NovelEnglishChapter 204 “Isn’t that Chad Ross?!” Stan exclaimed in surprise. “I thought he was in love with Whitney Cox, and he
looked like he could die after she went missing. He’s marrying someone else already?”
“I told you to watch him-you never noticed that he was going to get married?” Isaac asked icily
He had been anticipating reprisals from Chad because he drove Whitney presumably to her death, and
therefore told Stan to always keep an eye on his movements.
“But my boys are watching him,” Stan quickly argued. “He wasn’t doing much, and I don’t even
recognize that woman.”
Worried that Isaac would snap at him for failing in his responsibility, he quickly tried to change the
subject. “Hold on, sir. Don’t you think the bride looks just like Whitney Cox? Maybe it’s a rebound
relationship?”
Isaac was not interested in the bride, but he was surprised that Chad would marry another woman so
soon.
He certainly did not hold back from challenging Isaac just to protect Whitney, and there had to be actual

“Call off your guys. There’s no need to watch him now,” Isaac said flatly “Let’s go
Chad’s marriage was proof enough that he was over Whitney–Isaac therefore did not have to watch his
back for him now.
“Yeah,” Stan replied, and drove off.
Unbeknownst to them, the bride had been staring at their car the instant it arrived and stopped outside,
and was still watching as they drove into the distance.
The unrepressed spite in her eyes was certainly sinister.
“What are you looking at?” Chad asked just then.
“I saw Isaac Jefferson’s car,” the bride replied unhappily.
Chad patted her hand then. “It’s our happy day-we don’t have to get upset over him.”
The bride nodded in agreement. “Yeah”
Over at Jefferson Manor, Moneypenny hurried into Henry’s study, informing him, “I have done what you
asked, sir.”
Henry was satisfied with his performance–he had people tailing his butler after he asked him to find
leverage against Harvey Gooding, and Moneypenny did so without contacting Harvey.
“Good. Contact him now,” Henry said.
“Yes, sir.” Moneypenny replied, and left.
After he was gone, Henry called out, “Timmy.”
Timmy was his professional bodyguard, but was also adept at intelligence work.
“Leak news that Moneypenny was the one behind the abduction,” Henry said.
“Yes, sir. Right away, sir,” Timmy said and left.
Henry moved a black chess piece, checkmating the white side.
He leaked the news because he just wanted Harvey to know that Moneypenny had abducted his
mother.
If they were still in league with one another, that would drive a wedge between them.
Moreover, it was necessary to be wary of Moneypenny after his betrayal–he would have fired him if he
were younger.

However, he was now an old man and had become a little sentimental, a shadow of his ruthless self
during his younger days!
Meanwhile, Harvey was still busy looking for Irene, only to realize that another fire had just ignited in
his backyard
He almost jumped from sheer frustration when he got the call.
“Who is it?! Who has a death wish, kidnapping my mother?!” he demanded in frustration.
“We don’t know, sir…”
The answer left him even more frustrated, and he snapped, “Did I pay all of you to goof off?! Find
them!”
“Yes, sir.”
He flung his cellphone away the instant he hung up, and it shattered into pieces with a loud crack.
He had no idea who it was, when Isaac came to mind….
“Enrique!”
His assistant entered the room. “Yes, Mr. Gooding?”
“Get my chopper ready. I need to leave right away-” Before he could finish, the phone on his desk
started ringing.
