The Cherished Wife novel Chapter 876

Sean smirked as he unbuttoned his white coat. "There's a café downstairs. Mr. Langford, care to join me?"

Jordan, though puzzled, nodded and gestured for Sean to lead the way. "Please."

Once at the café, Sean sat down in a relaxed manner and ordered an Americano with no sugar. Jordan, more composed and formal as always, ordered a Blue Mountain.

The two sat facing each other. Jordan's proper demeanor made Sean, despite being a doctor, seem somewhat less professional by comparison.

Sean fiddled with his hands as he waited for their coffee to arrive. Once served, he made a welcoming gesture. "I wouldn't have guessed, Mr. Langford. You have quite the refined taste."

Jordan raised an eyebrow but merely sipped his coffee with his lips pressed tightly together. "I'm curious, Mr. Smith. What's this meeting really about?"

"What if I told you I've found news about Tania? How would you react?"

Jordan's hand froze, nearly spilling his coffee. His brows furrowed together as he met Sean's gaze. "What exactly are you implying? And what does this have to do with Layla's disappearance?"

A cold, uneasy feeling gripped Jordan's chest, but he tried to shake it off. He refused to let himself believe that Tania's and Layla's situations were connected.

Sean's smile widened. "You're a smart man, Mr. Langford. You should know I don't casually invite people for idle chat."

Jordan's expression darkened. "Then please, Mr. Smith, get to the point."

Sean chuckled softly, rubbing his chin as he spoke, "Do you remember what happened four years ago?"

"Four years ago?" Jordan's grip on his coffee cup tightened. "Are you saying Tania's departure was orchestrated by Layla?"

"This is the hospital's surveillance footage. The one you watched previously? I edited it. I have reason to believe that Layla had a hand in Tania's disappearance. Even Charles and Peter haven't been able to find her in the past three years. Who do you think can pull that off?"

"That makes it even less likely to be Layla," Jordan said. Layla might be cruel, but she did not have the ability to evade Charles and Peter. Whoever was behind this was far more powerful.

"Layla may not be capable on her own, but that doesn't mean she doesn't have someone supporting her." Sean's eyes gleamed. "Don't you want to know where Tania has been these past three years? How has she been? What happened to the baby she was carrying back then?"

Jordan's face turned ashen, and his fists clenched tightly. "Fine."

Sean smiled slyly. "No need to rush with your answer. Take your time and think about what you really want."

"There's no need. Where is she now? Take me to her." Jordan exhaled heavily. "As long as... As long as you can bring Tania back soon, I'll do whatever you ask."
