chapter 1954


    The Baileys arrived at the pier where they spotted arge cruise docked nearby, and a lonely yet


    arrogant figure waited by the pier.


    There was a ss with red wine in it in his hand, and a suave air permeated from him. He smirked as


    he watched the Baileys rush toward him, his face not yet revealed to them.


    When Anthony spotted the man, he frowned.


    This man was Charmine''s kidnapper?


    Just as suspicion crept into Anthony''s mind, the man gradually turned over to show his face.


    It was...


    Charmine''s agent, Eric!?


    Anthony''s elegant face contorted in fury as he growled, "It''s you, huh?"


    Eric sipped his wine aloofly and smirked at the Baileys. "How did it feel like in the past few days living


    in fear?"


    Everyone was shocked to see this ruthless man.


    Was he the one that sent them that series of threats? Was he not Charmine''s agent?


    Susan pursed her lips and thought of something. She crossed her arms elegantly. "So it was you who


    sent out the threats in the past few days?"


    Eric red at her and did not answer, his eyes clouded withplexity.


    Susan acted as if she got hold of the evidence and stretched her back. "I know you-you''re Charmine’s


    agent! Are you taking it out on her because she’s offended you? I knew Charmine had hurt people!


    You''ve all seen it now, yet everyone told me off for saying so! This whole mess was caused by


    Charmine, after all!”


    Susan looked at the rest of the Bailey haughtily, proud of herself.


    "Stop talking nonsense at such a critical moment!" snapped Grandma


    Bailey.


    "I want to say it now: She deserves to be kidnapped, and she even caused all of us to live in fear. I


    don''t even know what you all like about her!" Susanined, evidently displeased.

    Eric red at Susan who was at the pier, and his expression turned colder. He picked up his wine ss


    and took a sip, his gaze trained onto the woman.


    He asked, "Mrs. Bailey thinks it''s all because of Charmine, does she? Have you not considered that


    you might have been the cause all along?" 3


    Everyone frowned.


    Did he just imply that Susan had offended him before?


    The man''s remark sounded ironic to Susan, who sneered. "What nonsense are you talking about?


    What does it have anything to do with me? I''ve never done anything wrong! I don''t offend people, not


    like Charmine did. Also, have we met before? Do I know you?" i


    How dare he!


    This must have been a plot set up by Charmine to frame her, but no, Susan was not easily fooled!


    Eric smiled coldly and said, "It seems that you''ve forgotten about the child you gave birth to in


    Muriona!" i


    Susan''s smirk instantly stiffened.


    Muriona? Child?


    Her eyes widened as the words sank in, and she gazed at Eric with disbelief. She became shocked


    and perplexed. 1


    D*mn it. How did he know?


    Was he... Was he...


    When the Baileys heard what the man had said, they all looked at Susan, equally as shocked.


    "What is he saying?" "What does he mean, your child in Muriona?" "You have another child other than


    Anthony?"


    These interrogative questions filled her ears.


    Susan''s face turned pale and embarrassed. She looked at Eric, stupefied and conflicted, and was


    unable to react for a very long while.


    Was this man standing before her...


    Eric looked into Susan''s eyes with a hateful look.


    His lips curled up coldly as he said, "Let me tell you a story."
