Zion frowned slightly, and Evangeline held Allegra's hand tightly, for fear that she would be lost again.
Esmeralda found a relatively safe place to stand up in the shortest time possible.
At this moment, Whale came in.
"Boss, someone from the police station came. Someone died in the moat. It has something to do with our caravan."
Whale's face was a little serious, and Zion's eyes narrowed.
He had only just accepted Klaus's business for a short while. How did something happen to him?
Esmeralda immediately tensed up when she heard that.
"Brother, do you want dad to show up?"
"Don't worry about my business. Stay at home with Anne andAllegra. The rest has nothing to do with you."
Zion coldly followed Whale out.
"Klaus."
Evangeline stopped Zion in a hurry.
She didn't know why she stopped him, but she suddenly felt a little flustered and uneasy. The feeling was inexplicable, but it was heartwrenching.
Zion turned her head slightly, looked into Evangeline's nervous eyes, and said with a smile, "Don't worry. I'll be back soon."
"Dad!"
Allegra suddenly opened her mouth. Her childish voice was clear and timid, but it softened Zion's heart.
This girl's was so sweet.
"Call me Daddy! Call me Daddy in the future, understand?"
"Daddy, you have to come back quickly. Mom and I will wait for you at home."
Allegra quickly corrected herself.
Evangeline was stunned for a moment, and then she remembered Allegra's identity. She couldn't help but understand Zion's intention.
Father and mother were the two words that her biological parents could have. Although they said that the child was her biological parents, in fact, they were afraid that the child would feel uncomfortable in the future, this title had to be kept for the veterans.
Thinking of this, Evangeline touched her head and said with a smile, "Call me mommy in the future. Don't call us mother and father anymore, okay?"
"Got it."
Allegra didn't know why, but now she knew that the gentle lady in front of her was her mommy. She was very happy. Of course, she would agree to whatever Evangeline said.
Zion looked at the mother and daughter again, then got up and went out.
As for Whale, he asked someone to protect his family.
When Zion went out, the police were waiting outside. Obviously, they were a little afraid of him.
"Klaus, it's just my job. Don't be too nervous."
The police officer, Hadley Zhang, said in a hurry.
Zion said coldly, "Do I look nervous?"
Hadley suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
Whale felt that Zion was indeed a coldblooded guy, so he quickly said, "Landon Hudson is a member of our caravan, but he has been on leave these days and has never come. As for why he died in the moat, we don't know."
"Is there anyone else in his family?"
Hadley subconsciously looked at Whale.
Whale shook his head and said, "He loves gambling. His wife ran away with someone a long time ago. She only has a son. He is not old, and seems to be less than a year old. His mother has always been looking after him. It is said that his mother was in poor health some time ago, so he asked for leave. Then we don't know. And the news you gave us now is that he is dead." "But someone said that Landon had done something private for Mr. Laurent some time ago."
Hadley looked at Zion.
Zion said coldly, "Do you mean that I killed him to silence him? Do you have any evidence? If you don't have any, I can sue you. Whale, write down his police number and I'll complain about it later."
Hadley suddenly panicked.
