Chapter 267
Chapter 267
Right in front of Kevin, Leo called someone and told them to check if Mavis and her daughter had anyone backing them behind the scenes.
He also asked them to investigate whether anyone around him was acting suspiciously.
He then instructed a trusted cousin from the Hammond family to arrange a paternity test between him and Nicole.
He handed over a strand of his own hair, and had already asked the servants to collect a strand of Nicole’s hair.
Once Leo finished giving orders, Kevin asked, “Dad, are we going home now?”
Leo waved him off. “I’m staying at the office tonight. Not going back.”
He had a private lounge set up in his office.
Honestly, he just really didn’t want to deal with Mavis and her daughter tonight.
Kevin didn’t push it. “Alright.”
Kevin figured that by giving Mavis and her daughter the cold shoulder, his dad was making them restless enough to mess up all on their own.
After thinking for a moment, Leo added, “By the way, all that trouble Mavis’s ex caused- someone’s got to be behind it. Check if it’s Jason or Ally.”
The trending topic couldn’t be taken down, Mavis’s ex-husband’s account couldn’t be banned, and the video just wouldn’t disappear.
There was no way that guy had the power to make all that happen on his own-someone else had to be behind it.
No matter how he thought about it, the only people who came to mind were Jason and Alicia.
Kevin figured it was probably Alicia and Jason behind it. “If it turns out they did it, what are you gonna do, Dad?”
If it really was Alicia, Leo and her brothers couldn’t actually do anything to her.
Honestly, after she exposed Mavis and her daughter for what they really are, Kevin didn’t think Alicia did anything wrong.
Leo was caught off guard by the question.
A wry smile appeared on his face. “Yeah, what can I really do?”

Chapter 267
‘She’s my own daughter-what am I supposed to do, go after her? No way.
‘Honestly, if this whole mess hadn’t blown up, we never would’ve found out what Mavis was really doing,’ he thought.
He waved his hand. “Forget it. Let’s just leave it at that.
“You can go. I want to be alone for a while.”
Kevin stood up. “Alright, Dad. If you need anything, just call me.”
Now that he knew where his dad stood, there was no point in sticking around.
Back in his own office, he set up a three-way call and filled his two younger brothers in on what he’d found out.
He told them to keep their cool and not do anything rash.
Then he gave Jason a call.
When Kevin called, Alicia was hanging out at Jason’s place.
Jason was back in the kitchen today.
