Chapter 69

Before the two foreigners could finish speaking. Felix secretly glanced at Christopher.

With just one glimpse, he hastily averted his gaze.

Christopher’s eyes gleamed with a cold light.

They spent countless hours searching from Moranta to Ledroustein, only to realize in the end that their efforts were all in vain.

No wonder Christopher’s expression looked like this.

Felix was silently thankful that Noah had come along. Without Noah’s presence, he would have been unsure how to comfort Christopher.

After the two foreigners finished speaking, Christopher stood still, completely mesmerized, and lost in a trance of contemplation.

Noah graciously expressed his gratitude to them.

“Christopher, it appears that we have been deceived. It seems that she intentionally led us to the wrong address.” Noah told the truth and chose his words with caution.

Christopher knew about the problem, but his friendship with Noah kept him from getting angry.

Had it been his subordinates, he would have roared at them mercilessly until they were completely lost.

He gazed up at Noah and pondered before he uttered, “I didn’t expect her to be so cun ning.”

When he heard this, Noah also found it utterly unbelievable.

He hardly crossed paths with Katherine, so they never even had a chance to have a one- on-one conversation.

She always silently followed Christopher and behaved sweetly and helplessly.

Had he not been aware of Christopher’s dislike toward her, he would have perceived a tranquil ambiance between them at that particular moment.

He was surprised to see this side of Katherine.

After he pondered and analyzed inwardly, Noah had a shiver down his spine. ‘Never mess with a woman.”

Chapter 69

Katherine taught him a valuable lesson.

When the woman was in love, she became as gentle as a kitten.

However, once the woman’s heart turned cold, she would transform into a fierce lioness.

In fact, he felt that a savage lioness was a better match for Christopher.

Perhaps they were meant to be a perfect couple.

However, there would be many unexpected turns along the way.

Katherine couldn’t possibly be in Ledroustein. It was best for them to leave.

Noah asked tentatively, “Then what should we do next?”

Felix stood aside and held his breath. His ears perked up as he fixated on Christopher’s alluring, slender l*ps..

“Let’s go back, Christopher replied reticently while everyone waited for his response.

He believed Katherine had assistance from an expert.

If she could deceive him and lead him into Ledroustein, then she would certainly have more tricks up her sleeve.

He had no interest in participating in this cat-and-mouse game.

Hence, it was better to wait instead.

If she ever felt like showing up, she would do so on her own terms.

Perhaps by then, the little cutie next to her would have learned to speak.

He wondered whether the child would call him “Daddy” when he saw him.

Based on Katherine’s current attitude toward him, it was highly unlikely that the child would.

Perhaps she would even replace a new father for the little cutie.

Christopher’s facial expression constantly shifted as thoughts raced through his mind. At times, it radiated warmth, sometimes it appeared overcast, and occasionally it mirrored a violent storm.

Felix lost his nerve to sneak up on Christopher and kept it out of his mind.

Although Noah was like a pawn because he rushed to Ledroustein with them, he knew.

exactly what happened.

On the plane, he was seated next to Christopher.

When he looked at Christopher as he closed his eyes to rest, Noah asked curiously, “What’s the rush to replace Katherine?”

Noah couldn’t understand why he wanted to disturb her life when he didn’t have any feelings for her.

Christopher didn’t sleep well. He felt fine when he was occupied, but as soon as he stopped, he was overwhelmed by fatigue.

Christopher felt pain in his temple and instinctively pressed it with his fingers.

With a gaze fixed ahead, he retorted with a voice filled with h o ar seness, “Because she sna tched my son away from me.”

As Noah drank water, Christopher blurted out these words, which caused the water to gush from his mouth.

Christopher was either lucky or wise.

If he had turned around and spoken, the water would have sprayed his face.

Currently, only a handful of water droplets had landed on his luxury suit.

Noah playfully smiled and swiftly grabbed some tissues. He pretended to wipe Christopher’s suit multiple times, just like a dawdling waiter.

Christopher turned his head and glared at him.

“You are blessed with a son, which is indeed a momentous occasion worthy of immense joy. Come on! Show me your biggest smile. Just then, Noah took out his phone and turned on the camera to record this historic moment for Christopher.

But Christopher wasn’t in the mood to joke with him.

He was filled with anxiety at the mere thought of his son potentially referring to someone else as “Daddy.”

Over the past two years, he was mean to her and hoped she would give up and ask for a divorce.

Yet, she didn’t care.

Eventually, she became pregnant, which gave her a trump card. However, instead of staying, she decided to leave right away.

Chapter 69

Is there anything I’ve neglected? The more Christopher thought about it, the stranger

he felt.

Noah observed Christopher’s refusal to cooperate and quickly snapped twice, which captured only a few images of his perpetually frigid expression.

He sat down and prattled incessantly, “Christopher, I don’t care. When you locate your son, he should acknowledge me as his godfather.”

It was “father” again.

Christopher rubbed his forehead. As a father, he had not even been acknowledged yet.

These people were all after his son.

Once again, Noah was ignored, which led him to cease causing any further disturbances.

It was quiet in the cabin. Everyone was tired after such a fuss.

Meanwhile, Maxwell had been discharged from the hospital.

He waited anxiously and excitedly at the Levine manor, eager to hear some good news from Christopher.

After an interminable wait, his long-awaited dream had finally become a reality.

He was overjoyed.

Heather sat beside Maxwell and gently reminded him, “Maxwell, it’s important for you to be mindful of your mood. Having fluctuating emotions like this can have negative effects on your health.”

Regardless of what others said, he would always be willing to listen to them as long as he was in a good mood. “All right. Your words have been heard.”

Felix called over 20 minutes ago and said that they were already on their way back.

Maxwell glanced at his wristwatch and muttered, “The ride from the airport to home takes a mere half an hour at most. They should be here soon.”

Maxwell couldn’t bear to stay seated any longer, so he walked out of the living room and waited in the courtyard.

The engine of the car roared as it pulled into the courtyard.

As Maxwell walked ahead, Christopher got out of the car and called him, “Grandpa.”

SEND GIFT

He didn’t answer immediately. He tilted his head and peered into the car. “What happened? Why are you the only one back? Where is Katherine?”

Christopher should have realized that Maxwell would never personally greet him in the courtyard as he had never received such treatment,

This time was no different. He was waiting for Katherine.

“We weren’t able to replace her in Ledroustein.” He refrained from providing further explanations.

In short, all efforts were in vain, and she was not found.
