"You don''t have to do anything. We can sleep together when we''re done." Bet''s arm wrapped around her slender waist, their bodies tangling together.
However, Yvonne fell asleep before they were finished.
She was nestled in his arms, soft and fragrant, looking very docile.
Bet carried her to the bathroom, gently cleaned her up, changed her clothes, and then carried her back to bed.
He tucked her in and then sat on the edge of the bed, just watching her.
His phone was in the living room, but Bet still heard it vibrate.
Bet carefully got off the bed, left the bedroom, and picked up the phone from the coffee table.
It was Tobias, calling to update him on the investigation.
Bet: "Uncle."
Tobias: "Mm."
Bet: "It''s been several days. You must have found something."
Tobias: "We tracked down a battalionmander from the military district. We have him in custody, but he''s not talking."
Bet sneered. "They must have something on him. Talking won''t do him any good, but staying quiet might save his family."
Tobias: "You probably have a good idea of who''s behind this. The investigation has likely hit a dead end here. Once you''ve recovered, get back to the base as soon as possible. Yourmanding officer is retiring in the second half of the year. Your record is a bit thin, so you''ll need to n carefully if you want to take his position."
Bet: "I know. Don''t worry, I have a n."
Tobias: "Good. You''re a calcting man; I''m not worried."
After hanging up with Tobias, Bet called his aide, Simon, and gave him some instructions.
After a huge fight with Frank, Emma threw him out of the house.
With what had happened to Bet, Emma was clearly serious this time.
Frank definitely didn''t want a divorce, so he had his men forcibly deport Vanessa and her family.
Bodyguards escorted Vanessa and her husband, Omar, to the airport, with their son, Andy, trailing behind them, crying.
Mrs. Thompson Sr. naturally refused to let her granddaughter and great-grandson leave.
She clung to Andy, wailing and refusing to let go.
"Frank, you bastard, how can you be so cruel? Vanessa was away from home for so many years and she finally came back to me. How can you have the heart to send her away again?"
"Vanessa was just a child back then! She didn''t know any better. She just gave that woman Emma little
push Emma and Bet were both
fin''t they? Why must you
hurt my Vanessa!"
"Grandma, save me! Save me! I don''t want to go abroad again. I don''t want to leave my home! Vanessa cried hysterically, struggling to break free from the bodyguards.
But Frank remained unmoved. He waved his hand, signaling the bodyguards to force them into the car.
Vanessa shrieked and Omar struggled, but they were still forced into the car by the bodyguards, and Andy was tossed in after them.
Eden wheeled Mrs. Thompson Sr. out after them. She beat her chest. "Frank, if you dare to send them abroad, I''ll kill myself right here!"
Frank looked at her coldly. Her contorted expression was utterly hideous.
"Call the funeral home. Tell them to prepare for the old madam''s arrangements," Frank ordered coldly.
The bodyguard nodded in understanding, then took out his phone to call the funeral home.
