Investigate The Matter
“I think so. Otherwise, Daddy wouldn’t be so confident that Mommy will be safe and will meet us soon.”
“However, things might turn out to be different. Will Mommy be in danger if Daddy’s plan fails? That is
why I think our top priority now is to exchange Skyler for Mommy.”
After pondering over it for a while, Kyle thought Juan was right. “Hmm, I agree. Let’s ask Daddy later.”
After waiting for two hours at Imperial Garden, Kyle and Juan finally saw Evan’s Maybach approaching
slowly.
Juan came up to Evan and asked, “Daddy, where have you been?”
Evan hopped out and glanced at Juan. “I went to Bernian Hospital just now. Since it is your mom’s
blood, sweat, and tears, I would visit it whenever I’m free.”
“Daddy, I understand that you always visit the hospital because you miss Mommy.”
Juan knows that I go to the hospital often because of Nicole.
Surprised, Evan asked, “What else do you know?”
“I also know that all of us miss Mommy. Well, there is a good opportunity to get Mommy back. Plan
well, and I believe you can see her soon!”
Evan calmed himself down and asked casually, “What opportunity is that?”
“Steven’s son is in our hands now. Since he is Steven’s only son, I believe Steven will agree to it if we
use him in exchange for Mommy!”
“Did you say Steven’s son is in your hands?”
“Yes! Kyle asked his subordinates to get him.”
“He will be of great use. Keep an eye on him, and don’t let Steven’s men rescue him.”
Juan blinked his eyes with surprise upon hearing it from Evan. After all, he had expected Evan to make
a plan to get Nicole back by offering Skyler in exchange.
“Daddy, don’t you want to exchange him for Mommy? Are you so certain that Mommy will be alright?”
“You don’t have to worry about that. Instead, just do as I say.”
“Daddy, I know you might have assigned some skilled fighters to protect Mommy. However, if Steven
decides to burn or use other cruel methods to harm Mommy, it might be too late to save her.
“Steven’s son insisted that you killed Steven and even intended to harm the entire Maupay family. In
the end, Steven escaped from the brink of death.
“Besides, Steven’s arm was chopped off back then. Daddy, is it true that you don’t remember any of it?”
“Juan, are you suspecting that I did it?”
“No, I’m not. I only wish to get to the bottom of it to find out if there is any misunderstanding between
the two families.”
“Kyle, do you think Daddy did it?”
After scanning Evan for a while, Kyle shook his head in response. “I believe in Daddy. Back then, there
were many options to bring down the Maupay family. Hence, you didn’t have to go the extra mile.
Moreover, it wasn’t your usual way of doing things.”
Evan heaved a sigh of relief and replied, “Since both of you don’t think that I did it, I’ll let you guys
investigate the matter. I believe that you will get to the bottom of it soon.”
With that, Evan fell silent and headed toward the study room upstairs.
Then, Juan turned around to look at Kyle and asked, “Daddy only asked us to investigate the matter
that happened years ago. What about Mommy? Are we still going to exchange Steven’s son for her?”
Kyle pondered over it for a while and responded, “Since Daddy has chosen to do so, he surely has
absolute confidence in it. I think we ought to trust him.”
Upon hearing it from Kyle, Juan stopped dwelling on it. However, he still felt uneasy deep down.
Daddy, what did you do to Mommy? Why are you so sure that Mommy won’t be in danger?
As Juan was deep in thought, Sally came downstairs.
“Well, I’m heading out for a while.”
I’m sure Sally has received the news that Skyler had been captured. Is she going out now to discuss
the next move with Steven?
Judging from the uneasiness on her face, it’s highly likely! If I follow her secretly, I might discover
Steven’s hiding spot and see Mommy.
