Chapter 199
“Luke, I... I slept with another man.”
As she said this, tears rolled uncontrollably down her cheeks. She seemed to be in some indescribable agony.
The world labeled him as a ruthless and impassive man. However, he really treated Dexie very well. He even prepared clothes and accessories for her, his employee. Even if Dexie were the biggest fool in the world, she wouldn’t believe he did all this for Danny’s sake.
Luke was stunned when he heard her words. Finally, he realized this and smiled smugly. He reached out a hand and wiped the tears from her face. He spoke in a hoarse voice when he said, “Silly girl, are you talking about the night Paloma made you deliver wine?”
Dexie nodded. “Mmhm. How did you know?"
She immediately came to an understanding. Since Luke hired her to take care of Danny, she would naturally have done an extremely thorough background check on her.
Luke wiped away his tears. He loo

The doorbell interrupted Luke, and Dexie couldn’t catch his last words. She had no choice but to follow Luke to the door. She could vaguely sense that Luke had something important to say, but someone had rung the doorbell before she could hear him speak. They opened the door. Dario and Jocelyn were outside.The couple stood at the door. Their faces didn’t look very good, and Jocelyn seemed to have shed some tears. Dario had a rather unpleasant expression on his face, mixed with a hint of discomfort. Luke frowned slightly. He stepped aside and spoke to Dexie, who was behind him.“They are looking for you.” Dexie nodded and walked towards the door. She asked, “Mother, father, why have you come?”“Dexie, are you free to talk for a while?” Jocelyn did her best to hold back the tears as she choked on her words.She nervously looked at Luke, who was behind her. Obvio

Dexie was in a state of shock when she heard what Luke said. Slowly, a smile spread across her face, replacing the despair within her. However, she shed even more tears.“Luke, are you telling the truth?”Luke nodded and hugged her tightly. It was almost as if he wanted her to melt into his body. “I only realized this a while ago. It was an accident, but I didn’t dare tell you because... I was worried you would start avoiding me out of fear.”He continued, “If I had known you were suffering so much, I would have told you the truth much earlier.”She sobbed. “Luke, you idiot! I’ve been so upset all this time, and it’s all your fault. Did you know how worried and scared I was?”She pounded her fists against his muscular chest. But to him, it just felt like a tickl

“Miss Hansley, it doesn’t matter who I am. You just need to know that I am in the same position as you. I am someone who wants to send Dexie to eternal damnation. That would be enough.”The voice on the other end of the call sounded mysterious and fascinating. Although the other party spoke exceptionally warmly, and the words spoken intended to pacify Paloma, they sent an inexplicable shiver down her spine.“Elaine, who are you talking to?” Jocelyn asked Paloma. She could sense that something was not right.“Miss Hansley, ask your mother to leave. I want to talk to you in private,” the woman on the other end of the line added when she heard Jocelyn’s voice.Unexpectedly, this dangerous woman captivated Paloma. When Paloma heard her request, she found it very reasonable. She looked at Jocelyn and said, “Mom, go away for a while. I need to talk to a friend.&rdquo

When he returned to the private room, he saw everyone chatting and drinking. Although everything seemed perfectly normal on the surface, he still had a feeling that something was not right. Despite his doubts, he returned to the seat next to Jessebelle.“Do you want to eat something? Are you hungry?”Luke asked the moment he sat down. It was as if he had ignored everyone else’s presence.As he said this, he was cleaning his left hand with an antiseptic wipe. He had a grim expression on his face, and he was in a bad mood.Everyone around exchanged glances.Harry looked at Jasper, and since Jasper was the boldest of all, he spoke with a smile, “Sister-in-law... Miss Hansley, you’re finally back. Just now, my companion had the nerve to secretly touch your hand. I almost cut off his hands. Since then, he has been

Gavin drove at high speed throughout the journey. After forty minutes, he finally arrived at the address Eric had sent. Eric, with a bandage in hand, seemed to have arrived as well. He looked inside and outside, but didn't see anyone. His expression was very unpleasant.Dexie asked as soon as she entered the door, "Eric, how is the search going?"She felt more disheartened when she saw Eric's appearance and the poverty situation in his family. Upon seeing Dexie enter, Eric said with a concerned expression on his face, "I can't find them. I can't find my parents anywhere."As Eric spoke, he also looked at Luke. The expression in his eyes seemed to be one of self-blame and guilt.Luke looked at Eric and said solemnly, "First, call all your relatives and friends. I will ask my subordinates how the investigation is going."Dexie said, "Eric, hurry and call them." Eric nodded and quickly started making calls. Luke took his phone and walked to the door to give instructions to Gavin and the

She didn’t dare release the beans in front of Luke because she didn’t want him to have something against her. She was quite cunning.Dexie asked through clenched teeth, “What exactly do you want?”Paloma said, “I have a broken heart now, so I want to be happy.”Dexie asked patiently, “Then, how can you be happy?”“If my wedding with Oswin is not ruined, and if you will kneel in front of me and admit your mistake, if you ensure that the Huxley family never suffers because of me, maybe, I will be a little happier.”After Paloma finished speaking, she chuckled twice, as if she were extremely joyful.Her laughter made Dexie’s face fall instantly.She said coldly, “Paloma, what are you talking about? You’re delirious!”“Dexie, you asked me yourself, why are you saying I’m delirious now?” On the other end of the phone, Paloma chuckled and said, “If you don’t want to, it’s fine. Go find your poor parents on your own.”Dexie felt shocked and angry, and Eric’s expression was even more furious.

Dexie suppressed the anger and anxiety in her voice and asked Paloma as calmly as possible, "What do you want me to do?"Paloma said, "I know Lukey and Eric are there right now, so I won't tell you anything."Paloma's voice was no longer hysterical. She said, "Dexie, it wasn't me who took them, and you've already cornered the Hansley family," with a calm and indifferent air. No matter how you threaten me, it's useless. I'm just a pawn in someone else's plan, so you don't need to think about asking them for help. I know Mr. Huxley and Eric will allow you to try to find out their whereabouts and tell you not to act alone but to think for yourself. Even if you kill me now, it will be useless because you won't be able to find your parents anymore, so you know what to do."With that, Paloma hung up the phone.Dexie was stunned. She felt bewildered by how unconcerned Paloma was. Confused, she tried calling Paloma again, but Paloma's phone was turned off.Luke said, "Don't worry, my subordin

Dexie froze for a moment and looked at the text message, somewhat astonished. Despite her confusion, she immediately put on an indifferent expression, put away her phone, and accompanied Eric and his parents to the living room.Eric asked, “Mom, Dad, are you both okay? Who took you both?”Howard William said, “It was a young man. He said he was a friend of Dexie.”Howard seemed very honest. Probably because his family was poor, and he had been doing forced labor all year, he had many wrinkles on his face. He looked at Dexie and said cautiously, “Dexie, did you send someone to pick us up?”Dexie was frozen for a moment. She didn’t want to scare her parents, so she nodded and said, “Yes, but I will call ahead if I send someone to pick you up again in the future. Right now, Eric has also scolded me for my carelessness and negligence.”When the two elders heard this, they both looked at Eric, a little dissatisfied. Howard immediately said, “Eric, how can you sell your sister?”Tara Lauren
