Chapter 1530: Chapter 1533: Mother-in-law finds son-in-law more likable the more she sees him (Add 1 more)
“Madam, it’s also possible that Monica has been taken away. Our people have thoroughly searched the club inside out. Since they confird there’s no trace of Monica, it’s likely she has been sent away in advance. After all…”
The subordinate, looking at Sylvia Scott’s increasingly cold face, timidly said, “After all, this way… it can avoid the young lady and prevent her from finding out.”
It has to be said that this subordinate inadvertently spoke the truth.
Aidan Lucas indeed had Monica taken away in advance.
However, she was not hidden away for romantic reasons, but for severe interrogation.
“Are you suggesting that Aidan Lucas has taken a fancy to Monica and wants to keep her hidden for himself?” Sylvia Scott glanced at the subordinate in the front seat, her eyes slightly narrowing.
“This, this isn’t impossible…” Feeling the sharpness in Madam’s eyes, the subordinate shrank his neck.
“…Forget it. Since Aidan Lucas has taken the bait, I’ll just wait for Monica’s response. Let’s drive, we’re going back.”
Sylvia Scott turned her head to look out the car window, discontinuing the previous topic.
The deep blue Rolls-Royce steadily made its way back.
Resting her head on her hand, she gazed at the swiftly passing night scenery outside the window, her thoughts drifting far away, back to the auction that just took place.
Once, that deeply hurtful, biased father.
In her view, bound by filial piety, a man that she seemingly could never truly retaliate against, collapsed embarrassingly on the auction stage.
His trousers were completely stripped down, unveiling the most unbearable and shaful side.
Sylvia Scott admitted that at that mont, she was truly grateful to Aidan Lucas from the bottom of her heart.
Aidan Lucas, this ‘son-in-law’, was better than she had imagined.
Whether it was his background, status, appearance, or charm, he was worthy of her Lily.
He even avenged an old grudge for her, handling the Deadbeat Father Smith she could never deal with.
But—
Thinking of the missing Monica, Sylvia Scott’s temples throbbed.
If such a good son-in-law truly betrayed her daughter,
no matter how good his other qualities were, she would not let her daughter marry him.
Sylvia Scott was lost in thought, staring out the car window, when Duke’s call suddenly ca.
“Honey, how is it… did the guy who kidnapped our baby take the bait? Is he loyal to our baby?”
“If he dares to be disloyal, I, the Duke, will personally break his neck. Oh, no, it’s better to be romantic… If he is unfaithful, we can coax our baby back ho, I don’t want to give our baby to him.”
Sylvia Scott had not yet spoken when Duke’s voice jumped out from the other end of the phone.
He talked to himself, seemingly very anxious, lacking his usual calm and steadiness.
“Slow down… You’re asking so much at once, how am I supposed to respond?” Sylvia Scott had long known what her husband was like.
Outwardly strong and iron-willed, but returning ho he almost turned into a dad devotedly doting on his twenty-four filial piety.
“Honey, don’t be mad, I was too anxious. Take your ti, there’s no rush, slowly tell .”
Ken Redington, afraid his wife might get upset, imdiately cooed softly.
Ever since Sylvia Scott married Ken Redington, he had treasured and protected her, and upon hearing Duke’s deep, gentle voice, her slightly furrowed brow gradually relaxed.
She rubbed her temples and said, “Ken, to tell you the truth, I’m also very upset right now.”
Aidan Lucas is a very good man, unexpectedly so.
But… thinking of Monica, Sylvia Scott almost wished she hadn’t sent Monica to test Aidan Lucas.
“Sweetheart, don’t be upset, we won’t be upset.” Hearing that his beloved wife was troubled, Redington wished he could appear right in front of Sylvia Scott.
“Take your ti and tell everything, your husband is here, I will make decisions for you.”
