chapter 978


    Anthony noticed Charmine had zoned out and, thinking she was angered, held up her hand. "You may


    hit me if you''re angry, just don''t hold it internally," he spoke as he held her hand to hit himself.


    Charmine quickly retrieved her hand. "Not at all, I won’t hold it against you. Go and sort out your


    things."


    What was most important is that she dared not hold it against him...

    Should the daye that he found out the truth, he might punish her severely if she did hold it against


    him!


    Seeing that she was not angry, Anthony felt perplexed.


    Since when had she be so understanding?


    Nheless, the matter at hand was readily difficult. He had to walk out of the car.


    Charmine watched his back uneasily. Anthony would soon dive back into the investigation.


    He already had his suspicion, and if she tried anything else, he would be more suspicious.


    Chris was already outside the door, waiting. Seeing that Anthony hade out, he pouted with


    displeasure. "Daddy is a bad guy. Why would you help that bad man to investigate? I heard the sword


    used to belong to the Chernys. Even if they really took it back, they did what they had to! Now that the


    sword was meant to be stolen, the one stealing the sword should be a hero! How dare you suspect


    Mommy, Daddy! I don''t want you to send me to school today!" 2


    Anthony frowned. He had to soothe his wife, and all of a sudden, he had to coax his son too?


    "Don’t get involved with adult things," he coldly muttered. "Go to school now."


    Not giving him any more chance to retort, he then held on to Chris’ small backpack and pulled him out.


    Charmine saw their backs, and a glint appeared in her eyes.


    Chris thought the thief was a hero?


    Promising; she could ask Chris to destroy Anthony''s following investigation.


    He was indeed her precious treasure!


    She timed the clock. After making sure Chris had arrived at school and parted with Anthony, she texted


    Chris,


    [Momo, I heard what you said in the morning. I agree with you-we''re on the same side!]


    [Momo: Really? You think so too? Daddy even scolded me for that! He said we can’t steal no matter


    what. If this happened in Burlington, he must find out the truth to prove to the other countries. He even


    said we have to conquer others with reasons.]


    Charmineughed to herself. Did Anthony think so? He said that to soothe a child.


    Anthony was indeed investigating the matter, but he was more curious about finding out the thief’s


    identity. It was less about making a statement to the other countries.


    Charmine then replied, [No matter what Daddy thinks, Momo is correct. When the other side isn''t


    reasoning, we don''t have to reason. No matter what you want to do, Mommy will support you!]


    [Really! Momo wants Daddy and his people to fail at finding out any evidence! Is that ok?] came Chris''


    reply.


    Charmine then texted, [Ok. Don''t expose yourself!]


    [Momo: Thank you, Mommy!]


    Once she managed to rope Chris into her n, she felt unusually guilty. She was even using a child... 1


    However, she had no choice. Once she got hold of the red wolf bone to cure Chris, everything would be


    fixed. Of course, she had to retrieve the sword first.


    Since Anthony was not around, she logged into another encrypted system and reeled back the


    messages. 1


    Not long ago, Guy sent her a message that read,


    (We''ve done what we can. There’s no clue. No footage was found in the forest. We don''t have any


    evidence.]


    Charmine frowned. No evidence? 1


    It seemed to be a dead end. What else could they do?
