“Elisa, I found out some information about your father.”
Elisa was stunned for a moment. A tinge of disbelief flashed across her eyes. Then, the next moment,
she spoke.
“What did you manage to find?”
“I can’t tell you through the phone. It’s not very urgent, but it might do you some help. I’ll talk to you
when I get back, alright?”
Elisa’s eyes flickered with some hope. She did not know what to say, but she did not want to hang up
just like that.
Others might not know how important the information about her father was to her, but Will had been
observing her for quite some time, so he must know what she wanted.
Moreover, Will wasn’t someone who would waste time on meager issues. If he were to announce

Any evidence she could get hold of was of extreme importance to Elisa.
Elisa hesitated for a moment before speaking. “Did someone call you? Or did you manage to get hold
of any documents or information? Can you send it to me?”
Her tone was slightly pleading.
Will sighed gently. “The matter isn’t as simple as you think. Plus, I don’t know if it is credible. Give me a
few more days. I will contact you when I have confirmed its credibility.”
Elisa frowned. Although Will usually did not look serious, he was pretty reliable. He would not lie.
Although Elisa looked calm when handling matters about her father, her heart was in turmoil. She
dreamed of meeting her father almost every night. Every day upon waking up, she would have the
strong urge to avenge her father.
After a moment of hesitation, Elisa spoke. “Can you tell me briefly what it is about?”
Will did not refuse her this time. He spoke gently. “It is about a series of events when your father was in
charge of some projects. But I’ll have to validate its plausibility first.”
Elisa pursed her lips. She could not help but say in a gentle tone.
“Thank you so much.”
She owed Will a favor for this.
Elisa did not care about anything else. She would not let others manipulate her, but when it was about
her father…
Her father was her Achilles heel.
Elisa knew Will Darcey after associating with him for quite some time. Even if he might use her, he
knew his limits.
Elisa would do anything for him willingly if he proved to be a great help to her this time regarding her
father. He would not even need to try to take advantage of her.

“Mr. Darcey…”
Elisa frowned. But before she could continue, she heard Will chuckle softly. It was a sad and helpless
chuckle.
“I was joking. But if the information I provide is accurate, could you change how you address me then?”
Elisa’s expression changed. What does he mean?
But before she could speak, Will cut her.
“I do not want to hear you calling me Mr. Darcey or Sir anymore. Call me Will, okay?”
Elisa’s eyes flickered. It was not something tough to do. Finally, she answered, “Alright.”
Will smiled gently.
Anyone would be shocked to see him smile like that!
Although he had always looked friendly and was forever smiling, he was known to be cold and ruthless.
However, his eyes were full of tenderness now.
He spoke once more after a moment of hesitation.
