Chapter 1093

Back in her room, it was nearing midnight.

Vivienne made a call to Thomas.

On the other end, Thomas had just finished up with his work. Hearing that the kids were alright, his tone softened, "Ma'am, we've stumbled upon something else."

Vivienne narrowed her eyes, "Something about Gideon's crew?"

Thomas responded heavily, "It seems Lansky has a bigger powerhouse backing him, otherwise, they wouldn't have been so bold this time."

"Their backers?" Vivienne frowned.

"Exactly!"

Thomas paused for a moment, "For years, someone has been secretly tracking Percival's whereabouts just like us. I suspect it's them, although I'm not sure what more they've found... But I'll keep an eye on them." After hanging up, Vivienne's gaze deepened.

She wanted to know more than anyone.

What kind of secret could have made Mr. Wolf disappear for five years?

If it was about that incident, why couldn't Mr. Wolf tell her?

Come the weekend.

Vivienne personally invited Connor.

Connor drove over, and Vivienne waited for him at the door.

He walked towards her with a smile, "I thought you'd find an excuse to turn me down. Didn't expect it to be this easy this time."

Vivienne didn't respond.

But a little head wearing a pink hat peeked out from behind her, smiling sweetly at Connor, "Mr. Boyd, Isaiah and I would like to come too. You don't mind, do you?" Connor's eyes flickered with surprise.

Vivienne, looking at Juliette who was intentionally hiding behind, explained helplessly, "The kids want to thank you for saving their lives. It's the weekend, so why not all go together?" Isaiah stepped out too, clearly showing his stance.

He wouldn't allow his mom to be alone with this man.

Connor's smile widened, "Sure, I know a family-friendly diner that gets great reviews. They'll love it."
