A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased by Her EX-Husband

Chapter 293

When Chloe saw her grandfather’s secretive expression, she knew that this matter might have touched on Sawle family’s

secret.

If she continued to ask, it would really be impolite.

She had always been a person who knew her limits. However, this matter concerned Joseph. She did not know why she had taken the lead. She actually asked, “Grandfather, is the relationship between Mr. Sawle and Elder Master very tense?”

“Is it… related to the kidnapping case when they were young?”

Rory’s pupils contracted as he stared at her in shock. “You… you know about the kidnapping?”

“I’m sorry, Grandfather. I didn’t mean to know.”

Chloe’s tongue was dry. After pondering for a moment, she said softly, “Previously, Mr. Sawle mentioned to me about his big brother. He said that he would take the initiative to tell me when he has time and would not hide anything from me.”

“At that time, I competed with him and did not want to hear him tell me the truth. However, I could not suppress my curiosity to wards him, so I…”

When Rory heard this, he saw that her little face was flushed red from embarrassment. The thin and timid little girl from before had returned, and the dark shadow that was hidden in her thick gray eyebrows suddenly vanished.

This was a good thing.

This meant that this girl was no longer as resistant to Joseph as before. She even began to feel curious about him. Their relationship had eased up!

“Raya, Joseph was willing to tell you his past. He really did not treat you as an outsider. He was really honest with you and sincere.”

Rory sighed faintly. Now that he thought about it, his heart was still very uncomfortable. “When my two grandsons were young, they were both kidnapped by the kidnappers. That group of kidnappers could be said to be notorious in the society. They sold drugs, killed people, robbed banks… They committed all kinds of crimes. The young masters of rich and powerful families who were kidnapped by them all over the country could not be counted with ten fingers.”

“I know. You are talking about the head of the underworld who was called ‘Ben’, Benicio Monson, right?”

Regarding Ben’s gang, Chloe had also heard about it. Freya told her.

Because Ben was once a lackey under Freya’s father. Later, he was dissatisfied, but he was too ambitious. He quit the organization and went out alone.

Back then, Ben was particularly rampant and arrogant. He directly shouted at the police to save up 10 billion before he could wash his hands.

When Ben was arrested eighteen years ago, all the major media outlets reported this big event that was celebrated all over the world. In the end, Ben could still laugh when faced with the camera!

Freya once said that the thing her father regretted the most in his life was that he did not kill Benicio and clean family.

“Yes, it’s him.”

“Back then, your Uncle Sawle and I, were clearly on high alert. However, unexpectedly, Benicio took advantage of the loophole and kidnapped my two grandsons!”

Chloe’s heart tightened as she listened. She asked in a low voice, “Then… what happened after wards?”

“After Eliseo and Joseph were captured by Benicio’s gang, they asked us for two billion of ransom. One billion for a child! The two billion from back then was equivalent to ten billion right now! But I didn’t even blink as I prepared the ransom. After all, nothing was more important than my grandson!”

“In the end, Benicio was very cunning and treacherous. He actually changed the location of the transaction time and time again! Teasing us! Eliseo and Joseph were detained by them for half a month, but we didn’t dare to call the police!”

Rory lowered her eyes and shook her head in pain. “Later, Joseph went through a lot of hardships to escape from that bandit’s nest covered in injuries. I really didn’t expect him to escape… He was only eleven years old back then!”

“He ran out alone?”

Chloe was extremely shocked. Her beautiful eyes were wide open. “How could he run out when he was so young and faced so many powerful kidnappers? Someone should have helped him, right?”

“Yes… It’s Eliseo.”
