Chapter 275 Martin and Eva Living Together
Alan felt a chill run down his spine under Martin's intense gaze and stammered out,
, "The surveillance team downstairs reported that Frank warned Jade to tell the lady to be careful of Hunter, saying that Hunter is not as simple as he appears on the surface."
Martin remained silent, his mind racing. When did Frank show up? Not long after Hunter returned to Country M. What a coincidence.
When did Frank show up?
It was not long after Hunter returned to M country.
Why such a coincidence?
Hunter leaves, and he arrives?
Alan continued,. "Should I have someone investigate Frank?"
Martin pondered for a moment, then nodded his head.
Alan made a call tocalled his subordinates, instructing them to deliver Frank's information as soon as possibleimmediately.
Martin's slender fingers tapped on the sofa's armrest of the sofa as he stared ahead thoughtfully for a long time before slowly saying, "They all think something happened to Fannie, but Frank still hasn't exposed Hunter. What does that tell us?"
Alan thought hard for a moment and venturedsaid, "Could itHunter be thatblackmailing Frank is being blackmailed by Hunter? He had Jade warn the lady, which shows he still has a conscience. It's clear he's truly heartbroken about Miss Fannie's incident."
Martin spoke in a deep voice,. "If it's blackmail, then it will be difficult to knowextracting the truth from him. will be difficult. Unless..."
Alan picked up where he left off,. "Unless we find that leverage..."
Martin didn't respond but gave him a meaningful look.
"I know what to do." Alan understood and turned to leave.
After watching him go, Martin remained silent for a long while, lost in his own thoughts.
...
The next morning, Alan brought the results of the investigation results.
"Frank has been an orphan since childhood, raised by his grandmother. He's been an outstanding student all his life and was admitted to the youth class of M country'sin a Country M medical university at the age of fifteen. He completed his master's and doctorate degrees in one go and is currently the youngest and most promising cardiothoracic surgery professordoctor. His background is clean, with almost no suspicious areas. But..."
Alan took a deep breath.
Then he continued,. "However, it's strange that our people went to his hometown overnight and couldn't find his grandmother. Neighbors said that Frank had taken her to Country M country to enjoy life not long ago. But we've checked all of Frank's residences and places he's been, and there's no trace of his grandmother. It's as if she disappeared into thin air."
Martin said, "If someone is still alive, they can't disappear into thin air, unless..."
His sharp gaze turned to Alan.
Alan immediately understood and continued,. "Unless someone has hidden her away."
Martin nodded,. "Right, maybe this is his leverage. His only kin, whom he depends on, is being hidden by Hunter, and he has no choice but to listen to Hunter."
Alan asked, "Should we bring him in for a confrontation?"
Martin's gaze was piercing as he looked at him,. "If you were him, would you betray Hunter without being sure of your relative's safety?"
Alan decisively shook his head,. "No."
Martin raised his eyebrows with a hint of a smile,. "So, why do you think he would speak? Bringing him over would just be spooking the snake."
Alan's expression turned somber,. "Then what do we do? With Hunter's capabilities, hiding a person won't be easy to uncover. It might take us a while to find Frank's grandmother. If, in the meantime, he makes a move on Charles, then..."
A chill flashed through the depths of Martin's eyes.
"Instead of sitting ducks, we should take the initiative to force Frank and Hunter to turn on each other."
Alan was puzzled,. "What do you mean, boss?"
Martin's lips curled into a mysterious smile, his eyes as deep as a cold pool, shimmering with an incredible dark light.
"Have someone rescue Frank's grandmother in the shortest time possible, and then..."
Then, using Frank's remaining conscience, force him to show his true colors.
...
Riverside Apartments.
Patricia, who hadn't slept all night, sat on the bed, her eyes red and swollen with dark circles, lookingand she looked exceptionally wilted.
She hesitated on how to tell Martin about the incident, staring at his WhatsApp profile picture on her phone. Since Fannie's incident, she had been too busy searching for Fannie to tell Martin. She couldn't imagine how he would react when he found out. He would surely be furious and heartbroken.
Since Fannie's incident, she had been busy searching for Fannie and hadn't had the chance to tell Martin.
She couldn't imagine how Martin would react when he found out.
He would surely be furious, heartbroken!
As she was debating how to explaindebated explaining the situation to Martin, there was a knock on the door was knocked on, and Charles came in with a bowl of chicken soup noodles.
"Muommy, Jade said you haven't eaten all day,. sShe asked me to bring you something to eat."
Patricia was about to shake her head toand say she had no appetite, but then she remembered the child in her belly and swallowed the words, taking. She took the chicken soup noodles from Charles and eatingate slowly.
Charles's eyes were still red,; his crying had caused his eyesthem to become severely dry.
To prevent Muommy from continuing to be sad and to help her recover from her grief, he smiled and said, "Muommy, later, Jade will take me to kindergarten to handle the enrollment procedures. Take good care of yourself and don't be sad anymore. Fannie..."
Fannie..."
He choked up at the mention of 'Fannie','Fannie,' his nose tingling, and he. He forcibly held back his tears,. "Fannie in heaven wouldn't want to see you sad."
Patricia knew he was sensible and didn't want him to worry, so she forced a smile,.
"Don't worry, Muommy will take good care of herself. You be a good boy in kindergarten."
"Okay!"
Charles nodded his head.
The room suddenly became very quiet.
Neither of them spoke again.
The, and the atmosphere turned oppressive and heavy.
This was unprecedented.
Ever since Fannie's incident, something washad been quietly changing.
After finishing the chicken soup noodles, Charles took the bowl out and didn't come back inreturn, leaving with Jade instead.
The house was suddenly quiet, leaving Patricia alone.
Her slender fingers repeatedly entered and exited Martin's chat box.
After pondering for a moment, she decisively exited the chat box, changed into her outdoor clothes, and decided to explain the situation to Martin in person.
MartinHowever, he was not at Ellenstein Villa District.
Charlotte, seeing Patricia arrive uninvited, was full of mockery, " Patricia, didn't"Didn't you get together with someone Mr. Miller? ?" Charlotte said, her tone acidic, like a jealous wife. "Why are you looking for Martin again? What, you want to have your cake and eat it too?"
Her tone was acidic, like a jealous wife.
Feeling her hostility, Patricia couldn't be bothered with her and asked directly,
"Where's Martin? Where is he?"
Charlotte replied sarcastically, "Aren't you his ex-wife? How do you not know where he is? Why come and ask me?"
The butler, unable to watch any longer, quickly came over and said, "Sir hasn't been back for a long time!. We don't inquire about his whereabouts. If you want to find sirhim, just give him a call."
Patricia immediately thought of Eva Green.
. Martin hadn't been home these days; could it be that he was living with Eva Green?
A sour taste rose in herPatricia's heart, Patricia. She scoffed at herself, quickly regaining her composure, and while calling Martin, she walked out the door while dialing Martin.
Watching her leave, Charlotte hurried upstairs to call Hunter.
"Patricia just came looking for Martin..."."
