Chapter 493

    Chapter 493


    In the study room, when the news of the two children being missing from the Cadogan


    Residence reached Bane’s ears, he immediately furrowed his brow. “They’re not there?


    She wouldn’t have entrusted the children to someone else. Have you searched


    everywhere?”


    Ethan nodded. “Our people who went looking reported that the children are not there,


    but they don’t know their exact whereabouts yet. So…” He hesitated for a moment


    before continuing, “It might take some time to locate their next location.”


    “How long?”


    “Um… I’m not sure. The car drove for about half an hour and then entered an


    unmonitored area, so we can’t track them for now.”


    Hearing this, Bane understood what it meant. So, our people arrivedte. Otherwise,


    why would they leave at this time? At this thought, he stared intensely at Ethan. “How


    did they know?”


    Ethan didn’t immediately grasp his meaning and asked, “What?”


    “Did you leak the information?” Bane looked at Ethan with a gaze as though he were


    looking at trash. “Do you want her to die?”

    At his question, Ethan was taken aback. He initially thought he had misheard and took a

    moment to understand what Bane meant. “Do you think I leaked the information, Mr.


    Morison?”


    “Did you not? Otherwise, why would they leave early? And why would they


    coincidentally take an unmonitored route? Or perhaps you manipted something in


    between?”


    Ethan pressed his lips together and fell silent. Only after a while did he say, “Mr.


    Morison, if you don’t trust me, find someone else to handle this for you, then.”


    “Ethan, do you know why I kept you?”


    “Yes, Mr. Morison. You entrusted me with protecting Miss Selwyn’s safety, and I’m also


    concerned about her. With her situation now, how could I possibly leak any


    information?”


    Bane stared at him, observing that his tone was normal when he spoke. Well, if he didn’t


    care about Victoria, he wouldn’t have dared to assist her in escaping in the first ce.


    Now that her life is in danger, there is no way he will betray her. However, he may be


    doing this intentionally, using her life to force me to release her and make me give up.


    With this in mind, Bane sneered. “How long have you been working for me?”


    Ethan remained silent.


    3/6


    “You know what kind of person I am, right?” Bane tapped lightly on the table with his


    fingertips, revealing impatience. “Since I managed to bring her back for the second


    time, there will be a third and a fourth time. So, you better not have any ideas. This time,


    I have no intention of letting her go.” As he said that, he smiled faintly.


    It was the first smile he had shown since Victoria’s ident, but this smile was


    wrong, giving off an eerie feeling.


    At his words, Ethan felt like something in his heart had copsed, and he had an


    extremely bad feeling.


    Sure enough, in the next moment, he heard Bane say, “She can only stay by my side,


    even if she dies.”


    Previously, he had used Victoria’s life as a means to provoke Bane into letting her go. At


    that time, Bane seemed afraid, perhaps because he had experienced the feeling of


    losing a loved one. That was why he locked himself in the study for a long time.


    However, Ethan never expected him to change so quickly.


    “Surprised? I just decided. Now that you know, go and do what you should be doing.”


    After leaving Bane’s study, Ethan felt as if he was floating as he walked. How did things


    escte to this point? Why did it turn out like this? What does Miss Selwyn have to do


    to leave this ce? Does she really… have to die here for Mr. Morison to be satisfied? I


    4/6


    can’t believe that he can be so cruel. Perhaps his words were only meant to provoke me


    and urge me to find the two children quickly.


    At this thought, he suddenly became clear–headed. Yes, Mr. Morison must still be


    worried about Miss Selwyn’s safety. If he isn’t worried, why would he be so impatient


    about not finding the two children? But I really didn’t leak any information, so why did


    the Cadogans take the children out all of a sudden? And they didn’t even tell anyone at


    the residence where they were going. What should I do? If I can’t find the two children,


    Miss Selwyn’s chances of survival will be slim. But if I find them, there may be no


    turning back anymore. I have to make a decision soon.


    After thinking it over, he made up his mind.


    After Ethan left, Bane remained alone in the study. His expression was sinister and his


    aura was icy cold, his entire demeanor giving off the feeling that he hated the world.


    Suddenly, his phone rang, so he nced at the caller ID, his eyes flickering slightly. After


    a moment, he answered the call. “Hello, Grandpa?” His tone wasn’t too good, but it


    wasn’t too bad either. It was his normal way of speaking.


    However, the words from the other end of the line made his expression suddenly turn


    cold. “What do you mean?”


    Old Mr. Morison’s cold snort sounded from the other end of the line. “Are you really


    asking me that? You know exactly what I’m saying. The girl from the Selwyn Family is


    with you, right? What do you n to do to her, you brat?”


    Bane pursed his thin lips and remained silent.


    “Bring that girl back home now! I don’t want people annoying me anymore.”


    “Did the Cadogans tell you that?”


    9/0


    “It doesn’t matter who told me. Just do as I say.” Old Mr. Morison’s words carried an air


    of autocracy and tyranny, for he had no intention of negotiating with Bane; it was a


    direct order.


    When Bane didn’t answer him, he questioned again, “I’m talking to you. Are you


    listening?”


    However, Bane let out a lowugh. Theughter was deep, but at this moment, it


    sounded extremely eerie to Old Mr. Morison.


    “Why are youughing, you brat?”


    Baneughed for a full minute, leaving Old Mr. Morison on the other end of the line


    almost fuming with anger before he finally stopped.


    “Grandpa, if I may ask, when you forced my mother to marry that piece of sh*t back


    then, did you use the same tone with her?”


    6/6


    The description of ‘that piece of sh*t‘ stunned Old Mr. Morison, and he took a while to


    realize whom Bane was referring to. Instantly, he became furious. “You brat, how can


    you say that? That’s your father!”


    “Oh, really? What has he done as my father? What responsibilities did he fulfill?” After


    saying that, Bane sneered. “He was just a murderer who killed my mother.”


    “He may be despicable, but he’s still your father!”


    “I have no father.”


    TESTERS


    “How dare you?” Old Mr. Morison was infuriated, but considering the disgraceful acts of


    his son, he didn’t want to argue with his grandson about that degeneracy. That useless


    thing can no longer be salvaged, but Bane’s means as the person in power are beyond


    satisfactory. “Whatever, it doesn’t matter if you acknowledge him as your father or not.


    Just release the girl from the Selwyn Family.”
