Chapter 121 Walls Had Ears
Chapter 121 Walls Had Ears
Putting on a sullen face, Emma and Owen were thinking who did it tonight.
As for Eden, originally, he wanted to see the dilemma of Jasper and Selena, but because of Robert’s disappearance, the party of the Murphy family was ended ahead of time, so he went back home with Flora. Eden was unhappy for missing the embarrassing story of them.
But Eden was quite pleased with himself. He believed that Jasper and Selena could not be close siblings after everything they had been through.
What’s more, he still had Selena’s sex photos.
He had many chances to threaten Selena and made her feel humiliated. Thinking of this, Eden was in a good mood and started to play computer games.
Flora was relieved when she saw Eden behave well lately and stay at home, playing games and watching movies.
At the Murphy’s, Robert’s mother, Maisie had arrived.
She did not attend Mr. Murphy’s birthday party. Robert attended the party on behalf of the Simpson family. Maisie never thought that such an accident could happen.
After being told what happened, Maisie asked Mr. Murphy.
“Mr. Murphy, how much do you know about it? Have you found out who did this?”
Maisie was anxious. She had lost a daughter. She felt she would go mad if she lost her only son.
She went over the people with a grudge against the Simpson family, but she could not find a clue at all.
For a powerful family with big business like the Simpson family, they always got a lot of enemies. It was hard for Maisie to figure out who was the criminal.
Mr. Murphy felt terribly sorry for Maisie.
“It’s my family’s fault. We didn’t expect so many things could happen. I have sent my men to investigate closely. Don’t worry. We will find out the truth!”
Jason’s father, Jordan also promised Maisie.
“Mrs. Simpson. Don’t worry. We will try our best to save Robert.”
Jason’s mother, Molly Lewis stood by Maisie, feeling very sorry. She was a mother, so she knew clearly how hurt parents were when their child was in danger.
“Mrs. Simpson, I’m sorry…”
Everyone knew they should say something nice in such a situation. And Maisie could not make Mr. Murphy lose face.
Promises were useless. Now Robert had been missing. And Maisie could only rely on her connections to find out where Robert was.
Maisie brought Robert’s assistant over and asked him.
“Does your boss have any protection for an emergency?”
“Ma'am, Mr. Simpson only ranged the alarm on his wrist. But we followed the sign and found that his watch was dropped in downtown. It seems that the kidnapper knows Mr. Simpson has a watch with a GPS tracker. Now we have no idea where Mr. Simpson is.”
Maisie banged hard on the desk in anger.
“You shits. You can’t even find your own boss. What are you doing here? Go and find him! Don’t tell me you have no other ways to find him except for the GPS tracker.”
After she scolded Robert’s bodyguard team, Maisie swallowed her pride and called all her relatives and friends and asked them for help.
The branches of the Simpson family must have come to her villa to ask what happened. And the company must be in a mess now.
Maisie kept telling herself to stay calm, but she had too many things to deal with.
Maisie didn’t go home right away, instead, she came to the hospital.
She went to Emma’s room.
The Murphy family said that when Robert was taken away, Emma was there and fainted at the scene.
Maisie had to ask Emma what happened at that time.
“Auntie, why are you here…”
Emma felt a bit surprised when she saw Maisie here.
“Emma, what exactly happened tonight? Tell me all the details!”
Emma knew this was her chance.
She would definitely put Georgia in dead end.
“Auntie, it’s Georgia’s fault!”
Maisie knew Robert was missing together with Georgia. She was angry with Georgia.
Hearing Emma’s words, Maisie’s turned sullen.
“Tell me, what exactly was going on?”
“Auntie, Georgia stirred up troubles at the party. I’m afraid that she had provoked somebody! Later, I saw a woman come to Robert. And then Robert followed the woman to the backyard. I quietly followed them out of curiosity.”
“I didn’t expect that when I got to the backyard, I saw the woman pull unconscious Georgia up from the ground and force Robert to drink the wine in her hand. At first, Robert was unwilling to do so. But the woman put a knife on Georgia’s neck and threatened Robert. If Robert did not drink the wine, she would kill Georgia. Then Robert did as she told and passed out. I wanted to go back and ask for help, but the woman found me. She caught up with me and knocked me out! Auntie, I’m sorry. I didn’t keep Robert safe.”
“I didn’t expect that Robert would care so much for Georgia. He would rather be in danger than watch Georgia being hurt … Auntie, I’m not good enough to have his love … Maybe I should annul our engagement…”
After saying this, Emma appeared to be sad and started to cry. She looked vulnerable.
Maisie felt heart-ached with rage.
Georgia again! Was Georgia here to kill her children intentionally?
Georgia was a curse!
Maisie would definitely not let this curse marry Robert. Even though she did not like Emma that much, she would rather Robert marry Emma.
Also, Maisie would never allow Robert and Emma to be together!
“Emma, you don’t have to annul your engagement! Just take a rest here. I’ll deal with Robert’s disappearance right away!”
After finishing her words, Maisie left the hospital with a sullen face.
The butler of the villa called Maisie.
“Madam, some people from the company and the Simpson family have arrived here. They want to know what happened…”
Maisie looked sullen. The branches of the Simpson family only cared for their own benefits.
Now Robert was missing. They came for nothing but power and profit.
Being filled with anger, Maisie called Ivan.
After Ivan was taken away from the party of the Murphy family at night, he went to a nightclub to drink down his sorrow.
It was the middle of the night. Ivan asked some women to be with him.
But Ivan did not feel happy. He was getting depressed and nearly drunk.
His phone rang but he ignored it. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
He did not want to get in touch with anyone.
Maisie called Ivan more than ten times, but Ivan didn’t pick up the phone. She could only ask her driver to drive back home in a sulk.
In the Holland’s, Elliot was calling Jasper and Selena.
Robert was missing suddenly, and the Holland family was in a good relationship with the Simpson family, so they would like to help the Simpson family.
When Elliot went home at midnight, she found that Jasper and Selena hadn’t come home.
She called them but no one answered, which made her feel worried.
“Still can’t get through their phones?”
Jasper’s father, Charles Holland asked.
“No, neither of them. Is there something wrong with them?”
Elliot asked worriedly. Charles also became serious.
They were worried at this time when Robert was just missing.
“Don’t be panic. Jasper and Selena disappeared in the Murphy’s. Give a call to the Murphy family. Maybe Jasper is staying with Jason.”
After Charles suggested, Elliot called Jason at once.
Jason was checking the surveillance video in the Murphy’s. He took a look at the ringing phone and found that it was Jasper’s mother. He felt sorry and patted himself on the head.
Too many things happened tonight. And he forgot about Jasper.
Elliot must be worried for the disappearance of Jasper and Selena.
He picked up the phone and greeted Elliot politely.
“Hello, Auntie. This is Jason.”
Elliot asked directly.
“Where is Jasper? Is he being with you? And what about Selena? Did you see her?”
Jason could feel Elliot’s panic in her voice. He answered with a prepared story.
“Auntie, Jasper is drunk. He is sleeping in the guest room in the Murphy’s. Don’t worry. And Selena seems to go to the police to deal with something urgent.”
Knowing Jasper and Selena were safe, Elliot was relieved and soon felt angry.
“Why didn’t they call me and told me what’s going on? I’ve been worried about them nearly the whole night!”
Jason hurriedly comforted her.
“Well, Jasper is drunk so he couldn’t give you a call. It’s not his fault … and Selena lost her phone in the Murphy’s. It’s an accident! Auntie, it’s my fault. I should have told you about their situation, but Robert is missing and I’m busy finding him. So, I forgot to call you.”
“Alright, I got it. It’s not your fault. Tell Jasper to come back home early when he wakes up. As for Selena, you should spend more time with her. And if you like her, you two have better set an engagement date soon.”
Elliot hanged up.
Charles felt relieved when he knew Jasper and Selena were safe.
“Now that there is nothing wrong, you should take a rest. You’ve been staying up late for so long.”
Elliot was a bit unhappy, but she nodded finally.
“You are right. I’m tired. Let’s get some sleep and kick their asses tomorrow!”
After Jason hanged up the call from Elliot, he went and took a look at Jasper who was still in a coma.
Jasper was sleeping on the bed and did not know what happen at all.
Jason was worried about Selena, so he went to the hotel to see her.
When he opened Selena’s door, he found that Selena had fallen on the ground.
Jason went to Selena and patted on her head. Selena woke up gradually. Tears fell down her face when she saw Jason.
“Jason … Jason…”
Selena was sobbing and Jason didn’t know how to comfort her.
Although he did plan to marry Selena and had no problem with her, he felt he was in a mess after what happened tonight.
He did not know how to comfort Selena. He could only pat on her back to ease her anxiety.
After a long while, Jason said.
“Does Jasper know what happened tonight?”
Selena shook her head with a pale face.
“I don’t know … I don’t know … Jason, I fainted at that time. I didn’t know Jasper was there until I woke up.”
Selena cried and told Jason what happened at that time. Jason kept comforting her.
“It’s OK … I’m here. No one knows what happened today … Don’t be afraid…”
“But I’m afraid Jasper would know the truth … Jason … Could you help me sound out Jasper to see if he knows about it … if he doesn’t know, don’t tell him…”
Selena kept emphasizing it. Jason was a bit confused, but he nodded at once.
“Don’t worry … I won’t let him know. He will never know who the person was tonight. I will tell him that it was an accident. He was with other women…”
Selena felt a bit relieved.
“I’m sorry … Jason, I’m sorry…”
Selena kept saying sorry, but Jason could not figure out why she said sorry to him.
“There must be someone who used tricks. It’s not your fault. Don’t be afraid. You will be fine as long as no one knows the truth. I won’t say it out…”
Selena couldn’t stop crying.
“No, it’s not like that … Jason, it’s not like that. My mom said I would marry you. But now such things happen to me. I’m sorry, Jason. I’m sorry…”
Jason smiled.
“You silly girl. We haven’t married. You don’t need to apologize to me. I know it’s an accident. Don’t be afraid. I will protect you…”
In fact, he took Selena as his sister more than his lover.
He just did not resist the arrangement by the two families, but he never had a crush on Selena. Now he just felt sad for her as her brother.
Squatting on the floor, Selena was still crying. The scene where she found she was with Jasper when she woke up was all over her mind. It drove her crazy. It was like she was on the brink and almost broke down.
Jason kept comforting Selena.
When Selena calmed down, Jason asked her about the process of her suffering.
Jason had to figure out the truth of Jasper and Selena’s encounter and let the man on behind pay for what he had done.
Selena calmly described the scene for Jason.
They did not know someone was eavesdropping behind the door.
