Chapter 418 Started Her Own Investigation

Day Forty-Eight...

~~*****~~

[ At Xu Family Mansion... ]

Abigail visited Old Man Xu in his house. After talking to Nathan last night, she found out that Old Man Xu and Nathan argued because of Monica.

Old Man Xu's butler welcomed her, guiding her to the pool area. The patriarch was having his nap in the pool area when Abigail arrived. Old Man Xu didn't expect to see Abigail today.New n0vel chapters are published on

"Miss Scarlett..." Old Man Xu put down his teacup, motioning Abigail to sit down on the opposite chair.

"Chairman Xu..." Abigail politely greeted him and slightly bowed her head before sitting down.

"What brought you here? Where's my son and my grandson?" Old Man Xu looked around, searching for Nathan and Ethan.

"I came alone. I have something to ask you, Chairman Xu. Ethan and Nathan are not with me. Nathan didn't know that I am visiting you today."

Old Man Xu felt disappointed and disheartened. "Nathan is still mad at me. He is avoiding me. He even hid my grandson from me. What a merciless and inconsiderate son I have." Old Man Xu breathed sharply.

Abigail just smiled awkwardly. She didn't know how she would console the old man. Nathan didn't tell her that Old Man Xu hired someone to kill Monica.

"Your son is also stubborn. But just give him time. You and Nathan will reconcile once he cools down."

"Your son is handsome, wealthy, and powerful. He is a complete package. I can't understand why Monica would think of cheating on him. Was she crazy or dumb?" Abigail asked Old Man Xu.

'Maybe because she doesn't like the fact... my son is involved with a mafia organization.' Old Man Xu thought to himself. He recalled that Monica disappeared after knowing Nathan's identity as the leader of the Syphiruz Mafia. But she came back a few years later, bringing their son, Ethan.

"Chairman Xu... if she indeed cheated on Nate... speculation comes to my mind. What if Monica's man is not just an ordinary man? He is also as powerful as Nathan. Imagine... they managed to hide their traces..." Abigail shared her opinion regarding this matter.

Old Man Xu sucked his teeth and shook his head. "Why didn't I think about that before? You have a point."

"By the way, Chairman Xu, have you fixed your problem with Chairman Carlsen? He is the one who blackmailed you right? If you don't mind... May I know how he threatened you?" Abigail was digging for more information.

"Sigh!" Old Man Xu exhaled deeply. "He is the reason why Nathan found out my secret. The threat has something to do with what I did to Monica..." The old man gazed down. He couldn't tell Abigail that he tried killing Monica.

"I wanted to separate Monica from my son... so I did something evil... that's why Nathan got mad at me after learning what I did."

"Chairman Maximilian Carlsen... he looks suspicious to me. Have you investigated him further? Does he know anything about Monica? What if Monica's man is related to Maximilian Carlsen?"

Old Man Xu was taken aback for a moment. He didn't expect that Abigail was smart enough to realize some possible connections between Monica's man, Monica, and Chairman Carlsen. This was just speculation. But this was not entirely impossible.

"As of now, I'm still investigating some dirt on Maximilian Carlsen. But I will also investigate the people who have connections with him. Thank you for giving me this idea, Miss Scarlett. This is quite helpful. I still need to get even at Carlsen for trying to destroy my relationship with my son. He was the one who stirred a conflict between us."

"Don't worry, Chairman Xu. I can help with this." Abigail offered him some help. But the old man just laughed it off.

"No need, Abi. I can do it myself. Just focus on taking care of my son and my grandson. Just make them happy. It's now time for them to move on and forget about Monica." Old Man Xu stood up and held Abigail's shoulder. He meant his words. At first, he didn't like her. But now, he was rooting for her and Nathan.

Abigail could only sigh in defeat. She could tell that Old Man Xu was doubting her skill. Little did he know, Abigail (Phantomflake) was an expert in this field.

Abigail just continued asking Old Man Xu about Monica. She got the name and address of the hotel, comparing it to the information shared with her by Kathleen.
