Chapter 501: Someone is investigating him
-Can you find out who Alonso’s fiancée is?
-Are you still suspicious of Alonso?
Lucas said with wide eyes and a look of surprise. He thought that after Dylan’s explanation he would think again, after all it really was all a coincidence.
What if his hasty investigation of Alonso fell apart now, and not only did Alonso no longer help Dylan, but he got so angry about it that he turned it against Dylan?
-I don’t want to miss any clues, any possibilities.
After all, in one careless moment, he was missing out on the person he cared about most.
-All right, I’ll look into it for you.
Lucas shrugged and agreed.
He understood Dylan’s feelings too, and it would be good to check and make sure that Alonso had nothing to do with Vanessa, and that Dylan would let go of his obsession.
Little did Lucas know that it was thanks to Dylan’s insistence on this point that he might discover something that would shock him.
Shortly after Alonso took Vanessa back to the other city, Graciela followed the trail Alonso had secretly left for her. But for her, it was just one step too late.
-You bastard!
Graciela’s face was blue with anger, her eyes full of contempt and resentment.
-A bit of everything! I’m not happy about this, I’m not happy about this.
-It’s all right, miss, we can find Young Master Du if we hurry this time.
Despite the comfort of those around her, Graciela’s face was still ugly.
She vowed that next time she would find Alonso.
If he insisted on being with that woman called Vanisa, he would destroy her. When that woman no longer existed, Alonso would surely be with her.
Peaceful City.
-I’m surprised they caught you.
Lucas’s whole body froze at the news coming from his men.
He looked at Dylan with wide eyes and a stunned look on his face.
-Is there a result?
Dylan had a feeling he would soon find Vanessa.
Although his heart was very excited and agitated, he still seemed calm and collected on the surface.
-You’ll see for yourself.
Lucas said he was in shock and needed to calm down.
Dylan picked up Lucas’s phone and looked at the email he had just opened.
In it were the findings of the investigation, along with photos.
Dylan found it hard to keep his composure on his face when he saw his longing face again after a three-year gap.
His grip on the phone tightened, his fingertips turning white with the effort.
He looked greedily at Vanessa’s picture, the familiar smile on her face, and the melancholy that had been haunting him for years vanished in an instant.
-Vanessa.
Dylan couldn’t help but mutter Vanessa’s name under his breath.
Whatever happened, he would find her.
-Can you find out where Alonso is now?
-It’ll take time.
Lucas had finally finished digesting the news that had shocked him, and the expression on his face returned to its usual cynicism.
-What a surprise, the man Alonso almost got engaged to was Vanessa. If you hadn’t suspected him and hadn’t had to investigate, it was a clue that would have escaped us.
Fortunately, fortunately.
The idea that his wife was almost engaged to another man made Dylan’s eyes fill with sadness.
Of course, this anger was directed at Alonso.
-But Alonso is no gentleman either. Even if he didn’t know who Vanessa was before, he should have known who she was the last time I asked him to help me investigate. But that bastard kept it from me and pretended to give us information. What a treacherous thing to do.
Lucas said angrily.
He felt that he had simply overestimated Alonso before, he had thought so much of him that now he was getting a slap in the face.
How tragic.
-You don’t think he’s really in love with Vanessa, do you?
Lucas realized the crisis as an afterthought when he finished speaking, and he hardened his face to look at Dylan, and sure enough, he saw that Dylan’s face was grim and his whole body looked like it was going to explode at any moment.
He immediately stood up, not daring to ask for his mobile phone: “I suddenly remembered that I have something to do, I’ll go first.
After saying that, Lucas left as if running away.
He didn’t dare to stay, what if Dylan used him as a punching bag.
As for his mobile phone…, he had Vanessa’s picture. Dylan had only seen his beloved wife for a long time, and he still hadn’t seen enough of her. So the phone stayed for Dylan to ease his thoughts.
Dylan went back to reading the contents of the email.
A glint of disgust appeared in Dylan’s eyes as he thought of Cecilia, who had been leaning on his shoulder the last time he was in c-town, suddenly saying she’d seen his mother.
If he’d taken it seriously then and sent someone to look for him, wouldn’t he have missed Vanessa again?
-Vanessa.
Dylan looked at Vanessa’s picture on his phone and called her softly in a voice full of longing.
A certain country.
-Sir, someone is investigating you.
-Did you find out who it is?
-It’s Mr. Lucas.
Lucas?
Why had he suddenly started investigating? Had he sensed something?
Alonso narrowed his eyes at the thought. Luckily, he wasn’t going to let Graciela find him again this time, so he’d blocked out the information, otherwise Lucas might have followed her and found his way here.
He’d underestimated Lucas’s friend Dylan.
-Now that they know Vanessa’s with me, they won’t give up easily. -They’re not going to give up easily.
-Keep an eye on things for a while, and let me know if you see anyone suspicious. Also, sweep the evidence and don’t let anyone find out where I’m going.
-Yes.
Alonso waved his hand and his men quickly left.
Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, frowning out at the garden where flowers bloomed with abandon, a cold glint crossed Alonso’s eyes.
He wouldn’t let anyone take Vanisa, no matter what.
-Miss Vanisa.
The man who had left in a hurry saw Vanessa and nodded to her.
-Hey.
replied Vanessa, watching the other man’s hasty departure with confusion.
Could it be that something had happened? Everyone around Alonso seemed to be more cautious these days.
-Vanesa.
Alonso saw Vanessa and called out to her with a smile.
The flash of doubt that had just arisen in his mind was interrupted, and nothing remained if he thought about it more carefully.
-Nice day, don’t you want to go for a walk with me?
Vanessa gestured for Alonso to come upstairs.
There were many flowers in the garden and they were blooming particularly beautifully. She was going to pick some and try to make some flower cakes. It would be a good idea to find something to do to enrich himself, since he had nothing to do anyway.
-Have fun, I have to take care of some work stuff.
-That’s fine. Go and get to work.
Alonso turned back inside before Vanessa continued picking the right flowers from the bush with her delicate bamboo basket.
