, her eyes reddening.

"Heartless? What about you? Luna’s life matters, but my children’s lives don’t? You keep claiming to be my grandfather, but what kind of grandfather forces his own granddaughter like this?"

"But I am also Luna’s grandfather, I can’t watch her die," Maverick Williams stubbornly said.

Hope Williams knew it was pointless to reason with him, so she stopped.

After silence for a while, Maverick Williams spoke:

"I know you guys want to directly come and rescue the children, forget about it. If you don’t show up, I’ll do everything in my power to prevent you from finding the children. Little Hope, you should know that I am more familiar with City A than you are."

He was warning her, telling her not to harbor any foolish hopes, that if he wanted, he could completely hide the children.

Hide them where they couldn’t be found.

That would make things even more troublesome.

After a long pause, she said, "I understand."

Just after she hung up the phone, a loud roaring sound came from outside. Hastily, Hope Williams went to the French windows, as helicopters approached from afar and landed in the field.

Hope Williams immediately went downstairs.

Waylon Lewis was ready to leave.

"Waylon Lewis," Hope Williams called him.

Seeing her running hastily, Waylon Lewis, afraid that she might fall, reached out to grab her hand.

"I’m going too," Hope Williams said firmly.

"No."

Waylon Lewis looked at Hope Williams calmly, "He’s targeting you, it’s risky for you to go."

Hope Williams shook her head, "If I don’t go, and he gets agitated, the situation could get messy. If I am there, I can temporarily stabilize the situation, let me go."

If she didn’t go, both sides would inevitably fight over the children, undoubtedly leading to serious harm to both.

So she had to go.

Maverick Williams had left her no choice, with the children in his hands, they had no leverage—he was forcing her to go.

She couldn’t consider too much anymore.

Waylon Lewis’ intense gaze lingered on her, as if contemplating, and after a long time, he finally said, "Alright."

Hope Williams grasped Waylon Lewis’s hand, "Save Luke and Willow first, then save me."

Waylon Lewis’s brow furrowed, just about to speak, Hope Williams knew what he was going to say and preempted him, "I mean in case of danger."

Hope Williams was unusually calm at the moment, considering all possible emergencies that could arise.

...

After finishing the call, Maverick Williams showed a trace of a smile, he knew Hope Williams would definitely come.

As a mother, she wouldn’t be at ease about her children.

He walked towards Luna Williams’ room, where Luna Williams saw Maverick Williams and tenderly smiled, calling out softly, "What’s wrong, grandpa?"

"Grandpa is taking you away first."

"Why?" Luna Williams was puzzled.

"Because you will be saved soon." Maverick Williams said, "The surgery can’t be done here, it’s too dangerous."

Hearing Maverick Williams say this with such certainty, Luna Williams could roughly guess the reason, her heart filled with immense joy.

She was finally going to be saved.

Fantastic!

She wasn’t going to die!

"Alright."

Luna Williams didn’t ask further and agreed immediately.

Just then, a "thump" sound echoed!

All of the lights suddenly went out, plunging the entire Williams family mansion into darkness.

A power outage?

"What’s happening, grandpa?" Luna Williams panicked, hurriedly searching for her phone for light.

Maverick Williams was also stunned, wondering how there could be a sudden power outage.

This had never happened before.

"Don’t worry, I’ll go check it out, you stay here."

Downstairs, after Luke did all of this, he gripped Willow’s hand in the darkness and whispered low, "Willow, run quickly."
