Ex Husband Goes Money Comes Chapter 470
Chapter 470 The nking of Chains
The corridor was dark. With the small shlight, they could vaguely see the closed doors.
As Todd led Vi forward, Dewey followed behind.
The first door was opened and this room turned out to be a study.
The lights in the study could be turned on.
Todd waved to the two soldiers who were still waiting outside the iron door in the corridor. They
immediately ran over and pretended to look for stolen crystal earrings in the study.
He led Vi and continued to open the door to another room.
Dewey took a deep breath nervously and continued following.
Another door opened. It was an empty bedroom with carved wooden furniture. The decoration was
simple but exquisite. It was clean.
Dewey exined, "This used to be Mr. Felton’s room. Ever since Mr. Felton passed away, Mrs. Felton
often said that she would see Mr. Felton in this room and could not sleep at night. Afterward, this room
has been left aside. Mr. Ronian has the room cleaned every day."
Todd nodded and the two soldiers who pretended to finish checking the study entered this bedroom to
rummage around carefully.
Having got out of the bedroom, Todd fixed his eyes on the room across the corridor.
Vaguely, there was the sound of chain nking.
Todd turned around and nced at Vi only to meet Vi''s eyes.
Both their gazes were very serious.
Todd had a bad feeling.
Todd was about to walk over and turn the doorknob when Dewey suddenly blocked the door in front of
him.
"This room is Mrs. Felton''s current bedroom. Now, she is already asleep. If you wake her up, she will
be unhappy. You absolutely cannot enter this room!"
The more strongly he reacted, the more it showed that there were some hidden secrets in this room.
Vi said, “I''ve been ying in the Felton''s home since I was a child. Mrs. Falcon likes me very much.
This time, I lost my beloved crystal earrings. I believe she will understand."
Todd was about to go past Dewey and forcefully open the door.
"No, you really can''t enter this room! If Mr. Ronian knows about this, he''ll fly into a rage!"
"You really can''t! You can’t!"
He gripped the door frame tightly and blocked the door, his breathing rapid from nervousness.
Perhaps because the noise outside was very loud, the sound of chains dragging on the ground came
from inside again.
The two parties were in a deadlock for a few minutes.
As it was gettingte, Todd could only apologize, "Dewey, I''m sorry!"
He pushed her away hard and Dewey staggered a few steps to the side. Thankfully, a soldier who had
finished checking another room held his arm in time, so Dewey did not fall.
Todd took two steps forward. No sooner had he grabbed the doorknob than a man''s growl came from
the stairwell.
"Stop it!"
The voice...
Todd and Vi looked out of the iron gate at the same time, Ronian ran upstairs, panting with a furious
face.
Several bodyguards behind him held lights in their hands and followed him into the corridor.
Vi frowned and clenched her fists. Ronian had rushed back. It would be difficult to find Sherlyn and
confirm her status.
The n for the past few days was about to be ruined, which made her look particrly serious. She
whispered to Todd, “Don''t worry about it. Open the door."
Todd was about to turn the doorknob when the sound of the gun being loaded came.
Ronian stood about seven feet away. He raised his gun and coldly pointed it at Todd''s head.
He threatened in a sinister voice, “Todd, you led troops to break into the Felton''s house and swagger
around here. Don''t think that I won''t dare to hurt you with Ormand''s protection!"
"If you dare to open this door and disturb my mother''s rest, I will immediately kill you."
After all, Ronian was superior to him, so he could only let go reluctantly.
Vi stepped forward to block the muzzle of the gun and protect Todd. She looked at Ronian and
exined, "Mr. Ronian, my crystal earrings were stolen at the tea party. All thedies who attended the
tea party have been investigated. Todd is merely doing his job. There''s no need to get so serious,
right?"
Ronian didn''t put down his hand, giving off a sinister air.
"Mrs. Hobson, I''ve heard the bodyguards exin this when I came in. Since you suspect my sister of
stealing the earrings, you should ask her for them instead of searching wantonly in my house."
Vi''s expression didn''t change. '' But Jennifer isn''t home. I don''t know where she is. What if she
comes back here to hide the earrings that she stole from me and goes out to hide somewhere for fear
of taking responsibility?"
Ronian replied sinisterly, “I will investigate this matter thoroughly and ask my sister to give you an
exnation. If she really stole your earrings, I will pay you three times the worth of the earrings. I will
also break her hands and legs and take her to apologize to you."
“Ronian..." Vi frowned subtly.
Before she could finish speaking, Ronian interrupted her. "It''ste at night. Mrs. Hobson, please take
your people and leave my home."
His rude words left no room for argument.

Todd looked at Vi uneasily, but Vi did not say a word.
The atmosphere in the corridor was a bit intense.
Ronian came back. As the head of the Felton family and the deputy director of the National Bureau of
Investigation, he was senior to Todd. His words were well said. Vi and Todd had no reason to
continue searching.
“Alright, since you don''t wee me. I will leave then." Vi smiled.
Ronian lowered the muzzle of his gun and exined calmly, "It''s not that I don''t wee you. Sherlyn
is sick and my mom isn''t feeling well. We don''t keep guests at night."
When she heard him talk about Sherlyn, Vi instantly responded.
"I heard you say that Sherlyn got a cold. Howe she hasn''t gotten well by now? Her job has been
dyed for a long time. What on earth is ailing her?"
Ronian replied, “She has got the flu due to the weather. It is a little serious and contagious, so I''ve
sealed off the Felton''s house and stopped guests froming in case they will be infected.”
He took two steps back and leaned against the wall to make way. Meanwhile, he also politely gestured
for Vi to leave.
Vi didn''t want to leave, but she had no choice but to leave with Todd.
After taking two steps, the nking of chains came from right behind. Moreover, the sound was very
rhythmic and light, breaking the silence.
Vi stopped and turned to ask Ronian, “Mr. Ronian, did you hear anything just now?"
Todd immediately echoed, "Vi, I heard it too. It seems to be the nking of chains. How could there
be such a sound on the top floor of the Felton''s home? Could it be ... someone is imprisoned inside?"
"Todd!" Ronian''s eyes were malicious. He shouted at him through gritted teeth again, "This is my family
business. Who are you to intervene? Just now, it was not the sound of chain nking. It was the sound
of the bead curtain being blown up because the window wasn''t closed."
Vi nced coldly at the closed door right behind her.
The difference between the sound of the bead curtain being blown and the sound of chain nking was
so obvious. What ame excuse!
It took her lots of effort toe here. If she couldn''t confirm Sherlyn''s status, Ronian would only be
more vignt, and it would be even harder for her to do this again.
Vi didn''t want to give up and go home.
She decided to go all out!
