Chapter 746
The nanny led Quinn, and her steps were mechanical as she followed behind the nanny out of the living room. She moved cautiously, fearing that the child might slip from her hands. Once they had left, Kaitlyn broke the silence, asking, "Alexander, did you investigate the issue I brought up before?"
Alexander casually sat on the sofa, crossed his legs, and replied indifferently, "No."
Kaitlyn asked, "Why didn't you check? Wayne has been missing for half a month."
"What does that have to do with me?" Alexander retorted.
Kaitlyn retorted irritably, "That's your father. Besides, what if he takes the money and runs off with another woman?"
Alexander lit a cigarette, his expression a mix of amusement and skepticism as he replied, "How much money could he possibly have?"
Kaitlyn said, "Who knows? Probably a lot."
With the cigarette between his fingers, Alexander stared into the distance, lost in thought.
Kaitlyn pressed again, "Won't you say something?"
Coming back to his senses, Alexander looked at her quietly, absorbing the unease written all over Kaitlyn's face.
A faint, mocking smile curled his lips. "Wouldn't that be perfect?"
Kaitlyn asked, "What?"
Alexander explained, "I mean if he never comes back, you would be the head of the Kennedys family. What do you need him for?"
Kaitlyn was momentarily taken aback, her heart slightly stirred. She then considered, "But if everyone finds out he ran off with another woman, I'd be a laughingstock as the lady of the house." Alexander asked, "And how do you know he ran off with another woman? What if..."

He gazed at Kaitlyn, his eyes so chilling they made her heart race. He said, "What if he's dead?"
His voice was soft, yet it sent shivers down Kaitlyn's spine.
Kaitlyn's complexion turned noticeably paler. She stared at Alexander in alarm, her voice dropping to a hushed tone, "Are you out of your mind? He's your dad!"
Alexander sneered. "Do you think he ever treated me like his son?"
Kaitlyn suddenly found herself at a loss for words. Wayne's recent actions had also infuriated her.
Alexander said, "What a pity."
Kaitlyn asked, "What do you mean a pity?"

Alexander leaned back a bit, his voice casual as he said, "Sadly, all his shares have fallen into the hands of Landon Kennedy."Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
The more Kaitlyn listened, the more uneasy she felt. She had to scrutinize her son more closely.
After a moment, she hesitantly asked, "Do you know where he is?"
Alexander lit another cigarette, taking his time to exhale the smoke. After a long pause, he said, "How would I know? Maybe we should call the police. It's not normal for him to be missing for so many days." Kaitlyn's eyebrows slowly furrowed. "Do we really need to call the police?"
What she implied was whether Alexander was involved in Wayne's disappearance.
Would Alexander be implicated if they reported it?
Pretending to misunderstand her implied question, Alexander responded, "What else can we do? He's been missing for days. If we don't do something, that's what will lead to a gossip."
