Daddy, You Got The Wrong Mommy-Chapter 232: The Leather Jacket Is So Heartwarming
Leia Quinn also noticed the gaze from Elara Don and blinked.
"Elly, what’s up? Did you discover some secret about him that’s hard to share? Don’t be afraid, tell me about it. I’ll protect you."
Hearing this, Elara Don smiled and gently patted her.
"No, it’s just that I have something I want to ask Craig for help with."
Ask him for help?
Craig Landers became interested.
"Elly, Damon is my best friend, and you are the woman he loves most, so feel free to say whatever you need."
Elara Don pursed her lips and truthfully told them what she did today.
Both of them knew their mother’s death wasn’t an accident, so having one more person to discuss with meant gaining an extra idea.
Craig Landers listened carefully, his face slightly tense.
"Elly, there’s something strange about this. I don’t believe a person who was once imprisoned would suddenly have a change of heart just because of what you said. Tomorrow you can’t go, I’ll have someone investigate first."
Hearing this, Elara Don got anxious.
"No way, whether this is a trap or not, I have to meet Jack Clarke tomorrow. Moreover, I put a listening device in his bag and personally heard him call the person behind the scenes to ask for money. Based on what he just told me, it can be explained. He got some money and plans to flee, it’s possible he had a conscience before running."
"Elly, you’re being too naive. I still think going tomorrow is too dangerous."
Craig Landers strongly disagreed.
"Craig, no matter how dangerous it is, I don’t want to miss this opportunity."
"But..."
"Wayne, could you stop trying to douse the flames, think of how to ensure Elly’s safety is what’s really needed."
Seeing this, Leia Quinn quickly spoke up.
She understood Elara Don’s feelings.
Knowing her mother’s death wasn’t accidental, she must be eager to find out the truth.
Now that there’s a clue, how could she give up the investigation?
Craig Landers furrowed his brow, "Okay, I’ll gather some information before you go and see if there’s anything unusual. I’ll also be in the room next to yours, if anything happens, I can support you immediately."
Upon hearing this, Elara Don felt grateful.
"Thank you, Craig."
"Don’t mention it. I think I should also inform Damon."
Craig Landers picked up his phone to call Damon Hawke.
But Damon Hawke’s phone couldn’t be reached at all.
"Damon is probably busy, he’s near the seaside, maybe he doesn’t have a signal."
Craig Landers hung up the phone and said.
"It’s nothing, don’t disturb him." Elara Don quickly said.
Craig Landers glanced at her, "Ugh, why do I feel like I’ve boarded a pirate ship?"
Please let nothing happen tomorrow.
Or else, if he acts on his own, his own brother will definitely peel off a layer of his skin!
Elara Don and Leia Quinn looked at each other and shared a knowing smile.
Just as the three had finished eating, Bea’s video call came in.
Elara Don hurriedly answered the call.
"Bea?"
"Mommy, Grandpa and Grandma want brother and me to ask you what you’d like to eat. We’ll bring back something for you to eat later."
The little one’s voice came through the call with a hint of excitement.
Seeing her son’s rosy cheeks, Elara Don smiled.
"Bea, thank Grandpa and Grandma for me. I just ate a full meal with Auntie, you don’t need to bother bringing anything back."
"Is that so? But I think Grandpa and Grandma will surely let brother and me bring something back for you. They said you’re too thin and need nourishment."
Bea blinked his big eyes and said.
Elara Don felt warmth inside, "Bea, why don’t you and Charlie stay at Grandpa and Grandma’s tonight? So they don’t have to pick you up for kindergarten tomorrow."
She wasn’t unreasonable.
She appreciated the elders of the Hawke Family’s sincerity, and it wouldn’t be justified if she kept the kids with her all the time.
"Mommy, is Daddy home tonight?"
Bea tilted his head and asked.
"Daddy is on a business trip, he probably won’t come back tonight. What’s up?"
Elara Don blinked, curiously asking.
"If Daddy was home, brother and I wouldn’t come back. But since Daddy isn’t home, we should return, otherwise Mommy, you’d be lonely."
Elara Don: "..."
No way!
Her tears were about to fall!
Her little one was too heartwarming!
Elara Don smiled and raised her eyes, forcefully holding back the bitterness in her gaze.
Seeing this, Leia Quinn hugged her shoulder and said towards the camera, "Bea, you and Charlie shouldn’t worry too much, don’t I have her here? If you guys don’t come back, I’ll stay over to accompany your mommy."
Hearing this, before Bea could respond, Craig Landers chimed in.
"Hey, Bea, it’s your godfather! Your godmother isn’t convenient to stay tonight, you’re a good kid, always filial, you’ll definitely come back to keep your mommy company, right?"
He finally had a good meal, and didn’t want the woman who was supposed to be by his side to accompany someone else tonight.
"Craig, what are you talking about? Why isn’t it convenient for me to stay?"
Leia Quinn angrily glared at him.
"Cindy darling, didn’t you forget, we have things to discuss tonight?"
Craig Landers said with a grin.
Leia Quinn furrowed her brow, "What things? I don’t know anything about this?"
"Just some matters that can’t be known by outsiders."
Craig Landers smiled meaningfully.
Leia Quinn had an inquisitive look, thinking of something, suddenly blushed and gave him a hard slap.
"Craig Landers, you’re shameless."
What matters can’t be known by outsiders?
Of course, matters between men and women!
This annoying man!
"Hiss, Cindy darling, how am I shameless?"
"You’re just shameless! I’m telling you, I’m staying over at Elly’s tonight!"
"Elly doesn’t need you, I’m the one who needs you!"
"..."
Watching the two bicker flirtatiously, Elara Don smiled knowingly.
She didn’t need anyone’s company because she expected to stay up all night.
Crestfall.
Damon Hawke chatted in the dark with the manager at the construction site.
"Mr. Hawke, with the project stalled, we’re losing quite a lot each day. What do you think we should do?"
The project manager looked anxious.
"Don’t rush, I’ve already contacted the relevant department, we’ll meet tomorrow to discuss."
Damon Hawke reassured the manager, his face showing seriousness.
He had inquired, and his trusted connections told him that someone from above had intervened suddenly.
And this person is the newly appointed secretary-general in Crestfall.
A new official first burns three fires, is he trying to use his project as a case?
Damon Hawke completed his inspection and returned to the hotel shortly after.
He looked at his phone, but there were no messages or calls.
Heartless little one, not even bothering to call him from home?
Damon Hawke silently grumbled, contemplating dialing Elara Don.
But realizing the time, it was already past midnight.
After some thought, he put the phone down.
It was too late, best not to disturb her sleep.
