Chapter 1051: Chapter 1054: Richard Coldwell Has Seen Through Everything Chapter 1051: Chapter 1054: Richard Coldwell Has Seen Through Everything Mason Scott thought about it and felt that this alone wouldn't be enough to make Larry Scott back down.
So he turned to Tania Scott, who hadn't made a sound, and said, “Tania, your father has done such a thing; he has wronged you. Go and wake your mother up quickly!”

Larry brought Lily into the study room and switched on the lights.
The room was instantly bright.
It was too dark outside before, and Lily had not noticed anything particular about Larry holding her hand.
It was only now, with the light on, that she subconsciously looked down and realized… Larry, holding her left hand, was missing a pinky finger.
The entire pinky finger of his left hand had been neatly severed from the base.
“Did I scare you?” Larry withdrew his hand, his gaze at her complex and tumultuous.
It held a mixture of agitation and fear.
Fear that she would be disappointed in him.
“No,” Lily shook her head. If it had been the delicate, greenhouse-raised her from before, she might have been frightened.
But now, having been through so much, she wasn't afraid of Larry at all.
“I'm really glad you're not scared,” Larry barely smiled, reading the sincerity in Lily's eyes, not mere courtesy.
This made him feel even better about his niece.
“Lily, your uncle has a lot to tell you about what happened four years ago…”
“Sorry, I'm really in a hurry right now, I don't have time to talk about anything from four years ago,” Lily quickly cut off Larry's words.
Indeed, she was in a rush, but also because she now had some resistance to events that happened four years ago.
“The reason I was in such a hurry to see you tonight is that Abbie and Lulu are missing. I… I don't know anyone else in B City, so I was hoping you could help me find them.”
“What, Abbie and Lulu are missing!?” Larry, who was somewhat discouraged that Lily was unwilling to discuss the past with him, suddenly showed the same concern as Lily.
“Don't panic, tell me exactly what happened. Trust me, even if it's not just B City but anywhere in Eastonia, your uncle will find them for you!”
Larry had recently been promoted, and he had elite troops stationed throughout Eastonia at his disposal.
“Alright, here's what happened…”

Meanwhile, as Lily and Larry were talking, Richard Coldwell, who had been out for a long time, finally found out where Abbie and Lulu were.
“This Manor belongs to the main Lucas family.”
“The main family?” Richard Coldwell's cold blue eyes flashed with a hint of intrigue, “Are you sure it's the main Lucas family?”
“Certain. Mr. Coldwell… and also, we found out that after they brought in a personal doctor, I think one of the children must have been hurt.”
Hearing his subordinate's report, a dark viciousness swept through Richard Coldwell's navy deep eyes.
Aidan Lucas always developed his business in A City, and his family never crossed paths with the Coldwells.
Why did he suddenly come to B City to kidnap his people? What was his intention?
Just as Richard Coldwell was about to rally his forces for a late-night rescue, he heard his subordinate speak hesitantly, “Also, Mr. Coldwell, there's something I find a bit strange, and I don't know… um…”
“Speak.”
“It's like this. Aside from calling a family doctor, the Lucas estate also sent people out to buy a lot of snacks and drinks. All kinds that kids like.”
“Oh, right, they also bought materials for making cakes, a whole bunch of sweets. Those things are clearly intended for children. If they were really kidnapping for ransom, they wouldn't be treating the two kids so well, would they? Mr. Coldwell, what do you think…”
Richard Coldwell listened to his subordinate, and the icy look in his blue eyes suddenly dissipated.
He curled his lips, showing a rare interest, “Call off your men, we don't need to monitor them for now. Also, get me a photograph of Aidan Lucas.”
An interesting idea suddenly popped into Richard Coldwell's head.
