Chapter 402

Chapter 402 Can’t Hide His Doting and Love When Cecelia entered the room and saw the look in Chris’s eyes, she knew that he must have said something negative about her in front of Alfred.

“Great-uncle, Fourth Great-aunt and I are back.”

Cecelia greeted, and Anisa asked, “What’s wrong, Alfred? You don’t look too good.”

“I’m fine, just discussing something with Chris.”

Alfred didn’t want to bother her with his troubles, so he instructed Johnson, “Chris, escort Madam Anisa back to the courtyard to rest.”

“Yes!” Johnson escorted Anisa out of the living room.

Only the three of them remained in the living room. Alfred stared at Cecelia and asked, “Cecelia, tell me the truth. Did you plan the incident involving Warda?”

“How could I have planned something against Warda? Great-uncle, who told you such nonsense?”

Cecelia pretended not to understand.

Chris couldn’t bear it anymore and pointed at Cecelia. “Cecelia! You still won’t admit it? It was clearly you who arranged for Warda to meet at the hotel, and you opened the hotel room door for him.

However, when he went in, the woman inside was replaced by Rosa. If it weren’t for your deliberate scheme, how could Warda have fallen for it?”

Chris heard the whole story from his son and believed that his son wouldn’t make the same mistake twice. The only possibility was that Cecelia had set a trap!

“Uncle Chris, as the saying goes, one should accuse with factual evidence. You suspect that I set a trap, so do you have any evidence?”

Cecelia remained composed and questioned him, “Do you really believe that Warda is innocent based solely on his words? As his father, you should know best what kind of person he is, right?”

“You… You’re just making excuses!”

Chris was getting frustrated. “Warda said that you called him and asked him to meet at the hotel.”

“Great! Since he claims that I called him, then please provide evidence, Uncle Chris! You can request the communication company to provide Warda’s call records and check if my phone number is on there!”

Cecelia and Chris were at a stalemate. Chris angrily said, “Fine! Just wait! I will order someone to investigate right now!”

Chris immediately called his assistant and asked him to investigate the number at the communication company.

After about ten minutes, the assistant called back, “Mr. Songo, we have checked Mr. Warda’s call records, and we didn’t find Miss Linsey’s name or number in the two days before the incident.”

“Are you sure? Did you check thoroughly?”

“We checked very thoroughly, and nothing was missed!”

After hanging up the phone, Cecelia coldly snorted and said, “So? Uncle Chris! Did you find any evidence?”

Chris’s face darkened. “Not finding your number doesn’t mean you didn’t use another number to contact him. You should explain why you appeared at the hotel that night. This is something you can’t argue against. Not only did Warda see you, but even two policemen also noticed you!”

Cecelia admitted it calmly. “I was having a date with my boyfriend. Is that not allowed?”

“What boyfriend?”

“Remington is my current boyfriend. If you’ve been following the news in the Cathail Republic, you should know that he recently proposed to me.”

“You mean your ex-husband, Remington?”

“That’s right. He was in Bemanko on business that night and stopped by to see me. We spent the night at the hotel. Do you want me to call him here so that you can confront him?”

“I don’t believe it! Call him!”

Chris stared at her suspiciously, feeling that she was deliberately making excuses.

If Remington could appear in front of his eyes within an hour, he would believe what she said was true.

Cecelia exchanged glances with Chris and looked at Alfred. “Great-uncle, do you think I should invite Remington here?”

Alfred didn’t really believe what Cecelia said earlier. “It’s best to have him come and clarify things.”

“Okay then!”

Cecelia immediately called Remington, “Darling, I have encountered some trouble. Can you come to the Songo family and meet Great-uncle and Uncle Chris?”

After receiving a positive response, Cecelia said “Okay, good” and hung up the phone. She explained to Alfred and Chris, “He happens to be nearby and can come over soon.”

After about ten minutes, a servant came to report, “Master, sir, someone who claims to be Mr.

Remington Nelson, the CEO of Sierra International, is outside the main gate. Shall I let him in?”

“Yes!”

After the news spread, everyone waited for a moment and saw Johnson leading a group of people walking from a distance.

Winger and Fredric, the two assistants, walked in front, followed closely by Remington with several bodyguards surrounding him, appearing calm and composed.

As they said, clothes made the man. When Remington disguised himself as a bodyguard, he was unnoticed by anyone due to his ordinary appearance and attire.

But at this moment, he was wearing a custom-made high-end suit, paired with fitted trousers and expensive leather shoes. The details showcased his taste, and he had a handsome face and distinguished temperament.

When he walked into the Songo family’s courtyard, he attracted the attention of the passing servants.

Everyone was curious about who he was.

Mariah in the courtyard immediately noticed the outstanding man and was instantly intrigued. She curiously asked, “Who is that man?”

No one knew, but as they saw the man walking towards the living room, Mariah couldn’t resist her curiosity and followed to see what was happening.

“Mr. Nelson, please!”

At the entrance of the living room, Johnson respectfully invited them in.

Fredric and Winger led the group to stay automatically on both sides of the door, while Remington walked into the living room with a broad and steady stride.

When Alfred and Chris in the room saw the tall and imposing man walking in, they both stood up involuntarily.

Remington approached the front of the hall and first glanced at Cecelia. Then he looked at Chris and Alfred. “Mr. Songo, Master Songo, I’m sorry that my first visit is so hasty!”

Chris had nothing to say. Remington’s quick appearance directly proved that what Cecelia said was not an excuse.

Remington was an honored guest, so Alfred naturally treated him with respect. “Mr. Nelson, please take a seat! Tea will be served!”

Remington walked directly to Cecelia’s side and sat down, holding her hand as if declaring his sovereignty.

Outside the living room, Mariah witnessed this scene and finally knew that the handsome and extraordinary man was Remington, the leader of Sierra International.

He looked even more handsome in person than on television.

Seeing Remington in person, she realized that her husband was completely incomparable!

Especially Remington’s doting and affection towards Cecelia was enough to make her envy and go crazy.

Why did Cecelia have such good luck to meet such an excellent man?

Life was unfair!

Remington’s intimidating gaze fell on the two men in the hall, his voice cold and stern as he questioned, “You called me here in haste to confront me face to face. I want to ask both of you. What has involved my girlfriend? What trouble has she encountered that requires such a commotion?”
