The Light of Love (Children of Genius)
Chapters 18. Panicked

Roberto pondered to himself in the room where Ella was being treated. The woman fell asleep after receiving treatment for stress and low blood pressure, after kidnapping her child so that her body was weak.

Roberto's memory returns, as he chatted with Isabella over a phone call some time ago as he managed to escape the people who surrounded him.

"You know the answer, Roberto. I want you to come back to me. W-but, I don't think that's possible for you to do." That was what Isabella said with a cynical tone.

"That's not going to happen, Isabella. I've left that dark world, and I won't ruin my life and Ella's."

"Think about it, Roberto. Reo is in danger, and only you can save him. Hahaha ..." Isabella poses a threat.

"Please, Isabella, let Reo. We can find another solution" Roberto asked, pleading.

"There's no other solution, Roberto. You have to make a choice now." Isabella answered coldly.

The man knew that the police were looking for Isabella, using advanced technology to track her movements. They have managed to find Isabella's hideout in a remote house in the countryside.

After finding Isabella's location, the police and Roberto do have planned an ambush. They chose the right time to launch this action so as not to harm Reo.

But because of the words of Isabella's father, they did not dare to act rashly. If they don't do something carefully, Reo's safety could be jeopardized.

"We are waiting for the results. Isabella's father, is heading to Isabella's hideout along with some cops."

Roberto, speaking to himself as if Ella could hear him. He just wants to make sure Ella is okay before he catches up to Isabella's ambush.

After a nurse arrives, the nurse is assigned to take care of Ella, Roberto immediately leaves.

"Sus, please take care of him. Me, go first."

"Good, sir."

At the target location, Ella's father had already come and met Isabella. They, father and son, were talking inside the house. Unfortunately, Isabella rebelled and ran away.

When the hiding police find out, there is an unbalanced chase because Isabella tries to escape by bringing Reo. But he did not succeed, because of the hassles.

"No! Let me go!" isabella shouted, beating the hands of the policemen who blocked her.

"Suckers! Go!"

"Direct handcuffs, let's not fight." One policeman gave instructions to the other.

Reo, it's been taken over by the other cops. His father, Isabella, looked at his son with concern.

Reo is finally rescued by the police, just as Roberto arrives. He immediately asked Reo and took him in the car to be taken to the hospital, so he immediately got treatment because of his weak condition.

Isabella herself was arrested by the police and taken into custody, accompanied by her father. He must face legal consequences for his actions.

"Thank you, Roberto, Doctor Samuel."

Ella, thank the two men who helped her find Reo.

In addition to his limp body, Reo also experienced trauma due to the kidnapping. He must undergo counseling and get emotional support in order to fully recover.

After a tense rescue, the atmosphere in the hospital became calmer. Ella sat by Reo's bed, holding her hand affectionately.

Roberto and Doctor Samuel stood on the other side, giving them space for both. They looked towards Ella and Reo with a relieved smile.

"For Reo's safety, I'm willing to do anything" Roberto said sincerely.

Doctor Samuel nodded in agreement, "Reo is our top priority. We will continue to provide the best support and care for her."

A few days passed, Reo began to show signs of recovery. With the support of Ella, Roberto, and the medical team, he began to rebuild his confidence.

Meanwhile, Ella also received counseling to help her overcome her trauma. They both support each other and rebuild their lives after the crisis they experienced.

Although the future is still full of challenges, they know that with love, support, and unity, they will be able to get through all the obstacles that may come.

"I must remain careful and look after Ella and Reo. Isabella, is no ordinary girl. He likes reckless!"

Roberto, despite saving Reo, feels the burden of Isabella's threat is still lurking. Every step he took had to be carefully considered, and their safety had to come first.

They decided to upgrade their security systems and asked for help from the authorities to keep them safe. Roberto also asked for advice from friends who have experience in the world of security.

Meanwhile, the police work hard to ensure that Isabella can no longer harm them. They made sure that legal action was taken to protect Roberto and his family.

"Roberto, this legal process is so complicated. I, fear that Isabella's father will use his standing to influence the outcome." Ella spoke agitatedly.

"I feel that way too, Ella. But we must stay strong and believe in justice. Our legal team will work hard to ensure that this case is handled fairly." Roberto tried to understand, by trying to calm down.

"I just want Reo to be able to live quietly and free from this threat" Ella said, looking at her son.

"We're going through it together, Ella. Reo will have a bright future, and we'll take good care of him."

Roberto touched Ella's shoulder in a low tone, giving the woman some calm.

The legal proceedings against Isabella proved more complicated than they had imagined. Isabella's father, who is a high-ranking official, makes the case difficult to run fairly.

But the police did not give up. They work hard to ensure that legal proceedings continue in accordance with the rules, despite outside pressure.

The legal team representing Roberto and Ella also had to fight hard. They must prepare a strong case, gather convincing evidence, and find a way to overcome the influence of Isabella's father.

Meanwhile, Roberto and Ella must be patient and trust the legal process. They know that justice must be upheld, despite facing difficult obstacles.

In this situation, their strength, patience, and determination were tested to the limit. They hope that the end of this legal process will bring justice to Reo and ensure their security in the future.

At the police station, Isabella was talking to her father. Trying to find the best solution for Isabella's current condition and state.

"Dad, Bella needs Dad's help. Bella, can't let them ruin my life like this!" Isabella spoke with anger.

"Calm down, Bella. I'll solve this problem. We'll find a way out together" Isabella's father replied in thought, devising a plan.
