Mr Carroll Went Crazy After Divorce

Jeff just remained silent, with his hostile eyes focusing on somewhere, bearing Sion’s punch one after another.

“What’s your purpose?”

Sion asked a question with every punch.

“Mommy! Daddy!”

Morgan’s voice of despair kept echoing in his head, causing pain in his heart and all his anger to arouse. Sion’s fists became harder and harder.

“Why did you hurt a kid?”Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Jeff clenched his fists tightly but couldn’t even lift them up, nor did he open his mouth. Hulk and Tan beside him watched with pity and wanted to climb over to help.

“Jeff!”

Jeff spat out blood from his mouth and had black eyes but still looked at them sternly and said, “Shut… up!”

He meant for them not to say anything. Although they were now suffering in Sion’s hands, there would be endless imprisonment awaiting them if they were handed over to the police after admitting what they had done. Sion had ways to keep them locked up forever.

“You’re pretty tough.”

Sion kicked Jeff then turned around to look at the other two.

“Do you have anything to say?”

Tan and Hulk glanced at each other before lowering their heads in silence.

Nevaeh didn’t dare appear at the door but could faintly see someone on the second floor not far away from her position below the factory wall. She circled around under the factory wall looking for any back doors or gaps besides that main entrance gate, only to find a dog hole behind a pile of grass. Under scorching sun rays, Nevaeh’s makeup on her face had already smudged off while her anxiousness made her more irritated than ever.

They had been in there for so long now. Had he found out something?

But she thought Jeff wouldn’t spill so quickly like that. If he did admit everything outright then what awaited him would be police custody followed by prison.

Nevaeh steadied herself as she looked towards where they were inside of factory before turning back towards her car.

Inside of factory, three men lay paralyzed on the ground like cripples with injuries all over their bodies, while Sion straightened out his sleeves-he was still neatly dressed, with some fine sweat beads on his forehead.

The bodyguards next to him stared dumbfoundedly in shock. They had just witnessed a one-sided beatdown. Only David remained unfazed; he knew Sion was skilled and could easily take on ten men if he wanted to go all out.

Sion didn’t wear his jacket and had his hands in his pockets. His anger from the earlier fight slowly dissipated, and he spoke coldly, “You better keep acting tough.”

Jeff lay on the ground with his fingers twitching. He tried to speak but couldn’t find the strength, then suddenly collapsed onto the ground.

David rushed over to check on him before standing up again and saying calmly, “Mr Carroll, he’s passed out.”

Sion glanced coldly at Jeff lying on the ground; they were nothing special.

“Keep an eye on them,” Sion ordered several bodyguards with an indifferent look in his eyes that lingered for a moment before moving away pointlessly.

“Let’s go.” Said Sion.

David gave some of the bodyguards a nod before following behind Sion as they left.

Late at night, the sky was like a black curtain with only sparse stars visible without any trace of moonlight.

Outside the abandoned factory gate stood Nevaeh, who moved stealthily along the walls, making slight rustling sounds when she brushed against dry grasses.

Nevaeh looked around cautiously. She was still a little fearful because she knew she had to make this trip tonight no matter what happened. She was well aware of Sion’s methods; if those guys couldn’t hold it together and spilt her secret, things could not be more terrible.

Nevaeh gritted her teeth as she crawled through that hidden dog hole into their hideout.

There were ten bodyguards in total. Probably Jeff, Hulk and Tan had been knocked unconscious during daytime hours, plus it was now late at night, so everyone had loosened up somewhat. The two guards by the door were drowsy while two others inside already slept soundly.

Nevaeh surveyed around until spotting a side drainpipe where she climbed up quietly trying not to make any noise. Two guards guarded the stairs and leaned against the wall, snoring loudly. She breathed easy, knowing that others must have found somewhere else to sleep since Jeff’s group lay motionless like dead bodies scattered across floors below.

Proudly smirking slightly, Nevaeh jumped down lightly.

She was wearing a waist bag, where there were sleeping pills bought from special channels as gifts for the three of them inside.

“They had done so much, and this will be a good result for them.” Nevaeh thought to herself.

She glanced at the doorway and quickly took out sleeping pills from her bag. She didn’t hesitate to stuff them into the mouths of the three, one after another. She only wanted to save herself now, while their lives were insignificant.

All the sleeping pills had been stuffed into their mouths, and she used a doctor’s technique to make sure they swallowed the pills. After that, Nevaeh looked at the unresponsive three with a cruel smile on her face, picked up any dropped pills from the ground and left in reverse order.

Aurora had just received Mr L’s message and immediately called Theodore over.

“Sweetheart, call your sister quickly; Mommy has something to tell her.”

“Okay!”

Theodore didn’t ask any questions but dialled Morgan’s phone number directly.

“Theo…”

It took quite some time before Morgan answered; her voice was somewhat groggy as if she had just woken up from sleep.

Aurora took over the watch with some heartache, “Baby girl, are you asleep?”

“Mommy!” Morgan instantly became alert, “No, I just fell asleep for a while. What happened Mommy?”

Aurora spoke softly, “Are you alone right now?

“Yeah, I don’t know where Dad went. Do you want me to find him?” There was still some excitement in Morgan’s heart. She thought Aurora was about to forgive her dad.

“No.” Aurora looked worried, “Listen carefully to what Mommy is about to say. Don’t trust anyone easily or accept anything strange that someone gives you, especially water or weird pills. Do you understand?”

Morgan was confused but tried hard to remember seriously, “I got it, Mommy.”

Even though she didn’t know what it meant exactly, she knew that whatever Mommy said must be taken seriously.

“You’re such a good girl.” Aurora knew that she would remember it well so she breathed out briefly and then said again, “Now go back to sleep baby girl; mommy will come to see you when there’s time.”

“Okay.”

After Aurora hung up the phone, Theodore curiously asked, “Mommy, why can’t Momo eat things given by other people? Is someone trying hurt her again?”

He was more sensitive than ordinary children and could hear key points right away. Aurora just smiled at him and said, “No, I think Momo has just left the hospital and she’s recovering, so she should watch what she eats.”

She said so, for she didn’t want Theodore to worry about his sister.

“That’s it,” Theodore replied.

Though he was still slightly incredulous, he didn’t ask more but went back to sleep. When there was only Aurora, she looked at the night outside through the window, with a gloomy mood that could not dissipate.

Things were much more complicated and dangerous than she had expected, and that was why she called Morgan urgently at this hour.
