Chapter 800 Teach Him a Lesson
"There's someone behind you!" Irene coldly warned before quickly ending the video call.
Adam immediately furrowed his brows, slammed his laptop shut, and turned around, his sharp gaze landing on Rock. "Mr. Harrington, why are you back?"
Rock steadied his chaotic thoughts and quickly put on a graceful smile as if he hadn't seen anything. "Oh, Mr. King, it's nothing. Are you still busy? I just remembered a detail in the contract and came back to ask you about it."
Adam replied with a displeased expression, "What's it?"
Rock asked a trivial question and then politely left.
As soon as he exited the business hotel, Irene's face from the video call lingered in his mind.
He stroked his chin, recalling how Adam had shown great respect to Irene, even calling her the chairman. He had heard that there was a big boss behind NexaCore Group. Could it be Irene?
Irene seemed to live abroad.
"Too similar." She looked too much like Winnie.
Rock's sharp eyes narrowed as he thought of something and immediately instructed his confidant, "Go check out Elliott's villa!"
The car quickly arrived at Dazzling Estate.
Rock had the driver park, and through the gate, he saw Elliott pushing a wheelchair out.
The more Rock thought about Winnie's face, the more he felt it overlapped with the Irene from the video call.
He always remembered Winnie saying that her mother had died long ago.
Including the time Elliott returned to seek revenge on Lawrence, believing that Lawrence had killed Winnie's grandfather and mother.
But Irene's appearance was too shocking for Rock.
Adam called that woman Irene?
Rock stared at Elliott, thinking that Elliott probably knew he had hit Winnie. In the past few days, whenever he called Elliott, Elliott would hang up immediately.
If he went down now to ask about Winnie's mother, Elliott would definitely not say a word and would suspect he had ulterior motives!
He pursed his lips in frustration, the urgent need for information gnawing at his heart like ants.
Rock suddenly thought of someone, narrowed his eyes, and quickly made a phone call!
On the other end, Ishara quickly picked up, "Mr. Harrington, ever since we tricked Carlos into signing the authorization contract for the Blanchet Group, you haven't contacted me. I thought you had found a new woman and forgotten about me."
"Come over! I need to ask you something important about Winnie's mother."
Ishara was stunned. "Why are you suddenly interested in this?"
"Naturally, because I've encountered someone interesting. If it's as I think, then Winnie has unimaginable value."
The Blanchet Group seemed insignificant compared to the chairman behind NexaCore Group.
Winnie had not disappointed him.
Rock's lips curled into a cold smile, filled with deep calculation.
Ishara gripped her phone tightly. What did Rock mean by that? What other value did Winnie have?
After work.
Winnie suddenly received a call from Rock. Rock's voice was gentle, "Winnie, are you going to pick up Oscar and Sidney after work? Let's go together. I haven't spent time with the kids in a while. I probably scared Oscar and Sidney last time. Since I have some free time today, I want to apologize to them, have dinner together, and take them to see a children's movie!"
Winnie listened, her heart trembling with fear.
At noon, he had vented his anger on his female secretary, and now he was trying to please her.
Such a Rock was not only hypocritical but also extremely fickle.
Too hypocritical.
Even without Bentley's reminder, she knew she absolutely couldn't let the kids get close to Rock.
She declined, "I'm afraid it's not possible today, Rock. Lawrence is picking up the kids to take them back to the Rodriguez Villa."
"Winnie," Rock sighed in grievance, "are you really going to let the kids recognize the Rodriguez Family? I'm your husband, and what has Lawrence done for Oscar since he was born? He hasn't done anything, yet he can easily claim Oscar. It's unfair to me."
"But Oscar and Sidney want to go to the Rodriguez Villa, and I can't stop them," Winnie said deliberately.
"Forget it, I don't intend to stop them. Then let's go see a movie together. The dessert this afternoon was delicious," Rock switched his tone and enthusiastically invited her.
Perhaps Winnie's visit to the Harrington Group today gave him the impression that she wanted to reconcile with him.
Winnie frowned but agreed for the sake of her undercover mission, "Alright."
After hanging up, Rock leaned back on the leather seat of his car, slowly tugged at his tie, and coldly pondered. A few seconds later, he called his confidant, "Lawrence is picking up the kids from kindergarten today. On the way, teach him a painful lesson! It's okay if someone gets hurt."
Last time at Adam's banquet, Mars didn't manage to kill Lawrence, which was his luck.
The police only injured his reproductive organs.
This time, let Lawrence lose the most important thing. After all, those two kids were obstacles to Rock. To kill Lawrence, he must first break his heart. Would Winnie still forgive him then?
After learning from Ishara that Winnie's mother was named 'Irene Granger,' Rock was in an excited state. He had to make Lawrence pay the price. Once the two kids were dealt with, Winnie would belong to him without any ties.
He had to seize Winnie.
As for those two kids, they shouldn't blame him for being ruthless.
At 5:30 PM.
Lawrence drove to pick up his sons.
On the way, Sidney was in a good mood, playing with a model with Oscar. He found a piece missing and, being a bit spoiled, insisted on stopping to buy a new model when he saw a store of that brand on the street.
Lawrence frowned, treating Sidney much more strictly than Oscar. "It's hard to park at the intersection. I'll have Bryan buy it when we get home."
"Bad dad! I've long suspected you don't love me. Ever since Oscar came back, you've been busy pleasing him and forgotten about me. Yes, I'm just a poor kid. After you brought Oscar back, you divided the little love you had left. Oscar, I'm not trying to push you out; I'm just pushing out bad dad."
Sidney said with red eyes, not forgetting to explain to Oscar.
Oscar was speechless.
Lawrence's handsome face darkened even more. "In the past three years, I've been too lenient with you, Sidney."
"So what? Are you going to punch and kick me, a weak kid who spent half a year in an incubator?" Sidney accused.
Lawrence's big hand almost left the steering wheel to spank his little butt.
Seeing the red light about to change, Sidney muttered, "If you don't buy me that model piece, it means you don't love me."
Oscar couldn't stand it anymore. Recently, Lawrence had indeed been overly pleasing to him, making Sidney a bit unhappy. He glanced lightly, "Lawrence, I think you should get out and buy it."
