After Divorce, I Became A Queen novel Chapter 219

Chapter 219 The Worried Mommy

She shouted and turned around in the villa a few times, but there was no one in sight, so she got a little anxious.

"Lewys, where's Theo?"

Lewys just served the dished for dinner on the table, "He should be in the room playing with Lego. Isn't he there?"

"No, he's gone."

Aurora had a send of foreboding, "I'll call him first." With that, she took out her phone and dialled Theodore's number.

Theodore, who was hiding in the closet, had had a hard time waiting for Sion to take Morgan to the living room. He came out of the closet and muttered in a small voice, "It's so stuffy, how could Momo stay inside for so long?"

He went to the window and took a few breaths. He was on the point of stretching his arms when his watch began to ring.

It was a loud voice.

Theodore subconsciously glanced at the door, hurriedly took the watch off and stuffed it into the cabinet in a panic.

Sion was reading a magazine while sitting on the sofa. He heard the ringing coming from Morgan's bedroom, and it was a kind of children's music. He instantly stared in that direction. Then he got up and walked to the room.

Morgan did not realise that their secret was about to be discovered by Sion since she was eating with Donna in the kitchen. Just as she was munching the meat appreciatively, Sion walked into her room.

When he came in, he found nothing changed, except that the breeze was blowing the curtains over the open widow.

Sion went over to the window and looked out but he found nothing.

What was that sound he heard?

Then the closet caught his attention. The two doors that were closed tightly seemed to be a great draw for him as if they were tempting him into opening them. Before that, it was because he was trying to open the closet that the little girl bumped her foot.

Was there something in there that she didn't want others to see?

Sion took a step over and pulled open the closet with some curiosity. However, he was disappointed by what was inside. There was nothing special in the closet, but a black watch that had fallen over the clothes. He leaned down to pick it up and felt some familiarity.

This was the watch that the little girl was holding before.

How came it fell in the closet?

When Sion was about to put the watch on the table, the thing in his hand rang again. It was still that familiar string of songs. Sion finally figured out the source of the ringtone he heard in the lounge.

With a closer look at the watch, he found the black watch looked like a toy. And it should be sensing any movement, so the watch reacted.

Sion chuckled lightly and muttered, "It can make a sound. Funny."

There was nothing special in the closet, so he checked the other two cabinets and walked out of the room with the watch.

When his footsteps were completely inaudible, Theodore, who was under the bed, let go of the hand covering his mouth and let out two big breaths.

Luckily he reacted quickly enough, otherwise, he would have been discovered by Sion. He moved a bit and was about to go out. But he suddenly stopped.

Theodore thought he would better stay under the bed for longer, in case Sion would suddenly come into the room again.

"Miss Robertson, what should we do now?"

Aurora pondered while saying, "I'll see what I can do, don't worry, Lewys. Theo might be smarter than other children, you need to pay more attention to him next time."

She was suggesting Lewys but not blaming him. After all, she knew better than anyone about her son.

"I see." Lewys felt more guilty while hearing what Aurora said, and his head lowered a little more.

Aurora then turned around and walked to the foyer. She took another car key and called Anna while walking.

She suspected that Theodore might have gone to cause some trouble for Sion.

"Miss?"

"Anna, Theodore snuck out of the house, and I suspect he went to Sion. Get someone to check the surveillance around the Carroll Group to see where he might be now."

"Got it." Anna heard the urgency in her words and immediately responded.

After hanging up the phone, Aurora started the car, feeling uneasy.

Although Theodore was a little smarter than the average kid, he was a little boy less than five years old, and he was more impulsive than others. Morgan had been already in Sion's place, Aurora did not want her son to be found by that man too.

She grabbed the steering wheel tight until the joints of her hands whitened. She drove faster and faster. If Sion found Theodore, he would certainly probe into her two kids, and if he found out anything, he might steal their custody.

Aurora took a deep breath. It was not the time to think about this now, and she hoped that nothing happened to Theodore only.
