Chapter 269: We Are Married, Sean’s Situation
Cecelia’s voice was somewhat cold!
So was her gaze!
She had no mood for pleasantries with Chuck Campbell, only wanting to know Sean’s whereabouts and the intentions of Chuck Campbell and his people as soon as possible.
“Miss Moore, you know me?”
Chuck Campbell met Cecelia’s icy gaze, his smile on his face not diminishing. He withdrew his extended right hand and said, “That’s even better.”
“Since Miss Moore is so straightforward, I’ll get straight to the point.”
“I have heard…”NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
“Miss Moore and Mr. Sean Mason are engaged, and you have a daughter named Phyllis.”
“Is that correct?”
Cecelia’s pupils constricted slightly!
These people were indeed well-prepared!
“No, that’s not right!”
Cecelia shook her head, correcting, “Not just engaged!”
“We are married!”
In Cecelia’s heart, she had completely accepted Sean as her husband, her man, and had even consummated their marriage. She was determined to spend the rest of her life with Sean, facing the trials and tribulations that lay ahead together!
As for the marriage certificate that had been torn in half by Marcia, it didn’t matter at all!
“Oh?”
Chuck Campbell raised an eyebrow, seemingly surprised by Cecelia’s assertiveness. He shrugged and smiled, “It seems my information was incorrect, Miss Moore. Please forgive me.”
“We came here this time…”
“Actually!”
“We wanted to talk to Miss Moore about your husband.”
Following Prince Ashby’s orders, Chuck Campbell and the others had secretly rushed to Hilshire, deliberately avoiding Prince Roscoe’s attention. One reason was the fear of Prince Roscoe’s people causing trouble!
Secondly, if Sean was still alive, they didn’t want this news to reach his ears!
Now!
It had been precisely three days since Sean’s battle with Fergus Archer at the cliff. During these three days, Prince Ashby and Fergus Archer had searched the area near the cliff thoroughly but had never found any trace of Sean!
Not to mention Sean, they hadn’t even found a single scale of the Black-scaled Python, as if it had evaporated from the face of the earth!
Before this!
After Sean had arrived in the capital, he had stayed at the Jade Restaurant, under the watchful eye of Prince Ashby, who had been monitoring him constantly. Prince Ashby had been able to handle the situation calmly!
However, a missing and possibly still alive Sean was a huge threat. Who knew when and where he would suddenly appear and attack someone?
After all, Sean, like Fergus Archer, was an expert with one foot in the Bright Realm!
To deal with Fergus Archer, even with all the fighters under Prince Ashby’s command, they would still need to rely on the traps and ambushes within Prince Ashby’s palace to have absolute confidence!
Dealing with Sean was the same!
So!
In recent days, both Prince Ashby and Gerard had not left the palace gates for fear of being ambushed by Sean!
Even Prince Ashby was afraid, let alone Chuck Campbell?
That’s why Chuck Campbell had come quietly and hoped to leave quietly, avoiding any conflict with Cecelia, not revealing his whereabouts, and taking Cecelia and Phyllis back to the capital as stealthily as possible!
That’s why he was so polite to Cecelia!
Even with four Complete Stage old men by his side, who could take Cecelia down at any time, he hadn’t rushed to be aggressive!
“My husband?”
Cecelia’s heart trembled slightly, but she controlled her emotions well, not showing any signs of worry or anxiety. Instead, she raised an eyebrow and asked calmly, “Are my husband and Mr. Campbell good friends?”
“Since when does his business require Mr. Campbell to come and speak personally?”
Why had Sean disappeared? Was it related to Prince Ashby? Did Chuck Campbell know?
Cecelia didn’t know any of these!
So, now completely in the dark, she wouldn’t reveal that Sean had been missing for three days. Instead, she pretended to be nonchalant while trying to gauge Chuck Campbell’s intentions!
“Hehe!”
Chuck Campbell laughed and asked, “Are you sure, Miss Moore?”
“As far as I know, Mr. Mason hasn’t been in contact with Miss Moore for at least the past three days, right?”
As he spoke, he seemed confident!
Like Cecelia, Chuck Campbell was testing the waters!
He wanted to see if Sean had secretly contacted Cecelia during the three days since his disappearance, and whether Cecelia could still contact Sean. This was crucial for Chuck Campbell!
If!
Cecelia could contact Sean at any time, then Chuck Campbell and the others would be in danger!
“You!”
Cecelia’s pupils suddenly constricted!
Three days!
The fact that Chuck Campbell could pinpoint the exact time of Sean’s disappearance proved that he knew the reason for it!
“What does our marital business have to do with you?”
The look of panic on Cecelia’s face flashed briefly. Although she tried to hide it, she couldn’t escape Chuck Campbell’s keen eyes!
Moreover!
It wasn’t just Cecelia!
Standing beside Cecelia was Cornelia, and behind Cecelia were the eight members of Bloody Wolf. Their expressions were changing to varying degrees, and the dark energy within the members surged even more!
All of this!
Chuck Campbell saw it all!
Chuck Campbell’s mouth curled into a brighter smile, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Sean had not contacted Cecelia, and Cecelia could not contact Sean. For Chuck Campbell, this was absolutely great news!
So!
Without any hesitation, Chuck Campbell took out his phone and said, “It seems Miss Moore has a prejudice against me?”
“Actually!”
“We are friends of Mr. Mason, here on the orders of Prince Ashby!”
“This video…”
“Miss Moore might be interested, why not take a look.”
With that!
Chuck Campbell found a video on his phone, played it, and then placed the phone on the desk in front of him, pushing it towards Cecelia.
The sound of fighting came from the phone!
And…
A low roar!
“What…”
“What is this!”
Cecelia and Cornelia glanced down, and the next moment, both of their faces changed dramatically!
The members of Bloody Wolf also gathered around!
On the phone!
It was the scene of Sean fighting Fergus Archer and the black-scaled python on the cliff. This video was taken by Gerard himself at the time, to be shown to Prince Ashby!
Chuck Campbell and the others came to Hilshire to deceive Cecelia’s trust and make her willingly follow them to the capital. This video was necessary, so they copied it to their own phones!
“Son of a b****!!!”
The video had only played halfway when the members of Bloody Wolf were furious!
As fighters in dark energy, the Bloody Wolf members could tell at a glance that Sean was at a disadvantage in the battle against Fergus Archer, and the situation was dire!
Moreover!
Fergus Archer had the help of an incredibly powerful black-scaled python!
“Sean, he…”
Cecelia’s already pale face turned even paler, and her mind was filled with thunderous noise as her body trembled violently. She swayed a few times and almost fainted on the spot!
Luckily, Cornelia reacted quickly and supported Cecelia in time!
Then she turned to Chuck Campbell and the others, gritting her teeth and asking, “What have you done to Sean?”
