Kyan Ford slammed down the hotel phone angrily, causing a noise. The noise was so loud that even his assistant, Levi Green, sorting Kyan’s stuff in a corner, was frightened. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

Levi came over and asked, “Mr. Ford, what has happened?”

“I now see the true color of the MacMillan family.” Kyan gave the phone, which he threw on the floor, a fierce stare and said furiously, “How dare they threaten me?”

“Mr. Ford… is it about Ms. Shirley?” Levi heard their conversations in the MacMillan family just now.

Naturally, he assumed that this was what it was all about.

“Why is her daughter sent to jail?” After a fit of anger, Kyan was calm again and nodded, “Go and figure out what happened to her daughter. Try to give me a report today.”

Levi guaranteed his compliance with Kyan and then supported him while he headed toward the sofa beside him and sat on it. Then he went out to run the errand.

Then back to downstairs in the hotel.

On her way out of the hotel, Melissa ran into Dennis, standing at the hotel’s door. She almost bumped into him, but Dennis managed to dodge her in time. However, while they passed by each other, Melissa accidentally glanced at him and felt something perplexing arising. There was then a slight frown on her face.

After managing to hail a taxi, she then left behind all the thoughts about him. Off she went.

Dennis, on the other hand, stopped to watch Melissa after she hopped on the taxi. After that, he went inside the hall with Levi. He was then with Levi because he followed Levi and his father since they left the MacMillan family.

Standing still, Dennis thought for a second and then went inside to collect the information he needed.

The female hotel receptionist, who was quite pretty herself, blushed at the sight of such a nice–looking man when Dennis got to the front desk. The receptionist asked politely, “What can I do for you, sir?”

Dennis smiled in a gentlemanly manner, “Was there a lady who came in to look for Mr. Ford just now?”

On hearing “Mr. Ford” the receptionist nodded immediately, “Yes. Are you looking for Mr. Ford as well?”

Dennis nodded, “Did that lady say any words about her looking for him?”

It seemed like a question that violated the privacy of their customers.

The receptionist was hesitating whether or not to tell him since she wasn’t supposed to. But, that man was just too handsome!

She didn’t have the heart to refuse him.

“It’s OK, I won’t do anything about it. I’ll keep it to myself after gaining the information.” Dennis put his finger gently against his thin lips and hissed in a low voice.

Very… very tempting!

The receptionist was exhilarated and couldn’t resist the temptation to tell him everything, “That lady seemed slightly strange. She asked me to take such a message to Mr. Ford that she would burn the cinerary casket of Shirley if he failed to reply tomorrow.”

“Such bizarre behavior! What kind of person would be so wicked and go so far as to burn someone’s cinerary casket!”

Dennis nodded with a frown, a single eyebrow motion in which he manifested his handsomeness. “Thank you.” he then said to the receptionist.

After that, he left the hotel with Levi, the assistant.

It seemed that his father was under threat.

But, there seemed to be something even more complicated attached to it.

Was it real that his father had an affair with Shirley? Dennis didn’t believe that his father would be that kind of man who cheated on his mother, but this time his father did hurry back to their country only to find the dead

woman.

Maybe this time, it was different.

Then back to an old castle in Fulton.

Paige, the youngest daughter in the Ford family, just came back from her overseas trip yesterday. This morning, she got up and went downstairs for breakfast. When she sat around the dining table, she noticed that only two people, her mother and herself, were in this enormous room.

Paige sat down by the dining table, took a piece of toast, gave it a bite and, couldn’t help asking her mother, “Mom, where are my dad and brother? I didn’t see them last night when I arrived home. Are they on a business trip?” Because she was too tired and it was too late last night when she came back home to ask about the whereabouts of her father and brother.

Her mother Cecilia gracefully put some peanut butter on her bread, “I don’t know what these two people are up to these days. Both of them didn’t show up since the day before yesterday.”

Cecilia did go to their company to check on them, only to get an equivocal answer that they were both on a business trip.

And then she tried to call them both, but they just made some perfunctory excuses about their being away.

She couldn’t cast doubt on them just based on this, right?

She couldn’t do anything but trust them.

“Missing? Is that true, Mom? Then why didn’t you call the police?” Paige was so frightened at the thought of her father and brother nowhere to find that she loosed the bread in her hand accidentally.
