Chapter 1860
Ellinor was in a state of panic. Her mind was a whirlpool of chaos until she saw Theo boot up his laptop. The sight of
the laptop was like a dash of cold water, suddenly bringing her back to her senses.
Yes, through the computer, they might be able to trace the call that warned them not to contact the police.
Realizing this, Ellinor hurried over, intending to push Theo aside to access the laptop. “Move over; I need the
computer!”
Theo turned to look at her. His gaze was calm, but filled with worry. “Stay put. Just watch from the side and leave
the rest to me.”
Ellinor was surprised. She wasn’t aware that Theo was adept at these unorthodox measures. She was about to

AAAres?!
He was AAAres?!
Ellinor was shocked, but there was no time for questions. After learning that Theo was AAAres, she relaxed, stood
aside, and let him trace the call.
If he were AAAres, his skills were likely superior to hers.
True enough, within a minute, Theo had successfully located the caller’s position.
They both stared at the location displayed on the screen, then looked at each other and almost simultaneously
headed for the door.
Theo initially didn’t want to involve Ellinor. He didn’t want her to face any danger, but he knew she would not stay

watch over her.
They hurried downstairs, instructing Grandma, Grandpa, and Veronica to take care of the three youngsters at

When Marissa and Putnam were about to ask something, Theo and Ellinor had already left. The sound of the car
engine was already fading into the distance.
Veronica was also worried, but she could only try to soothe the elderly couple. “Don’t worry, Grandma and
Grandpa, my brother and Ellinor are the smartest people in the world. They’ll find Baber.”

“We still need to alert the police, but not through conventional means. Our house and our phones are likely being
monitored. Grab the laptop from the back of the car, hack into the police system, contact them, and tell them to
proceed cautiously.” He said to Ellinor as the car sped down the road.
Ellinor nodded. “I understand.”
As she responded, she turned to reach for the laptop on the little table in the back.
Meanwhile.
On a barren mountain in the Greenhaven suburbs, a child was locked in a one-meter-tall dog cage inside a cave,
where he was sleeping soundly. There was no light in the cave, only the faint glow of a dying fire. The burning fire
brought a slight warmth to the cold, dark cave.
Baber woke up feeling cold. He hadn’t fallen asleep naturally; he’d been drugged. Now that the effect of the drug
had worn off, he was uncomfortable from the cold and had a severe headache.
After rubbing his eyes, Baber sat up and saw his surroundings, leaving him in a state of confusion.
Where was he? Was he still dreaming?
“You’re awake, kiddo.”
