In the evening.
Nathan returned home with Penny and Kylie from the office.
However, they realized that Benson, Queenie, and Leah were not at home.
Nathan was shocked.
Usually, Benson would leave work early to pick up Queenie from the kindergarten while Leah would be at home preparing dinner.
Why isn't anyone home today?
At that moment, Nathan's phone rang. It was the kindergarten that had called.
He was informed that his daughter was still at the kindergarten, as no one came to pick her up.
Where did Benson and Leah go?
While he was confused, Penny's phone rang. It was Benson who had called.
After listening to what Benson had to say, Penny replied, "Dad, don't argue or fight with them. Nathan and I will be right over to resolve the matter."
Stunned, Nathan and Kylie asked Penny about what had happened.
Penny replied anxiously, "When mom went to the market today, she was persuaded by a salesperson from a high-end hair salon to do her hair."
"They told her that her hair was infected with the HPV disease, cheating her into applying for a membership card. Amidst the confusion, she loaded her membership card with five million."
"Only when she saw the receipts of her membership card and hair treatment did she realize that she was scammed."
"Not daring to tell us, she told dad instead. Dad then went to the salon to demand a refund. However, the staff at the salon refused to do so, and instead, surrounded them in a threatening manner."
Nathan became upset. "These people have gone overboard. Kylie, go pick Queenie up at the kindergarten. Penny and I will head over to the beauty salon."
A short while later, Penny and Nathan arrived at the Noblewoman Beauty chain store in their car.
The moment he saw the Noblewoman Beauty brand, he frowned.
If he remembered correctly, the Noblewoman Beauty brand belonged to the vixen, Helen.
He had not expected its chain stores to pop up all over the country in just a few years.
