Chapter 0373 When that happens, she will reach out to you, Leo. Because she will be grabbing on straws, looking for comfort, she will reach out to you.
Maybe not to come back but to make a connection because you will be her only family. When that happens, I want you to act like everything is normal.
Can you do that?" I asked him, and he looked at me with red eyes.
"I can't promise you she will be alive if I find out where she is," he said, and I knew there was no point pushing it.
The man was ready to destroy her.
"Please, Leo, we know this has destroyed your life. It took everything from you, but we need you to act as if everything is the same when she
reaches out to you. If not, we won't catch all of them.

I do not mean that you shouldn't deal with her, but hold on a little until we catch that bastard," Devin pleaded, and he gradually nodded. I knew it was a difficult situation, but it was necessary.
"So what do we do about the names on that list?" Marcel asked, and that was an easy one.
"Declare them wanted to keep up appearances," I said, and he nodded.
We finished our meeting, and I returned to my office to handle
matters.
I had documents on the table I needed to study and sign before the inauguration. When I was through with my work, I searched for David.
I learned he was at the western Garden with his family.
That was the Garden Tamia and I loved to visit.
We would have to find a new spot because our activities there weren't child appropriate.
David was having a picnic with his children, but Nicole was nowhere in sight, so I figured she was with my mother.
"Hey," I called out to David, and the children stopped playing while he looked at me.
David stood up immediately and tried to bow his head, but I stopped him. J | I honestly felt like shit because our father wanted him to be lord had my mother not manipulated the situation.
"Where is Nicole?" I asked him with a smile on my face so he could relax.
"Went shopping with Lady Volkov," He said, referring to my mother. It was awkward.
"You know you can just say Stephanie," I said, and he nodded.
The children also seemed uncomfortable, and I realised I had to help them relax.

and rushed towards me.
I guess an invite was all they needed.
I played with them briefly while they greeted me and returned to play.
"Thank you for making them relax," David said while they walked away, and I nodded.
"How do you like it here, David?" asked him, and he smiled.
"It's a temporary arrangement, so I can't get comfortable," he confessed, and I shook my head.
"Volkov brothers have always lived together." I said, looking at him, "I want to say I do not mind you living here, David. I can give you a section to make your own," I said, and he was surprised.
"Won't that be too much?" He asked, and I shook my head.
"As a lord, you will have to stay here," I said, and his eyes widened.
"I know you do not want to have anything to do with power, but it is in your blood. I have decided I will make you lord. You can choose to be inactive if you like, but you have the title," I said, and he sighed and nodded.
"Very well, prepare because all the Lords will be named on my coronation day.
