Chapter 122 Bruce raised his eyebrows and said, “Are you still not going to say it?” Derick covered his scalded arm and hesitated for a while.
3 69 Then Derick replied, “Bruce, | don’t know where Joanna's son is.” “Hahaha.” Bruce laughed sinisterly.
Bruce said, “I didn’t even tell you which child Joanna lost. How did you know Joanna’s son but not her daughter was missing?” Hearing this, Derick paused and realized he had given himself away.
Everyone only asked Derick if he had seen Joanna's child. No one had told Derick if it was a boy or a girl.
Derick looked around nervously and stammered, “Bruce, I... I'm just guessing.” Bruce said, “It looks like | should push you harder.” When speaking, Bruce gestured to his bodyguards..
Immediately, four bodyguards stepped forward. They took Derick down, grabbed his ankles, and turned him upside down. Then, they stuffed Derick into the toilet bow! again.
A bodyguard kept pressing the flush button.
The water kept rushing into Derick’s nose.
Derick could not breathe this time. He could not even struggle. Water flowed into Derick’s nose and throat.
“Ugh! Ugh!” Derick kept coughing.
Derick twisted his body and tried to struggle.
Unfortunately, Bruce's bodyguards were all one—in—a—million combat experts. Dealing with Derick was a piece of cake for those bodyguards.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDerick’s body fell straight into the toilet bowl, and his head was tightly stuck in it.
At this moment, Derick was in fear of drowning. Derick had never been tortured like this in his life.
Bruce asked, “How about that? Can you tell me the truth now?” Seeing that Derick was getting weaker and weaker, Bruce finally asked his bodyguards to let Derick down.
“Phew! Ugh! Ugh!” Derick kept coughing and rolling his eyes. One of his teeth was knocked out.
Derick looked miserable and pitiful, with his nose and mouth kept bleeding.
Joanna could not face such brutality and turned around to avoid watching this scene.
Joanna thought, “We just suspect it may be Derick and have no evidence to confirm it. Bruce is ruthless to torture Derick like that.” Therefore, Joanna said, “Bruce, stop torturing Derick.” However, Bruce ignored Joanna and continued to interrogate Derick, “Where is the child? This is your last chance. You know | always keep my word. If you don't say it, | won't ask them to stop next round.” Bruce had a feeling that Derick had taken away the child. Moreover, if Bruce wanted an answer from a person, he would definitely get it.
Chapter 122 “The child... The child...” Derick rolled his eyes a few times, and his face turned red.
Bruce threatened, “Where is the child? I'll count to three. If you don’t answer me, I'll get some lo throw you into the sea to feed the sharks!” Many gangs in Greyport often brought their enemies to the open sea. Then, they tied their enemies up tightly and threw them into the sea.
Many rich people would spend money to hire those gangs. After taking the money, those gangs would finish their job without leaving any evidence.
Bruce slowly counted down, “One.” Derick was so frightened that his heart was beating faster. He looked at Bruce in fear.
Derick tried to save the situation and shouted, “Bruce, don't forget you're engaged to my sister!” Bruce ignored Derick’s shouting and continued, “Two.” “Bruce, | swear | don't know!” “Three.” After counting to three, Bruce stood up and snapped his fingers at the bodyguards.
The bodyguards immediately understood Bruce's indication and took out a black plastic bag. They were going to put it on Derick's head.
Realizing Bruce was serious, Derick was so scared that he peed his pants.
Derick stammered. “I... L... I'll tell you. I'll tell you!” Hearing this, Joanna came back to herself and asked, “Where is my child?” Derick looked terrified and stammered, “You child is... in the cistern on the roof.” BOOM! These words were like a clap of thunder to Joanna.
After hearing what Derick said, Joanna gasped, and her feet were so weak that she almost fell.
“Go to the roof!” Then Joanna pulled herself together and ran toward the stairs.
Bruce, Jaydon, and the bodyguards also ran toward the roof.
The photography studio had three floors and a cistern on the roof.
It was hard to imagine what would happen if a four-year—old child was thrown into a cistern.
Soon, they reached the roof.
Then they found a ten—foot-tall cistern with a diameter of about five feet.
“Irvin, Irvin!” Joanna crawled up the ladder of the cistern like a mad woman.
This ladder had no handrails and looked very dangerous.
However, Joanna did not care if it was dangerous now.
Bruce was one step ahead. He grabbed Joanna's wrist and dragged her down, saying, “Joanna, it's dangerous up there! Come down. I'll ask my bodyguards to get there.” Then, four bodyguards rushed over and climbed up the ladder.

10-43 Odl, 24 Chapter 122 Once they opened the lid, they found a large cistern. It was dark down there.
“Mr. Everett, we can’t see anything inside!” “Jump down and look for the child!” ordered Bruce.
“Yes, Mr. Everett!” “Plop, plop!” Two bodyguards directly jumped down the cistern.
Joanna was so nervous that she did not even dare to look at the cistern. Joanna worried that they would only find Irvin's cold body.
Bruce hugged Joanna tightly and could not stop Joanna from shaking violently. He comforted, “It's okay, it's okay. Your child will be fine!” After comforting Joanna, Bruce hugged her even tighter. At this moment, Bruce was also getting nervous and prayed for Joanna's child.
The cistern was ten feet tall. Half of it was filled with water, by% Not to mention a child, an adult may not survive if he was thrown down in that cistern.
A bodyguard jumped in and looked around inside.
Then the bodyguard found a little boy beside a water pipe.
At this moment, Irvin tightly grabbed the water pipe and kept bobbing up and down in the water. Irvin was almost unconscious.
Seeing someone jump. down, Irvin thought it was his illusion and did not even have the strength to cry for help.
“I found him! I found him! I found a boy here!” The bodyguard hurriedly went forward and wanted to carry Irvin.
The bodyguard shouted, “Put down a ladder now! The child is still alive!” Hearing this, Bruce finally sighed in relief and said, “Joanna, did you hear that? Your child is still alive!” Joanna was so emotional after hearing the exciting news that she could not take it and fell.
Bruce hugged Joanna tightly. Then Joanna buried her head in Bruce's arms and could not help crying.
Jaydon watched Bruce and Joanna from the side and suddenly felt upset.
Jaydon murmured, “Yeah. They are a family of three while I'm just an outsider.” Soon, the bodyguards outside the cistern found a flexible ladder and put it down.
The bodyguard comforted Irvin, “Kid, let go of the water pipe. I'm going to get you out of here.” Sadly, Irvin was so frightened that he tightly grabbed the water pipe, unwilling to let go.
