Chapter 5 Reunion Of The Couple After Five Years - The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife (2024)

Patricia didn't bring Randy home but went to the supermarket first to buy groceries. As she walked out of the store with a bag full of shopping, she was approached by a group of police officers, and the contents of the bag spilled all over the ground.

"Ma'am, you are now implicated in a kidnapping case. Please come with us."

Patricia was dumbfounded. "Who did I kidnap?"

"The little boy beside you."

Patricia chuckled angrily, "Officer, this is my son. Why would I kidnap my own son?"

The police didn't listen, stubbornly dragging Patricia into the police car.

"Mommy!" Randy wanted to chase after them but was held back by the police.

"Randy, your father will be here soon. Behave and don't make him angry anymore."

Randy stopped struggling. He knew very well that when daddy spoke, no one dared to disobey. If he wanted to save mommy, he had to get daddy's permission. A short while after the police car left, a luxurious Rolls-Royce stopped in front of Randy. It was his father.

Martin got out with a chilling aura. The police immediately handed Randy in his arm back to him.

"Mr. Langley, Randy is safely returned to you! The woman who was the kidnapper has been taken away and will be dealt with according to the law."

Upon hearing the police's words, Randy panicked. "I wanted to go with mommy. Why did you arrest her? Let my mommy go!"

Martin had an immense love for his son, who had a heart condition. He carried Martin into the car, placed him on his lap, and gently rubbed his head with his strong and solid hands.

"That person is not your mommy, your mommy died four years ago."

Randy covered his ears and shook his head desperately, "I don't believe you; you're lying to me! Grandpa showed me a photo of my mommy, and I’m not wrong. That's my mommy. I want to find my mommy! Please take me to find my mommy."

Martin's face darkened, and a hint of hostility emerged between his brows. "People may resemble each other, but that doesn't mean they know each other."

Randy couldn't listen anymore, and tears welled up in his eyes. "Daddy, you're a bad person. You let the police take mommy away. I hate you, and I'll never like you again!"

Martin's brow furrowed deeply. His patience was dwindling, but seeing Randy’s tears, his anger dissipated, leaving only heartache. He embraced Randy and instructed the driver to take them to the hospital.

"If you behave and return to the hospital, I'll let her go."

Upon hearing this, Randy lifted his teary eyes to Martin. "Really?"

Martin wiped the tears off his face with his fingertip. "I won't lie to you."

Finally, Randy broke into a smile through his tears and made a pitiful request. "Can I go see her? Or could you bring her to see me?"

Martin didn't give him a definite answer. "We'll talk about it once we're back at the hospital."

Randy nestled in Martin's embrace, speaking with hopeful anticipation. "Daddy, did Mommy come back just to find me? Does she miss me? Will she never leave me again? Can I see her every day from now on?"

Every sentence revolved around Patricia. Martin was getting annoyed by it; he couldn’t allow this to continue. He needed to stop it promptly.

...

Martin sent Randy back to the hospital, instructing Alan to personally take care of him. Then, he drove to the police station and met the woman, who he had despised for five years, at the detention center.

Patricia wore a white turtleneck sweater, with a beige wool coat draped over it. The glamorous lights cast a halo on her, highlighting her beautiful features, making them even more refined and enchanting.

The girl, with baby fat, had shed her youthfulness and transformed into a sexy and alluring mature woman, as beautiful as a fairy. Martin never knew that she could be this beautiful.

Seeing him staring at her without saying a word, Patricia furrowed her brows and asked displeased, "Mr. Langley, what do you mean by this? Why imprison me?"

Martin stared at her delicate face and warned, word by word, "You abandoned Randy because of his heart disease and turned your back on him! In the past five years, you haven't been by his side. I hope you won't disturb his life in the future."

With teary eyes, Patricia explained, "I had no other choice back then! Randy's heart disease required a large amount of medical expenses, and I had no money. I had to send him to you."

Moreover, she had two other children to support. She simply couldn't afford Randy's medical expenses.

"Hmph..." A trace of mocking appeared in Martin's icy gaze. "Don't try to excuse your irresponsibility."

No money, did that mean she couldn’t keep Randy? Patricia knew she was wrong, and no matter how much she said, she couldn't change the fact that she abandoned Randy. Seeing her silent, Martin interpreted it as her acceptance, his handsome face overshadowed by anger.

"If you don't want Randy to suffer because of you anymore, then don't acknowledge him as your son." Patricia never once considered acknowledging Randy. As long as she could see him every day and accompany him, she was satisfied.

"I won't acknowledge him."

Martin hadn’t expected her to agree so readily, and a trace of surprise flashed in Martin's eyes.

Taking a step back, Patricia laughed at his confidence.

"Mr. Langley, don't think everyone is as shameless as you. I'm doing this, not for you, but for Randy."

Martin instantly became furious, "Don't appear in front of my son and me again."

After saying that, he stood up and walked away without looking back. Patricia wanted to tell him that they would meet again soon. But the words were swallowed back at her lips. She was looking forward to the expression on Martin's face when he found out she was the heart surgeon he had paid a fortune for.

Martin followed through on his words and instructed the police to release Patricia. After coming out, she immediately called Jade, “Jade, did Charles leave?”

"Leave? He has been sleeping at home this whole time...Wait a minute..." Jade paused on the other end of the phone, followed by a scream, "Ah...Where's Charles? Where did he go? He was sleeping when I left!"

Patricia's mouth twitched, knowing that Charles had played a trick on Jade. Just as she was about to say something, she heard Jade continue, "He's back! Charles is back! You scared me. I thought I had lost the child!"

Upon hearing that Charles had safely returned home, Patricia breathed a sigh of relief. After ending the call, she hurried back home to Riverside Apartments. Jade went to make dinner. Fannie finally found an opportunity, her eyes shining with excitement as she asked Charles,

"Charles, did you see Randy? Did you tell him about your sister?"

Charles shook his head in disappointment, "Randy ran away from the hospital. Dad is sending people everywhere to find him."

Fannie anxiously asked, "Did they find him? Is Randy okay?"

Charles replied with disappointment, "They found him! But Dad sent people to watch over him, so I didn't get to see him. I can only wait for another opportunity to come."

Fannie also looked disappointed. However, she wasn't discouraged. They, as siblings, would have another chance to meet. Patricia rushed back home and the first thing she did was check on Charles.

"Were you scared at the entrance of the supermarket just now? You were gone for so long..."

"Mom, what are you talking about?" Charles blinked innocently with his big, harmless eyes, looking at Patricia.

Patricia hesitated for a moment; a bold thought crossed her mind. "You, you didn't go to the hospital to find Mommy just now?"

Charles shook his head, "I did want to go to the hospital to find Mommy, but I couldn't find her."

His answer confirmed Patricia's suspicion. She knew that the child, she was with just now, was Randy, whom she had been thinking about day and night, her body couldn't stop trembling with excitement, sadness, and disappointment.

No wonder Charles had held her and cried, and no wonder Martin didn't ask about Charles. It turns out he wasn't Charles, he was Randy.

Charles and Fannie didn't know what had happened and asked anxiously, "Mom, what's wrong? Did something happen?"

Not wanting to worry them, Patricia sniffed forcefully, held back her tears, and composed herself, "I'm fine, you guys play for a while, I'll go to the kitchen and help Jade."

With that, she got up and walked into the kitchen. Charles and Fannie exchanged a glance, feeling that she was acting strangely, not like what she had said about nothing happening.

They knew their mother had her own secrets, and since she didn't want to say, they wouldn't force her.
