"Are you so eager to go home and see your daddy? When are you so dependent on him?"

Noah smiled shyly at that question, and her eyes were squinted into little crescents. "I miss Daddy a lot and depend on you too, Mom. I love you and Daddy the most. I want our family to be together."

Katherine's heart was warmed by the little girl's words. Back at the Cornells, she had never experienced the warmth and love of being part of a complete family. After what she had been through, she didn't want her daughter to go through the same thing. Immediately, she hooked her lips into a gentle smile. "Okay. We'll wait until Mr. Blatt comes back. Once he returns and everything turns out well, we can go home."

"That's great." The little girl beamed and nodded.

After some time, David returned, but he did not appear happy and emanated a gloomy aura.

"How was it?" When Katherine saw him, she had a bad premonition.

He poured himself a cup of water and drank it in one go as if he were trying to put out the fire inside him. However, when David started speaking, he couldn't suppress his anger and frowned. "I thought of this matter too simply! Emmanuel Gray isn't an ordinary person. He's truly ruthless! He even put Corey under house arrest!"

Katherine was shocked to hear that and asked, "House arrest? What happened?"

"When I got there, I didn't see anyone besides Emmanuel. So, I told him I wanted to check on Corey, but Emmanuel refused, claiming that Corey had recovered and was resting. Ultimately, I had a hunch that something wasn't right, so I had someone look into it. Then, I discovered Emmanuel had placed Corey under house arrest after bringing him home. Moreover, he had also placed Corey's mother under house arrest. It's like he's afraid she would let Corey escape or something. How could someone like that call himself a father? That is completely insane!"

her face had turned gloomy, and her clear eyes suddenly had a glimmer of coldness. "Someone who could poison his own son couldn't be an ordinary person, so it's reasonable that he would do something like

That person supporting the company might want to make Emmanuel a henchman, so Corey might have considered this possibility and gone home to confront Emmanuel. Perhaps, Corey found out something, or he might not have discovered the whole truth, but no matter which it is, Emmanuel wouldn't take such a risk. Therefore, he would want to
