Chapter158
“My mom said there’s a pink heart–shaped birthmark about the
size of a pinky finger on the upper left side of her chest. I don’t
know if it will grow bigger as she grows up. If anyone mentions
someone with a pink heart–shaped birthmark in that location in
the database, pull up the information and send someone to
investigate.”
Terrence clenched his long, slender fingers into a fist.
My head was buzzing a bit, and I hardly heard what Kyson said
afterwards.
Is that Bethany?
Terrence’s thin lips were tight and cold.
There was no sound for a while.
“Terrence, are you listening?”
“In.”
Kyson cleared his throat and said, “The previous Shared
Renewable Energy Project wasn’t meant to go against you, you
know. If you were the one doing the project, it would affect the
Chapter158
Duarte Group’s new energy market after it went online. I had
no choice but to do this, sorry. My mom doesn’t have much time
left, she misses her little sister. As her son, I want to fulfill her
wish before she passes away. Let’s take this opportunity to let
bygones be bygones.”
“I didn’t mean to blame you, it’s just about the profit of a project.”
We grew up together since we were kids, with complicated
family business and personal relationships. It just happened
suddenly, so I was a bit caught off guard.
If you don’t show any expression on your face, and let anyone
do whatever they want in the future, can you still do business?
“Okay, thanks, you really care about my little sister.”
“Um.”
“I’m hanging up now. You got hurt, don’t stay up late, rest early.”
The call ended, Terrence picked up the cigarette box on the
table, and lit another one.
The pale smoke drifted slowly from his thin lips and nostrils.
He was overthinking it.
The Duarte family’s little girl, if she hadn’t gone missing, would
Chapter158
have been twenty–six this year.
Bethany was twenty–seven years old.
As for birthmarks, it’s not surprising for two people to have
identical birthmarks.
He and Collin both had a light blue circular birthmark on their
arms.
There’s no way this dramatic thing could happen to him.
No way, absolutely not.
They were only one year apart in age, and that says it all.
The feeling of oppression in my chest, seems not so intense
anymore.
The next day.
Terrence opened the bedroom door and saw Bethany leaning
against the door of the second bedroom.
“What’s up?”
Bethany reached out her hand, rubbed her index and middle
fingers lightly, indicating she wanted her money.
Chapter158
200
Chasing me so closely?
Did the head of the McConnell Group really spend her money
like that?
Terrence walked out calmly, took the box containing thirty
million from the car.
Bethany reached out her hand.
Terrence squinted his cold eyes.
Bethany looked indifferent, with no hint of a smile on her
delicate features.
Somehow, Terrence couldn’t help but feel a little annoyed.
It’s obvious, she successfully caught his attention.
After the parent–child activity, she was like a different person.
First, I ran away from home.
Then Julio made a move on her.
It’s divorce again.
Then, it was revealed that she was a proud disciple of Ms.
Guzman.
Chapter158
I got 30 million from Kyson by selling paper–cutting.
He was always hot and cold with him.
Even Emery, who has always been loving, was indifferent.
I’m tired of hearing that.
He didn’t believe it at all.
Several times before, she had a reaction to him.
What did she want to do, after all?
Wanted his body, still want his heart?
Terrence’s elegance and gentleness also became a bit
melancholic.
Bethany saw that he didn’t move, so she just went up and tried
to take the box from his hands.
Terrence suddenly tightened his grip on the box and said in a
low voice, “Bethany!”
Bethany raised her eyelids and met Terrence’s slightly cold and
deep eyes.
Both of their hands were still gripping the handle of the box.
Chapter158
Bethany let go, her slender fingertips dancing in the air, her
beautiful eyes tinged with a hint of anger, “Terrence, are you
trying to break the contract on the first day?”
He didn’t intend to default.
Forget it, don’t bother with her so much, anyway he’s not going
to want her money.
Terrence pursed his lips and handed the money box to Bethany.
Bethany went to great lengths to play so many things, he really
wanted to see how far she could go.
It’s just one month, isn’t it?
He could have fun with her.
Bethany grabbed the cash box and walked straight out.
She didn’t expect Terrence to unfreeze her bank card.
Even if it thawed, she couldn’t put the money in.
