Chapter 429
The sunlight bathed her in a golden glow, making the fine hairs on her skin shimmer with a soft radiance. This
peaceful moment felt so perfect that Zachary wished twould just stop here forever.
Suddenly, a distant cry broke the silence. Sarah snapped back to reality and listened carefully before turning to
Zachary with a puzzled expression. "Did you hear that?"
Zachary focused and listened intently. Sure enough, there was a faint wailing sound. He nodded in confirmation.
Sarah stood up, scanning her surroundings. Finally, behind a tree, she spotted a woman lying on the ground,
crying.
She rushed over immediately. "Are you okay? What's wrong?"
The woman's voice was hoarse as she gasped, "I'm going into labor-please help me!"
Labor? Sarah's face turned pale. The woman was pregnant!
She glanced down and noticed that the woman's pants were completely soaked— her water had broken.
Without hesitation, Sarah sprinted away to find a doctor and nurse.
Thankfully, she managed to get help in time. The pregnant woman was quickly wheeled into the emergency
room.
Sarah exhaled deeply, only then remembering Zachary.

on the hospital bed.
That night, Melvin led Sarah into a dimly lit room with an air of secrecy. A few men in black suits stood guard at
the entrance. When Melvin pushed open the door, Sarah saw a man tied to a chair inside.
She glanced at Melvin in curiosity. "Who is this?"
"He's the guy from the car chase."
Ever since Sarah's incident, Melvin had people thoroughly reviewing surveillance footage from various roads.
Pine Mist Island originally had no surveillance cameras, but the moment he purchased the island, he installed
two. Fortunately, those very cameras had captured the suspects’ faces. Though the car windows obscured the
details, he hired a specialist to reconstruct their facial contours. It had taken a long time, but they finally tracked
down this man.
Sarah's gaze fell on the restrained man, and her expression gradually turned cold. The man's face was bruised
and swollen-evidence that Melvin's people had beaten him. However, judging by his silence, he hadn't revealed
anything.
Melvin scoffed. "He's got a tough mouth. Ever since we brought him in last night, he hasn't said a single word."
Sarah nodded and stepped forward, her tone calm but firm. "Leave him to me."
The bodyguards left the room. Though the man's hands were untied, he remained bound to the chair. He stared
at Sarah with an empty, lifeless gaze, as if she were nothing more than an inanimate object.
In the next room, Melvin watched the scene through a surveillance monitor.
Sarah spoke evenly. "You don't have to talk. But can you at least answer a few questions? For the sake of your
family's well-being."
For the first time, the man's expression shifted. His brows furrowed as he finally opened his mouth. "Are you
planning to kill me?"
Sarah let out a dry, self-mocking laugh. "I never said anything about killing. But you... it seems you've already
done that, haven't you? Since you react when | mention your family, why did you still go through with this?"
The man shook his head and fell silent.
"So, you're refusing to cooperate?" Sarah pressed.
"...Ask your questions."
"What's your name?" she asked coldly.
The man hesitated but eventually answered, "David Landers."
"Good." Sarah placed a sheet of
