Daddy, Mommy had been in Prison novel Chapter 488

It was an anonymous number.

After Georgia connected, the other end of the line registered an eerie, processed male voice.

“An anonymous warning, Miss Lane. Somebody’s targeting you. Don’t leave your door randomly right now.”

Then the line went dead. Georgia looked at Robert, uneasy and suspicious.

“Do you think they have good or bad intentions?”

Robert’s face grew heavy.

“Just then when you said you wanted to go out tomorrow, my instincts didn’t feel good about it. I had a feeling of danger.

“We can be sure that someone’s targeting us, but we have bodyguards by our side and we’re always careful going out. If they wanted to do something, they couldn’t succeed so easily. I just said we’re going to go out together and bring Mr. Poole’s gift to his friend, so is the call warning me not to go out and give the gift, or something else?”

The anonymous call rattled Georgia’s nerves, and Robert couldn’t make a judgement call either.

The two called Wilson and Ivan over and explained what had just happened.

“Do you have any plans tomorrow?”

Wilson asked directly.

“We’d been planning on going out tomorrow because I’d promised Vincent Poole to bring his gift to his friend. I hadn’t told his friend yet. Even if there’s a plot in this, both Vincent Poole and his friend shouldn’t know what time I’m planning on giving the gift. I just chatted with Robert about it and there’s no way others could know, so that shouldn’t be it.”

“I’d been planning on going out tomorrow to the biopharmaceutical firm that we bought up. I went and inspected them today and had go through a brief meeting to summarize. They’re bringing up all the accounts tomorrow, because headquarters found something wrong with their accounting. I’m making them rearrange it and submit it. Someone’s messing around, but I haven’t found who it is yet. I also haven’t said anything about punishing the people in the company, and it doesn’t make sense for our opponents to move so quickly.”

The two spoke up about their plans tomorrow. Wilson drummed his fingers on the desk and fell quiet.

Ivan, though, spoke.

“If they feel like going out is dangerous and came to warn you, why didn’t they speak out about who the culprit is?

“They just reminded you not to go out, but you couldn’t stay indoors forever. They didn’t speak up about which day it is. An inexplicable word like that – I can’t figure out their meaning.”

The anonymous call had everyone in a conundrum. Robert even sent bodyguards to check the mansion they were living in to see if there was any potential danger.

In other words, if they were telling them not to go out and if it was malicious, that meant that staying was the dangerous option.

If it was well-intentioned, that meant that their enemies were ready to strike after going out.

But the tricky part was that they couldn’t tell which it was.

Just as they were still in the conundrum, Georgia received a call from Mr. Smythe, Linus’ man.

“You’re calling late, Mr. Smythe. Are the hospital results out?”

Georgia said that, while Mr. Smythe replied.

“The results are indeed out, Miss Lane. It proves that Wesley and Lucas are the same person.”

At that, Georgia was a bit shocked, but also found it reasonable.
