CHAPTER 139
Mrs. Solara nodded skeptically. She didn't want to Ava herself before, so if Uriel wanted to speak up, let her. It would be best if she said exactly what she thought. Beside her, Robison's expression darkened further after hearing Uriel's words. He walked over to them silently, startling Mrs. Solara. "Uriel, what do you mean by that?" he asked, his voice low and tense. "It's clear that it was that broke loser who did it. Just look at him! He probably knows he won't get a fair share of the inheritance and is feeling resentful. People like him should be taken straight to the police." His words were harsh and dismissive, completely ignoring Mrs. Solara's presence. Solara wanted to speak up but ultimately swallowed her words. She knew he wouldn't say anything nice. Uriel looked him up and down, her gaze icy and unbothered by his dark expression. She shot back coldly, "Aren't you a suspect yourself? You were there for hours last night. I didn't mention it when Thomas was around, but let'
CHAPTER 138
Iris was tired of waiting around. After all, the old man wasn't waking up anytime soon, and all she was doing was watching the faces of a few people. Just the thought of running into Robison made her shudder. Walking to the garage, she suddenly felt like someone was following her. She glanced at the other cars parked nearby, trying to reassure herself that this was a hospital, and there were plenty of people around. With that thought in mind, Iris deliberately walked closer to the crowd, but the feeling of being followed didn't fade. She turned around abruptly, but there was no one there. Clutching her bag tightly, she hurried to her car, opened the door, and locked it immediately after sitting down. As she was about to drive away, Robison stepped out from behind a pillar. He watched the blinking red dot on his screen. As soon as Iris left, he would be able to track her with the device he had planted in her car. Their family couldn't afford a second vehicle anyway. In the secure co
CHAPTER 137
Thomas stared at his phone, feeling overwhelmed by everything that had beenhappening lately. One thing after another needed his attention. "Your message is interesting. Alright, I'll give you my number, but you better make sure your evidence is solid," he replied. Without hesitation, Thomas dialed the number."Don't worry, but I need to verify the number first," he added. Iris felt a rush of excitement; it seemed this guy was a bit nervous afterall."Just wait," she said.Thomas hung up and glanced at the voice changer app on his phone. He opened the plugin related to Ms. Hutton, realizing he needed other testers for this. Iris seemed to have something to say, and Thomas was curious. He sent her another number.Ding ding…The phone rang almost immediately. It was clearly urgent, but he wondered where the call was coming from. Surely, they wouldn't be making this call in front of that group of people."Hello," Thomas answered, keeping it brief to avoid saying too much. "Hello, is thi
CHAPTER 136
He scanned the people around him, his gaze icy and indifferent. The lively chatter of those nearby fell silent, and even Solara in front of him was taken aback. What was up with this guy? His sudden cold stare was downright creepy. Ms. Hutton, standing beside him, was also pondering the situation. Thomas turned to her and said something, prompting Poppy to nod before strutting away in her high heels. Just moments ago, people had been curious about the new woman suddenly appearing next to Thomas, but before they could ask, she was already gone."I swear, if my grandfather's condition worsens, I'll make sure you pay for it. I'll have you skinned alive and thrown in prison, where you'll spend the rest of your life," Robison spat, his words dripping with venom. Thomas looked at him, unfazed by the threat.Meanwhile, Solara felt a headache coming on. She was stuck dealing with her son-in-law's nonsense and cursed under her breath, wishing he wouldn't drag her down with him. With a smile, T
CHAPTER 135
Thomas received a phone call from his mother-in-law. "Where are you?" Her tone was filled with frustration, likely because of the incident from the night before. "I'm at home. Ava has already left for work." "My dad's condition suddenly worsened for no apparent reason. You need to get to the hospital right away." The implication was clear: Solara was ready to blame him for whatever had happened while he was supposed to be taking care of her father. "What are you doing? Are you trying to kill my dad? I don't care what you're doing, just get to the hospital now!" Listening to her harsh words, Thomas kept silent, his expression cold, but she hung up before he could respond. The old man seemed fine when he left yesterday. What could have possibly gone wrong? Thomas needed to check in with his informant and get the scoop on what was happening. He also called for someone to pick him up. Going to the hospital would likely mean facing a lot of anger, so it was better to take his time.
CHAPTER 134
"Mom, that's not right. We shouldn't be thinking like this. Besides, Grandpa's health is serious," Ava said firmly, unwilling to let this conversation linger. Even though her grandfather was getting older, that didn't give anyone the right to discuss his affairs so casually. Her mother looked at her, shaking her head in frustration. It was clear she was disappointed. She pointed a finger at Ava, her voice rising. "Are you really going to be this naive? Just look at how clueless you still are, choosing Thomas over us when we had a falling out. Now, with your grandfather's substantial inheritance on the line, you can't just let us miss out on it!" Ava hated hearing this. She had been swayed by such thoughts before, questioning her choice of Thomas, but not anymore. Money was essential in this world, but it wasn't everything. "Mom, stop overthinking it. Grandpa is considering giving us something, and it's not insignificant. What more do you want? The fact that he's even thinking of u
