“Married?” Chelsea knitted her brows and chuckled, “How could it be possible? The household register is still retained in my home. When she left at that year, she hadn’t graduated from the university. And she’s only 24 now.”
Viola turned it over in her mind and said meaningfully, “Wasn’t she in a relationship at that time? Why did she suddenly go abroad? Could it be that she went abroad together with her boyfriend? Didn’t you say that she even didn’t finish her university courses?”
Chelsea looked more disdainful when mentioning about this matter, “Her boyfriend back then? Oh you must know him. He’s Kingsley West, the eldest young master of the West Group. He had cheated her with her bestie back then and they wished so much that the whole world would know about their relationship. Only Hayden was kept in the dark. What a fool!”
“Yes? Kingsley West?”
Viola pondered for a while. It seemed that Chelsea didn’t know that her sister Hayden had given birth to a child.
Hayden was still in Nanking six years ago and left the city five years ago. So it could be deduced that the child should be given birth in Nanking. In this way, the child’s father was probably a citizen of Nanking and of course he should not be Kingsley.
After leaving the golf course, Viola, who was sitting in the nanny van, reflected on this matter and gradually felt it weird.
“Jason, I want to investigate into the private affairs of a person that happened five or six years ago. Is there a way to achieve this?”
“Yeah. You can find a private detective.”
“I want to investigate a person.”
“Who?”
“Hayden Downey, the second daughter of the Downey family. If the information I got is right, she went abroad after giving birth to a child in Nanking five years ago. I want to know who the child’s father is.”
Joseph’s attitude towards Hayden was so weird. But Viola didn’t believe that Joseph would treat Hayden so specially just because she had once saved Noah. Anyway, even if others might felt that she was way too suspicious, Viola felt that she would only rest assured after making sure that Hayden didn’t have any relationship with Joseph.
…
On the other side, Chelsea went back to her home.
As soon as she stepped into the house, her mother Sofia Mason walked over to greet her, “Dear Chelsea, why’re you coming back so late? You missed the dinner.”
Chelsea wrapped her arm around Sofia’s and said intimately, “I went to the golf course with a friend today and we chatted for a while. Oh, my friend’s name is Viola Kidman. You said that you like her TV series back then, so I asked her to give me her signature.”
“My dear Chelsea is really thoughtful.” While praising her daughter, Sofia glanced at the direction of the sofa and raised her voice, “Although I didn’t give birth to a son, I can’t find a person who is more thoughtful than my dear Chelsea in the world.”
“Oh, enough, mom. Don’t blow your daughter.”
Chelsea smiled and complaisantly walked over the sofa with a cup of tea in her hands, “Dad, here you are.”
Bentley Downey, who was reading newspapers sitting on the sofa, put down the newspapers and glanced at Chelsea lovingly while exhorting, “You came back so late. Wash yourself and go to bed as early as possible. Girls shouldn’t stay up late.”
“Okay.” Chelsea nodded obediently and added, “I see. Dad, you should pay more attention to your health as well.”
“By the way,” Bently took a sip of the tea, looked up and asked, “Last time you said that you saw your younger sister in a mall. Do you know where your sister’s domicile is?”
Hearing the words, the smile on Chelsea’s face became a bit stiff. She suppressed the surging displeasure and replied, “How can I know? I wanted to chat for a more while with her on that day, but she appeared to be very busy and didn’t want to talk much with me. If it wasn’t that I came across her in the mall, I’m afraid that we’re still kept in the dark about her return to the country.”
Bently heaved a sigh, “This girl, alas. It’s inappropriate to let her stay away from home alone. If you have time, please ask about where she is living in now. I want to pay a visit to her. It’s better to persuade her to live in home. Only in this way can I rest assured.”
Chelsea knitted her brows. But just as she was about to say something, a fit of coughing sound sounded from behind.
Sofia tipped her daughter a wink and walked over with a bright smile, “That’s it. It’s not safe for a girl to stay away from home alone. I’m free these two days and I will ask others to help ask about her residence. Nanking is not that big and it would be easy to find out her domicile.”
“Well.” Bently picked up the newspapers again.
After coming back to her bedroom, Chelsea tossed herself onto the bed and said in a fury, “Mom, why did you agree with dad’s proposal to find her back? Last time when I told you that I saw that bitch in the mall, you shared the news with dad. Aren’t you creating troubles for yourself?”
Sofia locked the room and said composedly and slowly, “She will come back to our home no matter whether you’ve told your father about that or not. Now that she has come back to the country, it was impossible for her not to come back home all the time. We will be caught out of guard if she comes back herself. So it’s better for us to take the initiative to tell your father about this. In this way, he will think that we’re quite thoughtful and kind.”
