On the other side, after leaving the bank, Mason Monroe transferred the money directly to the external company.
The other party promised not to bother him anymore, so he wandered around nearby for a while, calculated the ti, and felt it was about right to return to the Hughes Family.
As soon as he entered the house, Mason Monroe saw Evan Hughes sitting on the sofa, drinking tea, staring at him with dark eyes.
Mason Monroe felt a "thump" in his heart, a sense of panic as if he had been seen through.
He tried to steady his mind, forced out a smile, and said, "Dad, why haven’t you gone to the company? Isn’t the company busy today?"
Evan Hughes looked deeply at Mason Monroe and said, "There’s nothing at the company today. The butler said you took the divorce agreent to see Coralie?"
Mason Monroe hurriedly nodded, "Yes."
Evan Hughes raised an eyebrow and asked, "Is Coralie feeling any better?"
Mason Monroe sighed and said regretfully, "She didn’t have any reaction; she must really be sick. But I believe with the doctor’s treatnt, she’ll get better soon. By the way, the doctor told today that during her treatnt, it’s best we don’t disturb her for now."
A thick fog gathered in Evan Hughes’ eyes but quickly dissipated.
He humd and said, "Then let’s not disturb the doctor’s treatnt for now. We’ll check again after so ti."
"Alright, Dad, I’ll go upstairs first. I’ve been on the car all day and feel a bit car sick. I’ll go rest in my room for a while."
Evan Hughes waved his hand without much expression and said, "Go ahead."
Mason Monroe, afraid of revealing anything amiss, didn’t dare to say much and went straight upstairs.
Evan Hughes watched Mason Monroe disappear around the staircase corner before withdrawing his gaze, his expression cold.
At this mont, the butler ca in from outside.
Lowering his voice, Evan Hughes asked, "Have you found out?"
The butler nodded, glanced in the direction upstairs to ensure Mason Monroe wouldn’t suddenly co down, and then spoke, "I’ve found out. Young Master Monroe didn’t go to the hospital; there are no visitation records there. Also, I heard from the attending doctor that when Young Master Monroe visited the young lady today, he asked the young lady for money."
"Asked for money?" Evan Hughes’ face darkened further.
The butler acknowledged with a nod and said, "The doctor said that before Young Master Monroe’s visit, the young lady’s emotions were quite stable. But after his visit, she was delirious again, and the doctor had to give her a sedative to calm her down."
"That scoundrel!" Evan Hughes slamd the armrest of his chair hard, making a loud "bang."
The butler was so scared he didn’t dare say a word.
Only when Evan Hughes spoke again did he say: "Keep a close eye on him! I want to see what this good-for-nothing plans to do with the money."
The butler asked puzzledly, "Why don’t you just kick him out? Just the matter with the check tells you everything you need to know about his character..."
"I need to know exactly what he’s up to before deciding how to deal with him."
The butler nodded, "Understood, sir. I’ll secretly install caras at ho to ensure he doesn’t stir up any trouble under our noses."
Holding his temples, Evan Hughes said, "Hmm, go ahead."
He initially gave Mason Monroe one last chance, but if the boy didn’t seize it, it was not his fault.
As evening approached, Mason Monroe watched from the window as Evan Hughes left, and he imdiately began to act.
He put on a sweatshirt with pockets and wandered around the villa.
About half an hour later, Mason Monroe left with a backpack.
Just as he was about to leave the villa’s gate, the butler’s voice sounded from behind, "Young Master Monroe, where are you going?"
