Chapter 105

Chapter 105 “Okay, I’ll ask.” Before Sherry could thank him, he hung up. He was at the Jones family mansion with his parents; a tablet on the table displayed photos of numerous women. He stood up, politely addressing his parents, “I have something to do. I have no objection to your plans; just let me know when it’s settled.” He strode out. Steve and Vivian exchanged glances. After their son left, Vivian said, “That sounded like a girl’s voice.” “Don’t get excited just because it was a girl. His tone was cold; it didn’t sound like he liked her.” “Maybe he’ll develop feelings after spending time with her.”

Menu “You said he liked Maria before. You arranged for him to go to Singapore, to give them a chance, and now Maria keeps crying to me.”

“... Maybe our son likes men.” Vivian muttered, close to tears. “I ran into the Luo family boy. He said Evan loves hanging out with him; they spent ten days in Switzerland last winter!”

Steve didn’t understand.“What’s the problem?”

Vivian’s face flushed. “That... that boy... he... he’s... he likes pretty boys, slender and handsome. And... and... you know...”

Steve looked terrified. He pictured his son’s handsome face. His son... with a man? Steve felt a wave of dizziness. Vivian:“Now you understand why I’m so anxious. I don’t care what our daughter–in–law looks like. Just a woman, alive, and someone he likes. Anything is better than...”

Steve clutched his chest.“Stop, stop! I need to rest. My heart...”

Outside, Evan saw Gary looking surprised. He raised a hand to stop him. Evan’s expression was serious. He called someone.

He contacted building management, explaining the situation. They agreed to check the security footage. Then, he called the person protecting me.“Her call dropped in the garage. Go check.”

“Okay,” Cody said, starting his car. “I saw her car go in, about ten minutes ago. I stopped following nearby. There was another idiot who was spotted at the rest stop; Ms. Frost seemed nervous, but that person didn’t enter the complex.”

Evan was silent. He guessed who that idiot was.“Find him!”

He got into his car, Gary closing the door.“Ms. Frost entered the complex; why did she lose contact? Our security is usually very tight.”

“It’s tight for outsiders, not residents. What if he’s a resident?”

“A resident?”

“Julian bought an apartment to access the complex. I gave Cody access; he could enter if he wanted to.” Gary understood.

In the garage, Cody drove in; a black sports car sped toward him, passing by.
