Chapter 4 – Granddaughter-in-Law

The old lady began. “His name is Lewis… What’s his surname?”

The name she had just recollected slipped out of her mind again.

The old woman was somewhat anxious. Her mouth opened and closed repeatedly, yet she couldn’t form the words.

“Take it easy, ma’am. It doesn’t matter if you can’t remember,”

Keira consoled her before making a phone call.

Meanwhile, in a street a few blocks away.

Lewis was sitting in a Bentley. His face was gloomy and his underling, Tom Davis, was too scared to even breathe. “I’m sorry, sir. I failed you. I lost old Mrs. Horton!”

Lewis didn’t respond, and his chilling aura made Tom shudder in fear.

Old Mrs. Horton would often get lost in her thoughts. Who would’ve expected that she would suddenly snap back to lucidity and sneak out when the others were all distracted?

Having checked the security cameras, they found that she had taken a bus to the suburbs all by herself.

This area was a bit run down, and many of the streets didn’t have cameras installed, making a thorough search the only option.

Just then, the phone rang.

Lewis immediately answered it. A serene female voice came from the other end. “Hello, I have the old lady you’re looking for.”

“…”

The air in the car seemed to freeze in an instant, and the temperature felt a few degrees lower.

Everyone jumped into action. Some prepared to call the police, and Tom was tracking the source of the incoming call.

Lewis’s eyes were sharp, and his voice was steady. “How much money do you want?”
