Chapter 138: Waiting For

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Because of Caroline’s words, Edwin’s emotions for the whole day seemed to be soaked in honey. The smile on his face never disappeared, and Joline and George were both a little frightened.

“Say, what kind of drug did that woman give Big Brother?” George didn’t understand.

Joline touched her heart. “Who knows?” After all, for a young couple in love, even just a look at each other could give rise to countless sweetness. But unfortunately, this sweetness only lasted until the night.

“You’ve investigated it?” he asked his men.

“Yes, I did. The woman’s real name is Cindy. She was born in the slums and her parents died of drugs. She was sent to a welfare home and adopted when she was six. The adopter was from the Smith family.”

“After that, she changed her name to Rachel and lived a peaceful life in elementary school and middle school. However, something happened in her second year of high school, and she disappeared. After the police checked the surveillance footage, they realized that Rachel had been dragged into a white van with a fake number plate and disappeared.”

“Just when everyone thought that Rachel would die just like that, five years later, she suddenly appeared again. At this time, Rachel’s previous lively and delicate appearance had changed. She had become resolute.”

The reason why they managed to find out the girl’s identity so quickly was that Rachel had once appeared as a female bodyguard in the group of bodyguards protecting the head of the Smith family, Joline’s brother, Joseph. Although she had only appeared once, she had still left a trace, which allowed them to find out.

The destroyed tattoo on Rachel’s body and the fact that she had cut off all ties with the Smith family were enough to convict the Smith family. However, all of these still couldn’t directly convict Joseph, the mastermind behind the scenes.

Edwin wondered what his uncle, Joseph, would do. He would probably push the idiot Robert out to take the blame. It would be fun to see them fighting each other.

“Other than checking the newly installed railing, did Robert do anything else unusual today?” Edwin asked.

“We just received news from the surveillance room. Young Master Robert sneaked into the changing room in the evening. The so-called changing room was the room where Caroline was trying on her dress.”

That day, Caroline was led to the balcony and almost caused a disaster. This made Edwin more aware of the danger. He felt that he had to install enough surveillance cameras in the house to further increase the security level of the Anderson family’s entire manor.

Therefore, in the past two days, many new invisible surveillance cameras had been installed in the castle. Robert wasn’t an observant person to begin with, so he probably didn’t notice the people who were setting up surveillance cameras. He thought that they were just preparing for the engagement party, so he didn’t know that his every move was actually being watched.

Robert naturally knew where the changing room was. He also knew that Caroline’s dress for her engagement was there. He had two purposes for sneaking in. One was to secretly install a pinhole camera in the changing room. The other was to destroy the dress and jewelry that Caroline was going to wear. This way, she would have no dress and jewelry to wear tomorrow.

These two schemes of his were very successful, but unfortunately, as soon as he made a move, all the movements were already grasped by others.

One of his subordinates asked Edwin, “Should we capture Young Master

Robert?”

Edwin turned the ring on his thumb. “No need for now. Since he’s looking forward to tomorrow’s engagement party so much, I have to leave him the best viewing spot.”

The engagement party arrived as scheduled.

Today, the Anderson family opened their doors to welcome their guests. The engagement party was set to be held in the evening, but there were already guests at the door just after lunch.

Meanwhile, Caroline brought Eva and Danika to Anderson’s house and started to prepare.

“Yo, isn’t this Miss Caroline?” Robert suddenly appeared and blocked their path. “I’m very sorry. I was drunk the other day, so I said some offensive things to you. Please forgive me.”

This arrogant Young Master Smith had purposely waited here and even said that he wanted to apologize to her. Caroline felt that unless it was red rain, he must be up to no good and was trying to do something..
