Mr. Hamilton's eyes swept over several people with a grim face, and nodded to Edward.
After years of getting along with each other, the tacit understanding between Edward and Mr. Hamilton made Edward understood Mr. Hamilton’s intention immediately.
Edward waved at those who were standing up. "You guys come with me."
Those people shivered unconsciously with fear, but they still followed Edward towards a hidden room.
Mr. Hamilton took a little breath and went to his study. Suddenly, as if something occurred to him, his face suddenly changed.
But after a second thought, he thought it was impossible. He waited for Edward for a while patiently before he came out.
Mr. Hamilton looked at Edward with a glimmer of hope in his eyes. Edward shook his head calmly, "It cannot be them."
Since these people had served the family throughout their lifetime, he was reluctant to suspect them. But this was a big deal. His reaction gave him a slight relief. However, Mr. Hamilton got tense again soon after.
He did not want to doubt those men working for his family, much less did he want to suspect his own family members.
It was just...
"Let someone check the Pine garden to see what's been Mr. Hamilton there today." Mr. Hamilton said with his solemn face. It sounded like he was about to lose his temper.
Edward was stunned by his words, was Mr. Hamilton suspicious of Vivian?
But today other than the cleaning people, it was only Vivian who went into Mr. Hamilton’s study.
Then he suddenly recalled that she did have come into the front hall for the second time in the afternoon, and it seemed that she was looking around for some reason. At that time, he thought she just came back from the guest room. But what if she did something in the front hall?
"Are you suspecting Vivian?" "He asked with a confirmed tone.
Mr. Hamilton’s face blackened, and there was a bit of coldness in his eyes which resembled William’s.
"Anyone can be suspected."
Edward paused, "But Vivian hasn’t been out all day long. She only talked with Miss Angie in the guest room. If this is really stolen by Vivian, then that thing should still be here, I could ask someone to check."
Edward meant to search Vivian’s room.
But it was Mr. Hamilton who personally invited her to come back, searching her room right now was not only the disrespect for William, but also a slap in Mr. Hamilton’s face.
Mr. Hamilton hesitated and slightly inclined his head.
Edward thought about yesterday, as Vivian just went to Angie and made a scene with her. And today she was threatened by Mr. Hamilton. Even if she did do something bad, it could be understood.
Edward worried this could be true. So he went to the Green Pine Garden with some people in a grim face.
At night, Roe held a small pillow and went to Vivian’s room to sleep. William knew Daniel was in J city, so he went out to investigate him.
Vivian finally could enjoy Roe’s company.
“Mom, you haven't read me anything for a long time.” Roe’s little chubby arms held Vivian, with dissatisfaction in his face. Vivian paused. Yes, it was true.
After she found out she was pregnant, she had been resting a lot. Apart from that, she was always depressed by her problems with William. She felt she did owe Roe a lot.
She opened the story book in her hand only to find the book was written in both Chinese and English language, and the Lu's family collection of book was marvelous indeed.
"This story is about..."
"Vivian, the housekeeper Edward is here." Vivian was interrupted by a knock on the door outside.
