Chapter 203 Orlando Is Dead
Viola frowned. “What happened tolim?”
“Mr. Caffrey … is gone…”
Viola froze on the spot.
Gone?
The night before yesterday, he was chatting with her all night and telling her stories. She slept through the night, and he was gone?
Viola didn’t believe it at all. “What do you mean? What’s he up to this time?”
Jimmy’s voice became more and more choked.
“Nell said that the man in black planned to kill you last night. And Mr. Caffrey found out the man’s plan in advance. Mr. Caffrey asked Nell to hide it from you and went alone to help you kill those people, but he didn’t … didn’t come back…”
Viola stumbled back, her expression gradually changing from shock to sneer.
“That’s impossible! I don’t believe it. An asshole like him wouldn’t die so easily!”
Jimmy didn’t reply. Seeing that Viola still didn’t believe him, he couldn’t hold back his tears anymore. He cried.
Viola scolded, “Stop crying! You’re a grown man! Stop crying like a baby! If you don’t stop crying, I’ll dock your salary for six months!”
Hearing that, Jimmy cried even harder.
“Ms. Falcon, Mr. Caffrey was such a good person. He died young. And you threatened to dock my salary! How miserable am 1! I just can’t stop crying!”
LLO

IT I
Jimmy was about 6 feet tall. And now, lie was crying so hard that his shoulders were shaking. He looked so miserable, and his eyes were red.
She took a deep breath and said in an indifferent tone, “He didn’t come back. That didn’t mean anything. Send people out to find him. If he’s dead, I want to see his body.”
“Ms. Falcon! Ms. Falcon!”
Get By Toby hurried over to her room. “Todd called, hoping that you could return as soon as you were done. He said Mr. Caffrey is waiting for you at Bay Villa!”
“Mr. Caffrey is not dead? He went back? Did he get hurt last night?” Jimmy sniffed in surprise.
Viola didn’t say anything. She looked at Toby, waiting for his answer.
Toby shook his head. “I don’t know. That was all Todd said. But since Mr. Caffrey is waiting for Ms. Falcon at Bay Villa, I think nothing serious has happened to him.”
Viola and Jimmy heaved sighs of relief..
“Pack up the things and book the earliest flight available. We will return to Washington as soon as possible.”
She wanted to know what exactly Orlando and Nell were up to!
“Yes, Ms. Falcon.”
They moved quickly and took the earliest plane of the day back to Washington.
By the time they got back to Bay Villa, it was nearly evening.
It was winter, and the sky was always gloomy as if heavy rain would pour at any time.
The wind was chilly, but it could not stop Viola.
She entered the villa area and didn’t find Nell there. The whole villa was quiet.
Viola was baffled and quickly opened the door to the villa.
The cold air from the open windows blew on her face. The lights were off, and she didn’t see the figure in the kitchen that came out to greet her and hand her slippers every day.
“Orlando?”
Viola shouted, but no one responded.
She looked around the living room and found a note on the coat rack.
It wrote: “It’s getting cold these days. Keep warm and wear enough clothes even if you’re indoors. You have a good figure. You’re still stunning wrapped in a huge jacket.”

Viola had a solemn expression on her face. She lifted her head and shouted, “Orlando!
What the hell?”
She heard nothing but silence.
