Looking at the handsome man with dark skin and a rather ‘unruly‘ personality, Denise frowned. “So
you’re Nigel’s uncle?”
Nigel’s uncle had to be either related to Joshua or Luna…but this man’s temperament was far different
from them both!
“Yes.” Sean curled up his lips and smiled. He pointed at the seat in front of him and hinted to Denise to
sit.
Once Denise sat down, he waved his hand at a waiter to order a beverage for Denise. After the
beverage was served, he looked up and took a good look at Denise before talking, “Nigel asked me to
come to go look for Riley with you. Where is she now?”
Denise picked up the hot beverage and felt the warmth radiating from the glass. “She’s in my brother’s
mansion in the countryside now. I think my brother has gone to help Joshua and is not in the mansion
now, but…”
She looked at Sean. “There are people guarding the mansion. Do you…”
After taking a good look at Sean’s thin figure, she frowned. “Don’t you have any helper? If you are
alone… I don’t think there’s any way to save her.”
It was not because she did not believe in him, but Sean was just too thin. Steven knew how important
Riley was because he knew she was Thomas and Yannie’s daughter. He had to look after Riley very
well just because he wanted to stay on Thomas‘ good side. Therefore, the people he arranged to guard
the mansion must be very good with their job.
Could such a thin, fragile–looking person like Sean be able to rescue Riley? She doubted it.
“I alone am enough.” He curled up his lips and smiled. Before he stood up, he picked up coffee and
finished the remaining. “Let’s go. Lead the way please.”
Denise furrowed her brow in disbelief. “It’s really just you only?”
“Of course.” He curled up his lips and walked to the counter to pay his check. After that, he went
outside.
Denise’s eyebrows furrowed. Despite being full of doubts, she still followed behind him.
“Mister, it’s not that I don’t believe in you…” As she got into Sean’s car after leaving the cafe, she could
not help but clarify herself with a frown, “It’s just that those people my brother hired are not simple,
so…”
“So you still have no faith in me.” Sean raised his brow and smiled. He glanced at Denise. “I’m not as
bad as you think.”
Denise bit her lips at what Sean said. “I—”
“It’s fine,” Sean cut her off. “So, where should I go?”
After a moment of silence, Denise got out of the car and walked over to the driver’s side. “I’ll drive.”
“Are you sure?” Sean looked at the slender woman and thought about his SUV. “This car isn’t like the
normal car you drive.”
It was Denise‘s turn to taste doubt from the other party.
She sneered and opened the door to the driver‘s seat. “I‘ve driven this type of car numerous times.
Step out.”
Sean smiled and got down when he saw her sweet face suddenly look so domineering. “I rented this
car. If you damage it, I won‘t be able to pay for it.”
“Don‘t worry. I can afford it,” Denise replied.
By the time Denise finished talking, Sean was leaning back in the passenger seat with a cigarette in his
mouth. “If you take down your family, then you‘ll no longer be the young miss of the Hughes family.
Without that identity, can you still afford it?”
