Chapter 805 Coercion
His eyes burned as he looked at her, but then he squinted and casually asked, "How exactly did the car accident happen today? Just thinking about the two kids almost getting hurt makes me really worried."
Winnie's heart trembled; he was such a good actor.
She took a deep breath and angrily said, "Don't even mention it. That deaf driver was playing with his phone while driving, didn't see the traffic light, and crashed right into us. However, the police investigation has some discrepancies. Lawrence suspects that the driver isn't just an ordinary driver. A few days ago, he suddenly sent his son to study abroad, which seems like he was bribed."
Rock's hands tightened on the steering wheel. He didn't expect Lawrence to investigate so quickly and even report it to the police.
He squinted his eyes and sighed, "Winnie, Lawrence has too many enemies. This must be one of his old enemies trying to harm him. Why don't you bring Sidney and Oscar to stay at our house? I can help take care of them."
Winnie's eyes were cold, and she forced a bitter smile, "I would love to, but Lawrence would never agree to it. He's so stubborn. Besides, even though the Rodriguez Family has fallen on hard times, fighting a lawsuit is not easy."
"As long as you agree, I'll help you find a lawyer," Rock said tenderly, holding her hand.
"Okay, I'll think about it," Winnie replied evasively.
The corners of Rock's mouth curved slightly deeper. He lifted her hand to his lips and kissed it, feeling quite pleased. "It's still early, Winnie. How about we go back and have a candlelight dinner later?"
His tone grew warmer, and his gaze became darker as he looked at her.
Winnie froze. Her current compliance must have given Rock the wrong impression. She knew exactly what he wanted to do next.
Feeling anxious, Winnie took a deep breath and looked out the window.
Her phone in her pocket kept vibrating. She glanced at it out of the corner of her eye; it was all messages from Lawrence.
Not wanting Rock to notice, she quickly put it on silent.
But the screen still lit up and dimmed repeatedly.
At that moment, the car arrived at the villa. She saw a fresh food supermarket and immediately found an excuse, "Rock, you go home first. I'll get off to buy some vegetables. Do you need anything else?"
"Yeah, get some broccoli for garnish," Rock said, his lips curling slightly as he ruffled her hair. "Come back quickly."
"Okay."
After getting out of the car, Winnie immediately found a secluded spot under a tree and took out her phone.
Sure enough, Lawrence had sent her dozens of voice messages.
Winnie opened the first one, and it was Sidney's tearful complaint, "Mommy, why did you leave us and go back to that bad man Rock? I'm mad at you! Daddy says it's dangerous for you to stay with Rock. You need to come to us quickly!"
Listening to Sidney's aggrieved cries, Winnie felt a deep sense of guilt.
Lawrence said, "It's not just Sidney; Oscar is also very upset with you this time. I can't calm either of them down."
"They both need you, and I miss you too, Winnie."
"Why are you still ignoring me?"
Winnie remained silent.
She didn't want to listen anymore.
Lawrence's tone turned cold with resentment, "I told you so much today, and you acted like you didn't hear any of it, didn't you? Why won't you divorce Rock?"
"I don't believe you consider his home your own, and you don't care about your sons anymore. Are you staying with him to find evidence that he harmed the kids?"
Winnie took a deep breath.
Lawrence continued to express his concern, "You need to come back to me immediately! Winnie, do you know what will happen to you if he finds out? Be good!"
Winnie had to admit, Lawrence was always sharp and perceptive.
But he missed one point: she stayed not only to find evidence that Rock harmed the kids but also to find out Olivia's whereabouts. Olivia had been missing for almost a month, and she couldn't wait any longer.
If Olivia was also harmed by Rock, she would definitely seek revenge. If anything happened to Olivia, she would send Rock to prison.
Winnie clenched her hand coldly, her heart racing. She immediately made a call to Zachary, "Zachary, is it convenient for you to talk?"
"Yes, Ms. Anderson. I just left Mr. Jenkins' company. Please go ahead."
"I want to search Rock's villa as soon as possible to see if I can find anything. But last time, we detected that his villa is full of surveillance cameras. How can we temporarily disable the cameras without him noticing, so I can take action?"
"There's a way. If we cut off the network in that area, the cameras will naturally go offline," Zachary said.
"Do you have a way to disrupt the network in a specific area?"
"Just cut off the power grid in that villa area for a short time."
Right, no power meant no network.
Winnie nodded slightly, "Let's do that. Start looking for the control system of the power grid in that area. I'll go back and check Rock's schedule for the next couple of days. As soon as he's not around, we'll take action. I don't want to delay any longer."
The car accident involving the kids made Winnie realize that Bentley was right.
Staying by Rock's side was too dangerous. He had no limits.
If, as Lawrence said, he really found out, she wouldn't be able to defend herself against him.
Moreover, Rock's gaze today was increasingly filled with undisguised desire.
After arranging everything, Winnie bought the broccoli and returned to the villa as if nothing had happened.
Rock had prepared a delicate dinner, lit candles, and gently pulled her to the dining table.
Winnie was about to sit on a chair next to him when Rock's large hand grabbed her slender waist and pulled her onto his lap.
The sudden warmth of Rock's body and the touch of his palm made Winnie shiver.
Looking at Rock's elegant and handsome face, Winnie couldn't help but recall the perverse scenes of him with his female secretary in the office.
She couldn't help but feel a wave of nausea and forced a smile, "Rock, aren't we going to eat? What are you doing?"
"Isn't it obvious what I'm doing?" Rock said with a charming smile, his eyes deep and passionate. "Winnie, I miss you."
"I'm right here with you," Winnie pretended not to understand and pushed him away.
"I mean that kind of missing," Rock said more bluntly, his gaze burning, his hand tightening around her waist. "Winnie, how much longer are you going to make me wait? Since you forgave me last time and we decided to live well together, you will have to make love with me eventually."
He actually said that.
During this time, Zachary had been monitoring his office. Rock had a lot of energy and played 'whip games' with that female secretary almost every day. Wasn't that enough for him?
And now he wanted her?
Just thinking about it gave Winnie goosebumps and made her stomach churn. She turned her head slightly, just as Rock tried to hold her chin and kiss her.
Winnie instinctively dodged.
He saw her natural resistance, just like before!
Rock's face instantly darkened, "You still don't want me to touch you?"
The shadow on his gentle face reminded Winnie of the last time he hit her, and she couldn't help but feel terrified.
She quickly tried to get off his lap.
Unexpectedly, Rock held her waist tightly!
