Gorgeous Couple’s Sweet Love novel Chapter 68

"Yes, Grandpa took me back." Ellis bit on his pen and said, "I've only been studying English for a few months, so I'm not good at writing. Benjamin said that no one is gonna want a husband who can't even right."

I didn't know how to reply. Why would he say something like this to a child?

"Do you know how to write retard?" I glanced at him and asked.

"Yes." As he finished, he immediately bowed his head and wrote down the word "Retard". "It's quite simple," he said.

I looked at his notebook from the corner of my eye. He knew how to spell retard but couldn't spell simpler words like "brunch".

I sighed and picked up my bag, ready to go to work. Ellis stretched out his hand and pulled the corner of my clothes. He timidly asked, "Can I come with you? I promise I will be good."

I'd always been a soft- hearted person and unable to resist other people's requests, especially in the face of such a cute and handsome boy.

I crept into the office with Ellis. "Tsk, tsk," Bob teased, "You got a son already?!"

"Don't bulls... Don't talk nonsense! "He's my nephew. I couldn't leave him alone at home. So... Can you take care of him for me? I'll go to the next door to check if September has come to work."

Benjamin's nephew should also be my nephew, I thought.

Bob looked at me as if I was an idiot. "Why don't you just call her?"

I blew him off. "Phone's out of service."

Heh, how could I not know to call her?

I only had something to discuss with September.

I went to the third floor of the procuratorate and found September's office. I opened the door and went in. She was lying on the office chair in low spirits. When she saw me, she immediately recovered her vitality and blamed me, "I only found out last night what Charlotte did to you. Why did you keep this from me all the time?"

"You were busy dealing with the Jenkins family, and it was not that big of a deal, so I asked Bob not to tell you." I thought for a moment and said, "You went on a mission with them last night? Did Riley tell you about it?" "I couldn't care less about the Jenkins family if something happens to you. If something like this ever happens, God forbids, call me!" Her words were touching.

September said excitedly, "I was bored last night, so I went to a stake-out with Riley for a while. I didn't expect to catch a big fish."

"What big fish?" I asked.

In fact, I still didn't know what September was investigating.

September took a document from the table and handed it to me. "We were on a stakeout for an embezzler but caught him with a woman. We got a photo of them."

After that, September handed me a photo.

I knew the woman in this photo!

It was Victoria.

I asked in surprise, "The suspect just met up with her. How is that a big fish?" I returned the photo to September. She held it in her hand and asked, "You look surprised. Do you know her?"

September was also a major of psychology in the fourth year of college, so she could figure out from other people's facial expressions. She was already positive that I knew the woman in the photo!

She flicked the photos. I nodded and said, "Yes, she is the former fiancee of Benjamin. Don't you remember? You met her on the cruise ship last time. How she curled up in Benjamin's arms?"

September looked as if she had just realized something and said: "Yes! It's the woman who slapped your face on the yacht! I was so angry so I didn't really look at her face. I didn't expect it to be her!"

Puzzled, I asked, "What exactly are you investigating?"

"There's a reason I said she's a big fish." September casually threw the photo on the table and explained, "I've recently been investigating a financial case in a company, which led to a murder case. That company is the branch of a business empire. Guess who the legal representative of that company is? Maguire Heaney."

Maguire Heaney, Victoria Heaney, could it be...

September smiled and said, "Victoria is the second daughter of the Heaney family. Say, why do you think the embezzler had to meet Victoria last night? Logically speaking, shouldn't he be hiding from the Heaney family?"

Understanding dawned on me. "You're suspecting that Victoria double-crossed her own family?"

"I wouldn't be too worried about that, but it involves a murder case, so we are gonna get to the bottom of this. In the afternoon, we will summon Victoria to the station, but... I guess it's useless."

September said in a nonchalant tone, "We caught the embezzler last night, so Victoria should be very vigilant by now! She might have been prepared for it. After all, Maguire's daughter is not a fool!"

I remembered that Zack said that my amnesia was caused by the Heaney family and the Solange family. Now there was no trace of the Solange family, but the Heaney family began to emerge.

In fact, I was very confused about the whole thing.

"Since it's useless, why did you summon her?" I asked.
