Chapter 471

“Waking up at a time like this, I’m not sure when you can go to sleep tonight. Come and stay with the kids and tell them a story. My throat’s going hoarse.”

Robert smiled and went in, taking the storybook from Georgia, and started telling stories to the still wide-eyed children.

Georgia waited patiently and stayed with the children for almost forty minutes before they shut their eyes and went to sleep.

Afterwards, husband and wife left the room.

“Did you sleep well?”

Georgia turned to Robert and asked as they were outside.

She was afraid that Robert still felt ill somewhere, and she was on guard at all times.

“I’m much better after a nap. Don’t worry, I’m feeling fine.”

Robert said that and sighed.

“I just called Jason. Jasper still hasn’t found where the child is and no kidnappers have given the Holland family a call. It’s getting more and more serious. These rivals are clearly only targeting the children; they’re not even bragging or gloating about it. We’ve investigated all the potential enemies of the Holland family and turned up nothing.”

“See if you can get some other people’s help. Wilson’s already helping, but I haven’t gotten any news on my side either. It’s like looking for a needle in the haystack trying to find a child in a sea of population. This is troublesome.”

The couple weren’t too happy about the news, and as they went hand in hand to the bedroom to rest, Georgia thought of something else.

“There was too much going on yesterday and I forgot to tell you. After you, Aunt Laurie and Uncle Carr took Wesley to the hospital, Aston told me about Kayden.

“He says that last year, he participated in a hematology research team that had their project results stolen by another pharmaceutical company.

Weren’t we suspecting that Kayden was getting close to Aston only to steal the experimental data? Seems the suspicion was correct, but Aston also told me that he didn’t have the complete data. Even if Kayden approached him and stole the figures from him, she couldn’t have stolen all of the data.

He didn’t understand why Kayden targeted him.

“He told me, though, that the Ace Group was the one who’d invested in them in the beginning, but the project results were published by the Albertson Group. I feel like Kayden might have something to do with the Albertson Group, but I don’t know about the investors and authority figures behind the scenes with these two companies, nor do I understand their research staff too well... I don’t know if you have a good understanding of these two groups, Robert. If you do, we’ll send people to investigate it, and we might find out who’s behind Kayden.”

“The Albertson Group?”

Robert spoke curiously.

“The main people in power behind this group is the Wimbledon family. It’s a family that’s hundreds of years old with really deep wealth. People on the market can’t even estimate how much property they have.

“With so much history behind them, Wimbledon family could have huge nets of connections and power. If Kayden is behind them, she has to have a trade relationship with them. Robert, let’s start investigating from the Albertson and Wimbledon angle. It might help.”

“I’ve got it. I’ll look into it soon.”

As Robert said that, the two laid against each other in bed.

The two had napped in the daytime and they weren’t sleepy at the moment.

Georgia thought about Travis and Sarah’s wedding at the end of next month and told Robert slowly about it.

Robert found it strange and even asked it directly.

“From what I know of Travis, he always liked you, and getting married to someone else – Sarah Duran to boot – is a bit strange, don’t you think?”

Georgia gossiped along with him.

“I found it strange too, but somethings shouldn’t be looked too deep into as outsiders. I feel like Miss Duran really likes Travis, and if Travis could set the past down and live happily ever after with her, the reasons aren’t important. I just hope the two of them can find happiness.”

“I hope they can find happiness too.”

Robert said from the bottom of his heart.

Travis had been a fierce rival beside him, and now that this rival was getting married, it was strange, but a good thing, and Robert felt pretty relieved.

Of course he was confident in his wife’s feelings for him.

But he had to stay on guard, and he couldn’t have ignored her first love staying by her.

Men couldn’t be too petty or blame it on their wives, so he could only bear it, since Travis really was good to Georgia.

The two chatted away, and maybe because they’d stayed up late at night, they fell asleep.

The morning afterwards when they woke, Robert gave a regular call to Jasper and Jason. Still no news of Daniel.

The family didn’t have a happy breakfast at that news.

The butler had packed the luggage. Georgia was still packing, seeing if they’d missed anything.

Robert went to his mother’s house. He was leaving with Georgia today.

Before he left, he had to see Maisie.

Vincent had stayed with her for the past two days and chatted, and had agreed to Robert coming to see her.

Vincent hadn’t started guiding Maisie’s psyche yet to forget everything, and had only been chatting with her and slowly building a friendship between the two of them.

When Robert came over, it was ten or so in the morning, and Maisie had just woken up.

She basked in the sun in the garden, the beams warm in the winter, calming.

Hearing footsteps, Maisie opened her eyes, saw Robert, and her expression cooled.

“You haven’t come see me for the past few days. I thought you didn’t acknowledge me as a mother anymore.”

Robert smiled helplessly and walked over to stand by her side.

“Mom, I’m taking the kids overseas today and I might only come back after a while. Don’t worry. The people left in the country will protect you.”

“Protect me, eh. With this many people watching me, it feels more like imprisonment. You’re just afraid that I’ll go out and do something to hurt Georgia. Quit pretending.”

Maisie mocked.

“I’m leaving today, Mom. I don’t want to keep some things from you. There’s a lot of people targeting the Simpsons right now. I’m not letting you leave because I’m afraid the people behind the scenes will take you away and hurt you. You remember what Laurence Knight did, right? I just want to avoid that situation.

“And another thing. I don’t know how much longer I have, Mom. You have to take care of yourself. When your emotions are settled and you no longer mind the pain, you’ll be happy.”

That vague line had Maisie curious.

“What’s happened? If you’re that muddled about it, I don’t understand.”

“There’s people in the shadows targeting the Simpsons and it’s not safe around me, so I’ll send a lot of people to protect you, Mom. If strangers try to lure you out or if there’s a traitor in the bodyguards, remember to chase them out. If you stay cautious, no one will take you away to hurt you.”

Robert naturally wasn’t going to tell his mother what was up, and Maisie was a bit angry.

“You’re not trying to play the victim in front of me, are you? I’m telling you, even if you threaten me with death, I wouldn’t accept Georgia! But I’ve done the same with you already, and you’re still choosing her. You’ve thrown me away a long time ago. Why am I wasting time talking to you? Get out, I don’t want to see you!”

“Take care of yourself, Mom.”

Robert finally said.

In the afternoon, the family went to the airport, and the two took Annie and Wesley with them, preparing to go overseas.

Part of it was because Casey wanted to see the children, mainly Annie.

The two considered that leaving Wesley in the country wasn’t safe, and they were also afraid the children would feel like there was preferential treatment, so they took both of them.

The plane trip took six hours, and the family feel asleep, tired.

When they landed, the children hadn’t woken up yet.

Georgia shook them awake, kissing Annie and Wesley on the cheeks, and leaning next to their ear.

“Come on, wake up, your theme park is here...”

That had the children excited and fully awake.

Coming out the airport, their assistants and bodyguards pushed the luggage behind them, while Georgia and Robert led one child each through the VIP passage at the airport.

Then she suddenly found Robert rushing to the front without saying anything to her.
