Chapter 867 He Was Bewitched by That Woman
Chapter 867 He Was Bewitched by That Woman
When the driver decided to come back, he was prepared to accept any punishment.
He raised his head, “I found out that he did this all because he was bewitched by the woman he’s with.”
“How do you know?” Boyce asked.
The driver recalled that when his wife and son were arrested and when he first met Benjamin, the
woman talked all the time.
“I won’t lie.” The driver swore.
Boyce walked over, “Is it credible?”
He did not know Benjamin well. If he was bewitched by the woman, that would be easy to settle him.
However, if he had been lurking, then he was evil.
Matthew looked down at the ground. He hid his thoughts, ‘Benjamin has always been very down-to-
earth. If he’s waiting for the opportunity to fight for the family fortune, his lurking period is too long. He’s
old. What’s the purpose for him to grab the family fortune? He doesn’t have any children, so why does
he need so much money? Furthermore, he’s rich.’
‘He lives a carefree life these few years and it doesn’t seem that it’s fake.’
‘The change is more like an external cause. It doesn’t seem it had been planned for a long time. It
would be stupid if he had planned such a scheme after decades.’
“Do we still have time now?” Boyce asked.
Matthew looked at the driver and asked, “Have you been to their residence?”
He had heard that Benjamin had many residences. Since he did not like to contact them, he did not pay
much attention to them, and it was a waste of time to investigate them now.
The driver nodded hurriedly, trying to redeem his sins by good deeds, “I know. I can bring you there.”
Boyce questioned, “Do you think Benjamin will stay in the place that you know?”
“In their eyes, I am the one who betrayed Mr. Nelson, how would they expect me to come back? They
would have thought I had escaped. They would not think that I will bring you there,” The driver said.
Boyce thought that it was feasible and said to Matthew, “When it’s late at night, I’ll ask someone to go
and get Joshua back.”
“Boyce, you should arrange two people who are strong to go to the villa first.” He was worried about
Dolores and the children there, but if he let Dolores come back, she would know that Joshua was
missing and she would definitely be devastated. He deliberately asked her to go to the villa, trying to
hide it from her.
“Where is Joshua?” Jessica suddenly broke in.
She had been by Kevin’s side and came back later. Coral was with her. When they heard that Dolores
and the two children went to the villa, they cooperated among themselves. One of them went to the
villa to take care of them. One of them took care of them in the Flores family. She was not at home for
one day. The first thing she did after she came back was to see Joshua, but he was not there.
Jasmine bit her lip. There were tears in her eyes, “Jos…Joshua is...”
“I had asked someone to bring Joshua to the villa.” Matthew stood up and said, “I will also go there
later.”
‘I don’t wish to hide the truth intentionally, but if I tell the truth now, I worry that they can’t accept it.’
‘What Benjamin wants now is the family fortune. Before he gets it, I think he won’t harm Joshua, so
he’s safe for the time being.’
“Oh.” Jessica did not think much about it. She turned around and left. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Boyce said that he would make the arrangements and he brought Jasmine back too.
After arranging for everything and when it was late at night, the driver brought them to one of
Benjamin’s private residences. It was in a secluded place but the location was ideal.
Modern architecture was technologically advanced. So, the anti-theft system was also excellent. When
they had just stepped into the yard, the alarm rang.
Boyce had no choice but to bring his men out first.
It was quite impossible for them to sneak in as they had alerted him.
“There’s an anti-theft system here, but there aren’t many people so we can break into the house,” The
driver said. He was still somewhat confident in his ability.
Boyce said calmly, “We don’t know if Joshua is here, so if we break in like this, will we put him in
danger in case he’s not here? If he moves Joshua to another place, it will be more difficult for us to find
him.”
Matthew weighed the pros and cons in his mind and said, “Since we’ve already alerted him, we’ll make
the best of it.”
‘If Joshua is really here, we will definitely have attracted their attention. If Joshua is here, then they will
worry that we will find him and they will definitely move him to another place. In this way, we just need
to ask someone to guard here and we will be able to find Joshua. If Joshua is not here, they will be
more alert.’
“I’ll keep watch here,” Boyce said.
Right now, he could only feel relieved if Boyce was the one who guarded the place.
“I’ll stay too.” The driver was eager to redeem his sins by good deeds.
Matthew did not say anything. He was sort of acquiescing. He turned around and walked towards the
car.
He got into the car and started the car engine. When he was about to drive away, the phone in his
pocket rang. It was Armand who called. He said that Dolores had a fever.
She had been lying since she went back home. Theresa noticed that something was wrong and then
realised that she had a fever.
Matthew said, “I got it.”
He put down his phone and turned the car around to drive towards the villa.
There were no street lights on the road and he relied only on the headlights to illuminate the road. It
took him a long time to reach the villa.
There was someone standing at the doorway. They were the men Boyce had arranged for. Matthew
entered the house. Armand was in the living room. When he saw Matthew, he stood up from the sofa,
“She is upstairs. Theresa had given her the medicine.”
Matthew nodded and asked, “Where are the two children?”
“Theresa had asked them to go to sleep,” Armand replied.
“It’s late now, you shall rest too.” After saying that, he walked upstairs.
He pushed open the door of the bedroom. It was dark. The lights were not switched on. There was no
moon tonight. He could not see anything. So, he switched on the light.
Dolores was not woken up by the sound of switching on the light.
He walked to the bedside and reached out his hand to touch her forehead. It was still a bit hot, probably
because she had just taken her medicine not long ago.
He sat on the edge of the bed and looked at her.
She was haggard in just a few days. If she knew that Joshua was missing, it would be even worse for
her.
He took out his phone and sent a message to Boyce, asking him to arrange for someone to keep an
eye on Benjamin and the woman by his side.
It did not matter whether he could find him by tomorrow night or not, he would do his best.
