I Can't Escape The Baby's Father After Returning Novel - Chapter 73
Chapter 73: Jeffrey Escapes
Mike drove and brought Melanda home quickly.
Mandy and Melanda’s mother were waiting for them there too. Everyone was relieved to see them return safely.
Melanda’s mother walked up and hugged her daughter. “Baby, I’m so scared. I’m glad you’re safe.” Melanda understood. After the car accident, her mother must have been worried sick. She comforted her mother and said, “Mom, it’s almost over.”
Just then, Mike’s phone rang. It was the detective.
Jeffrey escaped.
Melanda had just escaped when the owner called 911. A few minutes later, Jeffrey went in to ask the owner. The owner said, “That woman took my car keys and took my car! I heard her call the police!”
Hearing that Melanda had called the police, Jeffrey cursed fiercely and drove away.
The police didn’t meet him on the way to the gas station. It seemed like he had escaped in the other direction.
“Our people are checking the surveillance cameras along the way. I’m sure we’ll have results soon,” the detective said.
“Okay, thank you. It’s been hard on you.” With that, Mike hung up.
Mike’s father asked anxiously, “How is it? Did they catch that bastard?”
Mike shook his head. Everyone fell silent. After all, as long as the criminals were not caught, the danger could not be resolved.
Mike’s mother sighed and said, “I really don’t understand. Why is Jenny so against you guys?”
“Mom, I don’t know either. I broke up with her because she was unfaithful to me, not once or twice, but many times. I was the last person to know. She betrayed me, so the person who should be depressed and thinking about taking revenge should be me,” Mike said angrily.
Mandy said, “Actually, we told you many times, but you never believed us. In the end, you had to see it for yourself to accept the truth. Everyone knew she was a slut. She did such a thing herself, so why should she blame us? What an unreasonable lunatic!”
“No matter what the reason is, she hurt Melanda and Millie. She deserves to be punished. As long as she and her brother are not caught, we can’t let our guard down,” Melanda’s mother said worriedly.
Melanda sat beside Mandy and held her hand.
Melanda asked Mike, “So, what will happen to Dave? Will he go to jail?” She knew this was Mandy’s main concern. She knew what her good friend was thinking.
Mike looked at Mandy but said nothing.
The real mastermind had not been caught. Everything was still unknown.
Mike thought for a moment and said, “I heard Dave’s lawyer is working on bail. I think you guys can have a good chat.”
Tears welled up in Mandy’s eyes. “What’s there to talk about with him?”
Melanda tightened her grip on Mandy’s shoulder and said softly, “I don’t think Dave is evil. Maybe he did approach you for an ulterior motive in the beginning, but you know how well he treated you later on. We all saw it. You should talk about this and face this together.”
“But if he approached me for an ulterior motive, does he really love me? I can’t forgive him for what he did to you and Mike no matter what. Why did he take that photo? At that time, he should have told us what happened. At that time, it still wasn’t too late,” Mandy said sadly.
“So you guys have to have a good chat. Maybe he had his difficulties. After all, he was facing two unreasonable lunatics, right?” Melanda said gently.
“I don’t know. My head hurts.” Mandy covered her face with her hand.
Mike said, “Don’t worry about it. You need to rest.” Then he said to Melanda, “And you, baby, how do you feel? After all, you’re not alone now.”
Melanda glanced at Mike in surprise and then at Mandy. Mandy nodded at her.
“You know everything? I’m sorry, I haven’t had the chance to tell you. There have been too many things these past two days. “.
