The lights of the bedroom and living on the top floor were on. Someone was home.
Madison took out some cash when she saw a cleaning lady cleaning up snow some distance away.
“Madam, please help me out.”
The cleaning lady accepted the bribe and helped Madison get upstairs. Madison hid in the stairwell as she watched the cleaning lady ring the doorbell.
The door opened, and it was Henry, in his pajamas, who answered it. He looked as gentlemanly as ever.
“Mr. Synder, some resident had just reported that her child had gone missing.
“Since the child is very young, she’s not sure if he might have entered the wrong unit. Have you seen a boy this tall entering the wrong unit?”
“I haven’t Do you need me to help you inform the authorities?
The cleaning lady shook her head. “No need. We’ve checked the surveillance footage.
“The child should still be in the area. I’ll stop bothering you and look somewhere else.”
Henry closed the door. He adjusted his glasses with a glint of inquiry in his eyes.
There were only six units in the southern area. The first three units were vacant. There were only two other residences.
One unit had a family without children, and the other belonged to a celebrity who was working overseas most of the time and only came back in the summer.
Where did the child come from?
Besides, the public area was under surveillance. They only needed to check the cameras to see if a child had come to his place.
Why did they need someone to come and confirm?
Something wasn’t right.
The cleaning lady met up with Madison at a corner. “Miss, I took a look. There was a woman in the living room of Mr. Synder’s unit. She looked sickly and pale.”
Madison took out Everly’s picture and asked, “Is this the woman you saw?”
“Yes, this is the one I saw
“Thanks, lady.” Madison handed the cleaning lady another wad of cash.
She had confirmed that Everly was here but couldn’t contact her by phone. What did she have to do to see Everly?
She pulled her hat lower and left the area. While walking, she accidentally ran into another woman.
Madison was afraid of attracting attention, so she apologized and left quickly without looking up. She didn’t notice the woman freeze in place.
The woman turned around and stared in the direction Madison went.
After a while, a hint of anger flashed on the woman’s face.
“How are you still alive?
That night, Madison tossed and turned in bed. She couldn’t fall asleep. She didn’t know how she could help Everly.
Was she staying with Henry willingly? Or did Everly want to get away like she did?
She couldn’t think of a better solution, so she decided to ask Everly in person.
The following day, Madison started to investigate Henry’s whereabouts. She kept it up for a few days.
Everly’s miscarriage should have happened recently. She had been resting at Henry’s place without even coming out.
A lady was responsible for buying the groceries, cooking, and cleaning every day.
She was very tight-lipped. Madison tried to cozy up to her, but she didn’t get any information from the lady.
A week had passed. It had been around two weeks since Everly’s miscarriage.
Given her personality, she would be out the door very soon.
On the sixth day of her tailing Henry, Madison heard him asking Hunter to join him for some drinks.
Henry rubbed his temples and said with a troubled expression, “Does Madison really think we haven’t noticed her?”
He took out a stack of photos.
They were all of Madison when she was tailing him. She looked adorable while she was poking her head around in the photos.
“Or do you think I have nothing better to do other than play this game with her every day?”
Henry discovered Madison quite some time ago. He had to order the bodyguards to ignore her so she wouldn’t know he already knew.
“Take your woman back with you. I don’t have time for her games.”
Hunter took the photos away like they were some treasure. “Where’s the film?”
Henry looked at Hunter and said, “Do you have to be so creepy?”
“It’s none of your business. I want to keep photos of my wife for myself.”
Hunter didn’t think his actions were embarrassing at all. In fact, he was a little proud of himself.
He didn’t get to see such a cute side of Madison that often.
Henry shook his head in resignation. “You’re hopeless. Both of you are messed up. She’s tailing me, and you’re tailing her. Can’t you just play your games at home?”
“You’ll understand if you’re in my shoes.”
Henry swayed the glass and sipped on the wine elegantly.
“I don’t understand, nor do I want to. Women are all the same. Give them the carrot when they’re obedient or the stick when they act out of line.”
Everyone had a different view on relationships.
Henry didn’t understand Hunter’s perspective, and vice versa.
“It’s like you’re training a dog.” Hunter hit the nail on the head.
“You dote on your wife too much. You’re so obsessed with her, but you don’t even get to hold her hand.
“You even have to sneak around. To be frank, I find that appalling.”
Hunter didn’t explain himself. He looked at Henry with a weary expression.
“You’ll regret your actions someday.”
“Yeah, right.”
Henry finished his wine with a sneer on his face. “Do you know the biggest difference between us? Women are like playthings to me.
“Why would I feel regret for a toy? I’ll just get another one if I grow tired of my current one. I’ll never let a woman control my emotions.”
“I hope you still feel the same way after three years.”
Love was something that would trap someone in its grasp before they realized it, and it would be too late to break free by then.
The more clear-minded they were, the more deeply they would fall in love, and the more it would hurt.
“Alright, what about the person I asked you to investigate? My son is still with him.”
“Investigate? I don’t even know what he looks like. How am I supposed to look into him?”
Henry rolled his eyes at Hunter.
Then, he added, “But I did get some information. The person used to be a member of The Black Ravens.
“He is an S-rank assassin. His codename was Shadowhawk”
Hunter was dumbfounded. “He’s a member of The Black Ravens?”
“He’s a deserter, to be precise. He ran away from the organization two years ago. He’s currently wanted by The Black Ravens.
“So, he’s been running around and evading The Black Ravens. Finding him will not be an easy task.”
Henry poured himself another glass of wine.
“I’ve already told my brother about this. He’ll also keep an eye out. He’ll let you know if he finds anything.
“What are you going to do next? Do you plan to follow behind a woman for the rest of your life?”
“Madie is different.
Hunter ran his fingers over the photos. One of them had most of her face on display. He looked at the photo affectionately.
“I’ve experienced the pain of losing her too many times. Now, I just want to keep her safe.”
“Man, you’ve put yourself in such a pathetic position in this relationship. You’re not the man you used to be.” Henry sneered.
“You better not fall in love then.” Hunter chuckled before he noticed something. “This photo…”
“What’s wrong with it?”
Hunter picked out two more photos from the pile. Both had Madison in the front and center, but Hunter pointed at two people in the photos.
“It’s the same person!”
Henry compared the photos closely.
The person’s clothes and appearance were different in the two photos, but the person’s figure and the way they held items with their left hand were identical.
No one would notice such minute similarities in photos, but people like Hunter had extraordinarily sharp senses,
Both of them noticed the problem almost immediately.
“Where’s the film?”
“I’ll have someone send it over right away.”
“Where’s Madie?”
“Don’t worry. She followed me to the bar. She was right outside when I came in. I had my bodyguards keep an eye on her
In the past few days that Madison had been tailing Henry, Hunter didn’t want his men to be found out.
So, he asked Henry to have his men watch over her.
Henry was always at the same places every day. Nothing could possibly go wrong. But Hunter noticed something wrong with the photos.
Someone was tailing Madison. The person was clearly scouting out the locations.
Madison followed Henry to the bar. She intended to get a grasp on his daily routine so she could come up with the best plan to save Everly.
She didn’t like bars because all sorts of sketchy people were in these places, even if it was the most opulent bar in the city.
The high-class places had even more dubious activities than the regular bars.
Madison wore a thick down jacket and a furry hat. She even covered most of her face with her scarf.
The other patrons of the bar scoffed at her attire
Madison tried to push through the crowd to get closer to Henry. She wanted to know who he was here to meet.
She also wanted to see if he led a decadent life or if he was cheating on Everly.
