His words made Victoria frown upsettingly. “Stop pretending! If the twins are not with
you, then where are they?”

ric already had a hunch when she asked for the twins earlier. Moreover, Victoria
should’ve brought the twins back home at this time instead ofing here and asking
him for the twins.
Thinking of a possibility, ric grabbed Victoria’s shoulder and squinted his eyes,
asking, “Have the twins gone missing?”
Taken aback, Victoria retorted, “What do you mean by that, ric? You should know
best why the twins have gone missing!”
At that, ric frowned. “They’ve gone missing, huh?”
Victoria fell silent in response. He didn’t answer my question or divert the conversation.
but instead repeatedly verified the fact that Nathan and Nicole have gone missing.
Could it be…
“Were you not the one who took Nathan and Nicole away?”
The next second, ric walked past her and out of the bedroom, whereas Victoria

hurriedly turned around to catch up.
“ric-”
“Hold on.” ric signaled her not to speak as he held his phone. However, it was then.
he realized his phone was dead.
It would be too slow to wait for it to charge and turn on, so he extended a hand to
Victoria. “Give me your phone.”
“Why?”
“To call Terrance.”
Victoria hesitated for a moment but eventually handed him her phone.

ric, on the other hand, called Terrance right away, and as soon as Terrance
answered, he immediately informed them that the twins were missing. “Have someone
retrieve the kindergarten’s surveince immediately to see who took the twins away.
Also, have others investigate the surrounding area.”
Meanwhile, Victoria furrowed her brows while listening to his words, and after he hung
up the phone, she asked, “Are Nicole and Nathan really not with you?”
Chapter 310 You’ve Already Figured it Out?
She still didn’t quite believe that anyone besides ric would take the children away
without informing her. Besides ric, who she believed wanted to take the children
away from her, Victoria couldn’t think of anyone else.
“Does it look like there have been signs of children here?” ric asked while returning.
her phone.
“No, but who knows if you deliberately hid them away?!”
“Why would I hide them away, Victoria?” ric asked helplessly after a split–second
stupefaction. “Am I a child trafficker?”

While biting her lower lip, Victoria thought, You might not be a child trafficker, but you’re

more terrifying than one. However, she ultimately didn’t voice her thoughts.
Just then, ric, who had been standing in ce talking to her, walked toward the
wardrobe. Thinking he was trying to avoid the situation, Victoria followed him again.
“Are you sure the twins aren’t here? Are you not lying to me, ric? I can’t think of
anyone else but you who’d take Nicole and Nathan away.”
ric opened the wardrobe expressionlessly and paused momentarily after hearing her
words, then said, “First, exin clearly what the teacher said to you when you went to
Chapter 310 You’ve Already Figured it Out?
pick them up.”

Victoria recalled the teacher telling her that the children’s father hade to pick them
1. up.
After exining the situation truthfully, ric let out a coldugh. “Father? I left at
noon. Who the hell picked them up? Is the teacher out of their mind?”
Victoria was rendered at a loss for words.
ric was about to pick out a shirt when something urred to him, and his
countenance turned grimmer. He suddenly turned his head and stared at Victoria.
“Think carefully. Is there really no one else besides me who’d take the twins away?
Nicole and Nathan aren’t ordinary children. They’re very smart and wouldn’t simply walk
away with strangers.”
Victoria fell silent at that. Yeah, Nicole and Nathan aren’t ordinary kids. They have
always been exceptionally clever. Even if Nicole is a little naive, Nathan would never
simply get into a stranger’s car. In other words, someone familiar must’ve taken them!
However, who could have them get into their car willingly, address them as ‘father,‘ and
even have the motive to take them away?
Victoria pondered seriously for a while, then lifted her gaze. “I really can’t think of
Chapter 310 You’ve Already Figured It Out?
anyone else but you.”
B
ric was rendered speechless, and he almostughed with anger. “Victoria Selwyn,
do you think I’d waste my time telling you all this if I really have any motives? What can
you do to me even if I tell you straight that the twins are here with me?”
Victoria pursed her lips, looking somewhat stubborn. “Who else could it be besides you,
though?”
“Who do you think?” ric retorted.
“What do you mean? Have you already figured it out?”
ric replied to her with a cold snort and put on a white dress shirt while saying, “You’ll
find out soon enough.”
Seeing him like that, Victoria couldn’t help but think that he was teasing her, and just as
she was about to press on, ric suddenly pulled off the towel around his waist.
Victoria, who hadn’t paid attention to anything before, finally reacted, and she stared
wide–eyed at ric with incredulity.
A long whileter, ric smirked and asked, “Have you seen enough?”

His voice brought Victoria back to reality, and she snapped at once. “Are you out of your
mind?!”
“Isn’t it because you want to watch me change that you’ve been standing here instead
of leaving?” ric pressed his lips into a fine line, put on his pants indifferently,
fastened his belt, and sped up the belt buckle expressionlessly.
Though Victoria had seen him in his birthday suit five years ago, still…
Her ears flushed, but at the thought of how shameless ric behaved, she couldn’t
help wanting to upset him. “Well, jokes on you. I’ve seen so many hunks over my five
years abroad that I’ve gotten sick and tired of them. Why would I stick around to watch
you?”
ric paused from buttoning his shirt at that, and his aura changed ordingly.
He slowly turned his head around, his raven–ck eyes fixed intently on Victoria. “What
did you say?”
“Did you not hear me? Shall I repeat it to you?”
He didn’t answer but continued to stare intently at her.
Mon,

After a long while, he withdrew his gaze and said icily, “Let’s find the twins first.”
??
If it weren’t that the twins were currently missing, ric would’ve made sure she knew
the consequences of deliberately provoking him.
“If you didn’t take Nicole and Nathan away, then it has nothing to do with you. I will find
them myself!” Victoria snapped angrily before walking away.
After descending the stairs and exiting the vi, she came face to face with a ck.
sedan parked in front of her.
Seeing this car, Victoria was speechless. He doesn’t even bother hiding anymore now
that I’ve discovered him, eh?
The car window rolled down, and ric’s handsome, indifferent side profile appeared.
“Get in.”
“No need. I’ll look for them myself.”
“I know where they are.”
His words made Victoria stop, and he gazed intently at her. “Get in. I’ll take you to them.”
