Francine frowned deeply. “See! I knew you guys weren’t monitoring her carefully enough!
And I could say the same for our family, too! We haven’t noticed any unusual goings-on at
Adam Group, and we haven’t heard anything about Sophia getting married or having a
child. I find it very suspicious that Sophia is deliberately concealing her marriage and her
children! Any normal woman would want the whole world to know that she’s married, but
Sophia is being incredibly secretive. Everything is being kept well under wraps! There is
something fishy here!”
Xante had to tread carefully regarding that situation. “If Sophia intends to hide it, then
why bring the child back to the country at such a time? And why would she let Corinne see
her? It’s quite a contradiction, don’t you think?”
Francine replied, “How should I know? I came to you to ask for help! You must find out
what Sophia has been up to after returning to the country. We need information about her
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthusband and children, preferably including photos and detailed profiles! I don’t want to
bring needless stress to my family for now. My grandparents are old, and they won’t be
able to handle all this information.”
Xante nodded reassuringly. “I assure you that I’ll assign someone to investigate this. You’ll
be swiftly informed of any developments.”
Francine exclaimed uneasily, “If your investigation brings up bad news, then it’s best to
keep it from Corinne. I highly suspect that the child Sophia is holding is the first child that
Corinne gave birth to. However, Corinne is as yet still unaware that she delivered triplets.
If we can’t locate the child, I hope she’ll never learn the truth about them.”
Xante adjusted her gold-rimmed spectacles and said, “Rest assured, we’re even more
concerned about our boss’s feelings than you are.”
Francine felt somewhat relieved and said, “That’s good to know. Please start the
investigation as soon as possible. Now that Sophia is in the country, we have a better
chance of keeping her under control. We’ve waited for a long time for this opportunity.”
Xante nodded and agreed, “I understand.”
After expressing her gratitude to Xante, Francine made her way to the door. She was
worried about Corinne, as the encounter with Sophia might have stirred up some
uncomfortable memories. She wanted to be there to comfort Corinne and help her avoid
all those messy thoughts.
At the same time, she hoped that Xante would be able to uncover some clues. Francine
had always believed that Sophia had locked Jeremy up somehow, but she could not wrap
her head around how someone like Jeremy would end up in such a situation.
‘What happened back then? Why did my brother end up in a wheelchair? Why had they
both disappeared after Tommy escorted him to the airport?’ Those were some of the
questions in Francine’s mind. Neither Jeremy nor Sophia boarded the plane, yet the plane
coincidentally had an accident. The connection between all those events was simply

During the past three years, the Holdens, the Riveras, as well as Xante and Aaron, kept
tabs on the Adam Group and Sophia. Alas, nothing unusual had been discovered. Adam
wielded immense power in Molomia, making it difficult for these parties to operate
effectively. They often encountered resistance from Adam’s associates and were at risk of
being discovered.
With Sophia returning to the country, they needed to find some leads. After all, Francine
had a gut feeling that her brother was still alive.
As Francine approached the door, someone opened it from the outside. It was Aaron, who
looked rather surprised to see her. “Miss Francine, what brings you here?”
Francine replied with a serious expression, “I’ve explained everything to Miss Xante, so
you can ask her to tell you what I said. I hope your side can make a quick investigation
and prevent her from escaping again!” she said, leaving in a hurry.
Aaron muttered to himself in bewilderment, “Let who escape?”
