Chapter 267
Thelma stomped on the gas pedal, the engine roaning to life, before she sped off in a flurry of dust.
Chuck jogged after her for a few steps, only to get drenched when she deliberately ran over a puddle.
Chuck was livid, “What nervel Doesn’t she know who Mr. Winston is?”
Frederick watched the receding cloud of dust left by the Mercedes, his sharp gaze hardened. He made a quick
decision, “Get in the car, we’re following her”
“Right away, Mr Winston!”
Chuck quickly discarded his muddy coat into a nearby trashcan before hopping into the passenger seat, keeping a
safe distance behind the lower–end Mercedes Brightwater Cove was not a large village. After only a few minutes,
they saw Thelma’s car pull up to a luxurious two–story mansion.
As they watched Thelma exit her car and saunter into the yard, completely at ease, it was clear that the mansion
was her home.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChuck, still fuming from the puddle incident, parked the car under a tree outside the yard He was about to get out
when he saw that Fredenck remained unmoved Frederick studied the mansion with a sharp gaze, remaining silent.
Chuck settled back into his seat, confused, “Mr Winston, aren’t you getting out?”
Fredenck’s calm, deep voice replied, “Do you think she will see you if you barge in like this?”
Oh..
Probably not!
So Chuck was planning to just storm in. But judging by Mr Winston’s words, that didn’t seem to be the plan.
Chuck was at a loss, ‘Mr. Winston, do you have a better idea?”
Frederick squinted slightly, his gaze sweeping over the Mercedes and the mansion
“How can a midwife afford a Mercedes and a two–story beautiful mansion? As we drove through the village, her
house was the most extravagant” “Mr. Winston, are you saying?”
“She’s been bought out. If we want her to talk, we need to offer more”
Fredenck’s conclusion was followed by a decisive order, “Go to the nearest bank and transfer five million to a new
card”
There was a bank at the entrance of Brightwater Cove. Chuck quickly followed Frederick’s instructions, creating a
new card and transfering five million into it
When they returned to Thelma’s front yard, Chuck was gripping the heavy bank card, his posture noticeably
confident
Frederick pressed the doorbell with his distinct, knuckled finger They heard Thelma’s voice from inside. I’m done for
the day! No more delivenes! Go to the clinic Frederick remained silent, pressing the doorbell again.
Thelma was clearly getting impatient, “Who is it? Stop ringing! I’m coming!”
She hurriedly opened the door, her face falling when she saw Frederick and Chuck, “You again? Leave
Suddenly, she stopped mid–sentence
Because she saw the card in Chuck’s hand her favorite thing?
Her eyes filled with greed. Thelma swallowed and slowly opened the iron gate, “Come in and let’s talk, I don’t want
to be seen.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMoney had indeed changed Thelma’s attitude drastically.
She eagerly welcomed them into the living room, even getting them two cups of tea
Her favorite thing was now lying conspicuously on the table.
With a gleam in her eye, Thelma pushed the tea towards Frederick, her hand inching towards the bank card, “Sir,
what exactly do you want to know?
Frederick didn’t bother with pleasantries, “Do you remember a woman named Zoe?”
Zoe?” Thelma’s response was vague, but her evasive eyes told Frederick all he needed to know
Thelma took a sip of water, “What about Zoe?”
“She had two children, do you remember? They were born a year apart”
“Two children?” Thelma was so surprised she nearly spit out her water, “She told you that?”
Frederick and Chuck were both confused
Thelma’s reaction was bewildering
Was it really that surprising that Zoe had two children?
Just as Frederick and Chuck were puzzled, they saw Thelma down the rest of her water and scoff, “She only had
one child, named Yuna!”
