Chapter 157 Suspecting Mother

Sebastian felt like he'd been hit by lightning. He stood there, frozen in shock.

After a few seconds, he finally asked, "What do you mean?"

"Angie said she saw a woman with a black mole on her forehead when the child was taken. Your mom's nanny has the same mole. Sebastian, could Joey..."

Sebastian cut Benjamin off. "No, Joey is Connie and Darren's daughter, not Cordelia's. I'll look into this. Please, Mr. Blackwood, don't tell Joey yet."

Benjamin sighed in relief. "I hope your mom's not involved. Otherwise, you and Joey..."

He couldn't bear to think if Cordelia was behind the child's disappearance and possibly Connie's death. If true, Joey and Sebastian's mom would be enemies. How could they stay together? After hanging up, Sebastian lay on the couch.

Nanny Sarah White was just a middle-aged woman from the countryside; she couldn't have planned this. But Sebastian couldn't shake the feeling it was connected to his mom.

'Mom and Connie were best friends. Why would she take Connie's child? Could she be behind Connie's death too?' The thought sent chills down his spine.

His fists clenched. His relationship with Joey was just getting better, and now this. He needed the truth.

Sebastian grabbed his phone and called Dominic. "Arrest Sarah from the Old Mansion. I need to question her."

Dominic paused. "Mr. Winters, Sarah died in a car accident yesterday while grocery shopping."
