Chapter 512
“West Baker has taken her… Before Cody could finish, Jason waved his hand to stop him. It wasn’t him who was genuinely worried about Luna; it was Sophia. Whether he knew or not wasn’t necessary–what mattered was that Sophia needed to know
“Aaron, go and bring Sophia here. Tell her Mr. Gibson has news about Miss Baker’s whereabouts”
“Sure.” Aaron replied.
As Aaron left the room, Cody turned his head to look at the frail man on the bed and raised an eyebrow. “I haven’t congratulated you yet, Mr. Wilson, on your upcoming nuptials. I was supposed to return to Travoa in the next couple of days, but since you’re getting married, I’ll stay and attend the wedding before I leave.”
Jason detected the schadenfreude in Cody’s tone, and a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes. The pot shouldn’t call the kettle black, one day, Cody
would follow in his footsteps and wait for that day.
“I heard your daughter is turning three soon. I’ll visit the Gibson family and properly celebrate her birthday? Cody’s smile froze. Jason was still himself, never willing to let anything slide
“Considering we’ve faced hardships together, Mr. Wilson, I’d appreciate it if you could take good care of that mother and daughter for me?
Jason scoffed. “Britney is my adopted daughter. I’ll take responsibility for her safety. You don’t need to worry about it.”
Cody fell silent
At that moment, the door to the ward opened, and Sophia walked in. Cody suddenly said, “Then let me be the first to wish Mr. Wilson and Miss Ada a happy marriage and a lifetime of happiness together.”
Jason’s gaze was initially drawn to Sophia as she walked in. However, upon hearing Cody’s provocative words, his expression instantly turned cold. He thought, That bastard, deliberately trying to sow discord, isn the!”
“Sophia, you’re here. Have you had breakfast yet?” Jason asked.
Sophia ignored him and directed her gaze towards Cody “Please inform me of Luna’s whereabouts, Mr. Gibson
Cody sobered his expression and nodded. “Luna was under house arrest by West Baker on a private island in Vralice. I’ll have our intelligence officer send you the island’s exact location shortly. After that, it’s up to you, Miss Taylor.”
Sophia’s Ests clenched tightly. She pondered, “West Baker, that lunatic actually house arrested Luna. How had she managed these five years? Luna. was carefree and loved freedom; it must have shattered her spirit. Was she still the same warm–hearted person?”
Thank you, Mr. Gibson. I owe you a favor for this. Don’t hesitate to ask if you ever need anything in the future,” Sophia said.
Cody was about to respond, but Aaron’s report came just then. “Mr. Wilson, Miss Ada is here”
The atmosphere inside instantly turned rense. Sophia scoffed, turned around, and walked out. His fiancée was here- what was she lingering around
Tor!
Seeing this, Jason lifted the covers to follow, but as soon as his feet touched the ground, the pain from the wounds on his chest tore through him, forcing him to sit back down.
Cody stood up and patted his shoulder, smiling. “Hurry up and invite your fiancee in. Don’t keep her waiting too long.”
Jason parted his lips lightly and uttered words through his teeth, “Get our
Cody was speechless.
As Sophia left the ward, she discreetly planted a miniature listening device under the bed rail. She was determined to uncover Jason and Ada’s schemes.
A moment later, Aaron escorted Ada into the ward. After the door closed, Ada smiled and said. “Jason, today is a good day for marriage. I’ve contacted City Hall, and their staff will come shortly to handle our marriage registration.”
Jason stared coldly at her, his gaze icy like a blade. “Do you want to die?”
Ada, undaunted by his threatening gaze, coquettishly replied. “If I die, then your son with Sophia won’t survive either.”
In the hallway, Sophia abruptly halted in her tracks upon hearing those words through her earpiece. She thought, “What did she just say?”
