Henry said in a deep voice, "But Anna was sent abroad this morning."
Joe answered, "Jacqueline doesn't know. She thinks that Anna's still in the villa."
Henry's mobile phone suddenly rang when they were talking.
He picked it up and took a look.
It was an unfamiliar local number.
Without thinking about it, Henry answered, "Who is i t?"
Jacqueline's anxious questioning voice came from the phone. "Henry, where have you been?"
Henry lowered his eyelids. "I'm in the family residence."
Jacqueline asked more eagerly, "You're in the family residence? Is Anna there too?"
Henry glanced at Joe.
Joe looked down at his watch. “The person who sent Anna abroad told us in the afternoon that Roland had something to do and he wasn't at home, so they're waiting in a nearby hotel, but there’s no news for now."
Henry ordered, "Make a call and ask about it!"
Joe responded, took out his mobile phone, and walked out of the room.
Henry turned his attention back to the phone and then answered Jacqueline, "Not here."
"Not there?" Jacqueline’s voice became shaper." Anna's not at the family residence? Where did she go?”
Henry replied indifferently, "I've sent her abroad to her biological father."
There was a sudden silence on the phone. After two seconds, Jacqueline screamed, "Henry Lancaster, how can you send Anna to Roland? Do you know that Roland doesn’t like Anna at all? He won't take care of Anna." i
Henry sneered, "So what? If the biological father doesn't even take care of her, do you think that a stepfather who's divorced from you and has no blood relationship with you will take care of her?"
He wouldn't be raising Anna anymore.
He had poured a lot of fatherly love onto Anna and this love should belong to Theo. Now, he wanted to take it back for Theo.
Moreover, Anna bullied Theo, making Theo's autism worse. How could he accept Anna?
"Henry Lancaster, how can you be so heartless!" Jacqueline resented, "Even if Anna has no blood
relationship with you and isn't your biological daughter, don’t you have any feelings for her after living together for five years? How can you send Anna abroad? She's so young..."
Henry’s face was cold. "That's enough. Are you done? Let me tell you this, Jacqueline. I will no longer care about Anna. On the contrary, I'm kind enough to not send Anna to the orphanage.”
Jacqueline was stunned. "Send her to the orphanage?"
"Yes, Anna bullied my son. She's lucky that I didn't do anything to her."
"Son?" Jacqueline couldn’t understand. "What son? Where did your son come from?"
Henry said in a cold voice, "It's Theo, the child that Anna bullied. He's my biological son, so do you think I’d have feelings for Anna?"
Jacqueline's body shook with a roar in her head. "Theo ... He turned out to be your son..."
She knew that Henry only had one woman from beginning to end: Yvonne.
So it was absolutely impossible for another woman to give birth to him.
In other words, Yvonne was the one who gave birth to Theo, and Theo's mother was Yvonne!
It was Yvonne who reported her tax evasion and left her penniless. It was also Yvonne who kidnapped and intimidated Anna!
She had everything figured out! Jacqueline roared with her distorted face and there was ruthlessness in her roar.
It turned out that Yvonne was the one who targeted her from the beginning to the end. There was no other person.
Great. That was really great!
But before he got to the door, Sue knocked on the door in a hurry. "Sir, someone from the police station is here."
"Police station?" Henry and Joe looked at each other.
Joe shook his head. "I'm not sure why the policemen are here."
Henry said, "Open the door."
Joe stepped forward and opened the door.
Sue stood at the door with a man and a woman in police uniforms.
Henry looked at the two of them and said, "Please come in."
The two police officers went in behind Sue.
After entering the room, the female police officer took out a notebook, opened it, stood aside, and was prepared to take notes. Meanwhile, the male police officer stepped forward and stretched out his hand to Henry. "Hello, Mr. Lancaster."
"Hello." Henry shook his hand, and then said, "You guys are here so late. What's the matter?"
The male police officer didn’t answer immediately - h e took out a piece of folded paper from his pocket, opened it, and handed it over to Henry.
Henry glanced at it and found that it was a list with many names, including Jacqueline's.
Henry asked, squinting his eyes, "What does this mean?"
The male police officer replied, "I'm not sure if Mr. Lancaster still remembers the anti-drug incident that shocked the whole country a few years ago when our military and police officers arrested a large drug trafficking organization?"
Henry closed the list and replied faintly, "Yes, I know that the Lancaster Group also contributed to this, donating 10 million dollars of equipment to the military and police."
The male police officer nodded. "Yes, both the military and police are very thankful to Mr. Lancaster for this, but we're here this time for Mr. Lancaster and your wife. Do you know about your wife..."
Henry corrected him unhappily, "You mean ex-wife!"
The male police officer remembered today's news and coughed embarrassingly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Lancaster. Allow me to correct myself. How much do you know about your ex-wife, Mr. Lancaster?"
