Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy novel Chapter 2876

Chapter 2876

Steven was beginning to get desperate when he saw Mr. and Mrs. Hughes leaving. He stood up and sprinted in their direction, intending to catch them before they left. “There’s no need.” Gwen reached out to stop him. “There’s no need to stop them.” With that, she whispered into her earpiece, “Have your father’s men arrived yet?”

“They have,” said Nigel, letting out a sigh of relief. “Previously, none of us could seem to find Uncle Sean’s exact location.

“The Hughes family had a magnetic interruption device installed in their dungeon, and none of the people we’ve sent, including Uncle Lucas, could navigate their way-the compasses didn’t work.

“However, the moment that woman called, the butler immediately ran into the dungeon to check, and by following him, we managed to find the place they kept Uncle Sean before this. I’m sure that we’ll easily be able to find him by scouring around-they can’t have gone far.”

Nigel could not help adding, “You’re far smarter than I thought, Aunt Gwen!

“I thought that you had blurted out the truth when you tried to stop Mrs. Hughes, but I never knew you’d have done it on purpose to raise her suspicions and make her give away Uncle Sean’s location herself! “I seem to have underestimated you! You’re far smarter than I initially thought!”

Gwen could not help chuckling when she heard this. “Neither Luna nor Joshua are very good with their words, so how could they possibly have given birth to such a sweet-talker like you?”

She could not help sighing as she added, “Your father was the one who taught me this trick.”

Joshua had reminded her before coming that Mr. and Mrs. Hughes were naturally very suspicious people. Since they had committed plenty of crimes during their time, it would be easy to turn their doubts on themselves and make them give away their own plans.

Therefore, he advised her to feed them some information that would easily manipulate them into giving themselves away.

Initially, Gwen did not believe this would work. How could someone be so suspicious to this extent? However, when she finally came face-to-face with Mr. and Mrs. Hughes, she could not help feeling even more respectful of Joshua’s quick wit and intelligence.
