Ralph gave Ian a bland smile. "Brother, you’ve been busy these days, haven’t you?"
Ralph said, dragging out his answer with a matter-of-fact tone.
Ian managed to hold back his excitement and replied, "Of course, I've already dug all the dirt that Lincoln had buried, including solicitation and conspiracy to the crime of drug trafficking."
Holding Natalia in his arms, Kayden praised cheerfully, "Okay! Lincoln is so doomed! Finally, it’s his time to die!"
Natalia was going to marry him; Lincoln had been arrested; Ralph was released, and a concert was held successfully! And then the whole thing would just go away.
There was always a silver lining. Everything was going to be on the right track.
Edward looked at Ralph. "You're going downhill, aren’t you? Ian had it all done in a couple of days while you spent a lot of time on it."
Ralph smiled knowingly.
Ian said with a frown, "I can’t take all the credit. Ralph gave me this clue because he has been watched by Lincoln. I just followed his clue."
Edward didn't expect Ian to have a thing for Ralph. It was so boring, so he left with a pout.
But Ralph raised his eyebrows elatedly and patted Ian on the shoulder. "Brother, admit it. You did help me a lot this time."
Ian looked calm, but his palms began to sweat.
He had never been so approved by his family since he was a child.
A sense of satisfaction rose from his heart, making his nose feel a bit itchy. But he had such amazing self-control that he maintained a good posture in front of Ralph. "Really, I didn't do anything."
"All right, stop. We need to get back to the lounge. Lottie will be back soon."
Ralph did not want to waste any minute. He said to Ian, "Brother, I'll leave Lincoln and the others to you. I'm going to check Lottie."
Ian nodded. "Go ahead."
Edward grabbed him and asked, "Where are you going? Won't you get the injection?"
Ralph flung Edward's hand off impatiently. "Do you have enough antidotes?"
Edward was stunned when he was counting the number of infected people in his mind.
Well, he didn't.
"I don't need it. I have a better pill." Ralph smiled mischievously.
Then he quickly walked towards the stage.
He was getting closer to the stage when he heard Lottie's beautiful voice.
She made her performance in equal length with Violet and Natalia to show her sincerity.
Her sword dance won the audience’s applause. After the sword dance, she sang a love song in a foreign language. Her beautiful accent and voice light up the atmosphere in the stadium.
Ralph took out a jewelry box from his pocket. He opened the box, and the tiny blue gem was shining in the dark.
Kayden shouldn’t mind if Ralph used his ring likewise, right?
Thinking of this, Ralph took out his headset from his pocket and put it on.
Ralph said, "Test, test."
Three childish voices immediately came from the headset.
"Roger that!"
"I'm here!"
"Daddy, we're ready!"
Ralph's lips curled up into a smile. "Meet me on stage a minute later."
"Okay!"
