Outside the private room, hearing the footsteps behind her, Violet changed the other hand to hold with Arya, and then turned around and looked at Ivan angrily.
Ivan looked confused, "What's the matter? Why are you so angry?"
He didn't seem to mess with her now?
He just went away almost half an hour ago and made some conflicts for her and her son. Was it possible that she was still angry about this?
"Give Calvin back to me!" Violet pursed her red lips.
Ivan frowned, "What?"
"Don’t play dumb with me. Didn't you take Calvin away? Give Calvin back to me!" Violet clenched her fists emotionally.
Ivan understood now. She was saying that he took her son away.
No wonder there was only a little girl here.
"Sorry, Violet, you may have found the wrong person. I didn't take your son away." Ivan spread his hands.
Violet was taken aback for a moment, "It isn't you?"
"Of course, why should I take your son?" Ivan thought it was funny.
Violet's face turned pale, and she trembled.
Ivan took his hand out of his trouser pocket, trying to support her. But he was late.
Stanley came from another direction and held Violet's shoulders, "Are you okay?"
Smelling the familiar mint fragrance, Violet shook her head, "I'm fine."
"You’re so in time." Ivan looked at Stanley sarcastically.
Stanley ignored him, pursing his own thin lips, "You just said Calvin was taken away, right?"
"Yes, I took Arya to the toilet. But when I came back, Calvin was not there. The cashier told me that it was a man who took Calvin away. I thought it was Director Murphy, so I came up to look for him, but Director Murphy said it was not him. I don't know who to trust now." Violet covered her face, feeling collapsed.
Arya pulled the corner of Violet’s dress, "Mommy, don't cry! Mommy..."
Violet squatted down and hugged Arya, but she was trembling slightly.
Stanley turned his head and stared at Ivan.
Ivan pushed his glasses, "Why are you looking at me? I said it was not me."
Stanley looked away, took out his cell phone and made a call.
Soon, Fraser came.
Stanley pulled Violet up from the ground, "Leave Arya to Fraser. Follow me! I will take you to Calvin."
Hearing this, Violet quickly nodded and handed Arya to Fraser.
"Baby, you obediently listen to Fraser. Mommy and Uncle Murphy are going to find your brother." Violet touched Arya's head and said.
Arya waved her small fists, "Okay, I will be a good girl. Mommy, you must find my brother."
"I will." Violet said with tearful eyes, put her hands down and looked at Stanley, "Mr. Murphy, let's go."
"Wait a minute." Ivan adjusted his tie, "I will go with you guys."
"What?" Stanley frowned.
Ivan smiled slightly, "You all suspect that I took that kid away, so I have to prove my innocence!"
"Mr. Murphy..." Violet subconsciously looked at Stanley and asked for his opinion.
Stanley looked down and thought, and then he nodded slightly, "Let him go. With his participation, Calvin will be found faster."
"Okay." Violet naturally had no objection when she heard him say this.
She didn't care what Ivan's purpose was, as long as it was helpful to find Calvin.
So the group of three rushed to leave the second floor, going to check the restaurant's surveillance first, and see who took Calvin away.
But before they walked to the monitoring room, Violet's cell phone rang.
She was a little impatient with the person who called her at this time, but she still patiently answered, "Who is it?"
