Chapter 659 Explanation

After comforting Amelia and Tony, Oscar headed to the study with Hugo.

“Have you gotten someone to check on those two car plate numbers?” Oscar asked with his hands

behind his back.

“Yes, Boss. We’ve already checked. However, both cars belong to normal families, and both families

have already made a police report. As such, it doesn’t seem like those cars would give us any clues on

who the culprit is,” Hugo replied, bowing slightly. After pausing for a moment, the man continued, “I’m

so sorry that Anthony had to undergo such a shock because of my carelessness.”

“It’s not your fault. You and Ashton have done a good job. It’s all because of you that Tony didn’t get

hurt. When we get back, I’ll reward both of you handsomely. Also, regarding the injury on Ashton’s arm,

what did the doctor say?” Oscar asked in concern, showing care for his subordinates.

“I called him just now. He said that it’s nothing serious and that he’ll recover in a few days.”

“Give him a few days off and ask him to rest well at home.”

“Yes, Boss. I will let him know.”

Oscar walked to the window, and as he gazed at the scenery outside that was only illuminated by the

moonlight, his eyes darkened.

“Get Kurt to help you investigate who planned the attack. Start from June and Jennifer,” Oscar ordered.

“Yes, Boss. I’ll let Kurt know when I get back.”

“All right. You may go now.”

After a moment of hesitation, Hugo said, “Boss, when I was escaping with Mr. Anthony just now, I

realized that he’s unusually brave and calm. Besides, he’s also extremely intelligent. If not for his

reminder, perhaps Ashton and I wouldn’t have been able to escape from those men that easily. You

should consider letting Mr. Anthony take an IQ test. It’s really difficult for me to treat him like a normal

three-year-old kid.”

“There’s no need for that. He’s just my son with Amelia, so you just need to treat him with utmost

loyalty like how you treat me. As for whether he’s interested in taking over the organization in the

future, I’ll leave it to him to decide. I wouldn’t force him to do that if he’s not interested,” Oscar said.

Hugo lowered his head and replied, “Understood, Boss. I’ll make a move first then.”

Oscar nodded in response.

After Hugo left, Oscar continued standing beside the window for a while before returning to the

bedroom. However, before he reached the bed, he could already hear Amelia talking in her sleep.

“Tony, Tony! No, don’t touch my son! He’s just a child. Please don’t!” she said in a trembling voice.

Oscar walked over and sat by the bed before smoothing out the crease between the woman’s brows.

“Don’t worry. I’ll never let anyone touch Tony. As long as I’m here, I’ll protect both of you,” the man said

gently.

Amelia’s frown gradually disappeared as she rubbed her forehead against the man’s hand and

continued sleeping soundly.

After changing into his pajamas, Oscar headed to the bathroom to take a shower. Then, he lay on the

bed and hugged his wife and son.

The next morning, Amelia rang her office to inform them that she had to stay home that day to take

care of her son as he was slightly traumatized by the attack the previous day.

After requesting the day off, the woman said to her husband, “Oscar, I feel like quitting my job. Tony is

still so young. I’m worried that he’ll feel lonely if neither of us has time for him.”

Oscar knew that that was just an excuse the woman had made up and that she was still feeling

unsettled by the fact that Tony was almost taken away by those men the day before.

The man nodded and replied, “If you don’t want to work, you can quit your job anytime. It’s all right.”

Carrying Tony in her arms, Amelia stroked her son’s hair gently. She had already made up her mind to

resign as she was indeed terrified when she saw how disheveled the boy looked the previous night.

She was worried that if she was not by his side, she would be the last one to know if something really

happened to him.

Tony got up from his mother’s arms, saying, “Mommy, are you going to stop working?”

“Yup. Are you happy that Mommy will have time to accompany you every day from now onward?”

“I don’t want that,” Tony rejected Amelia’s suggestion resolutely.

Amelia froze when she heard that.

“Tony, why? Don’t you like it that Mommy will have more time to spend with you?”

With a serious expression on his face, the boy replied, “Mommy, there’s no need for you to quit your job

just to accompany me. You look so happy whenever you talk to Big Meanie about work every night. I

don’t want you to give up on your career just because of me. You will be sad if you do that. It would be

just like before when you couldn’t see and kept pretending that you were happy. Tony doesn’t like

seeing Mommy like that.”

Amelia was shocked by her son’s words. She did not expect that the boy, who was merely a toddler,

could sense that she was pretending to be happy.

“Tony, do you really not want Mommy to quit my job and spend more time with you?”

“No need. Tony is a little man now. I can protect myself. I also want to grow up to be as powerful as

Ultraman so that I can protect Mommy and not let anyone harm you.”

“That’s my good boy.”

Due to Anthony’s insistence, Amelia dropped the idea of resigning and continued working as a

designer. She even rose to fame because of her perseverance, with her talent in design being widely

recognized.

But of course, that would only happen further into the future.

Amelia had specially taken one whole day of leave to play with Anthony, who was overjoyed. Moreover,

Oscar had also decided to work from home that day so that he could spend more time with his family.

As both of his parents were with him, Anthony was in high spirits and filled with energy. When Oscar

was taking a break, the boy even requested to ride on his shoulders while the man ran around the

house.

It was the first time the father and son duo played together in such a carefree manner, and both of them

enjoyed themselves thoroughly.

Meanwhile, Hugo had made some progress in his investigation. They had caught one of the men who

wanted to kidnap Anthony that night. That man had confessed that it was a man with the last name

“Walker” who had paid them to do it. Those men were all outlaws who had committed a few crimes

after being released from prison recently and wanted to strike it big by kidnapping the heir of the

Clinton family.

When Oscar heard that the mastermind was one of the Walkers, his gaze turned cold at once, and a

murderous glint flashed in his eyes.

“Boss, I investigated further using the information he had provided and found out that that Walker guy

is an extremely distant relative of Mr. Walker.”

“Continue checking if the Walker family is involved in it,” Oscar ordered.

If those men were really sent by the Walker family, he would definitely make sure they pay the price.

The Walker family had better not be so stupid.

“Yes, Boss.”

After hanging up, Amelia hugged Oscar from the back and asked, “What’s the matter?”

“Hugo just called and informed me that it was a bunch of outlaws who had tried to kidnap Tony, and

one of them had confessed that it was someone with the last name ‘Walker’ who had hired them to do

it,” the man answered honestly without hiding anything from his wife.

A cold glint shone in Amelia’s eyes when she heard that.

“Is it Noah or Isabella?” she asked in a frosty tone.

“We’re not sure yet. They’d better not be so foolish. If it’s really them, they would definitely get a hard

time from me,” Oscar replied, narrowing his eyes.

“Oscar, if you find out that they were the ones who did it, you must not hide it from me. I can tolerate

others making things difficult for me, but I will never allow anyone to harm my son,” Amelia said through

gritted teeth with anger thrumming through her veins.

“Sure. I’ll definitely let you know.”

Amelia rubbed her face against the man’s back gently before saying softly, “Oscar, we have never

offended anyone. Why would they lay their hands on our son?”

Hearing that, Oscar turned around and put his arms around his wife’s waist before replying, “Stop

thinking about it. Just let me deal with it.”

Amelia nodded.

It took Hugo a few days to find out that it was a woman who had instructed those men to kidnap Tony.

At the same time, he was told by another outlaw that a foreigner had also approached them. That man

had told them that if they could bring Tony to him, he would give them a large sum of money so that

they could leave the city.

That was all the information Hugo had managed to obtain. He had tried to find out more but to no avail.

Oscar, who was sitting at his desk, said coldly while fiddling with a pen between his fingers, “A man?

Foreigner?”

“Yes, Boss. I tried to investigate further, but that man seemed to have counter-surveillance measures in

place. As such, that’s all we know for now,” Hugo replied with his head lowered, feeling guilty about the

lack of results.

“You can stop investigating now. I know what to do,” Oscar said.

“Yes, Boss,” Hugo replied.

After hanging up, Oscar’s expression darkened.

“June, it seems like you haven’t learned your lesson from the video previously. I’ll have to try harder

then,” Oscar said to himself, narrowing his eyes.

Meanwhile, June was currently in a state of panic. Apart from having to find resources to delete the

video that was circulating online, the man also needed to hold an overnight meeting to resolve the

situation of the company’s plummeting shares. Moreover, as he was a foreigner and did not have a

strong foundation in the country, there were a few additional obstacles that he faced.

June could feel his head throbbing. He had reached out to the Yard family for help but was rejected.

Being a prideful man, he did not try asking again after that. Instead, he chose to ask his parents, who

were overseas, for help.

The Adertons’ backup arrived very soon. Members of the core technical department pulled a few all-

nighters at June’s company and finally managed to keep the company’s financial losses to a minimum.

After returning to his office, June sat down and massaged his temples. He had gotten less than four

hours of sleep every night for the past few days and was feeling extremely fatigued from the immense

amount of stress he was facing at work.

After resting for a moment, he took out his phone and called Cassie, but no one picked up.

He narrowed his eyes and looked at the phone screen before picking up his suit jacket and leaving the

room.

“June, where are you going? We have another meeting later in the evening.” A towering foreigner

stopped June when he saw him leaving.

“Postpone it to tomorrow. I have something to settle,” June replied while entering the lift, without even

turning his head.

After that, he drove straight to the Yard Manor. Even though the security guard at the entrance of the

manor did not stop June from entering, his attitude toward the latter was not as enthusiastic as before.

It seemed like the man had already seen June’s scandalous video on the internet.

Nevertheless, June could not be bothered about the security guard’s opinion of him and drove straight

into the compound and parked his car. When he was walking toward the door, he spotted Cassie, who

had also just gotten out of her car.

Indeed, Lady Luck was on his side.
