The Unveiling of Secret Queen-Chapter 1331: Who knew... something went wrong
After making several phone calls, Mr. Gordon was at his wit’s end and collapsed helplessly onto the sofa in the living room.
Next to him, Mrs. Gordon was crying like a tear-soaked mess, her eyes swollen red beyond recognition.
In the living room, only the faint sound of Mrs. Gordon’s sniffles could be heard, one after another, driving Mr. Gordon into a restless frenzy. He suddenly stood up from the sofa. Frowning, he asked her in a deep voice, "What did Caryn Zachmann say when she called you about Mateo’s situation? Did she mention why Amadeus wanted to take Mateo away?" 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
"I..." Mrs. Gordon was still crying, her eyes swollen from the tears, her face buried in her hands as though she had no strength left to speak.
She had no idea how her son got involved in such trouble!
"Alright, stop crying already! Is crying useful? At a time like this, you’re still weeping here."
"If crying were useful, I’d join you!" Mr. Gordon’s temple throbbed, his tone irritable after saying this, then he raised his hand to press his temple and softly urged her, "Think carefully about what Caryn said during the phone call. Did she mention why Amadeus wanted to take Mateo? I just called everyone in the Circle, and nobody has heard anything. Think once more."
Mrs. Gordon immediately shook her head, confidently saying, "No, Ms. Zachmann didn’t say anything. She only told me that Amadeus had asked to speak with Mateo, but she didn’t say what Amadeus wanted to discuss with Mateo."
Hearing this, Mr. Gordon’s small but sharp eyes narrowed fiercely, and he said coldly, "Heh, she’s definitely involved in this somehow!"
"How could that be?" Mrs. Gordon looked at him with confusion. How did this get connected to Ms. Zachmann again? Wasn’t she kind enough to inform them?
Mr. Gordon kept a cold look on his face, not elaborating further.
He knew well what kind of good-for-nothing his youngest son was, idling around without motivation.
Every day, he only knew how to indulge in eating, drinking, and womanizing.
The habits of Mateo Gordon weren’t a major issue given their family background; with family members to succeed him, Mateo only needed to live like a parasite and could still spend his life worry-free.
However, Mr. Gordon was aware that his wayward son had an aspiration—Caryn Zachmann.
Mateo Gordon had always idolized Caryn Zachmann as his goddess.
Often he would chatter endlessly about Caryn’s achievements, how Caryn got into Tsinghua University, how Caryn’s teacher was the renowned neurosurgeon Adelle Wafford, how Caryn passed the highest level in piano proficiency...
These were all things Mr. Gordon was well aware of.
He knew what kind of person his son was, and he knew that a woman like Caryn would never be interested in someone like Mateo, so he let it be, allowing his son to be infatuated from afar.
He figured it simply: Mateo was young and impulsive, and he would understand with maturity that there was no possibility with Caryn Zachmann.
Who knew... an incident would occur!
Mr. Gordon, who had fought his way to his current position, was not someone to be trifled with. Suppressing the anger in his heart, he glared at Mrs. Gordon, who only knew how to cry.
"I’ll call Leonardy Zachmann. They have to provide a solution; otherwise, if anything happens to my son, I won’t let it end with their family!"
Mr. Gordon’s heart was hard, and he did not finish the ensuing threat.
Especially that Caryn Zachmann.
He didn’t care what role Caryn played in this matter, but even with just his toes, he could deduce that given Mateo Gordon’s usual social connections, he wouldn’t be able to provoke anyone from the Yancey Family.
