Became A Queen After divorce

Although it was the father’s idea to secretly intercept the little boy, he had specifically instructed that it be done discreetly, without anyone knowing, especially Pearl.

Now, the whole city was in an uproar, and everyone probably knew about it.

Her father called her over at that moment, and she knew she was in for a scolding.

Thinking of this, Libby grabbed her subordinate by the collar and asked through gritted teeth, “What did you say? Didn’t I tell you to do it secretly? How did it turn out like this?”

The man stammered in fear, “Dax couldn’t hold back and fired a shot.”

“Useless! Get out of my sight! Go back and tell the master that I’ll be there soon.”

“Yes.”

Libby had to go to Declan herself, which meant she couldn’t handle things at Hotspring Resort.

As she was pondering what to do, Camilla volunteered, “Why don’t I help you, Miss Libby? I’ll go check on Hotspring Resort.”

After all, it was just about leading the reporters there. How hard could it be?

Besides, the madam at the resort was one of Miss Libby’s people.

Camilla believed this task was a sure thing with no risks involved. She could also gain favor with Miss Libby, which might help her in the future.

“Well…”

Libby was a bit uneasy about letting Miss Callahan go. What use could a pretty face be?

But at the moment, she was indeed the best choice.

“Then I’ll trouble you this time, Miss Callahan. I will remember this favor.”

This was exactly what Camilla wanted to hear. She stood up from the sofa immediately.

“We’re all in the same boat. Helping you is helping myself. No need to be polite.”

“Alright, I’ll send two men to escort you.”

As they left Gilliam Mansion, their figures were caught by a pair of cold deep-set eyes.

Sam sat in the driver’s seat, calmly watching Miss Libby and the Jostrana woman leave in different directions.

He didn’t hesitate and chose to follow Camilla.

Just fifteen minutes earlier, he had orchestrated a scandal involving the Gilliam family.

Declan would surely seek out Libby to question her responsibility first.

So, wherever she was headed must be where Declan was.

As for Camilla, she and Miss Libby had conspired together. Now they were leaving Gilliam Mansion in different directions. There must be something fishy going on.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

“Let’s follow and see.”

Soon, Sam saw Camilla enter Hotspring Resort.

Although he was a man of integrity, it didn’t mean he didn’t know what kind of place this was.

If Camilla came here alone, she was either cheating on Declan or hiding some secret.

To find out more, Sam frowned and stepped into this den of vice.

Gold had already received instructions from Miss Libby that a Jostrana woman named “Camilla” would come to handle things.

From afar, Gold saw Camilla in her designer clothes and seductive posture.

She assumed this must be the “Jostrana woman” Miss Libby mentioned and approached with a smile.

“Hello, are you Miss Camilla?”

Camilla crossed her arms and nodded arrogantly. “Yes, call me Miss Camilla.”

For Miss Libby’s sake, Gold didn’t argue and quickly changed her address.

“Miss Camilla, we have found fifteen reporters covering all major newspapers in Zheemond.”

“Good. Where are Miss Pearl and Lord Parker?”

The main actors hadn’t appeared yet; how could she watch the show?

Gold replied, “They’re in a private room on the third floor. Miss Pearl just went in less than two minutes ago. She probably hasn’t even taken off her clothes yet. Let’s wait a bit.”

“Hmm.” Camilla wasn’t very satisfied with this answer but thought a few minutes wouldn’t matter much.

Meanwhile, Sam, who overheard their conversation, was caught in a dilemma.

He hadn’t expected Pearl to be here and fall into Lord Parker’s hands.

On one hand, she was the daughter of his father’s killer. If something happened to Pearl, Declan would be thrown into chaos. It would be good for him not to intervene.

On the other hand, he always found that woman annoying. Letting her suffer might be a good thing.

As he turned to leave, Sam felt his steps grow heavier.

“But… Sasha is still with her. What if that foolish woman brought Sasha here too?”

An evil voice in his mind told him: She’s not your biological daughter; she’s just a hostage!

Another voice, Pearl’s voice, echoed: Although Sasha isn’t your daughter, she calls you Uncle Sam. Can you bear it?

Hesitant and indecisive, Sam stood there for a long time with a gloomy expression.

Finally, he moved-heading toward the third floor!

“I’ll just take a look.”

He wasn’t doing it for Pearl; he was just worried about Sasha’s safety. That’s all! Sam convinced himself.

On the third floor, in a luxurious private room.

Lord Parker finally saw Pearl again. Ever since their last encounter, he couldn’t forget her.

The initial fondness had turned into a strange chemical reaction after being hurt by her.

Now he both loved and hated Pearl. Under this complex emotion, Lord Parker twistedly wanted to kill her.

Only then could he express his intense love, right?

Looking around and not seeing Ruth, Pearl anxiously looked at Lord Parker.

She questioned him, “Where’s Ruth? Where did you hide her?”

The message she received earlier was indeed from Ruth, but upon entering the room, she only saw Lord Parker and his cronies.

The man sat leisurely on a red leather sofa with his legs crossed.

“Pearl, long time no see. I’ve been going crazy thinking about you.”

“Why do you ask about others as soon as we meet? Come, why don’t you sit down and have a drink first?”

As he spoke, Lord Parker poured her a glass of wine himself.

In the goblet, the red wine looked like blood with an eerie red hue. Under the light, pink bubbles formed at the rim of the glass, exuding an aura of mystery and danger.
