Reborn as Mr.CEO's Fat Wife-Chapter 581: Attend Kiyoko’s Wedding
Chapter 581: Chapter 581: Attend Kiyoko’s Wedding
In the evening, Juliet Rosa sent a video for Brandon Piers to see Teddy. The little guy was waving his little hands, sometimes calling out for mom, and sometimes "goose, goose, goose."
Brandon looked at the little guy’s excited face, a bit angry. To him, it was true that anyone who fed him was his mother.
No, even without feeding him, he considered them his mother.
They had only met a few times, and he was already calling her mom. He didn’t understand what charm that woman from R Nation had.
"Teddy really likes Miss Kiyoko." After talking about Teddy’s situation today, Juliet summarized.
Aunt Claudia felt slightly better in the evening. Hearing Juliet say this, she nodded along, "She’s a good girl, pretty and kind-hearted, with beautiful hair just like our Abigail."
"Daddy, mommy... hug!" Teddy didn’t know which word he heard, but with the pacifier in his mouth, his eyelids were already fighting. He mumbled for mom and dad to hug.
Brandon helplessly shook his head. He had no interest in this woman, who had thick hair just like Abigail. They had already covered a good part of the island. In two days, they could finish exploring the entire island.
Maybe they would see Abigail tomorrow, and Teddy could see his mom. Then he wouldn’t need to call other women mom.
Brandon felt quite unsatisfied with his son calling another woman mom.
"Mr. Piers, will we find Abigail soon?" After talking about Teddy, Aunt Claudia, due to her illness, sat a bit far away and hoarsely asked.
"We already have some information. If everything goes well, we should find her tomorrow," Brandon replied.
Aunt Claudia immediately became overjoyed, "That’s great, that’s great."
She finished speaking with tears of excitement in her eyes, not even realizing that she had met Abigail today.
Brandon was very happy too. He had confirmed that Jeffrey Foster had appeared on this island. Finding him was just a matter of time.
After hanging up the video call, Brandon stayed in the excitement of almost finding Abigail. He didn’t know that his son had already been in Abigail’s arms for two days.
Even more unexpected, the smooth progress hit a bottleneck on the third day.
"No."
"No."
"No..."
After several confirmations, everyone gave the same answer, no.
The area Brandon was responsible for also had no results.
"Is it possible that we missed something? Search again." Brandon, unwilling to give up, bit his teeth and said.
Over twenty days later.
They had combed the entire island more than ten times but still hadn’t found anyone.
Alex looked at the unshaven Mr. Piers and couldn’t help but advise, "We can be sure now that Jeffrey Foster and the young lady are no longer on the island."
"Could it be that he detected us and escaped first?" Brandon couldn’t think of any other possibilities. They were sure that Jeffrey had been on this island, and he was with a woman who looked remarkably like Abigail. Since they couldn’t find them now, either they missed them, or he detected them and hid or left early.
But after so many searches, missing spots seemed almost impossible. The greatest possibility was that he had already escaped.
"Our people at the dock can confirm that they haven’t seen Jeffrey Foster," Alex answered.
Brandon fell silent. If they hadn’t left and were still on the island, did they miss something?
Or had Jeffrey actually left the island first, and they arrived too late?
Either case made Brandon’s mood very bad.
"Mr. Piers, maybe you should go back first..." Alex advised. These days, they had searched the island thoroughly. Mr. Piers hadn’t rested for a moment. freēwēbnovel.com
Brandon said nothing, sinking into immense depression.
Seeing this, Alex added, "Mr. Piers, Teddy is still waiting for you. Why don’t you leave this to others? Since he came to the island, there must be records of when he left the island. We can trace them back and always find some clues."
Phew!
After a long time, Brandon let out a deep breath.
He hadn’t video-called Teddy for several days. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to, but he didn’t dare.
When he came, he was confident he would find Abigail. But nearly a month had passed, and there was no trace of Abigail.
After a long while, Brandon nodded reluctantly.
He came with Teddy not to leave him to Aunt Claudia and the subordinates.
Alex secretly sighed in relief, seeing this.
Having made the decision, Brandon did not dawdle. He left the island that night.
The next morning, he finally returned to Durin.
He had stayed on the island for nearly a month, almost trapping himself there.
Breathing the less humid air, he realized he was still alive. But when he arrived at the somewhat unfamiliar villa, Brandon paused confusedly, looking at the colorful balloons, especially the festive ones on the villa next door. He looked puzzled at Alex.
Alex knew more than him, "It’s like this. Miss Kiyoko next door wants to hold a wedding ceremony with her husband in the chapel here."
Brandon nodded. He had no interest in other people’s weddings.
But once inside the villa, Brandon felt the atmosphere was off, "Where are the people?"
"What’s going on?" Alex noticed, quickly calling the people next door. Upstairs, a loud coughing sound was heard.
Brandon strode to the third floor and pushed open a door, seeing Aunt Claudia lying in bed. She tried to get up but ended up coughing because she moved too fast.
"Aunt Claudia, why aren’t you better yet? Where are Juliet and Teddy?" Brandon asked worriedly, looking at Aunt Claudia’s pale face.
"I’m fine. Juliet took Teddy to attend Kiyoko’s wedding. I wanted to go too, but I don’t feel well. So I didn’t join the fun. You’re back, where is Abigail?" Aunt Claudia finished, eagerly looking behind Brandon.
However, she only saw Alex and the maid coming up after him.
Aunt Claudia already guessed the result. That day, she listened to Mr. Piers’s words and was in a great mood. But after waiting two days without news, she speculated the result was not good. Her slightly recovering body felt worse, vaguely thinking she had seen Abigail. However, waking up felt like it was a dream.
Seeing no Abigail behind Mr. Piers at this moment didn’t surprise her, only made her sad.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
"Don’t worry, I will definitely find Abigail. Alex, take Aunt Claudia to the hospital," Brandon knew Aunt Claudia’s temperament, not giving her a chance to refuse.
"I’m fine, just..."
"Alex." Aunt Claudia wanted to refuse but was cut off by Brandon.
Without hesitation, Alex supported Aunt Claudia and walked her out.
After Alex took Aunt Claudia to the hospital, he remembered that Juliet took Teddy to attend the wedding next door. Brandon frowned. He had no interest in attending other people’s weddings. But after not seeing his son for a month, even with his hardened heart, he felt a bit eager.
Brandon went downstairs, returned to his room, took a quick shower, shaved his long-unshaven beard, and looked at his exhausted self in the mirror. After a moment of thought, he changed into formal attire, inquired about the chapel’s location, and walked over alone.
