Love Comes To Me -
Chapter 267: Clearly a kidnapping
Reeva Lawson finished her hysterical roar and glared hatefully at Hector Rogers.
Compared to her excitement, Hector Rogers seemed calm.
"How do you know that?" Hector Rogers asked.
"What?" Reeva Lawson frowned.
"How did you replace out about Eloise having a child out of wedlock?"
"It's..." was still angry, now Reeva Lawson instead a little flustered, her eyes drifted down and she grunted coldly, "If you want people to know, you have to do it!"
Hector Rogers narrowed his eyes, "No, I've had Rupert put a lid on this, how would you know? Unless ... you're the one behind it."
A flash of panic crossed Reeva Lawson's face and, unable to think about what he had said, she retorted anxiously, "No, I didn't make the post."
"The post?" Dark eyes swept quickly to a glint, "I don't think I mentioned the word 'post'."
Reeva Lawson really panicked, but soon she calmed down and raised her face with a mocking look on her brow, "Eloise Thompson did it herself and thought she could hide it from the world, who knew someone would see fit to post it, I would know, someone told me."
"Who is it?"
"A friend."
Reeva Lawson was afraid that if he pressed her any further, she wouldn't be able to handle it, so she squeezed out a smile and said before he could speak, "Hector, since you're not in a good mood, I'll see you another time." At this point, the assistant walked in.
Reeva Lawson gave him a look and said, "Don't bother, I'll walk on my own."
With that, he strides off.
The assistant watched her leave before looking to Hector Rogers, "President."
"Get out."
A cold, stern look came over, and the assistant didn't dare to say anything else, so she hurriedly turned around and went out.
...
Rupert Rogers racked his brain and just couldn't figure out how someone as big as Eloise Thompson could not be found.
What he couldn't understand was that there was something the Rogers family couldn't do.
With the Rogers family's power, replaceing someone was a matter of minutes, but this time, no matter how many forces he deployed, he just couldn't replace them.
This is so fishy, something is definitely wrong.
Rupert Rogers regrouped through the whole thing and suddenly thought of something and slapped his head, "Yes, why did I forget the Thompson family? They should know best about their sister-in-law."
Yes, the Thompson family must know something.
Rupert Rogers rushed to drive to the Thompson family.
The Thompson family were surprised by the arrival of Rupert Rogers, especially Josh Thompson, who was not expecting the Rogers familyMr Rupert himself and was so excited that he thought he was climbing on the Rogers family bandwagon. "Mr Rupert, sit down, sit down."
Josh Thompson looked at Rupert Rogers with trepidation.
Rupert Rogers gave him a cold sweep with a sneer in his brow.
The Thompson family is well known to Rupert Rogers, especially how they treated their sister-in-law, and it couldn't be clearer.
To the Thompson family, he was scornful.
If he hadn't wanted to replace out what happened to his sister-in-law, he wouldn't have wanted to come at all.
"I'm not here to chat, I'm here to ask you something." Rupert Rogers spoke coldly.
Josh Thompson said with a smile, "Mr Rupert, if you have anything to ask, just ask and I will know everything."
At this point Josh Thompson was still full of joy that Rupert Rogers would come to him and say because he saw him. "Mr Rupert, please have coffee."
Ela Turner brings the tea to Rupert Rogers.
Without even looking at her, Rupert Rogers said to Josh Thompson, "Do you know where my sister-in-law is?"
At that, Josh Thompson froze, "Eloise?"
"Well, you know what?"
"I don't know. What? Has she disappeared?"
Rupert Rogers frowned, "You didn't know?"
Josh Thompson has never been fond of Eloise Thompson, his daughter, and he was treated that way by Eloise Thompson some time ago, and he is even less fond of the daughter.
So it's not surprising that he didn't know about Eloise Thompson's disappearance.
Ela Turner's face turned a little ugly when she saw that Rupert Rogers was ignoring her, but she managed to smile and explain, "Eloise is an independent child and does whatever she wants, so her father and I can't control that." At this she said, Rupert Rogers finally moved his eyes to her.
"Is it out of your hands, or do you simply not want to care?"
Ela Turner laughed dryly: "Mr Rupert, you're not telling a joke? How could we not want to care for Eloise? She's our daughter too."
"Oh?" Rupert Rogers raised an eyebrow, "If she's your daughter, then how come you don't know where she is?"
Ela Turner choked, unable to speak for a moment.
"Mr Rupert, is something happening to Eloise?" It was then that Josh Thompson remembered to be concerned about his daughter's condition.
But it was already too late.
Rupert Rogers hooked his lips mockingly, "Josh Thompson, would you not know what happened to my sister-in-law? You should be well aware of what happened five years ago."
Five years ago?
There was a quick glint in Josh Thompson's eye, so that's what Rupert Rogers was here for.
Only the other day Eloise Thompson ran home and confronted him about it, so it seems that the story is really well known.
Josh Thompson is an old fox, how can he possibly tell the truth.
"I don't know anything about five years ago, or Rupert Rogers you can tell me."
Rupert Rogers narrowed his eyes, "You really don't know."
"Sure." Josh Thompson replied with a straight face.
You've got some nerve telling lies with your eyes open!
Rupert Rogers almost lost his temper on the spot, but in the end he held back, his lips curved up and his smile didn't reach his cold eyes, "Josh Thompson, I'm asking you one last time, do you know where my sister-in-law is? Do you know about what happened five years ago?"
"I don't know."
Still the same answer.
"Good, very good."
Rupert Rogers nodded, and suddenly, he shouted outside, "All in."
Who is it?
Josh Thompson and Ela Turner turned their heads in a hurry to look over.
Several bodyguards dressed in black suits were seen walking in.
At the sight of the tall bodyguards, Josh Thompson and Ela Turner both panicked a little and hurriedly asked, "Mr Rupert, what do you mean by that?"
Without replying, Rupert Rogers ordered his bodyguard directly, "Come on, we'll invite Mr Josh to go for a coffee and a chat."
At the news, Josh Thompson and Ela Turner both blushed.
The bouncers were seen coming forward and setting Josh Thompson up left and right.
This is not an invitation, it is clearly a kidnapping.
Josh Thompson got anxious, "Mr Rupert, why bother inviting me back when you can just say what you have to say here?"
Ela Turner also said, "That's right, Mr Rupert, if you have something to say, say it here and I'll make you another coffee."
"No need, I'm afraid I won't be able to talk about it here, so I'd better go to my place and talk slowly."
Rupert Rogers deliberately used the words "take your time" with a sneer on the corner of his mouth. "Mr Rupert ..."
Ela Turner tried to say something else, but Rupert Rogers wasn't even listening.
"Come on, let's go back."
Rupert Rogers took the lead and headed outside.
The bodyguard followed behind with Josh Thompson on his feet.
"Old River ..." Ela Turner could only watch as people were taken away by Rupert Rogers.
