Chapter 409


    So, the one who had always been after swallowing up the Hayes family was someone from the


    Devil’s w.


    Devil’s w is an underground syndicate in Europe. Their influence was vast and mighty,


    controlling the lifelines of various European nations’ economies. Rumors said that their leaders


    were the rulers of Europe’s major families. These folks had banded together, monopolizing the


    entire European industrial chain.


    As the domestic front had rapidly developed in recent years, Devil’s w’s reach had begun to


    extend toward domestic enterprises. Ian had been approached with an offer to join their ranks, with


    the promise of ess to the European market.


    However, Ian didn’t believe that Devil’s w was the mastermind behind this. With the power that


    Devil’s w wielded, if they wanted apany dead, they wouldn’t plot for over twenty years. So,


    he was certain that this person was one of Devil’s w’s leaders, but also an enemy of the Hayes


    family.


    Just then, Dawson pulled out a ck-and-white photo from his pocket and handed it to Ian. “Mr.


    Hayes, I found this photo under the bed in the master bedroom of the vi. Could this boy in the


    picture be the mastermind?”


    Ian took the photo. His eyes darkened.


    The photo depicted a mother and son. The woman was sultry and seductive, and the little boy was


    handsome with a tense look in his eyes. On the woman’s shoulder was a man’s hand. Clearly, there


    was originally another man in the photo, but he had been cut out.


    Ian stared at the photo for a long time. Perhaps the man who’d been cut out had some connection


    to the Hayes family. More precisely, he was a man of the Hayes family.


    He sent people to interrogate the suspects overnight and learned that their boss was a man with a


    disability in his legs.


    Nobody knew his name. And very few had ever seen his true face.


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    This man was so hidden that Ian couldn’t catch him even after casting such a big. Ian grew


    more and more curious about this man.


    At that moment, the hospital room door swung open.


    Rose entered with the butler. Her face was alight with joy. “Ian, everything has been taken care of,


    and the bad guys have been caught. Isn’t it time you and ra get hitched? If you wait any longer,


    my great-grandchild will be born.”


    She approached ra, tenderly caressing her cheek. “These days have been tough on our ra.


    Once we get home, I will take good care of you.”


    ra responded with a smile, “Thank you, Grandma.”


    “Just look at how thin your face has gotten, and your hands have roughened up, all from tending to


    this jerk here pretending to be sick. He is making my granddaughter-inw suffer. I’ll deal with you


    once we’re home.”


    Upon hearing Rose’s rebuke, Ian couldn’t help but chuckle softly.


    “Grandma, you should get your facts straight before youy into me. These past days, I’ve been the


    one taking care of her. Brushing her teeth, washing her face, I did all of that. I fed her meals,


    cleaned up after her. If anyone’s suffered, it’s me.”


    At these words, Rose’sughter was uncontainable. “Taking care of your wife is your duty, and


    besides, women go through the toughest time during this period. If not you, who else should tend to


    her? Our ra is so beautiful, with such a fine figure; willing to bear your child is your good fortune.


    Nowadays, many young couples don’t even want children. Count your blessings.”


    Rose pulled ra to sit on the bed, and just as she was about to speak again, her gaze fell on the


    photo by the bed. Her somewhat dim eyes suddenly froze, and her voice was trembling. “Where did


    this photoe from?”
