Chapter 1150: Chapter 1150: It Really Was Them!
"Idiot, they actually released you, so hurry up and spread the word about this, what are you waiting for..."
But before the man could finish his words, an ear-piercing sound emanated from the other end of the phone, and the call was abruptly disconnected.
At this moment, Raina Richard’s expression turned to one of utter panic.
"Hello? Hello?" Raina shook her cell phone repeatedly, trying to redial, but no one was answering on the other end.
With a swish, Raina’s face turned pale.
Could it really be as Charlotte Thompson had said, that they had already cleared everything up?
...
"Are you fucking blind?"
Oliver Ross looked at his shirt, now stained with alcohol, and cursed at the man in front of him.
"I’m so sorry, truly, I didn’t notice," the man kept apologizing to Oliver Ross, then tried to dry his shirt with his own sleeve, but this only irritated Oliver Ross even more, and with a kick, he sent the man away.
"Get lost, don’t touch me with your dirty hands," Oliver Ross spat.
He patted his shirt and then his gaze fell upon the broken phone.
Frowning, he picked up the phone, pressed it a couple of times, only to realize the screen had gone black, and out of irritation, he tossed it aside.
"This is just bad luck."
What Oliver Ross didn’t know, though, was that the man he had kicked a moment ago, who had seemed so scared in front of him, now had a stern look upon turning around.
He tapped the Bluetooth earpiece in his ear and spoke, "Young Master, Oliver Ross just answered a call."
Adam Ross, who was contacted, responded with a signal to Charlotte Thompson indicating everything was under control.
"As I thought, it’s related to Oliver Ross, causing this kind of trouble to frame me," Adam Ross sneered and stood up.
"I’ll go back now and tell Mr. Ross all about it, please take care of Jack and Chad."
Charlotte Thompson nodded, watching as Adam Ross left.
Now it was time for the final arrangements, to lure the snake out of its hole.
But Charlotte Thompson couldn’t help but sigh.
"Still worried about something?" Justin Battleson asked softly.
"No, I just feel a bit sorry for Raina Richard," Charlotte Thompson leaned into Justin Battleson’s embrace.
"She’s just an ordinary woman who did nothing wrong but ended up in an unfortunate marriage, and then was forced by someone."
Perhaps she was supposed to be a happy mother too, but instead, she was coerced into the surrogacy business.
"I hope Mr. Ross will let her go in the end, I think, she certainly didn’t mean to do such a thing."
Charlotte Thompson was a mother herself, she surely understood a mother’s feelings.
"Mr. Ross is not that heartless; once he investigates and understands the whole situation, he will certainly make his own decision," Justin Battleson wrapped his arm around Charlotte gently, comforting her.
Meanwhile, Adam Ross hurried back to the Ross Family home and conveyed some of the investigation’s findings to Mr. Ross.
How could Mr. Ross not be infuriated?
"Bastard! It was indeed their doing!" Mr. Ross’s walking stick struck the ground hard, and a sudden surge of anger made him cough uncontrollably.
Seeing this, Adam Ross quickly stepped forward to pat Mr. Ross’s back, helping him to catch his breath.
"Didn’t we have our suspicions from the beginning? It’s just that initially, there was no evidence."
Mr. Ross snorted coldly, seemingly about to command something but then turned to look at Adam Ross instead.
"What do you plan to do about this?"
