Chapter 885 Fireworks Festival
Brent furrowed his brows, "It's not that I won't let you go, but you're also restricted from leaving the country! You should just stay here and cooperate with the investigation with me!"
Sophia looked shocked again, "What? What does this have to do with me? Why am I also restricted from leaving the country?"
Brent took a deep drag of his cigarette, "Have you forgotten? Three years ago, you returned to the country for Alex and managed a few companies here. Some of the financial and tax issues occurred during your management period, so you also need to stay and cooperate with the investigation!"
Sophia frowned. How could this be happening?
If she was restricted from leaving the country, it meant she couldn't take Trevor away immediately. What if Katherine came to take him during this time?
Sophia's sense of foreboding grew stronger, and she also began to suspect the sudden incident at Brent's company. This was too much of a coincidence, wasn't it?
Back in the room, Trevor closed the door, got up from his wheelchair, took off his jacket, and threw it on the bed.
He was in a bad mood, ever since he saw Katherine.
Why was Katherine at that scenic spot with Jonathan? Did they really need to go sightseeing together?
This confusion and displeasure felt like a lump in Trevor's chest.
Julian stood by, looking up at Trevor's tall figure with admiration and amazement, "Daddy, you're so tall! Will I be as tall as you when I grow up?"
Looking down at Julian, Trevor could see a bit of Katherine in his face. He reached out and ruffled Julian's hair, "If you want to grow tall, you need to eat well."
Julian nodded and blinked his big eyes, asking, "Daddy, are you in a bad mood?"
Julian thought to himself, 'Is my mood that obvious? Even Julian could tell.'
Seeing Trevor not respond, Julian felt he had guessed right.
Although Trevor usually had a stoic expression, when he was in a bad mood, his whole aura would change. Outsiders might not notice, but Julian could.
"Daddy, ever since you saw Mommy, you seem to be in a bad mood. Is it because you're upset that there's another handsome guy with her?"
Julian's accurate guess hit the mark, and Trevor squinted his eyes, glaring at Julian, "You think that guy is handsome?"
Julian was stunned for a moment, then suddenly found the emotional and somewhat childish Trevor very cute and funny, covering his mouth to stifle a laugh.
Seeing Julian trying to hold back a mischievous smile, Trevor became even more displeased, "What's so funny?"
Julian couldn't hold it in anymore and burst out laughing, "Daddy, you look so funny when you're jealous!"
After laughing enough, Julian seriously said to Trevor, "Daddy, you don't need to be jealous! Mommy isn't interested in that guy at all. I saw it when I was with her; she doesn't care about him."
Hearing this, Trevor felt slightly better, but his mood was still sour, "If she's not interested, why go sightseeing with him?"
Julian didn't know the specifics, but he believed Katherine wasn't the type to easily accept another man's advances.
"Daddy, if you have doubts, why don't you ask her? You can contact her, right?"
Trevor was silent. He could contact Katherine, but he was in a bad mood and didn't want to.
He had seen the message Katherine sent him, but since she only asked where they were and didn't explain why she was with Jonathan, he didn't reply.
Why not explain? Wasn't she afraid he'd misunderstand?
Or did Katherine not care if he misunderstood?
The more he thought about it, the more frustrated he became!
Three years, he had been trapped for over three years! He couldn't imagine how many men had approached her during those three years, harboring inappropriate thoughts!
Just thinking about it made him uncontrollably irritable.
At this moment, Julian handed him the phone, "Daddy, you obviously care a lot, so just ask her. Don't keep brooding over it and lose sleep!"
Trevor looked at Julian, then down at the phone.
Julian urged, "Daddy, hurry up! Otherwise, Sophia will come back soon, and you won't be able to contact Mommy!"
Thinking of this, Trevor took the phone, paused for a few seconds, and sent a video call to Katherine using an encrypted method.
The video call rang for a while before it was answered.
The picture and sound on the other end were chaotic.
After the phone stopped shaking, the camera focused on Katherine's face.
Katherine looked at the serious Trevor in the camera and raised an eyebrow, "You finally have time to reply to my message!"
Trevor looked at her coldly, "Where are you? Haven't gone back yet?"
'Still with Jonathan? They seemed to get along well, having so much to talk about,' he snorted inwardly.
Katherine used her phone to show him the surroundings, which were crowded and lively, with many cartoon characters parading. "We're outside! See? Guess where this is?"
Trevor's eyes darkened, "You even went to an amusement park together?"
Trevor was so angry he clenched his fists. Damn it! He had never even taken Katherine to an amusement park!
Why did Jonathan get to go with her? Jonathan had always liked Katherine, damn it!
Katherine nodded, "Yes! Today is a special occasion, so I brought them to the amusement park! We're planning to stay until the evening to watch the fireworks show! They haven't seen it before!"
'Watching fireworks together? How romantic! Katherine is my wife; why is she watching fireworks with Jonathan?'
Trevor's face remained expressionless, but he was already furious inside!
At this moment, Julian heard what Katherine said and jumped onto the bed, standing on tiptoe to look at the phone, "Mommy, I haven't seen a fireworks show either. I really want to watch it with you guys!"
Seeing pitiful Julian, Katherine felt extremely conflicted, "Julian, it's okay! Next time, when you and your daddy come back, I'll take you to see the biggest fireworks show! I promise, okay? Now, you have to be good and listen to your daddy."
