Craig Landers returned to the villa.
The house was empty.
"Where is the madam?"
Craig Landers asked the servant with a cold face.
"The madam has gone out and hasn’t co back yet."
The servant answered truthfully.
Gone out and hasn’t co back yet?
Is it because she signed the divorce agreent, so she doesn’t plan to co back?
Could it be that she really wants to be with Nick Hook?
Craig Landers’ face was cold as ice, and he closed his eyes, trying hard to calm his emotions.
On the drive back, his mood had gradually cald, and he had thought about many things.
What happened yesterday indeed dealt him a heavy blow, but he wasn’t irrational.
Leia Quinn wasn’t the type of woman who was fickle and amorous.
If she wanted to be with Nick Hook, she wouldn’t have needed to marry him.
Since she married him, why would she cheat with Nick Hook again, like yesterday, and be spied on by others? What’s the point?
Would she want others to point fingers at her?
Only a fool would do that!
So, she must have been set up yesterday!
Who would set her up?
Craig Landers pressed his thin lips tightly, thought for a mont, and took out his phone to call Nick Hook.
He wanted to find out the truth first.
Leia Quinn’s phone was turned off, could she have gone to find Nick Hook?
"Sorry, the phone you dialed is turned off."
Turned off!
Nick Hook’s phone was turned off too!
Craig Landers’ face darkened a few shades.
Both of them turning off their phones made his thoughts run wild again.
He hadn’t been with Leia Quinn for long, did he really understand her that well?
Could it be that she really fell for Nick Hook and couldn’t resist the temptation...
Craig Landers closed his eyes, suppressing the anxiety in his heart.
Right now, he didn’t want to know anything, he just wanted to know where Leia Quinn had gone!
He wanted to confront her face to face!
Craig Landers opened his eyes and dialed Elara Don’s number.
Leia Quinn and Elara Don are best friends, she would definitely tell Elara where she went.
"Hello? Mr. Landers?"
Elara Don’s slightly surprised voice ca through the line.
Craig Landers maintained his composure, asking, "Elly, has Kiki contacted you today?"
"No! Why?" Elara Don asked.
No contact?
Craig Landers felt a tightening in his chest, "Then did she contact you last night?"
"No! Mr. Landers, what happened? Did you and Kiki have a fight?"
Elara Don hurriedly asked.
Craig Landers didn’t know how to respond. After a mont, he said, "Sothing happened. Elly, if she contacts you, please let know imdiately."
She hadn’t even contacted Elara Don, so where had she gone now?
Does she really plan to divorce him and never see each other again?
On the other end of the phone, Elara Don looked at the disconnected call and blinked.
Leia Quinn must have had a fight with Craig Landers.
Otherwise, Craig Landers wouldn’t have called her.
Could Leia Quinn be missing?
Elara Don hurriedly dialed Leia Quinn’s number.
Her phone was turned off!
What’s going on here?
Elara Don was surprised, frowning with concentration.
After a long while, she sent Craig Landers a ssage.
"Tell , what happened between you and Kiki? Why is her phone turned off?"
Sothing serious must have happened!
Otherwise, Kiki wouldn’t be turning off her phone.
Nor would Landers be coming to her.
"Yesterday, we attended the Hook Family patriarch’s birthday banquet..."
Craig Landers briefly explained the situation.
Elara Don was shocked.
Leia Quinn had an encounter with Nick Hook!
How could this happen!
"Kiki must have been frad! Mr. Landers, you need to find out who frad her!"
Leia Quinn doesn’t even like Nick Hook.
Before they got married, she had always avoided him.
Now that they’re married, it’s even more unlikely for her to have any excess contact with him.
Sothing is definitely fishy here!
Soone must be framing her!
Who could it be?
An image flashed in Elara Don’s mind, and she quickly sent a ssage, "Go ask Yuna Wynne what she’s been up to yesterday."
Could it be Yuna Wynne who’s at odds with Leia Quinn?
It doesn’t make sense either.
After all, she likes Nick Hook. Even if she wanted to sche against Leia, she wouldn’t let Nick and Leia have an encounter, right?
Elara Don was frantic with worry, wishing she could imdiately fly back to Sea City to find Leia Quinn.
On the phone, Craig Landers sent a simple "okay" in response.
Elara Don pressed her lips together, saying, "Mr. Landers, Kiki has a strong sense of pride. She ntioned divorce because she didn’t want to embarrass you; do what you think is best."
Craig Landers said Leia left a ssage ntioning divorce.
She knows, Leia Quinn must feel guilty and doesn’t want Craig Landers to lose face, which is why she is saying she wants a divorce.
Who knows what Craig Landers will choose.
But she also knows, even if they don’t divorce, this incident will certainly create a rift between them.
How did things end up like this?
Elara Don was a bit distracted all afternoon.
She kept dialing Leia Quinn’s number from ti to ti, but Leia’s phone remained off.
She was anxious and constantly reassuring herself internally.
Leia Quinn probably just wants so peace and quiet!
If it were her, she wouldn’t want anyone bothering her at this ti either.
Beep, a ssage ca in on her phone.
Elara Don perked up with delight, quickly checking, thinking it was from Leia Quinn.
But disappointingly, the ssage wasn’t from Leia, but Helen.
"Charlotte, I’ve made up my mind, I’ll help you big ti."
Helen wants to help her big ti?
Is she referring to the Cole Hawke matter?
Elara Don blinked, typing a line, "Did you find a woman willing to help?"
She wanted to set up a honeytrap, having Helen find a woman for her.
Helen said she would think about it, so now, has she found soone?
"No need to find soone, I’ll handle it myself!"
Elara Don: "..."
What did she say?
She’ll handle it herself?
No way!
"Helen, don’t joke around. I need the real deal; I don’t want you to sacrifice yourself for !"
She isn’t trying to half-heartedly set up Cole Hawke.
She wants to leave evidence!
This is Country F. It’s best if she can find a local woman who does such things, so she can have so peace of mind.
Helen handling it herself, what an international joke!
"I’m not joking, nor am I doing it for you. I’m not getting any younger, and my family is constantly urging to marry, even forcing to marry a foreigner. I don’t like the sll of foreigners; might as well let this kid benefit!"
Helen sent another ssage.
Elara Don stared at the ssage, caught between laughter and tears.
"Helen, are you sure about this? You’ve never t Cole Hawke, don’t even know him well, what if he isn’t your type?"
"Who says I haven’t t him? Isn’t he that scoundrel?"
Huh?
Helen has t Cole Hawke?
This little lady has secrets!
Elara Don’s eyes widened, filled with intense curiosity.
"Helen, have you known Cole Hawke for a while?"
She hadn’t realized before, but now thinking back, the first ti she ntioned Cole Hawke, Helen said she knew he was once fat and even agreed with her that Cole Hawke is a scoundrel.
The two must have known each other previously.
"Yes, it’s that damn fate!"
Pfft!
Elara Don was amused, planning to thoroughly grill her tonight.
Just then, her colleagues’ exclamations reached her ears.
"Look quickly, there’s a handso guy downstairs holding a bouquet of flowers, he’s so handso."
