Wooing My Ex-Wife by Mr. Adeel

Chapter 486 His Instincts

As Charles sat on the guest room’s bed, a sense of worry gnawed his heart.

He knew Craig far too well. The man was paranoid and an overthinker. He knew that Craig was not going to believe him so easily

With that thought in mind, he sent Cedrick a message.

The next morning, at the Newton residence’s dining room, everyone was silently having their breakfast.

Only the sounds of cutlery against crockery filled the huge dining room.

After what seemed like forever, Craig said, “Charles, since you’re back, I’ll be announcing to the public that you’re still alive. I’ll hold a welcome party for you.”

Charles furrowed his brows and replied, “But Craig, if Cedrick finds out about this, he’ll surely try to capture me and send me back to the secret interrogation room to torture me.”

Upon noticing Charles’ nervousness, Craig let down his guard a little.

“Don’t leave the Newton residence before the welcome party. I’ll guarantee your safety.”

“But, Craig…”

“No.” Craig firmly said. “You told me that you were going to heed my orders. Have you already forgotten about that?”

At that, Charles had no choice but to reply, “All right.”

“Come to the study two hours later. I have something I want you to do.”

“Okay.”

Silence returned to the dining room.

After the meal, Jasmine went back to the Jenson family’s Harrick Villa. She was forced to go and check on Jennifer.

Meanwhile, Lucas bitterly went to the Federal Bureau of Investigation to work. He had been the errand boy for the past two days, and he was about to collapse from exhaustion. His grudge against Craig only became even more intense.

Meanwhile, Craig felt better, and he could somewhat walk on his own, albeit slowly.

Thus, he went to the study to deal with Newton Group’s quarterly financial statement.

A few minutes later, the bodyguard knocked on the room door.
