“I’m helping Eustace.He’s my best friend.I wouldn’t just sit back and watch if something happened to him.”
However, his abilities were limited.He didn’t have many lackeys in Bardoff City.He had no other reason to tell Danika all this.
Aren’t you angry that Eustace didn’t help you when I took Stephanie away from you?”
Danika was curious to know how Paul’s mind worked.
“It doesn’t matter if I’m mad. He’s my best friend. I will not sit back and do nothing.”
He could be mad at Eustace for not helping him before, but that didn’t change the fact that he wanted to rescue him.It made Danika look at him a little differently.Maybe he wasn’t all that bad.
She nodded.
“Alright.I’ll investigate once I get back.You’ll have to hold down the fort in Parrington.”
“Alright.”
Paul nodded.He watched her leave.
Then, he said, “Take care of Stephanie.I’ll be in Bardoff City as soon as I can.”
Danika’s back stiffened.She didn’t think that was a good thing.She left, but Paul still stood on the cliff.
He looked at the raging waters below.
“I hope you got the right person, Eustace.”
He sincerely hoped that Danika would find a lead.His instincts told him that Eustace’s disappearance definitely had something to do with Danika.
It could even be the Zellwegers’ doing.
They would want to prevent them from being together.
If that really were the case, Danika’s decisions would be critical.
Danika had no idea that Paul was suspicious of the Zellwegers.She believed in Graham.She wouldn’t think that he would commit such a heinous act.Her suspicions were cast on the Glasses.
Right now, they were the likeliest to do such a thing.
With this thought in mind, she booked a flight back to Bardoff City.
But before that, she visited the hospital to see Old Mr.Quincey.
He looked even frailer than before, probably because of Eustace’s disappearance.
Danika was worried.
“Grandpa.”
“You’re here.Sit down, Danika,”
Old Mr.Quincey said.He did his best to smile but failed.
“I’m going back to Bardoff City, Grandpa,” Danika said.
Old Mr.Quincey’s hand paused midair.
“Are you giving up on Eustace too?”
Complications
Danika knew he had misunderstood, so she hurried to explain.
“No, Grandpa.I’m not giving up on him.”
She then told him about Paul’s suspicions.
“I want to head back to Bardoff City to investigate.If Eustace was really kidnapped, he might be waiting for us to save him right now.”
She wouldn’t find any clues staying in Parrington, so she might as well head back to Bardoff City.She might found out something.
Old Mr.Quincey knew he had misunderstood her.
“That makes sense.I’m sorry for the misunderstanding.”
“It’s alright, Grandpa.” Danika smiled.
She didn’t mind.
“I will definitely find Eustace, so you must take care of yourself.”
“Alright.You may go.I believe in you.”
He smiled at her, feeling warmth in his heart.
Although Danika had not yet agreed to be Eustace’s girlfriend, her attitude showed that she liked him.
No matter what, his grandson’s efforts were not in vain.
After a simple conversation with him, Danika immediately rushed to the airport.
She couldn’t meddle in Quincey Group’s affairs.
However, both Vincent and Paul were around.
Quincey Group would not be thrown into turmoil.
It was best if she went to investigate the Glasses at once.
Meanwhile, in a private villa somewhere in Bardoff City, a strikingly beautiful woman walked into a room.
A person lay on the bed with various machines next to him.
It was just like those in a hospital.
The woman looked at the doctor standing nearby.
“When will he wake up?”
“The damage on his brain is too serious.It’s hard to tell,” the doctor replied.
Then, he shared his analysis.
“Based on his current situation, even if he wakes up, the damage in his brain might cause him to experience a few…complications.” She frowned.
“Complications? Like what?”
“He might lose his memories.He might not even wake up,” the doctor replied.
“But these are all just my speculations.He might turn out fine.”
“Amnesia?”
The woman frowned as if she had not expected it.But quickly, she thought of something and smiled.
“Proceed with the treatment.You must save him.”
Following that, she turned and left, walking into the living room.
“Are those people’s backgrounds investigated?”
The woman looked at the bodyguard clad in black, standing not far off.
“Yes, miss.They are from the Quincey family,” the bodyguard replied.
It shocked the calm woman.She looked back at the room.
“The Quinceys?”
“Yes.”
“Why would it be them? Why would they want to target him? He shouldn’t even be in contact with him.”If so, they merely shared the same name.But there were many people on the planet with the same name.Not everyone was related to those Quinceys.Her instincts told her that things were not as simple as they seemed.
“Keep on investigating.Get to the bottom of this.Why would the Quinceys attack him so suddenly? There must be a reason behind all this.It might be very important.”
The bodyguard nodded and left.She sat on the sofa, thinking.
Danika rushed straight to Zellweger Inc once she got off the plane.But she was not there to work.She was there to talk to Graham.She wanted to know if the Glasses were acting suspiciously lately, and Graham was her best bet.
Only he had the power to do this.
“You’re back, Danika.”
Graham did not think it was unusual when Danika walked into his office.He didn’t even ask her where she had gone.
“I have something to ask you,”she said.
Even though she did not think Graham would do something like that, she had to be sure.Otherwise, it would eat at her conscience.
