“Do you think Robert had planned this car accident for a show?”
Jasper asked with doubt, although he also hoped so.
However, he had sent someone to investigate the scene of the accident and all the details inside out.
So far, no clues or traces had been found.
Everyone knew that Georgia had a deep affection for Robert, and she might just refuse to believe that
Robert had been killed in a car accident.
This kind of speculation could give people false hope, but the people sitting here were afraid. If the car
accident was real, they were all worried that Georgia would not be able to accept the reality, then this
was not a hope, but a delusion and Georgia might fall into even more uncontrollable despair.
“You don't have to worry about me, I know what you all are thinking about.”
Georgia looked at the worried expressions of everyone, and she spoke slowly.
“I'm just having a leap of faith, but if it turns out Robert was actually dead, I won't indulge in this fantasy,
I will take care of Annie on my own, and then work harder to cheer up, but for now, isn't this all a
possibility? After all? There was a fire at the scene of the car accident, and the face of the corpse was
also destroyed, we don’t know yet before his DNA is verified. This kind of thing can be faked, and
Robert also told me that he would do one thing to test the woman. The top priority is that we must find
Ivan, And then keep tracking on Sierra's every move.”
“Actually, based on what I know about Ivan, it was rare to not able to contact him. You know that he
performs operations on some powerful people all over the world. He has a very wide network of
contacts. Most people don't want to offend him, and there are many people who would stand up and
protect him. Nobody would risk their chances, especially when time comes to them requiring urgent
surgeries from a skilled doctor like him. Could it be that Ivan and Robert disappeared together?”
Jason suddenly made a wild guess.
He was obviously more willing to believe Georgia's speculation, and he didn't believe that Robert really
died in a car accident.
People like them might be kidnapped or hunted down at any time, so the security was very strict on
weekdays, afraid of unexpected accidents.
Robert rarely encountered such things before, and he was very cautious in this regard.
Using fake death to perform an experiment to reveal someone’s true colours, that was not a bad idea
anyway.
“If your guess is valid, when is he going to come back? Also, what is he going to do?”
Elsie asked next to her.
“Tomorrow, the members of Simpson’s family will definitely quarrel over the inheritance, won’t you be
able to see the true colours of those people? Everyone in the company will stand up for their own
teams. At that moment, we could easily know who is loyal, who has rebelled, who is indecisive, right
away.”
Jasper commented, smiling with some irony in his tone.
The assets of the Simpson family were managed by Robert's father in the past few years. Of course,
this was done on the basis of the assets earned by Robert's grandfather.
Since then, the Simpson family had always been the top giant.
However, Robert's father rebelliously left the Simpson family when he was young, but the Simpson
family's business was still very stable in those years. It did not grow, yet it did not shrink.
After Robert inherited the Simpson family, the Simpson family has developed rapidly in recent years. It
can be said that all the properties of the Simpson family had been doubled and expanded by his father
and him.
The other partners of the Simpson family were not qualified to fight for inheritance at all.
That was to say, Robert had been kind towards these relatives of his family over the years, and had
been giving them a share of dividends every year.
Very few of these people were genuinely grieving after Robert’s accident, most of them were trying
their best to grab the lion’s share of Simpson's family.
“So you mean, Robert was faking his death just to see if those people are the back-stabber, but I think,
what kind of people are they actually? It shouldn’t be too hard to find out, Georgia said, Robert has
already started his plan. Perhaps, Sierra is the main target for Robert, to see her true colours?”
“It's very likely.”
Georgia answered Elsie's question.
“But, what if we all guessed it wrong?”
Elsie was willing to believe that Robert directed and acted in the car accident, this way everyone
shouldn’t be suffering from the grief.
If Robert was still alive, Annie still had her father, Georgia will also be delighted. She might not like
Robert that much, but she still hoped that this person was still alive, but these are just speculations.
In fact, the higher possibility was that Robert did really passed away in a car accident. Right now,
everyone was just having a leap of faith.
“Tomorrow, other people in the Simpson family will come to fight for the inheritance. So far, the
secretary of the Simpson family has not revealed that there is a will. I will not expose this marriage
certificate tomorrow. First, I want to observe these people. Just let them be, and whether Robert would
come back or not, I will help him to keep the legacy of the Simpson family.”
“Should we control the media? Now, these people have fabricated a lot of rumours. Once they start
scrambling for the inheritance, the price of the shares will fluctuate greatly. If they can have the help of
the media, this will be a never-ending nightmare.”
Wilson suddenly stated out his worry, and Georgia smiled and shook her head.
“The media is unavoidable, and those netizens will definitely notice the headline about the quarrel of
the Simpson family and be there to watch the show. It would be their problem to stop the chaos, not
ours. As for us, the marriage certificate is in my hand. There is nothing to be afraid of. No matter what,
we still have to do our best to find Ivan. If he purposely avoided contact with us, this is of course the
best result. I am afraid that someone wants to hurt Ivan.”
After Georgia finished speaking, everyone nodded.
So far, there were no new clues, only one step at a time.
Tomorrow is the big day, let's see how the Simpson family would fight for inheritance.
After a few people had spoken for so long, it was already afternoon.
Georgia wasn’t in a good mood to cook, so the group ordered takeaways for dinner.
After dinner, Jason and Jasper played with Annie for a while, and they left after that.
Jasper returned home.
Dan has been discharged from the hospital, and Jasper's favourite thing to do was hugging Dan after a
long day of work.
After he walked into the living room, Jasper asked the servants.
“Where is Dan? Where is he right now?”
“Miss Selena went out with him, and she hasn't come back yet.”
Jasper felt a little strange when he heard what the servant said.
It hadn't been long since Dan recover from his operation. It was cold outside, and it's not a good idea to
take the kid out.
“Do you know where did they go?”
Jasper asked the servant again.
“Sir, Miss Selena was in a hurry. She took the baby and got a taxi outside. She didn't even ask the
driver to drive her. We don't know where Miss Selena went.”
Hearing the servant's description, Jasper knew something was wrong.
He knew his little sister, and he loved Dan very much. So he was worried Dan might get sick.
A child staying outside in this weather might easily get sick.
Moreover, his sister had been chatting with him these few days, and she didn't mention anything about
bringing Dan to somewhere. Jasper had an uneasy feeling.
Jasper immediately took out his phone and made a call to his sister, but no one answered. He made a
few more calls, but still no one answered.
“Where is my mother? Is she home?”
“Sir, Madam is reading in the study room.”
As soon as the servant finished her sentence, he hurried to the study room on the second floor.
After knocking on the door, apparently, Elliot was lying on the soft couch in the study room, while she
was reading a book.
“Mom, do you know where my sister went? I heard from the servant that she went out with Dan. It was
a bad and cold weather outside and I don't know what she was thinking. Besides, I called her. No one
answered, Selena didn't tell you why she was going out? I was a little worried whether something had
happened to her.”
Elliot looked at her son, and she asked suspiciously.
“When Selena went out, she told me that she would take Dan for a walk in the nearby park. You know,
it's not healthy to stay in the house for too long every single day. Dan will be happier when he meets
other children outside. It's been a long time, well, Selena hasn't come back. It is indeed kind of
strange.”
Elliot showed a worried look to her son. Obviously, she couldn't let her son know that she had forced
Selena to leave. She even pretended she didn’t know where Selena had gone.
Jasper's face sank as expected. He thought of the last time his sister ran away from home. This time
the situation seemed to be the same as last time, and she left again out of the blue.
But Jasper didn't understand the reason why his sister left the last time. In fact, it was because her
sister was afraid to be forced to get abortion, so she escaped quietly.
But this time, both their mother and him had accepted Dan, and Dan had finally recovered to good
health. Everything was moving in the right direction. Their parents also love Dan very much, and the
family has accepted the child. Why did his sister still want to leave? What went wrong?
Jasper frowned and finally spoke to his mother.
“I have to find my sister, mom, you have some good rest at home, I think Selena has done something
stupid again this time, but you don't need to worry about it, I will take care of it.”
After Jasper finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to walk outside the study room.
But after only a few steps, Jasper fainted and fell onto the ground.
Right at this time, it happened to be seven o'clock in the evening.
Sierra finally found an opportunity to go out.
The excuse she made was that she left something important in the apartment she previously lived, so
she wanted to go out to get it back.
Members of the Simpson family were all following her orders, and very few of them doubted her words.
To show she had nothing to hide, Sierra generously took two bodyguards out with her.
She pretended to go to the apartment where she used to live. After picking up an inconsequential item
and before she was about to return to the Robert’s villa with the car, Sierra told the driver to stop.
“There is a bakery nearby. Their cakes are quite delicious. They have Wesley’s favorite flavors. I am
going to buy some cakes. Could you please find a place to park now?”
To buy a cake in the bakery, Sierra asked the bodyguards to wait outside, and she walked into the
bakery alone.
There are several tables around this bakery where people could take a break and have some snack.
Sierra pretended to choose a few small cakes, a mousse cake, and a matcha cake. After paying for
them, she found a place to sit down.
It was almost the time she and Jayson agreed. Sierra did not call, but sent a message.
“I've arrived, how about you?”
