My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 1032

The lady’s identity was revealed on the card—Anna Yard, president of the Ronney Group.

This can’t be right. Did I really bump into such a significant person while having a meal? No, she must be a swindler.

How was it possible that the lady Sophia had met on a casual day out was also a member of the Yard Family? Not to mention, the president of the Ronney Group?

Before Michael went to the Yard Residence, he repeatedly reminded her not to let her guard down and not to trust strangers so easily, especially the Cethosians.

But in actuality, those swindlers were only taking advantage of this sense of familiarity to swindle Cethosians.

Some of the Cethosians in this place were atrocious. They had originally followed the Yard Family over centuries ago and were now foreigners in disguise as Cethosians. Nonetheless, they were still against mainland Cethosians.

It was possible that the numerous Cethosian children at the black market were taken from their parents by those people.

While Sophia carefully fed the child in her arms, she was also thinking of a way to bring these children back to their parents.

Michael did not want to get the police involved as the police force here was also heavily corrupt and might also be part of this dark industry. If they made a report, it could ruin the business and lead those people to seek revenge for destroying their wealth.

Michael and Sophia were foreigners here. They had no power in someone else’s territory, so they were better off laying low.

Moreover, it might not be helpful to report these children here since their parents were probably no longer in the country. The local underworld was quite reasonable. They did not attract the attention of tourists and consumers. Hence, these children were probably sent in from somewhere else.

Essentially, finding their parents was like finding a needle in a haystack.

They could only take the children back to Cethos for now and worry about other things later.

Michael and Quinton returned at night.

“How did it go? Did you find the child?”

Sophia rushed out excitedly to ask them. Unfortunately, both of them came back empty-handed; not even a strand of a child’s hair was seen.

As expected, they did not manage to bring the child back.

How could it be that easy to convince the Yard Family to surrender one of their people? Even though Quinton had killed someone for them before, it was not much use.

Quinton’s mentor, the former Phantom Wolf, was once a security guard for the Yard Family.

No, he was not just a security guard. The Yard Family came from an imperial background. The former Phantom Wolf was probably an armed guard in the palace or the chief of the palace guards.

After that, for various reasons, he left the Yard Family and became a first-generation Phantom Wolf disciple; he became an assassin.

To the Yard Family, however, that friendship was completely worthless. To them, Quinton and his mentor were no more than dogs.

Michael was also a bit worn out. After coming in and taking off his coat, he asked, “Where are the children?”

Simultaneously, he went to open the bedroom door and found eight new small beds laid out with eight small children lying on each one.

Bubbles and Snowball were also sleeping inside the room. There was also a Ragdoll in the cat cage. The cat was a model Sophia had brought with her when she planned to work with the Ronney Group to launch a series of pet luxury goods. Since she was not looking to work with them anymore, the cat was used to keep watch on the children.

Looking at each of the children sleeping soundly, Michael felt satisfied and fulfilled.
