Chapter 1979
That way they could use the excuse of visiting their pants or keeping them company, to have affairs
Barely had Rosalynn left when Mike and Calvin rounded up the kids for home
Are Mommy and Daddy not home from work yet?” Ivy asked, looking around for her parents and then querying
Laura
Laura was not smart, but she knew how to read a room.
She had a feeling that the peace that had recently settled over the house was about to be shattered.
“No, they just called to say they won’t be home for dinner, so you guys should eat and then go do your homework
and go to bed. Don’t wait up, Laura quickly replied, “I made your favonte types of cookies, they’re fresh from the
oven! Come, let’s go to the dining room!”
Seeing Laura’s anxious demeanor, Calvin became suspicious, so he sent a message to Rosalynn.e2

Rosalynn called back almost immediately Calvin quickly answered
“Calvin, I have to go out and take care of something. I’ll probably be back late. Please keep an eye on Cory and Ivy
and make sure they get to bed early” “Alright”
Rosalynn’s voice didn’t sound unusual
Calvin assumed that Laura must have messed up something again and didn’t think much of it.
The car soon hit the highway, racing towards its destination.
Rosalynn didn’t know exactly where Maddie’s old house was located, only that Maddie was born and raised outside
of H City, and that she used to visit that house from time to time when her grandparents were still alive. After her
grandparents passed away, Maddie never went back.
What was Wayne doing rushing there first thing in the morning?
And why did he end up at the police station?
Why call Ableson over at this time?
Ableson left for the old house about ten minutes before Rosalynn.
He was cried sick because he didn’t know what had happened, he raced all the way to the destination
By the time he arrived, it was already dark
For the past few days, the weather had been turning bad in the evenings, with rain often pouring down without
warning Ableson found an umbrella in the car, and from the trunk, he grabbed Wayne’s spare clothes, and hurried
into the police station.
The police station in the small town was tiny
There were not many people there either.
Ableson, in his crisp business suit, obviously didn’t look like a local
The officer on duty knew right away why he was there and led him inside.
After a while, Ableson saw Wayne, sitting on a bench, his clothes filthy and his appearance disheveled.

Wayne looked up when he heard his name.
A moment later, Wayne went to change his clothes
The duty officer complained to Ableson, “Your boss is quite a character. He’d rather sit here in soaking wet clothes
than change into the ones we prepared for him” “What happened?” Ableson asked in a deep voice, “How did my
boss end up looking like this?”
He intervened in a domestic violence situation,” the officer replied, “He saw someone abusing a child and stepped
in to stop it. He’s definitely in the night, but the person he beat up is currently in the hospital and it’s going to be a
tricky situation”
“Huh?” Ableson felt like he was listening to a foreign language, “So why is he all wet?”
“We dont know We asked him but he wouldn’t talk, the officer replied
At that moment, Wayne emerged, having changed his clothes
Ableson immediately handed over his business card, “If there’s any compensation or anything, just contact me
