Chapter 716


    "Let''s drive in," Butler Hond agreed. "We have already contacted the kindergarten beforehand so we


    can drive the car right in."


    "We can''t just drive in like this. We have a lot of cars and people with us. We have to find a way." Alice


    saw those people looking around across the road and she was very worried. She was really nervous


    and thought of a way to confuse them.


    "Butler Hond, call Mr. Maurice and let the children go to the back. We''ll pick them up from there,"


    Alice ordered.


    She continued, "Then, arrange for a car to drive in from the front. We must pretend to pick them up


    from the front, too."


    Butler Hond was sensible. He nodded immediately and responded, "I''ll call him now."


    Soon, he had made the necessary arrangements.


    The first car took the lead in heading to the back door.


    Thest car drove in through the front gate.


    The butler and Alice headed to the back together.


    Their car quickly drove towards the back door, where Mr. Maurice was already waiting. As soon as he


    saw Butler Hond, he immediately went forward.


    "Butler Hond, there are reporters at the front gate. Hurry up and take the children away. I have to


    remind you that they are very young and shouldn''t get involved in such disputes. No matter what, you


    have to protect the children," Mr. Maurice said.


    "Okay, thank you for your reminder," Alice replied politely.


    "Thank you," Butler Hond thanked him.


    "You''re wee. This is what we should do." Mr. Maurice smiled and ordered Miss Hond to bring the


    child over.


    Little Gary and Ernest quickly got into the car.


    The car started and drove back, followed by the bodyguards.


    Little Gary immediately asked Alice, "Little Aunt, what happened? Why did all the teachers look at us


    strangely today? Why did youe to pick us up in the middle of the ss?"


    In the face of the smart little guy, a guilty conscience shed across Alice''s eyes. She didn''t know how


    to tell the children.


    "Don''t think about it anymore. I just want to hear the truth." Little Gary''s sharp eyes caught on to Alice''s


    hesitation. "I know that you are trying to hide something from me. It seems like this is a difficult matter."


    "Yes," Alice replied. "Maybe it''s more difficult than the fact that your parents haven''t gotten married."


    "What''s going on?" Little Gary asked.


    "I think it''s better for your father to tell you about this." This time, Alice was very calm. "I can''t tell you


    anything, so don''t try to ask me."


    "Why don''t you want us to know?" Little Gary grew anxious when he heard her words. "Since it is a


    troublesome matter and you won''t say anything, how would we know? How do we know how to defend


    ourselves against it?"


    "Little Gary, stop pressing me." Alice looked at her nephew pleadingly. "I really don''t know how to tell


    you."


    "Mr. Butler, why don''t you tell us?" Little Gary had no choice but to turn to Butler Hond.


    Butler Hond replied, "You father must be very busy now. We don''t want to cause more trouble. Now


    go back and have a good meal, take a nap and y. Don''t get yourselves involved in this, okay?"


    Little Gary immediately frowned and his breathing was a little heavy. It seemed that he was a little


    angry.


    "Little Aunt, Mr. Butler, we''ll be worried if you hide it from us. Don''t treat us like children all the time,


    okay?" Ernest said. "Today, in school, our teachers looked at us several times and wanted to say


    something, but stopped on second thought. Some of them even looked at us with disdain and


    whispered to each other, saying that we were illegitimate children."


    Immediately, Alice''s face fell and her eyes widened. Were the kindergarten teachers talking about Little


    Gary and Ernest after they saw the news?


    That was probably what had happened. Otherwise, how could Ernest hear it?


    Alice frowned and said to Ernest, "The teacher may just be gossiping. They may not be referring to you


    two. It''s not a big deal. Don''t think too much about it."


    "The teacher was talking about us," Little Gary confirmed. "I heard it. I knew they said that we were


    illegitimate children. In actuality, Mommy did not get married. From this point of view, our parents are


    not in a marriage either. It is not wrong for them to say that."


    "Little Gary!" Alice eximed. "Don''t overthink things. It doesn''t matter."


    "Little Aunt, you don''t have tofort me," Little Gary answered. "I am not a child who can be brought


    down with just words. I know how to analyze things."


    Alice did not dare to say anything. She looked at him and did not know what to say for a long while.


    "Ernest is still immature." Little Gary looked at him. "He doesn''t feel safe right now. He just thinks that


    Mommy has left and isn''t by his side."


    "I''m not worried about myself!" Ernest immediately retorted, "I''m worried about Mommy and Daddy."


    "Alright. What you''re worried about is Mommy and Heinz." Little Gary gazed at him.


    Ernest returned his gaze.


    The two looked at each other and Ernest suddenly said, "Obviously, it''s you who doesn''t feel safe and


    you wouldn''t admit it."


    Little Gary turned his face away, saying nothing.


    Alice looked at Little Gary andforted him. "Don''t worry. Your father and mother are all doing fine.


    Don''t worry."


    "Little Aunt, isn''t it wrong for you to say that?" Little Gary asked, "If they are fine, why didn''t theye


    and pick us up?"


    Alice was at a loss for words. "I wouldn''t tell you even if there was indeed anything."


    "Then something big must have happened." Little Gary had already sensed the severity of the matter.


    Even if the adults kept quiet, he could investigate it himself.


    At the Jones Estate.


    Heinz received a call.


    "Auntie is still working with the Lawson family?" Heinz asked.


    "Where did Jodie stay all night?" Heinz asked again.

    "Where is she now?" Heinz asked in a deep voice.


    "She is now at the front door of ourpany."


    "Now?" Heinz''s brows furrowed tightly and his gaze sharpened. "Lester, be careful. Don''t let her enter


    thepany. Also, be careful that there may be reporters around her."


    "I know, everything has been arranged. These days, ourpany is under martialw and forty


    security people have been arranged to guard thepany. The wholepany is on alert," Lester


    answered.


    "Very good."


    "Check for the time when Jodie disappeared from Hart Vi District, and what she was doing," Heinz


    continued.


    "The results will be out soon." Lester was still sorting at the airport. "We have found the IP addresses,


    including several Inte sources. We have sent three emails with three different addresses."
