She was most likely Tory's mother.
Chelsea smiled a slightly bitter smile.
"I'm indeed his mother. A mother he refuses to accept. | understand where he's coming from and accept it
willingly. No mother should bring her own child humiliation if she can't bring him glory. I'm not worthy to be his
mother."
| frowned, finding her statement somewhat disagreeable.
"Chelsea, if your child causes trouble out there and brings all sorts of problems to you, will you hate him and
refuse to accept him because of that?"
She shook her head. "Why would 1?"
| smiled slightly. "It's the sconcept.
Tory won't refuse to accept you just because you can't bring him glory. There's no one in the world who doesn't
thirst for the love of one's family. Many times, a hug is all that's needed between family members to solve
conflicts.”

Chelsea did not say a word for a very long tand looked ahead in a daze, lost in thoughts.
After a long time, she said with a smile," Your words make sense, but this isn't the only reason why Tory resents
me. Tellabout your problems. Let's see if | can be of any help."
Since she refused to share more about her and Tory, | did not ask any more questions either.
| looked at the clear and crystal water in the pool and sighed. "I'm waiting for news right now before deciding my
next course
of action.
Seeing that | refused to share more, Chelsea merely smiled.
At this moment, my phone lit up. It was a call from Solomon.
I answered it in a hurry and asked in a panic, "How's your investigation, Mr. Cook?"
Solomon was at a place that was a little noisy. "We have sclues. There's an abandoned factory on the
outskirts of the city under Fredericks Corporation. Due to sserious safety hazards, it was ordered to be
rectified half a year ago but was never rectified. Hence, it becabandoned. However, people have been
frequenting this factory lately, and there are a lot of bodyguards guarding outside. Our men can't go too close as
we're not sure about the specific details, but my guess is that Mr. Grant is most likely in this factory.
After hearing what he said, my eyes lit up.' Sendthe address, Mr. Cook. I'll ask Tory to think of a way. Maybe
he knows how to sneak in."
"Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Solomon sentthe address via text.
| got up and said to Chelsea, "I'm sorry, | can't keep you company anymore, Chelsea.
| need to go."
Chelsea smiled slightly. "Go ahead and do your things. Don't worry about me."
After returning to the villa, | went up to the second floor and cto Tory's room door.
| was just about to lift my hand and knock on the door when | realized that the door was not closed.

| was worried about Theo, so | pushed the door in without thinking. "Tory, Mr. Cook cback with news. Theo
seems to be in an abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city."
| was stunned as soon as | finished my sentence.
Tory was only wearing a pair of boxers. His expression sank. He stared atand sinisterly said, "Don't you know
that you should knock first before entering the door? You didn't graduate from elementary school, did you?"
"I'm sorry."
| quickly turned around. "I was about to knock but | realized your door wasn't closed, so | pushed the door and
cin because | was too anxious.
"There's an abandoned factory in the outskirts of the city under Fredericks Corporation. Mr. Cook said that Theo
could be locked in this factory. Do you know a way to send someone inside to investigate it?" "I'll do my best."
His cold and indifferent voice rang out behind me. "I'll go and take a look at it myself. If | send my subordinates,
then we might startle the enemy."
"Okay, thanks for the help."
When Tory was done dressing up, he walked out the room door.
| followed him downstairs to the entrance of the villa when he stopped in his tracks and turned around to look at «
