Wrong marriage and sweet love (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 1813

Chapter 1813: Not His Brother

Late at night.

When Felix finished a busy day and returned home with a tired and heavy body, he heard the servants below discussing yesterday's incident involving Xiao Chengjun. He frowned. Cloud and Vicki had disappeared again, leaving the abandoned villa. He had no idea where they were or what they were doing.

And now, the house couldn't even be peaceful.

He couldn't help but call for Xiao Guanjia to find out what had happened today. Xiao Guanjia didn't dare to hide anything and explained the events of the afternoon at school, his speculation, Li Xianying's attitude when she returned, and Xiao Patriarch's furious reaction, which led to the order to lock Xiao Chengjun in the storeroom in the backyard. He told Felix everything that had transpired.

After hearing it, the first thing Felix asked Xiao Guanjia was, "This sounds like Anderson's doing. You didn't tell the Patriarch the truth, did you?"

Xiao Guanjia replied, "Of course not. Mr. Felix, rest assured, I would never say anything, especially since we have no evidence, just speculation."

Felix nodded. "Anderson has already taught Chengjun a lesson. The Patriarch went a bit too far this time. He's just a four-year-old child; there's no need to go to such extremes. I'll go see him."

Xiao Guanjia said, "Yes, but I didn't dare to bring it up. I could only wait for you to come back. The child was already frightened today, and being locked in the storeroom overnight might be too much for him."

As they spoke, Xiao Guanjia led Felix to the storeroom in the backyard. It was a secluded area, more than two hundred meters away from the main building. Even the servants rarely came here. It was mainly used to store old, unused items.

It was late at night, and the wind blew back and forth, creating an eerie atmosphere as if the ghosts were crying and wolves were howling.

Xiao Guanjia pushed open the door, and a musty smell mixed with heavy dust filled the air, along with a faint odor of urine.

Felix couldn't help but frown.

Xiao Guanjia explained, "Ah, Chengjun wet his pants, and the Patriarch won't let him change his clothes or take a bath. Since you're back, please take him away quickly."

Felix nodded. When he approached Xiao Chengjun, he noticed that Chengjun was already in a deep sleep, his small face flushed, but it seemed unnaturally red.

He was taken aback and quickly reached out to touch Xiao Chengjun's cheek. "He's burning up; he has a fever, and it's quite high."

Xiao Guanjia was also shocked. "Oh no, we should take him to the hospital immediately. If the child's fever causes confusion, it will be terrible." Saying that, Xiao Guanjia quickly picked up Xiao Chengjun. "I'll take him to the hospital with the staff right away."

Felix agreed. "Yes, go quickly. I'll join you later."

The reason he didn't leave with Xiao Guanjia was because his gaze fell on an old box on a steel shelf, filled with many old items, some of which even dated back to his school years. He had moved rooms several times, and the items in his room had been cleared out numerous times. He had thrown away most of the things. Unexpectedly, some items had been stored here for over ten years.

The old box had yellowed with age, covered in thick dust.

From where he stood, Felix could clearly see a recording pen placed right in the center of the box. It was black, a rare item at the time, and he remembered it distinctly. But most importantly...

A flood of memories from the past surged, overwhelming him, back when he was young and full of youth...

He suddenly rushed forward, pulling the pen out of the box, gripping it tightly in his palm. He examined it carefully from side to side. Yes, it was indeed the missing recording pen, the one he had searched for tirelessly but couldn't find.

He held the pen, his thin lips trembling slightly. His heart was filled with mixed emotions. When he needed evidence back then, he couldn't find it. And inside this pen, the entire incident that occurred between Luther and Athena during their camping trip was recorded, evidence that could prove Luther's innocence.

When Christian confronted him, he had always boasted about having evidence, but he couldn't find this recording pen, and in the end, he couldn't prove anything.
