Chapter 1046 It's a Dead End Anyway

Two minutes later, Todd and his men arrived and handcuffed the remaining kidnappers.

Jerry had placed the unconscious Melvin at the corner of the stairs on the first floor. Seeing that the situation was under control and Aedan was unharmed, he turned to go back to his son.

"Jerry."

Aedan, now untied by Todd, looked at Jerry with a blend of emotions in his eyes. He asked coldly, "Why did you choose to save me? Was it guilt? Or pity?"

Having grown up with health issues, Aedan endured pain throughout his childhood.

Since childhood, he has never attended kindergarten due to his congenital heart condition. He will be a child with health issues throughout his life.

Jerry lowered his eyelashes, furrowed his brows, and remained silent.

"If you hadn't caught Melvin just now, he would have fallen to his death. Are you that cruel to your own son? Do you think that by choosing me, I'll be grateful to you? That I won't hate you?"
