Shattered 160

    Prisci protected that child so fiercely, and they weren’t even rted?


    Then whose child was Noah?


    Tania also regretted it. After hearing about it from Larissa, she had forgotten to tell her husband.


    “Let Larissa go find Wes. Wes will have a way.” Dillon didn’t want to go to jail. After thinking for a moment, he added, “If Wes won’t help, let Bonnie go find Frank.”


    Surely Bonnie wouldn’t just ignore her own son.


    Tania frowned. Her husband was so useless.


    But she couldn’t really just let him rot in jail.


    When she got back to the car, Larissa anxiously asked, “How’s Dad?”


    Tania took her daughter’s hand, tears streaming down her face. “Larissa, your father did something foolish…”


    Larissa hadn’t expected that Dillon didn’t know Prisci and Noah weren’t mother and son, and had even tried to kidnap that child.


    She gritted her teeth. “I’ll go find Wes.”


    Larissa was a favorite at the Carlton Group and got into Wesley’s office almost unimpeded. Wesley wasn’t there, and all kinds of documents were piled on the desk.


    She sat for a while, but couldn’t sit still and began pacing back and forth.

    A stack of documents slid off the desk.


    Larissa hurried to pick them up, but when she got to the third file, her hand froze.


    What she held in her hand was a file on Wesley’s investigation into Prisci.


    Larissa read through it from beginning to end, her gaze lingering on thest page.


    “Ms. Wilkinson of Baritel has two apprentices who look very much alike.”


    Very much alike?


    What does that mean?


    Larissa held her breath, countless images shing through her mind.


    And then, a bold idea urred to her.


    Her heart was pounding.


    Atst, she put the documents/away and ced them back on the table.


    As soon as Wesley came in, she immediately said, “Wes, please save my father.”


    Wesley knew what Dillon had done.


    His expression grew serious. “Dillon kidnapped Noah, caused him to have an episode, and the one who wants him in prison is Luciano. You know how powerful Luciano’s name is–I don’t need to tell you, do I?”


    Larissa choked up with sadness. “But my father didn’t mean to.”


    Wesley had always disliked Dillon. Before, it was just petty things, but

    now it was different.


    Now, Dillon had crossed his bottom line.


    “For his own gain, he tried to force Grandma to marry. When she refused, he kidnapped a sick child. Are you saying all these things he did were unintentional?”


    Larissa was at a loss for words.


    After all, she had also yed a part in forcing Bonnie to marry.


    “Larissa, stay out of this,” Wesley said coldly.


    He would not help.


    Larissa pleaded again, but Wesley remained unmoved.


    She had no choice but to leave.


    But her mind was still preupied with the contents of that file.


    After finishing his work, Wesley went to pick up Prisci.


    When the two met, there was only silence between them.


    Wesley thought Prisci would question him about hiding the truth about the drinking incident.


    But Prisci didn’t mention a single word about it.


    They returned to Chaston Vi, had dinner, and went to bed at ten. She neither asked nor made a fuss.


    After hesitating for a moment, Wesley took the initiative to exin, “Larissa just identally took the wrong ss. She didn’t do it on purpose.”

    Prisci nodded. “Mm.”


    It wasn’t that she didn’t want to ask, but she knew it was pointless.


    He always had a special tolerance for Larissa.


    And for Noah’s illness, she still had to beg him, had to humble herself and act meek.


    Wesley stood for a while. Seeing that Prisci had nothing more to say, he turned and went to the study.


    Prisci sat in a daze for a long time before slowly curling up under the covers to sleep.


    The next morning, the two ate breakfast in silence.


    It was as if the warmth of the past few days had all been an illusion.


    Even the servants could sense something was wrong between them, and they all spected about what the couple had argued about this time.


    Halfway through the meal, Prisci received a call from the caregiver, saying she had been driven out by Tania.


    Prisci’s heart tightened. She knew Tania was anxious now and was going to bully Bonnie.


    She put down her utensils and stood up to leave.


    Wesley grabbed her arm. “I’ll take you.”


    “No need.” Prisci shook off his hand and refused directly.


    But soon, Wesley grabbed her wrist again.


    “Prisci, I said I’ll take you,” he insisted.

    Prisci was just as firm. “I said there’s no need.”


    The already tense atmosphere instantly became even more strained.


    Wesley frowned. “Prisci.”


    Prisci’s eyes were full of sarcasm. “Are you afraid I’ll hurt your dear sister Larissa?”
