Chapter 454

Meanwhile, after sending Cameron back, Elijah was just about to leave when he bumped into Daniel, who had just returned.

"Have you found him?" he asked.

Daniel walked to the kitchen and poured out a glass of water. He threw his head back and downed the entire glass before saying, "No, but my men are on the lookout. He won't be able to leave Highside."

Elijah nodded. "What about William?"

"He hasn't returned yet. I heard he took Jethro away, though."

Hearing that, Elijah was silent for a bit. "Now that things are almost resolved, does he still intend to keep Leanna in the dark?"

Daniel put down his glass and drawled, "Miss McKinney had also asked me a similar question, but I think he won't."

"Is it because of Louis?"

"Perhaps that's part of the reason." Daniel made a rational guess.

"What about the other parts?"

"Someone who has been considered dead for many years suddenly makes an appearance, and it's in the form of another person. No one can get over that so easily."

William wouldn't have stayed here for long if it weren't for Leanna. When everything was over, he would leave immediately.

Lloyd would truly disappear from the face of this planet.

Elijah frowned. "But you also know that things are different now. Leanna has a right to know; we can't keep hiding it from her."

"I know that, but what use is there in knowing? Are you able to convince him?"

Elijah pursed his lips and said no more. Even though William appeared to be a composed and polite gentleman, they all knew that he had put in a tremendous effort for the sake of revenge. There were even some actions of his that could be safely described as cruel.

The Lloyd in the past had already died in the explosion.

Daniel stated, "As for all those things you mentioned, we can't be hasty. We haven't even caught Leroy at this point, so let's take things one at a time."

Acknowledging the suggestion, Elijah nodded. "Then I'll head back first."

"Sure."

After Elijah left, Cameron came out of his room. "Uncle Daniel."

Daniel pinched his cheek. "What's up?"

Cameron looked up at him. "Did I avenge my parents today?"

"Of course. You did very well." Daniel thought for a bit before adding, "You've done everything you should, so you don't have to think about revenge anymore. Go back to school and continue your studies."

"Then, when will he be caught?" The child seemed to have his doubts.

"Someday, for sure. You have to believe that justice will be served eventually, be it in a decade or two decades. As long as he had committed a crime, he would receive due punishment."

"I know. Uncle William came back for revenge too."

Daniel chuckled. "You know that too?"

Cameron gave a humph. "I hear you guys talk about it, so, of course, I know."

"Now that you mention it, there's a score I have yet to settle with you. Did you look for Zoe's number on my phone? And you even met up with her?"

Cameron took two steps backward. "I'm suddenly feeling sleepy now. Goodnight, Uncle Daniel!"

With that, he turned around and dashed back into his bedroom.

Daniel let out a laugh as he watched Cameron go, then closed the door and left.

After getting into the car, Daniel held the steering wheel with one hand while another was placed on the car window. He gazed silently in front of him, and his thoughts were unknown.

He originally came to Highside to complete this plan, so now that things were wrapping up, logically speaking, he should be going back now. However, after staying here for a few months, he suddenly felt reluctant to leave.

Daniel licked his lower lip. As if a thought had occurred to him, he put on his seatbelt and drove forward.

…

After watching the news, Zoe was about to go to sleep when she suddenly heard the doorbell ring.

I didn't order any takeout, so who could it be at this hour?

Zoe walked over and looked at the display screen at the door, not expecting the person to be Daniel.

She opened the door just a crack and showed only half of her small face. "What's your business here?"

Seeing her behavior, Daniel said incredulously, "Do you have to behave like that? I'm not a criminal."

"Can't say for sure. After all, no decent man would knock on a single woman's door in the middle of the night."

Daniel fell silent for a while. "It's good to be on guard when you're living alone, but you don't have to do that if you're with me."

Zoe said, "Just state your business. I'm about to go to sleep."

"Just… Can't you let me in to talk?"

She felt that if she had time to waste with him, she could bear with whatever troublesome matter he had brought to her. Hence, she decisively opened the door. "Come in, then."

"Thank you."

Zoe sat on the couch and grabbed a pillow to hug as she said slowly, "I watched the news today. Don't tell me you came all the way here just to say that Leroy is exposed, and we no longer have to put up the act? Even if you don't tell me that, I know—"

Daniel interrupted her. "It's not that."
