Flash Marriage: She becomes Mrs. CEO after the Failed Dowry Talk Chapter 943: You’ve Hidden Yourselves Well, Mother and Daugh
"Ding——"
This was the third ti the doorbell rang before the apartnt door was leisurely opened from the inside.
The person who ca to open the door appeared to be in their forties, wearing a scarf in front.
Jasper Sinclair thought there might have been a mistake with the address and frowned slightly; the reaction of Louis Hayes in front of him was the sa.
"Sir, may I ask who you are looking for?" the middle-aged woman at the door asked them.
Louis was about to say they had the wrong door when he heard a baby crying inside.
Jasper quickly took over before his assistant could speak: "We are looking for Rachel Woodward."
Upon hearing the na of the hostess, the woman’s expression imdiately beca cautious.
"Miss Woodward is not here." With that, the woman made a gesture to close the door.
Louis reacted quickly, swiftly extending his arm to block it; how could the woman compete with the strength of a young man?
Without saying a word, Jasper barged in, his gaze imdiately locking onto the baby in the cradle.
The woman followed them in, shouting, "I’m going to call the police to have you arrested for trespassing!"
"Perfect, Rachel Woodward has been up to sothing improper, thank you for calling the police for us."
The woman, who hadn’t experienced much turmoil, was caught between the employer who paid her and the imposing man; she was flustered.
Jasper had serious business to attend to and had no ti to waste on the woman, nor was it necessary to make things difficult for her.
He said to her, "Call Rachel Woodward and tell her that Mr. Sinclair is at her apartnt waiting for her, and don’t say anything else."
Worried that the woman might say sothing inappropriate and ruin the boss’s plan, Louis added just before the number was dialed: "If you speak out of turn, be careful, your tongue might get cut off."
The woman was so frightened by this that she shivered, nearly losing her grip on the phone.
"Make the call, turn on the speakerphone."
Rachel Woodward picked up quickly but her tone was unfriendly, impatiently asking the woman what was happening.
"A guest has co to the house, his surna is Sinclair, waiting for you to co back."
After saying this, the woman hung up.
Louis said to her, "Your tongue is safe for now."
Rachel called back, but Louis imdiately hung up.
The woman, right under their watchful eyes, dared not make a move. Louis asked Jasper, "Is there anything else you need to do?"
Jasper initially wanted him to search around to see if any useful clues could be found.
On second thought, trespassing was already unethical enough, there was no need to do anything further.
Both of them sat in the living room waiting; the apartnt was not even as large as Jasper’s executive office, which made him quite disdainful.
While waiting, Jasper exchanged a few words with the woman, asking, "Are you the nanny Rachel Woodward hired to take care of the child?"
"Yes, I occasionally help with so housework."
"Where is the child’s father?"
Upon hearing this, the woman hesitantly replied, "Miss Woodward doesn’t allow anyone to ntion the child’s father."
Jasper understood; it seed that person had caused trouble and then simply left.
"Has anyone else visited this house?"
"No, Miss Woodward never brings anyone ho."
After a few questions, Jasper realized that the woman knew almost nothing about Rachel Woodward’s personal life.
He fell silent, not asking more, though his throat felt dry, uncomfortable, and a bit itchy.
Rachel Woodward ca back half an hour later. Jasper’s first words upon seeing her were filled with irony: "You’ve been hiding here with the child very well."
