CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

Chapter 1541

Shane was the one who sent the Rivers family away. NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

He was incredibly powerful, so it wasn't hard for him to hide their whereabouts at all.

Stanley wasn't nearly as powerful as Shane, so there was no way he'd be able to find someone that the latter had hidden away.

That was why he was befuddled upon seeing the address Sean had given him.

After all, Sean wasn't as powerful as Shane, but the former had always been based abroad. Shane's influence was weaker abroad, and that was why he never caught his cousin.

Even so, Stanley couldn't wrap his head around the fact that Sean managed to find out about the Rivers family's whereabouts.

“About that, it's really not that hard.” There was a glint in Sean's eyes as he adjusted his glasses. “That's because I planted someone close to him. Everyone works for profit, so as long as I'm paying them better than he is, some of them wouldn't be able to resist the temptation and would be more than happy to work for me in secret.”

“I see.” Stanley curled the corner of his lips into a mocking smile. “Just as I expected, you're more cunning than he is.”

“You flatter me! In truth, he's not necessarily beneath me when it comes to being cunning. It's just that he can't be bothered to resort to dirty tricks, and that's why he's losing to me.”

However, Sean failed to mention that he wouldn't be his cousin's match if the latter truly wanted to pull some tricks against him.

In the past, their grandfather noted that the cousins were both excellent boys, but Sean always fared slightly worse than Shane in both intellect and capability.

There was one thing he was just as good as his cousin at, and that was trickery.

Shane was open and straightforward in everything he did. He disliked pulling tricks and thought those were cheap moves.

Sean, on the other hand, didn't share those sentiments. He'd do anything to win, and that was the difference between him and his cousin.

“All right, I'm not in the mood to find out about the battles between you two. Have someone book me a flight ticket. I'm flying over there right now,” demanded Stanley, his face turning grim as he pondered the situation.

Now that he knew where the Rivers family was, he couldn't waste another minute.

He had to get there and find out for himself, whether or not Joyce had truly forgotten him.

Meanwhile, Sean whipped out his phone and dialed a number, instructing the person on the other end of the line to book a flight ticket for Stanley.

In a matter of minutes, the ticket was booked, and Stanley left for the airport right away.

At this point, Natalie and Joyce were unaware that he had already located the Rivers family and was already on his way to them.

Stanley strode out of the airport a couple of hours later and hailed a taxi.

As the taxi took him closer to his destination, his lips curled into a spine-chilling grin.

I'm coming for you, Joyce!

At the same time, Joyce jolted awake and sat up in her bed. Her face was pale, and she was drenched in sweat.

Evidently, she had a nightmare.

In her dream, there was a man in a white coat. He was holding a scalpel in his hand while she was tied to an operating table. The man then brought the scalpel down to her stomach and made an incision, retrieving the child in her stomach.

The dream was terrifying and jostled her out of her slumber. Even when she knew it wasn't real, she couldn't calm herself down, and her heart continued thumping wildly in her chest. Joyce felt overwhelmed by an unknown fear, and she couldn't help but curl her body into a fetal position.

Although she didn't see the man's face, she knew that it was none other than Stanley.

After all, Joyce was carrying his baby, and he was the only one who would want to get rid of the baby.

Moreover, he was a doctor, and he matched the description of the man in her dream down to a tee.

It's him—I'm sure of it.

Joyce didn't know why she would dream of him all of a sudden.

I've been sleeping and eating well ever since I forgot about him, but I can't help feeling a bad premonition after the dream.
