Chapter 717
Odell immediately halted his steps and looked at Cliff.“ Tell me.”
“Two months ago, Mrs. Carter boarded a plane at Glanchester Airport with Second Master Carter. The plane was headed to Galston’s capital, Woodville.”
Odelle’s gaze darkened. “Is she still in Woodville?”
“The private investigator said he used all his connections in Woodville but couldn’t find any traces of Mrs. Carter. She’s probably not in Woodsville any longer, but she’s definitely still somewhere in Galston.”
Galston was a developed coastal country. It was not very big, but it was not that small either. It was made up of more than ten cities of different sizes, and every city had a large population of locals and immigrants. There are even a few cities where criminal gangs are common. It’s quite a mixture of people.” Odell frowned. “Contact the local private investigators in Galston and continue the investigation.”
“Okay,” Cliff replied.”By the way, Young Master Carter, there’s some information that the private investigator discovered about Second Master Carter as well.”
Odell’s expression turned cold instantly.
Cliff said in a low voice, “Second Master Carter seems to be the leader of an organization with unknown motives. It has been operating underground and also with the government. The organization has handled many illegal businesses and is related to several famous underground organizations overseas.”
Odell snorted. “He’s really not that simple of a person.”
To think that he had thought that Thomas was just a naive fool whose only interest was playing the piano in the past. He had not expected him to turn out to be such a cunning fox.
Suddenly, the phone in Odell’s pocket rang.
He took his phone out. It was Sebastian who had called. He placed the phone to his ear. “What’s wrong, Sebastian?”
“Young Master Carter, you have to come back now,” Sebastian said urgently. “Madam Carter’s sister came right after you left. I thought she was here to visit Madam Carter, as well as the young miss, and young master. I didn’t expect her to tell the young miss and young master about Mrs. Carter and Second Master Carter. She even said that you and Mrs. Carter had already gotten a divorce long ago. The young miss is throwing a tantrum and demanding to leave home to look for her mom. The young master isn’t able to hold her back either.” Odell’s expression darkened. He immediately turned
around and walked outside. At the same time, he said, “ Ask Ben and Jacob to keep an eye on them. I’m heading back now.”
Cliff quickly went up to Odell and asked, “Did something happen, Young Master Carter?”
“It’s a family matter. Continue contacting the private investigators in Galston and offer them a high commission. Ask them to find that woman’s location as soon as possible!”
Cliff replied, “Okay. I’ll do it right now.”
The black MPV was speeding on the road.
Luckily, Isabel was still willing to talk to Liam and let him wipe her tears.
As Odell quickly walked over, he saw Liam wiping Isabel’s tears with a wet wipe.
The girl was sniffing and sobbing. She looked utterly pitiful.
Odell immediately became anxious. He quickly moved forward to take Isabel into his arms.
When Isabel saw him, she pouted and started crying more
pitifully. “Boo hoo… Baddie, please take me to find Mommy now. Izzy wants Mommy…”
Odell pressed her face to his chest as he moved to carry her upstairs.
After taking two steps, he turned toward Liam, who was still sitting on the floor. “You come along too.”
Liam did not say a word. He stood up obediently and followed Odell.
