“Oh right, I have to thank this person for this incident.” Caroline looked around and saw Vivian at the back of the crowd. “This is Vivian. She opened the door and distracted the enemy. That’s how I found the chance to knock him down.”
Vivian subconsciously wanted to retort. Caroline had already subdued this villain before she entered the room. Why did Caroline say that? However, she received Caroline’s disapproving look, so she could only swallow her words.
Mr. Hall glanced at Vivian’s name tag and said, “There are no foreign guests recently. The south side is not open. Why are you here?”
Vivian quickly explained, “Miss Julie’s cat suddenly ran out of the room. I’m here to look for the cat. I was assigned to the first, second, and third areas of the south side, so I happened to encounter this.”
“Isn’t this nonsense?” Mr. Hall rebuked. For a cat, these public servants were running around and making such a big commotion.
Seeing that he had lost his temper, the scene fell silent, and everyone’s breathing became lighter.
Caroline looked at Mr. Hall, who was busy, Mrs. Hall, who was frowning and silent, and Vivian, who was lowering her head to try to hide her presence. She felt that this was quite interesting.
At that moment, Joline, who had just received the news, rushed over. She was relieved to see that Caroline was fine. She turned to look at the Hall couple, but when she saw a familiar figure standing in front of them, she suddenly froze and said uncertainly, “Vivian?”
Vivian looked up and saw her. A dark look flashed in her eyes, then she squeezed out a smile and greeted her respectfully. “Aunt Joline, long time no see.”
“Aunt?” Caroline’s eyes widened. Things were getting more interesting.
“Her last name is Smith,” Joline said calmly. “She’s Robert’s first daughter from his first marriage.”
“If you hadn’t mentioned this name, I think we would have been happier to meet again.” Vivian’s face showed obvious disgust.
“I’m sorry, I’ll be more careful next time.” Joline nodded at her, avoiding the topic.
In front of Joline, who was his elder, Mr. Hall’s attitude was much more restrained than before.
“Because it involves the security of the residence, I think they’re more suitable for us to interrogate. If we find out who the mastermind is, we will share the relevant information with the Anderson family.”
“This is what we should do.” Although Joline didn’t know what exactly happened, she knew what could be touched and what couldn’t be touched. So when she heard Mr. Hall’s words, she nodded and said, “With you taking over, we can save a lot of effort and also gain some intimidation.”
Mr. Hall grinned silently. If he, as the highest governor, was really a deterrent, then these things wouldn’t have happened one after another.
However, Mr. Hall was relieved that the Anderson family had handed over the person so easily. At least it proved that even if there was a traitor in the
Anderson family, they were not willing to fall out with him on the surface.
Of course, if they could find out that the Anderson family was really innocent, that would be the best result.
On the other side, Mrs. Hall was also whispering to Caroline. “He has such a bad temper. When he gets stubborn, no one can do anything to him.”
Caroline shook her head. “1 think it’s pretty good. At least, it’s very suitable for him now.”
Seeing that Caroline didn’t mind at all, Mrs. Hall heaved a sigh of relief. In fact, she had vaguely sensed that her husband’s attitude toward Caroline was different, but she didn’t realize that the ‘difference’ was so deep.
Mrs. Hall was inclined to believe Caroline because what happened at the tea garden that day had left a deep impression on her.
Other than that, as both of them were women, she felt Caroline’s pride and conceit more than once during their conversation.
Mrs. Hall didn’t think that such a strong and proud Caroline would be easily ordered around to do such low-level work.
But she and her husband were of the same body, and they had to be on the same front, so after Mr. Hall stood up, she had to follow in his footsteps.
In Mrs. Hall’s eyes, although Caroline was very capable, she was still an 18 -year-old girl. She was afraid that Caroline would be disappointed by their attitude, so she said a few more words..
