A Night's Mistake: The Besotted CEO's Obsession

Chapter 297

Hunk deeply admired Anthony. Under the cover of night, he quietly disposed of those corpses in Shawn’s yard.

Meanwhile, Shawn and Zachary were sitting on the couch in the living room, looking serious. Zachary asked, “Dad, it’s been so long since Anthony caught our men. Will he find out anything?”

Zachary was very worried. Even though many of these folks were not in the core team, they were nonetheless involved. If they revealed anything. Anthony would track them down too. Given his cruel character, they would be in for a tough time.

Hearing his son’s words, Shawn was calm. “Don’t worry. They can’t find out anything”

Having committed numerous illegal acts over the past two years, he naturally knew how to salence these people. Shawn then explained how to

control them

Zachary listened and gave a thumbs–up admiringly. “Dad, that’s a good move. So what should we do next?”

“Of course, now that Anthony’s been handed the position of head of the family, we’ll need to find a way to bring him down, Shawn said, tapping the table with his right hand, looking menacing,

“Do you have an idea? Zachary was intrigued

Shawn said confidently. “It’s just like before, Anthony is a tough out to crack, but now he’s revealing his weaknesses to us. We just need to deal with that woman and disrupt him. I believe if anything happens to her again, he’ll crumble.

Then, Shawn patted Zachary on the shoulder. “When the time comes, as the eldest grandson of the Clara family, the position of head of the family will naturally be yours. Lewis won’t stand a chance,”

The more Zachary listened, the more excited he became. It was as if he had already begun to taste the power of being the head of the family.

“Ah!” Suddenly, a servant screamed in the backyard. Others heard the noise and ran over

“Ah! There were a few more screams. Everyone ran into the living room in fear.

“What’s going on?” Shawn frowned and asked in a deep voice. “It’s not proper to scream like this at home,”

Karina Clara, Shawn’s wife, came in from the yard with a solemn expression, “A few corpies suddenly appeared in the backyard.

Karina was Shawn’s second wife, one year younger than Zachary. She used to work in the nightclub and was mentally strong.

Hearing this, Shawn was shocked. He got up and walked to the backyard. Zachary followed behind.

When they came to the backyard, they saw several bodies lying in the yard. The men looked like they had been dead for a while, their faces sporting a grayish hue.

Shawn and Zachary recognized immediately that these were the men captured by Anthony.

Seeing this scene, Zachary grew concerned. He approached Shawn from behind and asked with a serious expression, “Dad, how did he manage to bring all these people here without anyone noticing? Does their presence mean he already knows something?”

Shawn felt his temples throbbing. He thought, ‘How dare he throw the body into my yard? Did he find something? Looks like we can’t wait any Jonger

He ordered, “Send someone to dispose of the bodies first so as not to make a scene.”

“Okay, Zachary responded.

“Then, find someone you trust to deliver a letter to Ms. Davis, Shawn s

“Okay” Zachary immediately understood Shawn’s intention.

a said again.

The next day, Anthony worked in his study. Meanwhile, Isabella was reading in the living room as usual, with Fido sitting beside her. Suddenly, a letter came through the window.

Baffled, Tabella picked it up and opened it. Inside was a photo.

The Davis residence in the photo appeared undamaged, with a hand holding a torch visible at the edge. At the back of the photo was a printout that reach (If you want to know the details, come alone.] NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Underneath was an address,

Isabella stared at the photo, her fingers twisting together as her body trembled with anger. She thought. They don’t feel guilty at all about taking the lives of so many in the Davis family. Come alone! Do they think I’m stupid?

Isabella calmed down and walked upstairs to the study. Since Isabella had been living here, Anthony had been working in the study these days, and the door of the study had always been left ajar. Isabella knocked on the door gently.

Hearing the voice, Anthony’s cold eyes softened. “Come in.”

Isabella went into the study and put the photo on the table. “Who do you think it is?”

Anthony held the photo in his hand, scrutinized it briefly, and then put it aside. “Don’t go. I will investigate it”

Isabella shook her head and said, “This is a matter concerning the Davis family. I can’t ignore it. These people are cautious. If you go, they won’t show up. You’ve tested them these days”

Isabella sat down across from Anthony, took the photo in her hand, and continued, “Since they secretly gave this to me, I guess they have lost their cool. Im may be the only way they’ll let their guard down.”

“No, it’s too dangerous Anthony didn’t want Isabella to be in danger again.

Usually, Isabella would timidly avoid disobeying Anthony’s decisions. But now, faced with the enormity of the lives lost in the Davis family, she couldn’t back down. She said firmly, I didn’t give you the photos so that I can hide behind you. I understand their intentions, so let me go and draw them out. You can follow me and ensure my safety, so I won’t be in danger.

“I can’t risk your safety: Anthony said, looking up at the girl’s face. He saw that the usually timid girl was now filled with determination.

Isabella responded, “Anthony, I came back to find out the truth about the fire in the Davis residence. I don’t want to wait any longer, I must go. Anthony fell silent. He knew Isabella’s character well. She

was typically timid, but incredibly stubborn when it came to her family.

The two locked eyes for a long time, and finally, Anthony compromised. He thought for a moment and said, “Okay. I’ll protect you behind back”

Anthony set up an ambush at the designated location ahead of time.

your

At the agreed–upon time, Anthony instructed Hunk to get a motorcycle. Disguising himself, Anthony followed Isabella’s taxi at a discreet distance. When Isabella arrived, she discovered the meeting place was at the night market. Isabella was uncertain about the other party’s intentions in choosing such a busy place for the meeting.

She approached a stall selling tacos. The owner, a middle–aged man in his forties, looked up as Isabella approached cautiously and handed him the photo. “Are you the one who asked me to come?”

The man kept staring at Isabella’s lips and gesturing. It turned out that the man was deaf–mute. He took out a piece of paper on which the route had already been drawn
