Daddy, Mommy had been in Prison novel Chapter 511

Georgia said, amused, while Robert grabbed his wife’s hands directly.

“I was the one who lost you all that money. I’m guilty about it too. If I don’t make this money back, I feel like I’ll lose sleep over it.”

“Okay then, I’ll leave it to you. I guess staying in bed every day is boring for you too, so here’s something for you to do. So long as you don’t stay up late, it’s fine. No matter what, getting a healthy body is the most important.”

“Aren’t you underestimating me too much? It’s just getting a finance company ready. I’ve got loads of professionals on hand and I just need to point out the general direction. We can run the company when we get back. I’ve got my name and your fame, and a lot of people are going to relax and invest. I’ll turn you into a stock goddess. Trust me.”

“All right.”

Georgia nodded, and that was that.

In the afternoon she went back to the lab to continue with her experiments. The day passed in a flurry of activity.

Just as it was getting dark, Georgia had been planning on going back and having dinner with everyone else, but a ruckus came from outside.

Followed closely by actual gunshots, then the sound of an explosion.

Georgia grew worried in an instant and rushed over to Robert, who was just going out, and the two bumped into each other.

Jason and Ivan arrived as well, and they were all curious as to-

“What happened out there?”

Antonio came over as well, and he spoke to everyone there.

“A group of thugs started having a gunfight out there. It’s strange. This place had good security before. I also saw a fire spreading over. We’re putting it out now. I’ve put people together and called the cops. The situation’s settled down for now. Don’t worry.”

Georgia and Robert nodded.

But when the police came, the thugs were taken in, but all evidence pointed to it being a coincidence, and even the fire seemed to be accidental. There wasn’t much proof as to anything otherwise.

Georgia felt an inexplicable sense of worry. They sat together at night and discussed it, all suspecting if someone was pulling the strings in the dark.

Georgia laid the suspicion straight on Eric.

They didn’t sleep well that night, and early the next morning, there came a ruckus from outside again. This time, it was an even bigger fire spreading over, impossible to control.

Thankfully, there was someone on night shift and everyone evacuated in time, bringing all the precious data they could. What they couldn’t bring, they let burn.

They got in their cars and prepared to leave. There was no helping the fire.

Finally, everyone went straight to a hotel to rest and put people on investigating how the fire had happened. They found that it was manmade.

The perpetrator had been caught, but he only insisted that he was deliberate instead of giving up the names of anyone behind him.

“I’ll bet it’s Eric. He’s taking revenge on us and burning that place down deliberately. Sorry, Antonio, I dragged you into this.”

Georgia apologized to Antonio directly and Robert spoke as well.

“I’m sorry, Antonio. I’ll take on all the losses. I’ll even fund it if you need to build another research facility.”

“It’s fine. I knew it was deliberate from the beginning, and the highest probability was that Eric was behind it. That man gets even for everything. If he can’t take revenge from other methods, he’ll annoy us with all sorts of little troubles. That’s the way he does things.

“The instruments and data left back there weren’t that precious to begin with. I just lost a bit of money, that’s all. Doesn’t bother me that much. But I feel like if you build another facility for me, he’ll come make more trouble. That’s why I’m a little annoyed. His power in this country is ridiculously massive. If I switch a location, I’ll probably just go through the same thing.”

Georgia was even more guilty now, while Riley suddenly spoke up.

Randy’s elbow had been hurt, getting a knife wound then and there. It wasn’t serious, but after going to hospital, he still had to get a plaster cast, and probably would take a few days to recover.

Still, he could get on a plane and fly back, so Randy was planning on going back with them.

One day before they were headed back and three days after the fire, Georgia and Robert were planning on going over to that kingdom to take the children back, then return to the country. The others were bound for a plane headed straight back to the country. But before going to sleep at night, Georgia received an anonymous call.

At that moment, she instinctively panicked.

After it connected, Eric’s voice came over the line right away.

“I hear you’re going back with your husband to your country, Miss Lane. Before you go back, I’d like to give you another gift. Would you like to see it?”

Georgia’s heart sank. Her hands trembled. Were the children all right? They’d only just video called each other.

Seemed like Eric’s body had recovered. She steadied her nerves.

“What gift are you talking about? I’m warning you, Eric, don’t think that I have no way of fighting back against you from here. If you want to take it to the end, you can just try it!”

Eric just chuckled.

“Don’t jump at shadows, Miss Lane. With all you’ve done for me, isn’t it just right for me to give you a little something in return?

“You probably wouldn’t guess what gift it is. Have a listen to this voice. Is it familiar?”

At those words, Georgia heard a shrill scream.

Her face went pale.
