The Ex and Her Riches

“Nico, immediately send a team to the lab to protect Benny and Zendy. I want to go with you to find him.”

Not daring to go against Gwendolyn’s order, Nico could only agree to her request.

Apart from the soldiers from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Nico had no choice but to send a message to Charles, asking him to come over and keep the kids company to prevent them from waking up and looking for Gwendolyn everywhere.

Nico texted: Charles, we have a mission tonight. If you’re not asleep, please come to the lab as soon as possible to look after Benny and Zendy. Thank you.

At that moment, Charles had just finished bathing and stepped out from the steam-filled bathroom to dry his wet hair.

He hadn’t rested yet. The annihilation of the Cloud family had a significant impact on him after he returned to his regular work and life. He was still investigating the suspicious aspects of that incident.

Upon receiving Nico’s message, he immediately grabbed his coat and was ready to head out.

Upon hearing the noise, Whitney sat up in bed, asking in a daze, “Mr. Newton, are you going out?

Charles responded indifferently. “You should rest early. No need to wait up for me.”

He then strode out the door and drove away.

Whitney stood by the window and watched him leave, feeling a bit puzzled in her heart. The rain is pouring so heavily outside, yet he’s leaving in such a hurry. Whose matter could it be? It can’t possibly be about the company. Perhaps the news about the extermination of the Cloud family started to spread online again? Or, has he gone to deal with matters concerning his childhood sweetheart again?

Even though doubts filled her heart, Whitney didn’t dare to contact Charles, let alone ask him anything. She was afraid of upsetting him again.

Now that he was gone, Whitney found herself unable to sleep. All she could do was browse the internet for news, hoping to find some way to help.

Meanwhile, outside the laboratory, Gwendolyn stood at the door, pacing back and forth with an anxious expression.

Nico quickly arrived at the laboratory to pick up Gwendolyn and leave.
