His Versatile Gorgeous Wife (PDF) novel Chapter 1572

Chapter 1572 Refuse To Live In Shame

Lawrence walked toward his desk, took a lighter and a pack of cigarettes out of the drawer, and lit a cigarette only after returning to the window. Not a man who would smoke regularly, he would only do so when he felt troubled.

Half a pack later, he finally sat down and gazed at the family photo on his desk, seemingly having made up his mind.

Knock, knock.

A knock came on the door all of a sudden.

‘‘Come in.’‘

‘‘Ms. Sonia’s kidnappers have died, General Lawrence,’‘ a man reported as he entered.

Lawrence frowned immediately.

‘‘How did they die?’‘

I haven’t even fought back yet. Who could’ve done this?

‘‘We’re not sure yet. All we know is that it was a woman who did it. She had them thrown into a river,’‘ the man answered respectfully.

Lawrence looked grim. And who could this woman be? Why did she feed Sonia’s kidnappers to the fish like that?

His mind brimmed with confusion and suspicion.

Back at the hospital, Harvey was just as muddled.

‘‘You mean it was a woman who instigated the kidnapping?’‘

Sonia nodded. ‘‘She said we swapped purses by accident. I don’t know what was inside hers, but it seemed really important to her.’‘

As a general, Lawrence didn’t usually pick up calls from strangers. But this time, for some reason, he answered his phone right after glancing at his screen.

‘‘Father, this is Sonia. I’m using Harvey’s phone.’‘ Sonia understood her father’s habit of not answering calls from unsaved numbers, so she immediately identified herself.

‘‘Are you feeling better?’‘ Lawrence asked, feeling glad that he didn’t reject the call.

Sonia answered with a brief ‘‘yes’‘ before repeating what Harvey had said to her.

Lawrence couldn’t help but gain a better impression of Harvey. He hadn’t expected the latter to be investigating this matter too.

‘‘All right. I’ll forward any footage I find to this phone.’‘

Meanwhile, another woman felt apprehensive as she spoke into her phone, unaware that she was now being looked into.
