Not One, But Two!

Chapter 163

Abigail was never someone who would be determined to get to the bottom of something, especially when Greg seemed to refuse to talk about it. Although she was curious, she suppressed her curiosity and said with a smile, "I have been so busy these days that I have no time to visit the kids. Are you free now? If you are, let's go and see them."

Greg was stunned at first. He darted a complex look at Abigail but inwardly sighed in relief.

There were certain things that he really didn't want to mention—for no special reason, but because he was worried that Abigail might misunderstand him. Now that she had switched the topic, he naturally felt relieved.

"Sure." Greg parked the car at the entrance of the villa. It was very quiet there.

"What's the time now? Do the kids usually go to bed this early?" Abigail was puzzled.

"Let's go inside and check them out."

As it had been an impromptu trip, they hadn't notified Mrs. Nova about their visit. It was pitch black in the house, which was rather worrying.

As a mother, Abigail naturally felt more anxious. Before the car had been parked properly, she alighted from the car even and jogged toward the door.

"Abigail, slow down. We have an excellent security system here, so they will be fine."

Despite the fact, Abigail couldn't help but feel worried.

She quickly let herself into the house. When she switched on the lights, she was astonished by what she saw. The next instant, anger welled up inside her.

"Alissa Kain!" Abigail growled through gritted teeth. Greg, who was following her from behind, felt as if his heart had skipped a beat. Feeling worried that Abigail might do something to his beloved daughter, he immediately grabbed her arm. "Stay calm. They are kids; it's only natural for them to be mischievous."

"Mischievous? You consider this as an act of mischief?"

Abigail stepped to one side, allowing Greg to see the living room. Sure enough, he was stunned by the sight as well, and his mouth was agape.

Mrs. Nova was seen being tied up on the floor with a rag stuffed in her mouth. Upon seeing Abigail and Greg, she whimpered, her eyes helpless and depressed.

The living room and other areas looked as though it had been ransacked by a burglar. Everything was everywhere, giving them no space to even place their feet. The first thing that came to Greg's mind was that there had been a burglar in the house.

He quickly pushed Abigail to the side and stepped forward to remove the rag in Mrs. Nova's mouth. "Was there a burglar in the house? Where are the kids? Did they say anything? How much do they demand? Did they leave any clues? Speak up!" he asked in a fluster. He was so anxious that sweat appeared on his forehead.
