Rotten Twins: Making a CEO a Daddy novel Chapter 343

Mark looked at her. “I’m really afraid that something might happen to you!”

“So this incident was because someone wanted to frame me?” Lyla asked.

Mark nodded.

Lyla took a deep breath. “Sigh, how many unethical things did I do in my past life for so many people to want to kill me in this life?” Although she sighed, her tone was not that frustrated.

Mark looked at her. “You saved the earth in your last life, so God made it so you were born beautiful, causing people to be jealous!”

“I like that explanation!” Lyla laughed.

Mark reached out, held her hand, and kissed the back of it before placing it on his chest. “Promise me that you won’t lose it again!”

“Don’t worry. This time, I know how to protect myself!”

Mark nodded but held her hand with more strength.

……

“Mommy, wait!” She was just about to enter the door when she was stopped by Hansel and Gretel.

“Why?”

“Drive away bad luck!” The kids pretended to sprinkle water around her.

Lyla rolled her eyes at them. “Since when did you believe in this?”

“Hey, it’s better to believe it than to not!”

“Are you done?”

“Done!”

Only then did Lyla enter.

“Mommy, have some water!” Gretel diligently brought her water to drink.

“Good girl!” Lyla took it and rubbed Gretel’s head like she was a puppy.

“Mommy, they didn’t do anything to you while you were in there, right?” Gretel asked worriedly.

“Do you think we’re in ancient times, and they can torture me?”

“We’re just worried about you!”

“Don’t worry, I’m fine!”

Seeing Lyla come back and being increasingly served on, Mark was all kinds of upset.

He held out his hand. “Where’s my water?”

“Oh, go get it yourself!”

“Why does your mommy have a glass but not me?”

“Mommy is a woman. Are you one too?”

It seemed that there was no way to refute that.

Mark obediently got up and went to get water.

Lyla did not look like she just came out of the detention center, and instead looked like she was returning home after gaining glory. She knew that Hansel and Gretel must be worrying about her, so she could not let them worry.

After talking for a while, Mark held his cup and walked towards them. “Alright, now we can get back to business!”

Everyone fell silent at that.

“Why isn’t anyone speaking?” Mark asked them.

“It’s not that we don’t want to say it, it’s that we don’t know how to say it!” Hansel went around and sat beside Lyla.

“Yeah, there’s no clue at all!”

“As long as it was done by a person, there will be a trace!” Mark said.

“Although that’s the case, we still haven’t found anything until now!”

“That means you weren’t attentive enough!” Mark said and looked at them. “Since when did you become so passive?”

“Ugh…”

“Is this what you guys learned at Hell’s Angels?”

Lingo became unhappy when she heard this. She was originally unwilling to participate, but now that she heard this, how could she not refute? “Mark Pattinson, use your words properly, and don’t resort to personal attacks!”

“I’m just being factual!”

“The truth is that people from your Ghost Gate are the same!” Lingo said, trying to maintain the reputation of Hell’s Angels.

Hansel nodded.

Gretel also nodded.

Mark finally compromised. “Ok, I misspoke!”

“Just be more careful next time!”

Mark, “...”

He was exasperated and felt that there was no speaking reason with women.

“Alright, be serious!” Hansel said, “Mommy, have you had any unpleasant encounters with anyone recently?” Hansel asked Lyla.

Lyla thought about it seriously. “It hasn’t been long since I came back. I haven’t argued with anyone and haven’t made any enemies, so I don’t know either!”

“Lingo said that Mommy is born with a body that attracts people to hate her, so there was no point in asking!”

Lyla, “...” She looked at Lingo.

Lingo also looked exasperated. ‘These little devils.’

“I think this has nothing to do with myself. It’s because of someone else!” Then, she turned to Mark.

Was this what ‘getting shot while lying down’ meant?

However, since Lyla said so, he also admitted it.

“Yes, it’s my fault. This time, I’ll protect you and won’t let you suffer any harm!” Mark said tenderly.

“I don’t think it’s necessarily Delilah. It might be someone around her!”

“Delilah isn’t close with her relatives, and they don’t treat her that well. Her parents are also depressed because of their son’s case, so they definitely wouldn’t bother with something like this!”

“What about her pursuers, such as people who have a crush on her?” Hansel said, “Didn’t we suggest that before?”

Mark pursed his lips at that. “Most of the people she’s involved with in the past few years are for business, and there are no men in her life. I’ve checked it and there’s nothing suspicious!”

Hansel frowned. “Daddy, you said that as long as it was done by a person, there would be traces. Mommy didn’t do it, so there’ll definitely be traces to follow!”

“I’m not worried about that. I’m worried that the person isn’t trying to find a scapegoat but to kill two birds with one stone and get rid of both your mommy and Zack Parker. If that’s the case, that person must be found!”

“The key now is that there are no clues!” Gretel said.

Mark thought about it. “Let’s take this from the beginning!”

Hansel was also baffled. With his high IQ, he had never encountered such a thing!

Piers immediately nodded and got up to get the information.

Soon, he came back and gave it to Hansel. “Boss!”

Hansel took it and looked at them. “Since we’ve determined the direction, if we look carefully, we’ll definitely find something!”

“That’s true. I’ll help you, Brother!” Gretel said.

Hansel nodded.

Although Lingo was reluctant, she was also one of the people with a high IQ, so she had to participate.

Lyla and Mark also joined in.

Only Piers silently returned to his original position and continued to eat like a glutton.

The coffee table was filled with information about Delilah and Zack. They picked it up to see.

Night after night, piece after piece, they read carefully.

Piers ate and watched, not thinking about participating at all. He just continued to eat without stopping.

After a long time, Gretel saw something and said, “There’s something strange!”

“Where?”

As soon as she spoke, all their gazes looked over.

“Let me see!” Mark took it and looked carefully. Indeed, something was off.

“And here, Delilah was harassed by a crazy pursuer last year, and then that crazy pursuer also appeared in the car accident, but his injuries seemed to be much more serious than Zack. He lost a leg!” Gretel said.

Everyone frowned at that. If they looked at it that way, it did seem like something was off.

“Could it be that there’s a knight in shining armor by Delilah’s side all along?” Hansel opened his mouth to ask.
