Chapter 219
Adrian, who originally had no expression on his face, narrowed his eyes dangerously upon hearing this. “Not in this hotel? Then where did she go?” “Mr. Blackwood, we don’t know that. After all, she is just a guest at the hotel, and it is not our place to know her whereabouts”
Jacob nodded in agreement. “That’s true p>
“But Adrian suspiciously narrowed his eyes and stared at the front desk staff. “Did she really leave, or are you deliberately hiding it for her?” “No, she really left, and it was not long before you came p>
Upon hearing this, Adrian’s face became even more grim.
She left when he arrived.
Last time it was at her place, she conveniently wasn’t there when he went. And now, as soon as he came, she left. Was this a coincidence or intentional? Thinking about this, Adrian swept his gaze over the front desk and asked coldly, “Did she leave on her own p>
The front desk staff were taken aback.
Afterward, everyone looked at each other in confusion.
“No, it’s not,” Adrian finally couldn’t restrain himself and sneered.
He turned around and walked away, no longer patient to listen to what the receptionist had to say next. Jacob quickly followed suit.
“I didn’t expect Ms. Hansen to leave so coincidentally, Mr. Blackwood. Should we send someone to find out where she went?” he asked as they walked.
While speaking, he accidentally bumped into someone ahead. Jacob nervously took a few steps back, not expecting the person to suddenly stop, showing panic on his face. “I’m sorry, Mr. Blackwood. Did I hurt you?” Jacob asked cautiously.
“A coincidence?” Adrian coldly glared at him, his gaze colder than ice shards on the face. “Do you think it looks like a coincidence p>
Jacob pursed his lips and cautiously asked, “If it’s not a coincidence, then is Ms. Hansen intentionally avoiding you p>
After uttering those words, Adrian’s face grew even more stormy.
Seeing this, Jacob shrank back in fear, sighing.
Seeing Adrian still standing in place, he asked, “So, Mr. Blackwood, are we still going to look for Ms. Hansen p>
Look for her? Adrian sneered inwardly. To see her with another man?
Adrian turned and walked away.
Jacob couldn’t grasp his thoughts at all, so he hurried to catch up.
“Mr. Blackwood, are we going or not?” he asked.
The only response he got was the sound of the car door shutting.
Soon, the car started, leaving in a hurry and even arrogantly spraying exhaust fumes in his face.
Jacob wondered, why is it always him who gets hurt?
After arranging accommodation, Eva immediately transferred sixty thousand dollars to Michael.
“Here’s six months’ worth of rent for you p>
Michael smiled and accepted, saying, “Alright, got it p>
“How much did the nanny cost originally p>
Considering the cost of three shifts, it was probably quite high, so Eva decided to cut expenses and only hire one nanny.
After all, the two children still needed to go to school, and the nanny didn’t need to spend too much time taking care of them.
At night, she doesn’t have to work, so she can accompany the children herself.
“Not much. Let’s not argue over this money, alright? Over the years, you’ve brought a lot of benefits to the Cooper Group. Can’t I give you a farewell gift?” Eva asked, “Just a farewell gift p>
“Yes p>
“Alright then, I’ll just hire a month-long maternity nanny. Otherwise, I won’t need any of them p>
“Okay, as long as you’re happy p>
In the end, Eva only hired a maternity nanny for three months and paid the rent for him. She felt much relieved, and it was getting late, so Michael left quickly.
After he left, Eva prepared the beds and turned on the heating for the two children, letting them rest. She then entered the study with a notebook.
Michael had thought carefully on her behalf. The study in this house was very large, with a large French window and a floor-to-ceiling bookshelf next to it, there was even a small ladder.
Eva really liked this kind of environment.
However, she didn’t have the mood to appreciate it at the moment. Instead, she took out her notebook and started searching for information.
The events that happened in the afternoon had been on her mind. If those houses were really under her name, then for so many years, she had felt that she didn’t want anything from him. She had even returned the money he had given her, considering it as repayment.
What did it all mean?
Eva opened a webpage and did a search. Some information could be found online, but just as the agent had said, she couldn’t find the more detailed things.
If she really wanted to know the dates and all the properties under her name, it seemed that she would have to find someone to help her investigate.
Thinking about this, Eva glanced at the time and then checked her father’s lawyer’s phone number.
“Ms. Hansen p>
When Luca received Eva’s call, he was very surprised. “Is there something wrong with your father p>
“It’s unrelated to him. I wanted to ask you if you have any reliable lawyers to recommend to me in America p>
“A reliable lawyer? I have a friend in America, but he’s currently involved in a lawsuit. Is it urgent, Ms. Hansen p>
“Not too urgent p>
“Then let me introduce my junior brother to you. If there’s anything Ms. Hansen wants to discuss with him, I’ll inform him in advance.” “Thank you, Luca p>
After hanging up the phone, Eva continued to search for information on her own. After about five minutes, her phone vibrated.
Eva answered the call.
“Hello, Ms. Hansen, this is Kevin p>
“Hello, Kevin p>
Eva could vaguely hear the sound of chatting and clinking glasses from his end. She guessed that he was probably busy and was about to speak when he said, “Ms. Hansen, shall we add each other on WhatsApp? Luca told me about your situation, and I know what you want to investigate. If you trust me, I can do the investigation for you and let you know the results. As for the payment, I will give you a quote later. Is that okay?” “Okay, thank you p>
Eva was quite satisfied with his approach, efficient and quick, without the need for her to say more.
After taking the job, Kevin hung up the phone and said to the others, “You guys keep going, I have work to do p>
“Do you still have work so late p>
“It’s a job Luca introduced to me, an big acquaintance of his. I can’t refuse it. I’ll leave first and have a drink with you another day p>
Kevin quickly left the table and then added Eva on WhatsApp with his phone. In a short while, Eva sent her personal information to him. When Kevin saw the name she sent, he froze in place.
Eva? This name p>
If he remembered correctly, when he helped his teacher with a property transfer before, the recipient of the transfer was p>
Call Eva!
To confirm, Kevin immediately stopped and took out his phone to call his own teacher.
