Chapter 850


    | frowned faintly and paused for a moment before continuing, "I didn’t get the box from auctions. It''s just a keepsake left by my


    grandmother."


    Elmore''s face was slightly stunned for a moment before he smiled again, looking at me as he said, "In that case, | guess Miss


    Reid must be from a noble family. Ordinary families won''t be able to afford to hire top-notch carpenters to make this box."


    Speaking of that, he frowned slightly and said thoughtfully, "Although I''m not a native of Ucrebury, I''m still quite familiar with


    Ucrebury. | don''t think | have heard of the Reid family in Ucrebury before!"


    | smiled faintly and nced at Evan. He understood what | meant. Then, he looked at Elmore and said, "Mr. Balton, you''re


    thinking too much into this. We''re just an insignificant family. Although this box was left behind by our ancestors, we don''t know if


    the box you bought is actually the Twin Box, so we still have yet to confirm it."


    "By the way, it''s gettingte. We have to go back now."This is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Elmore''s brows furrowed slightly as he looked at me and said, "Miss Reid, you..."


    | smiled lightly and said, "I''m really sorry. | need to go back and take care of my kids."


    With that, | got up. Elmore seemed to have something more to say, but when he saw that | was prepared to leave, he kept quiet.


    We got in the car after getting out of the museum. After starting the car engine, Evan took a sidelong nce in the rearview


    mirror. The corner of his mouth was raised in a smile full of disdain when he saw the car following us.


    | took a look and found that the driver in the car was Elmore. | asked lightly, "Have you conducted a background check on Mr.


    Balton?"


    Evan shook his head and replied, "I don''t have any information on him yet, but we''ll know who he ister."


    Looking at the Maybach that was following us, | couldn''t help frowning slightly, "There must be someone else above him."


    Evan nodded.


    What puzzled me was the reason why Elmore was trying to trick me into telling him what he wanted.


    “Are they trying to dig something out of me?" | asked, perplexed.


    Evan shook his head slightly and said, "| guess they''re trying to find out more about the box." Pausing for a moment, he looked


    at me and asked, "Have you ever asked about the origins of the box?"


    | shook my head, "My grandmother kept the box in the cab since | was young. She seemed to have never opened it at all. |


    thought it was some kind of jewelry box, so | didn''t pay much attention to it."


    "Hmm," he responded tly. "It seems that he wants to know more about the person behind the box."


    | pursed my lips and didn''t continue speaking. Those things needed to be investigated. It was impossible to figure everything out


    by sheer guessing.


    The car behind continued to follow us. They were probably afraid that we would notice them, so they purposely kept their


    distance.


    Evan drove in the direction of the vi. Seeing that, | couldn''t help saying, "It''s unsafe if we let them know where we''re staying.


    Let''s get rid of them first!"


    After all, we still had no idea what kind of person Elmore was. It felt unsafe to let them find out about us so easily.


    Evan nodded and sped up, changing course. Fortunately, he was familiar with Ucrebury. After making a short detour, he got rid of


    the car that was following us.


    It was already dark when we got back


    to the vi. Anne had elise ea

    Seeing that | was back, she greeted


    me and said, "Mr. Roberts ca eSiii

    worried. You''d better call him back."

    | nodded. | hadn''t looked at my phone while | was on my way back just then. | only realized that it was out of battery when | took


    it out at the moment.


    So | returned to the bedroom to charge my phone and called Hendrix after washing up. The call was picked up as soon as |


    dialed his number.


    It seemed that he had been waiting for my call. His voice was a little deep as he asked, "Are you in bed now?"


    | chuckled and turned on the speaker.
