Mr. CEO's Ex-Wife: A Cunning Comeback-Chapter 49 - : What A Brat

The more he spoke, the more convinced he felt that he had done the right thing by driving that woman out.

Thinking this was his chance to gain favor, Roman quickly walked over.

"I've already kicked that vicious woman out, along with Kate. Mr. Wilson, you must believe me. Rai is my grandson. I would never harm him, and neither would the Bently family!"

"You just said Mrs. Bently didn't give birth to Chantelle. But aren't Chantelle and Kate twins?"

Daniel was stunned by that revelation.

"We only said Chantelle and Kate were fraternal twins because they looked so much alike. Kate was weak as a child and couldn't move around much. Luckily, she had Chantelle to keep her company..."

Roman hadn't expected Daniel to ask about this. He hesitated before answering.

He couldn't shake the feeling that Daniel cared more about Chantelle than Kate.

Had he not let go of his past hatred?

Roman started sweating nervously as the thought sank in.

Daniel's eyes widened in shock at his words.

In poor health and couldn't get around? 

Then, who was with me at the Blue Sky Amusement Park when I was a kid? 

Did I just uncover a huge secret?

Could I be imagining things?

Daniel's heart pounded, and a flicker of panic flashed in his eyes.

"Sir..."

Ashton's voice snapped him out of his thoughts.

Regaining his composure, his face returned to its usual calm.

"See the visitor out."

"Mr. Wilson! Please! Save the Bently family! I beg you!"

Roman cried out in desperation as Daniel ordered him to be escorted out.

But Daniel no longer wanted to hear his voice. He signaled Ashton to remove him from the room.

His mind was in turmoil, and a tightness in his chest made it hard to breathe.

Roman's frantic pleas faded, and soon, Ashton returned after carrying out the order.

"Sir, you don't look well. Should I call Mr. Collins?"

"I'm fine. Look into the Bently family's genealogy. Get as much information as possible."

"Okay!"

Ashton noticed the heavy atmosphere around Daniel.

Realizing the seriousness of the situation, he left without another word.

Now alone in the meeting room, Daniel took out his phone.

When he unlocked it, the screen still showed the paused surveillance video from earlier.

The woman's eyes in the video were filled with fear, like a frightened fawn.

Daniel gripped his phone tightly and muttered, "Who the hell are you?"

Kane had been restless all morning. He hadn't seen Daniel and was worried that the big scumbag might be bothering his mother.

Being proactive as always, he put on his small school bag and quietly slipped out.

It was time to keep an eye on the big scumbag's movements and be a good spy for his mother.

Kane slipped out of the villa and hopped into the car he had booked through an e-hailing app.

Sitting in the back seat, he opened the tracking feature on his phone.

Daniel had discovered the tracking device last time, but Kane had been quick.

While Daniel was distracted, he installed a real-time location tracker on his phone.

Now, all he had to do was open the "Find My Family" app to see where the big scumbag was.

The tracker pin showed that Daniel was at the Wilson Group of Companies Building.

When Kane saw the exact location, he quickly changed the destination on the e-hailing app.

The car headed straight for Wilson Group of Companies.

The driver glanced at him, surprised to see such a young child traveling alone.

"Hey kid, why are you going to Wilson Group of Companies by yourself?"

Kane didn't feel like talking, so he slid on his sunglasses.

He thought, "Mommy always tells me to be polite," but she also said children shouldn't talk to strangers.

He didn't have to answer a stranger's questions.

"Wow, this kid is cool," the driver muttered. Realizing Kane was ignoring him, he stopped talking and focused on driving.

Soon after, they reached their destination.

Kane had set up an e-wallet for automatic payment.

When the car stopped, he opened the door and ran toward Wilson Group of Companies.

His excitement was through the roof!

Wow! If I hadn't seen it myself, I wouldn't believe it! What a surprise!

The Wilson Group of Companies building was breathtaking. 

It was tall, massive, and absolutely stunning! 

Kane's excitement skyrocketed. He had already started calculating how much inheritance he might get in the future!

Kane took two pictures in front of the Wilson Group of Companies building. He was in a great mood and wanted to send them to his mother, letting her know he was ready to take back what was hers.

He was so focused on taking the photos that he didn't notice someone approaching.

A man suddenly covered his mouth and carried him into a black sedan.

Kane bit the man's hand and broke free. "What are you doing? Let me go!" he shouted.

"What a brat! Not only do you talk back, but you bite, too! Like father, like son. You're both insane!"

Roman, disguised with a mask and sunglasses, scoffed. He then signaled the driver to start the car.

Kane's started to panic as the vehicle moved. Am I being kidnapped? he thought. How dare he come after me!

Crossing his arms, he glared at Roman.

"Why are you bullying a little kid like me, old man? Don't you have anything better to do?"

Based on Roman's words and the fact that he didn't seem really dangerous, Kane quickly figured out what was happening. His kidnapper knew Daniel and was likely trying to negotiate for ransom.

Kane was secretly happy. We have a common enemy!

"Why ask so many questions? I'm just taking you to my home for a bit.

Once I get what I want, I'll send you back home. Be good, okay?" Roman tried to reason with him after noticing how calm he was.

Kane's eyes lit up. So I was right! 

He thought of his personal mantra and smirked.

"I can work with you. But what's in it for me?"

Roman was taken aback. The boy wasn't just talking—he was negotiating!

"I'll get you ice cream and a big toy. How about that?"

Seeing Kane's sudden cooperation, Roman became even more confident his plan would work.
